Solutions to killing Catholic school kids in a violent world

Solutions to killing Catholic school kids in a violent world

 “Countless kids killed every day..God stop the pandemic of arms around the world”  Leo XiV regarding the Annunciation Stained Glass killer

“The evil that men do lives after them; the good is oft interred with their bones” ~~ William Shakespeare’s play “Julius Caesar,” spoken by Marc Antony during his funeral oration for Caesar. This line reflects the idea that people’s wrongdoings are often remembered long after their good deeds are forgotten.

We have to be men and women of hope” spoke Bishop Hebner in the wake of the senseless killing at one of his diocesan schools.

“I wish I could have thrown my body in the path of the bullets to save the kids” Annunciation parish priest, paraphrased emotionally but the same sentiment of EVERY teacher or leader in a school shooting over the last 100 years.

~~

In the past, national Media used to NOT ID to glorify killers, but other than this Annunciation Stained Glass killer and his~her ilk, no one likes seeing or hearing of Catholic school kids killed for being in church or class.   None that I know.  And AS USUAL, we don’t want to hear of another killing in the future.   Time to go deep on the preparation without doing Pontius Pilates handwashing.

Note that the tragedy of Wednesday Aug 27, 2025’s 20 21 victims in Minneapolis, including the deaths of a 6 and 8 year old, is slightly overshadowed by all the heroics:

The student who was covered by his good friend who took a shotgun blast to his back. “A 10-year-old fifth grader, Weston H., told reporters in Minneapolis that his classmate, Victor, shielded him from gunfire during the shooting at Annunciation Catholic School.” 

 First time I heard this brave kid Weston, I’ll never forget how he sounded so much like a famous Alex. You may have noticed, Weston is a voice doppleganger for 8 yr old Alex Pruitt of Home Alone 3 Alex Real Name HOME ALONE 3 (Alex D. Linz, Olek Krupa, Chicago, played by Alex Linz in Home Alone 3.  Alex confronted a gun toting ‘elite’ gang of four and staved them off with ingenuity to save a critical ASIC military electronics chip, help his seasoned lady neighbor, saved  and the nation. Recall, he alerted the cops that his neighbor was in need of medical attenton.

Lessons to be learned!   I won’t post a picture of this fine young man but read the words from Weston:

“My friend Victor, like, saved me though. ‘Cause he laid on top of me. But he got hit,”  “I was super scared for him. But I think now he’s OK…” “I hope you’re okay and I’m praying for you,” he said in a message to his friend.  

What wise words!  Not to mention, stories like the Minneapolis ER nurse who risked extra radiation dosing by stayed with, accompanied a young girl getting an MRI who was scared and alone.  The teachers and first responders who showed their ability to respond and help.   Also, kudos to the training the Annunciation kids received, though not in the church, they adapted: to respond by getting under the pews saving more lives.

We love the stories of heroics that come out of tragedies like this.  Our best response, as in the past is: it could have been worse.  Like you, I’m a bit tired of  ‘Gee, only two kids died.  It could have been 116, the number of sprayed bullets.”   But, I truly believe it could have been and WILL be BETTER! IF we wake up and smell the goodness.

Facts of Academic Life:  IF we could lay down our fiefdoms, our preferences on education and Church life for a moment: I don’t mean to upset Cardinal McElroy, who has been successfully relocated to the DC area.  Thankfully, for him, it is a MUCH safer neighborhood now that the national guard is there and we’ve had no murders of black kids by other black gang kids for 14 15  xx days…and counting. Law and order works when it is allowed to and this season of DC peace could last a lot longer if…

Frankly, we southern california homeschoolers (our family is an intergenerational Catholic homeschooling family in year 42 so far) wish the Cardinal all the best where he should fit in well…DC.   But recall, if you can, His Excellency Cardinal McElroy bizarre action:  He banned Catholic homeschoolers from using San Diego diocese parish school facilities last Sept 2024.   Important?  Maybe.  The stats don’t lie not everyone is a fan of Catholic homeschooling, which is more a permitted choice, but a lifestyle more and more are chosing.

Although the new DCardinal didn’t like the unwashed Catholic homeschoolers darkening “his” parish school rooms in San Diego:

                        There have been NO shootings at homeschooling events, homes or cooperatives in 50+ years including when parishes allow their homeschooling families the right to use their own parish’s facilities that they contribute to.

Frankly the closest homeschooler death recently, that I know of, would have been caused by water not bullets…the story for another time.

And yes, Cardinal, some homeschooled kids do go barefoot, on purpose when they are running around at a park day with other Catholic home-based educated children after a coop or separate day of classes. Grass and bare feet go well together when you are young or haven’t learned that being childlike is still an adult attribute.

But, parishes these days have many many cultures segregated only by mass times and interests; there are so many “communities” built into our active Catholic parishes.    And some of the most engaged and productive are part of the homeschool movement in this unfolding Eucharistic Renaissance.  Did you know a higher percentage of priest answered vocations (and consecrated religious women) come out of engaged Catholic homeschool “movements” and “communities”, ie families across the US? I see this after 33+ years of three different parish staffing experiences(DRE, Youth Dir etc).

Why no shootings?   The why is not as important as being honest with ourselves even at the USCCB level and looking for reasonable, even undeniably simple solutions to Catholic school kids being at-risk, let alone abused or killed.

One area is the need to address more than guns and dysphorics:  Huge hat tip to Drew Mariani, who had child crime expert Richard Wistoki on his Relevant Radio show 8/13/25 to discuss sextortion and online safety (10:53).  Topics included: monitoring kids online (23:51), monitoring apps (33:01), and healing (36:51). Caller: kids shouldn’t have smartphones (42:37), this last is a no brainer today. Here are the invaluable links…   https://relevantradio.com/2025/08/online-safety-for-kids/       Additional:  https://takeitdown.ncmec.org/        and    https://www.besureconsulting.com/

===============================

Suggestion #1: Go to your strengths in the laity.  IF you haven’t hardened your church or school, maybe tomorrow is a good day to start.

Get parish adults, vets, officers and trained adults, to be there for the kids. This is nothing new:  But FIRST you must take down the “This is a gun free zone” signs around Chicago etc. and our schools and churches; like honey on innocents, this attracts the unhinged future killers. And it is the most imbecilic signage: last weekend 70 Chicagoans were shot, and 11 diesd, mainly black and young;  DC, no black gangbanger teens killed any black teen with the National Guard presence

Put up, including at city limits, signs that say a deterrent: “At our school, only three of our employees have weapons to stop you.  We recommend you go after a softer target because you probably won’t leave our campus alive.”    Or something similar.  Why?  The uncertainty principal works among unhinged cowards, especially the recent species of trans manifesto going after the innocent. I am not bearing false witness against those poor trans killers.

  I looked into it: when the transgender estrogenized Tennessee boygirl realized her first, her prime target was too dangerous FOR HER, she went to and shot up a softer school target. 

On March 27, 2023, a mass shooting occurred at The Covenant School, a Presbyterian Church in America parochial elementary school in the Green Hills neighborhood of Nashville, Tennessee, when 28-year-old Aiden Hale (born Audrey Elizabeth Hale).  By the way, the media refused to release her “manifesto” at the time.

 Yes these unhinged killers are motivated, but they want quantity and the ease of the kill: hardened buildings stop the mentally challenged future killers.

Then DO what the sign says:

  1. Train and arm a certain number of (invite in and hire a security specialist to help plan) ) ;post training, concealed carry permit holder teachers and security plainclothes or uniformed; fandom seeking, manifesto wielding seeking killers are generally cowards and will not attempt to make the headlines when their chance for success is limited.

The media, as usual, is NOT our friend on this: notice they stopped broadcasting killers’ names but they are back to glorifying the demonic shooters. Just odd; you’d think general media would grow a conscience and THINK before they glorify but you can’t change human nature’s “If it bleeds, it leads”.

Reasonable Objection to guns in school go back decades and ever present:  “I am a teacher and I don’t want to kill another human being; I will NOT carry a gun”.

This is both a common and understandable, yet sad reaction.  The reason no homeschool shootings is the teacher, mom, dad, grandparent, is closest to the kids. Both familial, by blood and location.  Yet, it is the same in our parish schools, the teacher or her aid are within 20 feet of every child in their classroom.

If any body could respond the quickest, it is the teacher, the person who “in loco parentis” under CCC2223, is the adult with primary responsibility temporarily assigned to her or him.  The school AND specifically the teacher.   Note that the parents HIRE the school to educate their children, choosing not to homeschool or use public schooling.

As the Annunciation school experience proved, yet again, valor showed up…but at what cost?

Annunciation school teachers, similar to Secret Service agents, rushed to protect their students and so many more would have died without the safe environment trainingfirst baptist church texas and quick response by people who care for the kids.

TGKiller, didn’t give a damn how many kids he took out. In fact, TGKiller stated, he was “obsessed with killing children” He was armed to get at least half; but when guys with a gun showed up, he was gone.   116 bullets discharged and 2 dead victims, one dead killer.

And like lemmings, the liberal minions are out, the ammophobiacs, gun haters not so anonymous are out pushing for yet another “assault automatic weapon” to be banned.   Reality is: TGKiller only had semiauutomatic, no Tommy guns like in gangland Chicago yesteryear.  Yet no discussion of the assault trans~dysphoric groomed former Annunciation killer’s being banned from our society and Church ministries.

Even the DOJustice is looking at banning transgendered people from owning guns, but that won’t satisfy people who want America emptied of ALL weapons.  Well, except knives used at planned parenthood.

Church shootups are NOT new.  Click back 7 years to First Baptist; 26 churchgoers are quickly dead and then:  next door Texan neighbor Stephen Willeford stepped up.

“The armed civilian who used his assault rifle (author’s note: standard AR-15; no, AR does NOT stand for Assault Rifle #15) to stop Sunday’s mass murder of 26 Texas churchgoers has been hailed, rightly, as a hero, but Stephen Willeford is hardly unique. A number of armed American citizens have also used their firearms to stop or limit mass killings.

The former National Rifle Association instructor who lives next door to the First Baptist Church of Sutherland Spring, Texas, grabbed his AR-15-style rifle after hearing the gunfire and went over to investigate. Confronting the shooter, Devin Kelley, Willeford shot him in the leg and torso before Kelley dropped his weapon and fled the scene in his SUV.”

~~~

As horrific as Baptist Killer K’s rampage was, it could have been much worse if it wasn’t for Stephen Willeford.  You’ve heard it before, some have ignored it but bad guys lose, once the good guys show up with a gun or other defensive devices.  Willeford wouunded the bad boy and the killer soon suicided off the planet  just like the Annuciation Stained Glass window shooter.  Don’t hate me for pointing this out, but Hitler proved suicide is IN vogue and a huge part of the arsenal of the deranged.  Ask Eva Brauh and his dog.

Mr. Willeford: “I thank my God, my Lord, protected me and gave me the skills to do what needed to be done,” Willeford told local media on Monday. “I just wish I could have gotten there faster.”

Thus, faster is one of the KEYs!    Every minute counts for lives saved.

If Annunciation school had just one armed adult, maybe the two dead could have been zero.   ‘Whatif’ 2020 hindsight is a silly game, but it points the obvious.  The six minute typical response time from OFF site rescuers, insures more dead.  Shorten response time and more will live.  Simple supply and demand econ.  The Church frowns on the Death Penalty but why do we insure it will be done to our precious kids by a scumbag, maybe due to dysphoric chemicals, parental mistakes like in stained glass TGKiller’s case this time or ?

Maybe a BETTER Solution to this dilemma: NON lethal defense!   it works great!

Human nature 101: Majority of teachers will always refuse to conceal carry, even though they are the best line of defense.  I believe the biggest concern they have is they are teachers, not cops and not trained.  Frankly, the elephant in the room is they would hesitate, maybe not even target an obvious, armed threat even though his or her teacher actions would save lives.   WE HAVE SOLVED THIS!!

THEY DON’T WANT TO KILL A FELLOW HUMAN BEING EVEN IF THAT “HUMAN” WANTS TO KILL HIM/HER.   This is a part of decent peoples’ nature.

Bishops & other educational professionals: here’s a better Answer:   Non Lethal ‘Byrna’!!

Go the tactical launcher route.  A Byrna or similar. Never heard of a Byrna projectile launcher?   The hand launcher does not kill the perp, it incapacitates him or her until help arrives.  The 40 classroom kids stay alive, teacher’s a hero and no one dies. 

Realize that bullets are designed to penetrate humans, they contain their propulsion (gun powder) within the bullet casing/’rounds’ inside the gun.  A Byrna or other mfg. laucher uses highly compressed CO2 cartridges to “launch” super hard (NOT pointy!) spheres which incapacitate but don’t kill. a 250 pounder, let alone a scrawny 180 pound Annunciation kid killer, is down for 30 minutes until law enforcement arrives.

Results? The next Stained Glass Killer will go down, get arrested, arraigned and then possibly gets let go by some leftist loon judge because, after all he/she/it didn’t kill any of  the kids in his manifesto.  And besides, (s)he didn’t take the testosterone or estrogenic drugs today so he can plead mental illness.

Why?  BECAUSE HE OR SHE, WHICHEVER THEIR BIRTH SEX IS, IS DYSPHORIC AND MENTALLY ILL.

  Well the last legal part needs some work as our Constitutional Republic wakes up, but at least kids are saved.

Bishops: I want to help.  I know you do as well.  The current bishop of Minneapolis is Archbishop Bernard Hebda, who has served as the Archbishop of Saint Paul and Minneapolis since 2016…he definitely has his hands full and has shown brightly in his first words of hope.  So, why not look and go a little deeper!

The Byrna Alternative.   The Challenge:

the first bishop/cardinal who asks for it, will receive a hand held projectile launcher manufactured in Tennessee by Byrna, a gift from my wife and I. With a supply of .68 inch diameter projectiles (we can’t say or use bullets, caliber and guns  because it scares people, remember.  Byrna rounds are “round” spherical and not pointy) accompanying it. 

These Byrna type devices are not lethal guns, and are legal and safe (unlike abortion that never was either safe tho “legal” in satan’s eyes) in all 50 states; this will cost the Beckman Ranch family $500, which might be better used for their 11 kids’ needs.  But if ONE bishop or cardinal has the tools, maybe he can impress other prelates to do the same in their own diocese.   Protecting kids is NOT the job of the USCCB, it is a LOCAL concern, a local responsibility at the parish level that need to address it directly as if kids’ lives are important.

Why am I so passionate about keeping Catholic kids alive; it’s more than I have 11 kids and supervised average 300+ kids in our various programs.  I am just tired of the constant pontificating over situations that can be solved relatively simply IF we play “adults” and define terms without biases.  Non lethal could become the solution to both gunfearing teachers and the need to stop a perp immediately if not sooner.

FYI:  there are over 9,900 schools nationally already armed at various levels, practicing serious not nominal protection of their students; none of these recent shootings happened at schools with armed personnel. 

These successful schools don’t fear guns but they do fear dying children under their watch.  They are trained, ready as can be and no Chicago “gun free zone” welcome perps signs to be seen.

Honestly, it is cute we can have coffee and talk about the causes: smart phones too early for teens.  Too much street violence.  Too much violent video games, interactive or single.  Too many guns in our homes. The child was too tightly toilet trained and not loved at birth.  His parents let him be whatever he or she wanted to be including changing his name to a girl’s type and go trans.   Like Wednesday’s Annunciation Stained Glass Killer.  Have you read his manifesto yet? It’s insane…like the psychotropic laden druggie he was from Big Pharma.

Let’s put together a diocesan committee of subcommittees to review our next steps. Let’s reconvene in 2030 or later or get real istic!   OR:  ACT NOW like lives depend on action.  They do!

The CAUSES don’t matter one bit, WHILE the Son of Stained Glass Killer shows up at your school office loaded for bear and asks where most of the kids are located.   Single access is now commonly practiced, but it works as part of a whole researched plan;  and yet still isn’t the best.

Knock yourself out digging around for the causes from decades ago: IT JUST DOESN’T MATTER when Catholic students are being Mass Shot at Mass.   But NOW is the TIME to think and plan; you have ‘hardened’ the school & church, with concealed carry skilled adults, Byrnas or 22s, teachers or grandparents, security, or all of the above.

However, this next is critical: One big area is the link between demonic toxic masculinity fueled ‘transsexual community’ “awareness” and  nurturing potential killers.  BAsically, ‘trans industry tyranny, from the vulerable child thr levels of trans indoctrination at the classroom, school clubs, peer pressure tied to the non existent passive trans “community”

Suggestion#2   NOW is the time to get serious about transgenderism and promoting sexual shapeshifting.

STOP blind acceptance for trans identifying boys and girls, the dysphoric development IN our Catholic schools and parish ministries can be deadly.  It should be handled with prayer and adult wisdom not wishful thinking.

This century, we Church folks have excelled at various  “unforced errors”. This latest juxtaposition just happened where in too many of our nation’s Catholic high schools, even grammar, where pro life concepts and clubs are not wanted, while the growth of LGBTqXYZ clubs, and inherent acceptance, is pandemic.

‘CASE IN POINT:  On the Relevant Radio Patrick Madrid show, adjacent to the stained glass killer shock unfolding, a high school freshman student called in, let’s name him John Paul.

The palpable irony is he is in a Southern California Catholic high school.  His activities director told this incoming freshman that having a pro life club would not work at the school.  Yet, one look at the school’s club roster would reveal it already has something called a LGBTqXYZ club.   Probably just mild mannered discussion about….  are we nuts?  No need to answer that!

As a Church, are we STILL comfortable just calling it “same sex attraction” and herding our Catholic high schoolers into their lunchtime LBGTqXYZ community clubs, bishops?  According to canon law, the bishop is and has the primary role in guiding faith formation within his ordinary.

Yet, we the laity, as well, are we willing to BE the adults, SEEK the TRUTH and SPEAK the TRUTH yet?   Can we consider reforming how we deal with and look at this modern outgrowth of “recreating” gender fluidics and human sexuality starting with psycho-social evolutions like toxic masculinity and shepherding kids to think on their own from 6 years old onward?

God did NOT ask a parents’ LGBTq support ministry to consult on His creation of male and female, with their unique qualities and designed in roles.   There is an orchestrated transgender industrial social complex in high gear and God has called parents and Peter’s apostolic descendants to stand up for TRUTH and protect the little children.

Please note, bishops, priests, school leadership, parents: my whole life is Catholic education related.

My 10 siblings and I had 126 years of OC  Catholic parish elementary and high  (St Anthony Claret, Servite & Rosary Hi) in the 60s-80s.  As well, beautiful Donna and I, with our 11 kids, have had 132 cumulative years of Catholic homeschooling, with our kids, as they grew up; it was unusual, but they were  “immersed” in the sacramental programs at the three parishes I/we served on staff.

This last part should interest you, because the magisterium and catechism is clear about who is responsible for our children’s educational future.  Apparently, I as the “principal” of our school have some bonafides to share this, being a type  of 50 year ‘time capsule’. Truth is, I was conceived in Chicago three years before our new excellent and timely Pope Leo Xiii XiV though born in Pasadena, CA and still, I remain at age 73 active in SoCal Catholic ministries.

In fact, Donna and I had always worked alongside the parish schools’ principals and teachers, especially when we were DREs; we used the Anaheim classrooms that SD’s Cardinal McElroy was overly provincial about and worked hard NOT to leave a student desk in the wrong place for Wed mornings.  We knew the PARISH owned the classrooms but we were guests as public school religious ed offspring.

Put simply, IF I was the high school president/principal and found out how the Love Boat Julie activities director handled new student John Paul, I would have her or him fired or at least reassigned.   There are so many active teens and young adults involved in school and parish ProLife clubs, where the real violence is outed and dealt with; plus the young Catholics are active in helping as peer counselors

It’s time to be honest too!   Word to the wise, leaders!:

  1.  There is NO trans or LGBTqXYZ “community”.  Today, with the left’s compulsive misuse of the English language, ‘Community’ is used so easily but it means “Common unity”.    Factually, the closest “gay” (radicals love to ruin good English words) community, ie homosexual, is now an Biblical Archeology site: Sodom and Gomorrah.  All the men clamoring at Lot’s door for the two Angels inside Lot’s home were a community of guys wanting to have sex with what they perceived as men.   Today we call it “same sex attraction” acted out en masse!   The angels “blinded” the reprobates but we cannot remain “blinded” to what is happening in this arena.  It’s one thing, and should continue, to help young adults and teens work through their dysphoric same sex attraction; but God forbid, we continue this hellish push to create exercise zones at lunchtime and during class time about how to be homosexual, how to be trans.   Never mentioned is how the girls devoid of breasts and reproductive organs often will contract depression, amplified dysphoria and commit suicide a decade later. Where will the horribly misnamed “gender affirming surgeons”?   On their yachts out at sea.
  2. OUR CHILDREN ARE NOT REMADE GUINEA PIGS OF DR MENGELE, WHO EXPERIMENTED ON TWINS WITH HIENOUS SURGERIES UNDER HITLER’S TUTELAGE These demonic gender affirming careless mutilators need to be shut down YESTERDAY.   Look in the mirror, leaders.   Better, go to a school board meeting.
  3. Calling this amorphous grouping a “trans community” is nuts, it shows our immature ‘adult’ ignorance about our kids who need help with their dysphoria and moral compasses. NOT moral relativistic grooming to become death doctor fodder.  Pre- and pubescence IS a time of sorting out, confusion, etc. that REQUIRES their parents and adults to BE adults:  to give good advice from their well~formed consciences.    NOT let dysphoric teachers and/or their like-minded teachers’ aides making clinical and psychological determinants for under age, minor children.   It’s like relying on rapists to counsel rape victims because they’ve “been there” and actually are still violating women.  Worse is when parents succumb and trans biased teachers think they are doing the family and kid a favor by hooking her up with “counselors” who extract the kid and put in group homes to accelerate the mutilation process.   Even now, in California, there is
  4. Get to your local or county school board meetings.  Yes, they are public and impact, especially in California, the future public indoctrination system.   I have a evolving script below because this IS a critical area we Catholic educators, parents and leaders can have REAL impact.

Read the unwinding news!! The Annunciation stained glass killer was a former student, his parents encouraged his dysphoria, mom helped him change his name to Robin and probably provided “lethal” puberty or sex reassignment drugs for their future stained glass killer son. AND he was IN the school as a student at onetime. 

The opponent is laughing all the way to his rotten lair;  you might know, “Opponent” is the translation of the Hebrewized Persian word for satan. (Hat tip Fr Simon)

Actually how can you have community when there is ZERO fundamental agreement among these LGetc “leaders”, while we toss our precious kids to the liar’s den!   In fact, with 100 manufactured genders, the ‘veteran’ LGBs disagree with the t’s and q’s acceptability to be a part of their “community”, there is NO common unity among the LGBTq crowd.   And the population is NOT in the millions, as the fraud media pushes; better understand, the whole process is built ON a lie.

It remains OUTRAGEOUS how we adopt the death cultures’ vocabulary!?  In southern Orange County, below the Y interchange, south county Catholic high Love Boat Julie put the full names of the clubs on the activities board at the high school so the teens can “choose?” False.  Eliminating an excellent club successful on many high school and college campuses, stacks the desk for ignoring life issues critical in today’s political and real world climate.  And giving a nod to the letters people, who hide their motives and ideology in a few initials.

Define the initials:  LGBTq is alphabet soup for Lesbian (women having sex with other women), Homosexuals (man2man); or Gay which used to be part of the Flintstones show theme song and Christmas’ Joy to the World.  BiSexual, oft missed, means guys and girls prefer having sex wantonly and whomever they are near in proximity.   The death culture, as JPtheGreat Pope Saint calls it, loves to synthesize new words (like Gay) or misappropriate God’s and old symbols (like the Rainbow).

I believe a  few of you have been to a public school board meeting. If you haven’t, this month is a good one to start, no matter WHICH month.  By law, you have two to three minutes to speak your mind in the comments section of each district’s monthly meetings.  These can be the most powerful 180 seconds in your and THEIR day.  Just as powerful as the 17 seconds on average we have with the abortive girl to help her change her mind: on the sidewalk of planned parenthood HQ in Orange CA.  Before they drive off, giving her a rose opens the door to Socratic questions, facts for free services sheets and genuine compassionate love. It saves more than the prebirth baby’s life, it helps to protect the vulnerable mother.

Since my youngest is an adult and we no longer are on a parish staff, and now feeding my 11 with the real estate profession, the last couple of years, I HAVE attended these meetings in different counties; my favorite, that shows just how far gone many public school districts are, is Sonja Shaw and the Chino Valley district. She showed our reprobate state public superintendent the door when Thurmond tried to take over the board meeting.   Pardon my truth is slipping out, but the Dem one party state of silliness believes they, not the parents nor the Church, own the kids from birth to God knows when.  The California Teachers’ union, the Calif Dept of Education Indoctrination, handles 330 billion $$$ every year.

You CAN do this: it is YOUR RIGHT and I dare say a responsibility to speak truth to error.  After all, in California, 1/3 of a TRILLION $$ are GIVEN after being TAKEN from Catholic and other families, to the state government school system.   So, as the planned parenthood supported “trans” resurrection has unfolded, I would take my 2-3 minutes to ask a couple questions of the board members…for example:

“School board member: thank you for your service.  But why are you so hell bent in allowing or fostering our daughters toward suicide?   You realize by promoting, yes promoting via your sympathetic teachers and green haired teacher’s aides, and student “clubs” LGBTrans acceptance, many of OUR life blood kids, the students will be groomed into depression, more anxiety and thinking they are ‘uncomfortable’ and in the wrong body by activists. (I look directly into the boarders eyes)   Evidence exists, in less than a decade, a daughter that had her breasts chainsawed off and her vagina ravaged by Frankensteinian intrusive tools, will realize “I can’t nurse the child that I cannot bear/have”.     Board members, this is YOUR responsibility to BE the adults and at least curtail this insanity.”      Scripts change as needed.

Cardinals, bishops et al. The euphemistic “gender affirming care” has been found to be deadly, bankrupt and demonic. Why we don’t speak out and direct our Catholic hospitals and doctors to NOT mutilate our children is outrageous.   Even the secular medical world is waking up while we tolerate high school activities directors giving free rein to clubs supervised by non Catholic misquided proctors while banning the area, prolife, where so much good is happening by student led efforts.  Talk is cheap

Did you know Children’s Hospital of LA and Kaiser Permanente have just awaken: they just ended their demonic drugging, mutilating and neutering or “desexification” of our young.   Maybe the liability and lawsuits is moving this along…I don’t care.  Ending child mutilation, like abortion, must be our top priority

Bishops, the memories haven’t waned of previous “unforced errors”; just look at Buffalo’s payout.  We’ve paid enough millions for sex abuse settlements, are we willing to start a new round when the poisoned fruit of our mismanaging the “truth” comes to bear?   Sadly, I know of specific cases where the 5th grade trans explorer was showcased in the classrooms he/she/it (pick your preferred proNouns) occupies.   Needless to say, the shocked mother and father of he/she/it’s classmates took their two middle school girls out of that parochial school immediately. I love the school, which I won’t identify, but a teeny amount of toxic viruses can destroy more than a classroom.   Of course, we don’t mistreat the vulnerable dysphorics; like EVERYONE in life, we graciously practice the work of mercy to “the other”.    Two spiritual works come to mind: “to instruct the ignorant” and “to counsel the doubtful”.   The sad truth, many teens are more versed in the truth about male/female, how to handle classmates that are struggling, then their leaders in the Church.   It’s not easy being a bishop, but we in the laity need more spiritual guidance than a DC cardinal playing Solomon and banishing his homeschooling parents and kids from paid for empty rooms at hours NOT occupied by the anointed Catholic school kids. It’s time my good leaders to be fearless, truth-filled, compassionate and BOLD!   The world increasingly is dying to hear the truth.

===========

δυσφορία   dysforia.  From the Greek: severe unhappiness, anxiety, especially a person’s feeling of being very uncomfortable in their body or of being in the wrong body.

Not too long ago, transgenderism used to be considered a mental illness, from that Greek word Dysphoria.   Translated “confusion”, instead of being the guidance for sound moral teachings during pubescent years, pre-, post- and present, we “cede” the guidance needed to non Christian ideologues who infiltrate with permission and destroy our kids.  This is both outrageous and insane and some, but not all, of our nation’s bishops see this reality.

Catholic Hi school Love Boat Julie the  activities director, you are 180 degrees off! Be thankful I am NOT your principal or school president.  But think for a moment, your impact by your ignorant action; you could be setting the stage for the next trans manifesto and attempt to kill kids because they are there, NOT under adult supervision being groomed by an ideological cancer and vulnerable.  This is NOT hyperbole but basic truth.  High school teens are not equipped to truly understand the sickness built into demanding the  right to alter God’s creative design decisions.  The insanity is doubled if the trans involved teens act as counsel to each other in a club setting.   If I knew your name I would send you, for free, a new book that should enlighten the world you are sentencing students in your care, into.

TranSanctuary are not necessary IF we adults teach the truth.  And in this Eucharistic Renaissance, students are HUNGRY for the Truth, about themselves, their school, their world.

Seeds are planted, others nourish or poison, the results are harvested. The stained glass killer sought out a GunFree Zone;   this Transhooter might be insane, but he’s not stupid: he wanted to make sure his plan had ultimate impact, he seemed to hate everyone but loved the mass killers.   So his targets were in GunFree Central, inside a true sanctuary of love, a parish Church celebrating the Eternal Eucharistic Gift, Jesus the Christ.

Irony, we mentioned the Tennessee school trans killer and her hidden bizarre words; but in 2017, at First Baptist, Mr Willefort stopped the carnage at 26 with his well trained handling of bullets, wounding the killer who later killed himself.  Just like the stained glass Annunciation killer.   The next day after the First Baptist Texas event, I got calls that I was in the news in Texas; Mr. Willefort is my doppleganger, uncanny yes.   But, he too showed that the Gospel of Life applies to saving as many lives, prebirth or after the “deWombing”, as we can.

I know I will never convince Cardinal McElroy of the good that homeschoolers do for the Church, with a higher than average number of answered “priest and religious” vocations; nor convince principals and teachers they not the police are the best defense for keeping parish based Catholic kids alive. Maybe they will take my advice and look into the Byrna solution, among other excellent improvements in school safety.

PLEASE do not fear guns, fear those untrained, criminal and civil, and abusive of their purpose.   And frankly, is it time to ban knives from our day to day world?

Truth be told, Bishops and teachers, though stats are sketchy, curved knives called “currettes” are the #1 killer of young people: 65 million dead prebirth US kids over four decades by the sick ilk of planned parenthood.

Although the death medical industry today have switched to Auschwitz style mass chemical kills using mifeprestone as part of a one or two drug cocktail.   How wise is that when a mother looks in the toilet to see her fully formed but small child floating below the rim.  Before, she was the victim, misguided to kill her “clump of cells”.  Now, she becomes complicit, still the victim but even more vulnerable for hell’s demonic opression.   God help us!  Maybe the Church, Autom would do big biz, should offer inexpensive mini caskets for toilet born small children.

But “suffer the little ones to come unto Me” are words to live by.  Jesus knew what He was saying and  doing…weaponizing “trans” confused kids and using them as leftist props is NOT part of His call.  In case you are not aware, planned parenthood is the #1 provider of body altering

Video Vault - Self Defense Mall

No one dies but the perpetrators are incapacitated. Teachers, realizing they are the PRIME defense when in class, need not fear. There is an easily concealed version too

Thank you for considering.  First bishop to text or call me with the word “Bryna”.  NO I don’t have stock just knowledge that fear stands for “False Expectations Appearing Real” is paralyzing good parents to wake up they are the first line of defense for their kidlings. Teachers, you can do this!

  Ironically, my cell number is 714 267 1413 an uncanny clue to our 267th pope, known as the 14th following in Leo 13th’s footsteps.   Email is Lenbeckman@gmail.com and articles can be found http://www.lifeoutloudest.com.

It’s NOT about me, I know I am a sinner, yet have my blessings a la 11 kids and 23 (new foster being adopted!) grandkids still following the faith of our Church fathers.  People of God, it’s about the children of us all:

1) Defend them in our classrooms with wisdom.

2)  Defend our students’ precious souls by NOT allowing clubs that are spawned in hell that insult God’s design.

 

The anti-God world excels in using abbreviations to hide the truth of evil, like LGBTqetc is alphabet soup for Lesbian (women desiring sex with other women), Homosexuals (man2man); or Gay which used to be part of the Flintstones show theme song and Christmas’ Joy to the World.  BiSexual, oft missed, means guys and girls prefer having sex wantonly and whomever they are near in proximity. Trans is the new safe harbor for “everything goes” in recreating God’s sexes, so fluid you can change by the hour.  The high priest?  Mr. “gender fluids” trans governor Newsom.

The death culture, as JPtheGreat Pope Saint calls it, loves to synthesize new words (like Gay) or misappropriate God’s and old symbols (like the Rainbow).

And I know I have three fingers pointing back at me; too many of my 10 siblings have turned their back on our Church, fallen away, due in part to priest abuse that occurred in Europe by a traveling boy’s singing ministry in the 60s.  Yet, my fervent prayer parallels Pope Leo’s call for peace on all levels, seeking the truth and SERVING the OTHER long before ourselves.

PS.  I have written a song for our new pope (Ballad of the Pope of Peace and Hope Leo XiV) which I hope to get to him for his 70th birthday Sept 14th, the feast of the holy Cross.   I was conceived in Chicago 4 years before Robert Francis Prevost was an embryo on the way to birth.  However I was born in the tournament of Roses city, Pasadena and a Californian ever since.

Our Catholic school kids deserve a shot at life, not to be “shot” by the next unhinged mentally challenged seeker of fame confused about life by his or her’s addiction to violence groomed to perfection for the next group kill. Personally, I am optimistic that this time we will change up our service.   The ‘free’ Byrna is only a prompt to make our worship places and ed centers as safe as possible.  EACH parish NEEDS individual assessment of dangers andplanning; my school years church St Anthony Claret, has their stained glass above the 10 foot line but has  six entrances.  The Annunciation stained glass killer couldn’t do what he did and get full effect obviously. Don’t FEAR, plan.

Fake compassion and ignorance has NO place in our violent world today.  Each parish and diocese has the talent, the tools and wisdom to make our parish schools safer than the 50 year history of modern Catholic home schooling.  ZERO kills the noble goal!  And prayer for a change of heart of the nation’s cardinal in DC.  Homeschoolers are people too! and homeschooling IS a choice, a family lifestyle many more consider today.

These pastor’s words are echoed:  “If I could have got between those bullets and the kids,” Father Zehren said, his voice breaking with emotion at an Aug. 30 news conference just outside Annunciation elementary school.     And his words could be prophetic, IF we get serious about protecting the children from the killers, by equipping the teachers AND the school plant as if they are more important than a President, Pope, Bishop or Preborn Children.

Because  They ARE! Just as valuable as the preborn, actually.

The Eucharistic Renaissance is unfolding before our eyes.

Great Ignatius Study Bible Updates for our beloved Scott Hahn and Curtis Mitch. Part 1

Release   August 8th, feast of St Dominic  Update Aug 10   Aug 13

Thank you gentlemen: 25 years in the making and what an amazing tool for study, the Ignatius Bible is!!  You have produced with the guidance we are sure of the Holy Spirit.  Patrick Madrid and others highly recommend it and it only took 3 months for me to get the first copy, finally from Scott’s St Paul ministry.  Now Amazon even has it in short stock and the second came quick.  But a couple of recommends from this dad of 11 kids, 15 10 hens, 8 quail and currently 22 grandkids.   Minor edits, if you will.  You two of course are the wise editors.

The scholarship is incredible: please bear with this lowly Catholic apologist and seasoned exhortationist (very minor to the Scott, Patrick, Drew, Curtis and Trent fab five). Not to mention Doctor Doctor Father Rocky

I’m not even in the same league as  Fr KIA or Know it all, what with his excellent Simonyms. Have you heard of his new country “Reallyreallybadastan”. 

My better moniker, if you need one, is of course Exhortationist and promoter of the Eucharistic Renaissance, the Age we find ourselves in this second half of 2025. For as part of the new Eucharistic Renaissance, the tools are there revived for the spiritually hungry Catholic to spread: Great news since the Father conceptualized His Son as the Ultimate Gift from the non beginnings of eternity long before He even created the humans two: Adam and Eve.

As perfect as the new St Ignatius Bible is, here are some requested updates to the commentary section for next printing.   Actually, just two, Scott and Curtis, in this episode of suggestions.  More in the future if you don’t ban me from applying to that exclusive AwesomeApologistsofAmerica club, Catholic of course.

  1.  Passover & Friday the 13th in the first Hebrew month of Abib/aka Nisan

John 19:31.  This is such a beautiful passage, of historical significance, but the commentary leaves both the avid and novice reader wanting.  It’s  almost like an afterthought and skipped in the commentary section: “the sabbath that week was a high one.”   Just how high was it? And…

Why? Because, even though the first Mass was coincident with the Last Supper and Neo Passover fulfillment, the re enactment of the Jewish Passover in circa 33AD followed the true purpose from centuries before: On Friday the 13th in the Hebrew month of Abib/Nissan. 

Of course, the LAST supper is synchronistic with the FIRST Mass, and the true fulfillment of the 10th plague that got the Israelites out from under pharaoh’s thumb.

How do we know it?

By consulting other Scriptures, specifically from the Torah, the first books of the Canonical Catholic bible, plus Joshua and not to mention John’s Gospel.

In Exodus, after nine plagues, God outlined for the enslaved Chosen people what He wanted them to do because He was sending His most severe plague to Egypt, the tenth one.

Exodus 12  verse 1:* This month will stand at the head of your calendar; you will reckon it the first month of the year.a   We know it even today, as the month of Abib/Nissan; today Israel and the Jewish people celebrate their lunar year 5785.  The current Jewish calendar from Chabad.org:

“The very first commandment given to Jews while they were still in Egypt was to create a calendar based on the cycle of the moon: “And G‑d said to Moses … in the land of Egypt … This month is for you, the head of the months; first it is for you among the months of the year.”1
The Midrash points out that the Hebrew words for “this month” are הַחֹדֶשׁ הַזֶה, lit., “this renewal.” In other words, G‑d showed Moses the moon in its time of renewal and said to him, “When the moon renews itself, you will have a new month.”2
However, it should be noted that the Jewish calendar is actually a luni-solar calendar.  Although the months of the year follow the lunar cycle, we are commanded to keep the holidays in their proper seasons. If we were to only go by the lunar cycle (as some cultures do), we would have a problem. The solar cycle is approximately 365 days, while the lunar year is approximately 354 days, so the lunar calendar would fall behind the solar calendar by 11 days each year, throwing off the holidays. For example, the holiday of Passover, which is meant to be celebrated in the spring, would eventually fall out in the winter.”

Fascinating information…however for our purposes, read on…

Exodus 12 continues:

“For on this same night I will go through Egypt, striking down every firstborn in the land, human being and beast alike, and executing judgment on all the gods of Egypt—I, the LORD!
13 But for you the blood will mark the houses where you are. Seeing the blood, I will pass over you; thereby, when I strike the land of Egypt, no destructive blow will come upon you.
14 This day will be a day of remembrance for you, which your future generations will celebrate with pilgrimage to the LORD; you will celebrate it as a statute forever.
15 For seven days you must eat unleavened bread. From the very first day you will have your houses clear of all leaven. For whoever eats leavened bread from the first day to the seventh will be cut off* from Israel.
16 On the first day you will hold a sacred assembly, and likewise on the seventh. On these days no sort of work shall be done, except to prepare the food that everyone needs.
17 Keep, then, the custom of the unleavened bread,d since it was on this very day that I brought your armies out of the land of Egypt. You must observe this day throughout your generations as a statute forever.
18 From the evening of the fourteenth day of the first month until the evening of the twenty-first day of this month you will eat unleavened bread.

A Franciscan U professor discusses the backgrounder of each of the 10 plagues, leading up to the most prophetic and historically relevant, even today: the Passing over of Israel firstborn boys by the angel of death of God’s chosen.  Integral to our Salvation History…

When you read John 19, it’s no stretch that the “high” day was the re-enactment as God directed in His sacred texts, of Passover.

When Jesus had taken the wine, he said, “It is finished.” And bowing his head, he handed over the spirit.

The Blood and Water vs breaking Our Lord’s legs.   Verse 31 is the critical clue to why the Eucharist was instituted bloodlessly on the same day Jesus was crucified: Preparation Day was the Abib 13 and Sabbath was Abib 14 AND Passover 1.0

31Now since it was preparation day, in order that the bodies might not remain on the cross on the sabbath, for the sabbath day of that week was a solemn one, the Jews asked Pilate that their legs be broken and they be taken down.

32 So the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first and then of the other one who was crucified with Jesus.

33 But when they came to Jesus and saw that he was already dead, they did not break his legs,

34 but one soldier thrust his lance into his side, and immediately blood and water flowed out.

Next, in Deuteronomy 16:

Observe the month of Abib* by keeping the Passover of the LORD, your God, since it was in the month of Abib that the LORD, your God, brought you out of Egypt by night.

Yet another reference to Passover with Moses’ successor in Joshua 5:”

Then the LORD said to Joshua: Today I have removed the reproach of Egypt from you.e Therefore the place is called Gilgal* to the present day.
10f While the Israelites were encamped at Gilgal on the plains of Jericho, they celebrated the Passover on the evening of the fourteenth day of the month.
11On the day after the Passover they ate of the produce of the land in the form of unleavened cakes and parched grain. On that same day
12after they ate of the produce of the land, the manna ceased. No longer was there manna for the Israelites, who that year ate of the yield of the land of Canaan.g
Fascinating that manna, the bread from heaven ceased as Moses’ successor Joshua honored the Passover on the 14th day of Abib, the first month like our January, in Israel.  Want to see the current Jewish calendar, go to chabad.org to see it is still valid today, though the Mass has superceded, if you will, completed a key reason for Pass over after years of enslavement during ancient times.

Thus, the sabbath, ie Saturday, that week (of  the last supper following Palm Sunday) was a high feast day.  What feast was close in time?  The Jewish Passover.   In Exodus, God ordained the 14th of the first Jewish month would be celebrated each year as Passover; the year Jesus died, it was Saturday the 14th.    Simple math: Jesus instituted the Eucharist and died on Friday the 13th.  QED.

Yet, our modern society believes Friday the 13ths, not as re enactments of the Eucharist and the crucifixion but superstitiously an unlucky day.  Did you know those floating hotels called cruise ships and most major land based hotels skip the 13th floor?  Going from 12 to 14 is an odd way to avoid luck.  But for us Catholics and Christian sects, Friday the 13th undeniably is the LUCKIEST day for us.

Truth be told: it is only UNlucky to hell, because the opponent, translation of the Hebrewized Persian name satan, the devil believed he had won, killed off his chief nemesis, the Eternal Son of the Living God.   But “old hairy legs” satan had NO control over, Easter Sunday, sealed OUR luck as followers of Christ in the Catholic Church for an eternity…and beyond.

So, Scott and Curtis, how about a little revision to the commentary on this.  I believe it IS pertinent and helpful for our troubled age though the recent upturn in reverts and new converts to the Bride of Christ is a promising sign this Renaissance is picking up steam, due in part to the years of the Eucharistic Pilgrimages and Revival. 

 Note this irony: in verse 14 above (“…which your future generations will celebrate with pilgrimage to the LORD”) can you see that OUR Eucharistic Journey is a future now present pilgrimage celebration of the Lord of the NEW Covenant.

Bishop Cozzens and the National Eucharistic Congress should be applauded for their fearless courage to bring Catholics back to the Real Presence.

The four pilgrim routes in July 2024 to the NEC and this year, the Katharine Drexel, patroness of the 2025 National Eucharistic Pilgrimage route that ended at Our Lady Queen of the Angels Cathedral yet another pilgrimage to this time of rebirth. 

Why do you think the Pope of Hope XiV Leo the Lover was voted in precisely on a Marian 8th date, May 8, 2025?!!   No COincidence with God: definitely a Godincidence that heralds a new age in our Church. 

The signs are ALL around us and numerous which we will cite in a later piece.   Never forget: Friday the 13th was no accident.  NOR unlucky.    People of God, at 73, I am a bit tired of our lack of fearlessness, courage and compassion; we hid like lemmings through Covid, a serious unforced error giving hell much more credit than its worth.  Boldness must be our disposition and our banner for literally the world is dying every day we tarry in our fears.

Now for the easy one:  have you ever wondered, peering at the ceiling in your bunny foofoo jammies, why Mary was sent to Fatima on six successive 13ths, not 6 successive first Thursdays or 2nd Tuesdays (normal Tacotime)?

Plus, the last on Oct 13th had 70,000 witnesses see the first SunDance festival, freaking out pretty much everyone there!!  13 IS the Trinity number, ONE God in 3 persons.   God I believe did this six 13s in a row for dramatic emphasis, just as He designed and had built the Eucharistic Direction Finder at the center of the world.  NOT the earth: at the world’s central point.   See Isaiah 19:19-20 for detail and yes, Scott and Curtis, a teeny suggestions for the commentary update

2. Our ancient Middle Eastern forefathers lived real long, easily counted lives !! 

Theory: when God created Adam and Eve as perfect as possible humans, with expectation of living forever in the Garden, wouldn’t their descendants have similar?  Even outside the Garden, the atmosphere for long lives was in play.  UNTIL the recreative massive “remodel” of the earth in Noah’s day commonly called, after 120 years of shipbuilding, the Flood.   Trust the truth, people of God: it was MUCH more than a flood.

Sadly, even though I do love Trent ‘death cookie’ Horn and the prolific Fr Mike Schmidt (I hope he still has his LA $2 bill), I must ask for Curtis & Scott to reconsider Genesis 5 commentary before the next printing of Ignatius Study OT/NT.

A frank reflection on the totality of Creation is a must before the milk toast deflection in the commentary on just how long humans HAVE and can live.  With all due respect, it needs a little meat.  Even, the famous Patrick Madrid got close but fell a little short in making the Quantum Leap in one of his recent morning presentations.  Maybe I am live wrong or dead on: but it’s worth a look:

  1. Why give such short shrift to people actually living 969 years?  The majority of the cited ages are odd numbers, meaning the Gen 5 account should be considered as a birthday/life span log, not a Sumerian King 25,000 year exaggeration.   First look through the list (here’s one of many) and you don’t really see a long list of  “approximations” or even “exaggerations”.   The Sumerians claimed their king was 25,000 years old, which IS both an exaggeration AND an approximation. But  not  the  accounts contained in the revealed Word of God and the Torah’s Genesis.
  2. At the same time, do we discount Noah’s 120 years with non-Ryobi DeWalt tools turning gopher wood into a three story boat an exaggeration as well? We know Noah existed, since the Eucharistic Renaissance Gift of the Father, Jesus, referred to Him specifically.  And Noah was a mere 480 years old when he started…why couldn’t human beings BEFORE the flood live extraordinarily long lives?  After all, the earth needed to be populated and you don’t get to a billion by wishing.
  3. In the geneologies, notice even though Enoch had the shortest recorded life B4 the Flood, he was recorded at 365 years old before God sent His Elfan boat to pick Enoch up.  Ok, too much Lord of the Rings.  But however God took him home we have to wait until heaven to ask yet another question.
  4. Psalm 139:13-14 - Bible verse (NKJV) - DailyVerses.netIRREDUCiBLE Complexity.   This is a great theory that debunks atheistic evolution but it also can be used logically to show 777-969 years could be pretty ordinary.  Early men and women’s bodies, like any of us today, have 35-70 trillion cells EACH; each intricately designed and made.  That verse in psalms, 139:14, shouts this dichotomy of proof that 969 years was what God’s talented design created AND, drum roll, it fits the pattern that rebellious mankind LOST this opportunity to live insanely long lives on earth.   Imagine, sitting around the campfire outside the tents, having intergenerational discussions between great great great grandparents, who were fit as a fiddle, not skeletons and you and your siblings, gaining from their aged wisdom.
  5.   Let your eyes and mind think these numbers  through: 930,912,905,910,895,962,365,969,777,950,600,438,433,464,239,230,148,205,175.  Do they look like approximations (rounded numbers) or exaggerations (no 25,000 Sumerian king claim): random yet declining after the Flood event.  Review the ideas, the attempt to rationalize alternatives A,B,C & D in the Genesis 5 commentary (page  65):

    A: Theory that Ages are real as if the Holy Spirit can count. “Concern that Adam~Abram is 20 generations over only 2000 years and the human race spans only 6000 years.  So??  Wow! Imagine that:  all those  billions of years  atheistic  evolutionists having heart attacks. Make sure they don’t look at the Jewish calendar (currently year 5785!!)  People of God, no one alive today was there 6000 years ago, let alone billions upon billions.   Suppose the recorded ages are drum roll, RECORDED AGES?  Worth fleshing out I believe. God did NOT need billions of years to make His universe; but once the atheistic evolutionists came aboard, billions of years was critical to their bizarre theories that man evolved from ape and NEVER giving proof how something came from nothing in the “beginning!”

  6. B: Years2months conversion theory is a nonstarter with children bearing children; reminds one of the St Anthony parish minister John Nowakowski’s excellent song “I am my own grandpa!”   

  7. Alternative C: Clans NOT individual humans are listed theory.  Big problem is Jesus referred to Noah as a person, not a shipbuildng team and odd idea.  Clans would have different death ages except the one event, the ‘clan of world’s humanity’ dying on the first days of the cataclysm except for the boat people on the Survivors Ark.

  8. Alternative D: quote: “Perhaps the BEST hypothesis, and one that would help to explain both the biblical and Near Eastern data, is that giving primeval figures extememly long lives was a way of conceptualizing the great antiquity of mankind: illa est: this may be simply a literary technique used to assert the remarkable age of the human race itself”   OUCH!  Forgive me, great ones, but must we put the inspired Scriptures on the same playing field as Sumerian 25,000th birthdays?  “Conceptualizing the great antiquity of mankind” is well a bit soft on logic but high on double talk.   969 yr long lives means man’s spans shows man has long lives.  Square peg round hole time

Please take a tiny part of your lifespan to reflect on this: the universe is both macro and micro.  The width of the universe is estimated to be 535 sextillion miles wide, made up of billions (some say trillions) of stars, galaxies, supernovae, comets etc.   On earth, our six sextillion ton ball of joy was created (ok atheistic evolutionists, you need billions of years though God doesn’t because He’s no changeling) then inhabited with millions of plants and animals, billions maybe trillions of insects like the cockroach and mosquito (who serve some purpose), but God started with just two.  Adam and Eve.

Before dismissing true lifespans verses as allegorical, realize how PRECISE God has been from ALL eternity, a concept we mere humans cannot completely grasp…actually, barely grasp.

Do we really think God can’t record 969 trips around the sun for Methuselah while designing and creating two distinct human genomic homo sapiens, each with 35-70 trillion cells in various tissues, within many organs, 217 bones etc, and the organs systematically matched in ten body systems to take directions from a 100 trillion synapsed 3 pounds of matter brain?  Any God that can design and create that, has NO difficulty in counting His creations’ years and putting them in a birthday book we call Genesis: Beginnings!

And with that level of Perfection, tell me you doubt the Godhead couldn’t design humans to live perfectly long lives, inside and outside of the Garden?

We can’t be that blind should we analyze the why and how of this generational analysis.

Is it that difficult to believe that the first created beings, Adam and Eve lived into their 900s?  We know God created them to live forever in the Garden; even though they failed the test, their genetic superiority didn’t disappear as they left the Garden.

Then look at the others in the geneological accounts graphically seen above

Our new Pope Leo is a math whiz, like my Chesterton Academy Headmaster son Nathan and math genius Fr Holy Joe Horn of St Michael’s Abbey: all three could do a generational regression analysis; when plotted, as in the picture graph, they would see a linearly declining age spans AFTER the flood.  BEFORE the flood certainly NOT as dramatic as after.  You’ve heard of the vapor canopy theory?  Let’s review it because it is pertinent to this commentary deficiency.

Before the flood commenced, Genesis records the ages of the patriarchs: they are exceedingly long, in the 700-969 age range, proximate to “nearly perfect” bodies soon after God created man and woman; Patrick Madrid addresses this on July 3, 2025 but misses out on connecting these life spans, duly recorded, to the idea that humanity was NOT stupid and could record birthdays and how many years someone lived. Yes, I know the patriarchs were as advanced as us because they didn’t have gender reveals, but:  I get it; the ancients lacked the essentials of  computers to record 969 solar revolutions.  Or did we?

For example,  Noah’s life span before (600 yrs) and after, 350 is the critical transition life span, and Mrs Noah, his sons and their wives also but only Noah’s and Seth’s are charted in Scripture.

Common sense sets in:  his sons’ lifespans decreased precipitously as well, since so much of the “perfect” creation was gone, in part AND: they would be subject to much more cosmic and destructive solar radiation with no filtering mechanism left in the atmosphere, experienced aging in ways the pre flooders did not, prior to the worldwide cataclysmic remaking of the earth.

Conjecture?  Depends IF you research and prep.

Though not sure if this scholarly work is popular in Catholic circles, the book “The Waters Above” is a “scientific” review of the composition of the atmosphere, and the world just prior toThe Waters Above Earth's Pre Flood Vapor Canopy by Dillow Joseph C ... Noah’s shipbuilding operation over 120 years.

I know, I know, we build them much quicker, especially as we entered WWII. But Noah didn’t have Black and Decker, Craftsman, DeWalt, etc at the ready.   The mere fact it took 120 years for an adult and his sons to build the ocean liner, means taking 600-969 revolutions around the sun seems possible for the lifespans.

Seems a long time to build a boat, therein another proof people lived much longer lives before the flood.  Recall, Adam and Eve were destined to live forever in their human bodies and just because they trended long after the garden department closure, is no reason to magically become 120 years.  Factoid, we just buried a venerable sister at 116.   Where do these numbers come from? Genesis.

Theory goes, in the pre-SPF Hawaiian Tan sun block eras, as the body no longer was protected from cosmic rays and sun with an atmospheric vapor canopy, world wide, our cellular deterioration intensified. And lifespans decreased.   You can plot the math.  Actually it has already been done and we will post it below.

Proofs are out there. The Worldwide Tropics for instance; scientists have found undigested ferns in the stomach of wholly mammoths in the Siberian wilderness.  What does this mean?  The animal lived in the tropics and a sudden instantaneous deep freeze stopped its metabolic mechanisms.Genesis 1:6-8. The waters above the firmament

Question for the budding researchers:   ever built a ship to house two or seven pairs of every salvageable animal plus enough food so the  lions don’t feast on the lambs or Noah’s kids? 120 years sans Ryobi and electrical carpentry tools?  Seems reasonable IF as the Bible and Jesus referred to, Noah lived and lived long.

Just suppose God had created the perfect conditions for a much longer life than today, a la 116 for our beloved nun and the 117 years experienced by the Japanese gentleman?

You all know the account that God got angry with man, that led to the 40 days of massive waters coming down and from below. But, to believe my brothers in faith that believe God exaggerated or approximated the age at death of so many, defies logic.

God can’t count?  The Holy Spirit can’t inspire math?  Come on people!

Be honest and look at the secular record. The church seems to soft petal the obvious.  NO WHERE does God declare He needed billions of years to turn a primordial soup bowl into a male or female human.  In fact, 50-70 trillion celled beings from nothing are insane assertions as it is.  And our Church does not even remotely content that evolution created distinct sexes that can populate the earth from scratch.  Or first parents.  Point is, why do we cater to false ideologies, what to “fit in?”

Point is, God doesn’t need a billion or trillion; ONLY manipulative atheistic evolutionists want billions of years so they can claim God DOESN’T exist and not needed to show the splendor of this 55 sextillion mile wide universe.   And when you dig into the microworld as well as the macro, each level shows just how OMNIPOTENT our God is. And infinitely intricate His works.

Like with Covid response, carbon dioxide called pollution and other unforced CAtholic errors of judgement on the tennis court of life, it’s time to stop our wishy washy timidity in challenging the encyclopedic book of pseudoscientific theories.

Holy Innocents Burial Program~Doing what God would have us do! Purchasing PP’s dead babies for respectful interment

updated July 25,2025  July26, feast of Joachim & Anne   July 27  revised Aug 2  Feast of St Gregory the Great. This story is still unraveling and subject to correction

Happy birthday, Lila Rose (plus Joe’s last name)!   I still think you will be a doctor of the Church..July 27.

We sure generate a lot of heat along with great light in the pro-life movement today.  But, there are excellent ways to help our dying society see and do the Truth.  You know the great orgs, like LiveACTION, Operation Rescue, Survivors of the Abortion Holocaust, Students4Life, 40DAY4Life, the list goes on.  But, just as 40Days4Life is known for its prayer warriors, ALL of us need to have a smile on our face as we approach others:  especially those NOT understanding God is responsible and the alpha & Omega of human life.   50 trillion cells of life are gone in an instant by the death merchants in these kill mills across the states and the world.

When, on a typical Saturday morning at Hells HQ at 700 N Tustin, Orange CA, the ladies receive a timeless symbol of life, a rose, and EACH driver or rider as they enter or leave, sees a broad disarming smile, and an offered rose. PLUS the pathway out of hell: fact sheet on Life Centers, just blocks away, or LivingWell, Obria and other prolife alternatives to save the frightened mother and her child.   Irony, the people of Oswiecim renamed Auschwitz Poland did not know what went on inside that train station turned concentration death camp…so no or very few prayer warriors or sidewalk counselors at the gate.

People of God: we know darn well we have no excuse NOT to try and save a mother and child’s wife on any day ending in -Y.

But  please realize we don’t need more stars, we need YOU, more soldiers on the ground, actually on the sidewalks of life and death.   First things first for evangelization 101: strike up a conversation with anyone within 2 feet of you, no matter the size, age, color or wisdom: especially we Catholics have years of unforced errors (post Pfaucinstein evil for example) to make up.

It begins with face2face dialogue and simple Socratic interaction.  But here’s something EVERYONE should know, whether you are a Bishop Cozzens, Freyer, Abs Gomez, Robert Barron.

Here’s the point:  EVERY Bishop including Leo XiV the Lover, the Pope of Hope:  and don’t miss out, it’s happening in EVERY city and state.   In America, dead babies are being tossed out with the trash after their valuable salable organs are separated.  Here’s one we are investigating in the Diocese of Orange.

Truly, this is an opportunity for every pro~lifer out there. UNLESS you have ‘timidity disease’, and boldness and compassion aren’t part of your amazing talents list

The Investigation continues… The Holy Innocents Chronicles

6:40am  Wed Sept 3rd  Planned Parenthood (HQ of Orange and San Bernardino County PP)  Tustin Ave @ 22 fwy

Truck parked in the back.  Usual red buckets loaded.

handwritten note given to the Colton Veolia driver at Browns Colonial Mortuary

Conversation with the driver requesting who we should talk to about buying remains of the remains.

 

6:30am  Wed July 23rd   Planned Parenthood (HQ of Orange and San Bernardino County PP)  Tustin Ave @ 22 fwy

You can see the red buckets Mr. V from VEOLIA is wheeling into PP HQ Tustin @ 22fwy

The Veolia truck is parked at the back, facing east with its hazards on and the tailgate lift down.    Soon the driver dollies in a load of red buckets, with a few white buckets.   Empties.   Next he wheels out obviously full buckets, red and white;  heads back in for more.  Finally, under security guard James serious gaze, he lifts the gate and begins his drive out the driveway crossing OUR sidewalk strip integrated into the blacktop of this not~so~private Covid Shots & kill mill.

Mr. Faithful Tony from Holy Family stands on the sidewalk’s southern end; Vicky carries her beautiful sign.   Typically, I’m dressed in green scrubs with a stethoscope and the sign on the back that speaks the truth in love.

As the truck approaches Tustin Ave, I tell the driver we are praying for him and I proceed to douse his truck with holy water. After all, it IS a coffin or at least a hearse.  The diesel engine powers what is a funeral ride to the prebirth kids’ final destination, wherever the Veolia truck is heading; we say a pray and listen as James the Greater yells about walking on the PP property.  Sorry, James, you are mistaken.   Even though your employer PP gets no funds this year from Jen Seibel and Gavin Newsom, PP is hired by the state to give Covid shots, meaning the public is welcome.

We have found out Veolia’s weekly run is to drop off emptied buckets and pick up two cargos:   medical waste and we guess in one of the colored buckets or taller plastic trash cans, the human remains of dead prebirth and possibly birthed babies.  Humans. Homo Sapiens Sapiens.

On a recent Wednesday, James asked “Are you really a doctor?”   I said “No, James, I am a fake doctor that doesn’t kill kids. However the $692,000/yr Jon Dunn fake doctors of death inside planned parenthood kill half their patients, the prebirth kind and sometimes take out the moms as well.”

Please pray for Security Santiago (James)  If James listens instead of saying “Oh, you’re just getting video for the clickbaiters”, I tell him the truth:

“…these babies deserve to be properly and respectfully buried or interred, not dumped like trash after PP extracts the pricey organs and usable tissue.”

Today was different.  I told Tony, as soon as the truck hits the end of the driveway, I’d hightail it to my car and chase it down.   Just wanted to see what Mr. V does with the babies and smocks and needles.  After all, Californians have a legitimate right to walk on the asphalt of planned parenthood HQ TustinAve @ 22 fwy.  Gov Newsom turned the PPs into public Covid shot dispensers ( recall, making Covered California employees “essential workers” on site )and they need to dispose organic human parts and non-organics like nitrile gloves, smocks and needles.

7:30am   Planned Parenthood/Melody  17th street Santa Ana

I caught up to Mr. V, the Veolia driver as he headed south on Tustin Ave and turned west(right) on 17th; a few blocks later, he turned into the planned parenthood Melody abortion performer (who calls Auschwitz style killers “providers” hat tip Tony).  As usual, I took some video and pictures.   He pulled up and stopped near the security guard I will call Roman; I shot images of the open back (see the pics) and drove around the corner to wait.    This obviously was a route, maybe weekly, picking up babies and medical waste for an unknown destination.

7:45am   Brown Colonial Mortuary Santa Ana

I still had time so I waited. Ten minutes later, Mr V pulled out and headed west on 17th and turned right/north on Sycamore then pulled into an empty parking lot south of and attached toBrown Colonial Mortuary in Santa Ana.  Mr V backed up his truck about 7:45am to the south wall of the parking lot and turned off his engine.  And waited.  About 15 minutes for an employee of Brown to open up it seemed.

Just before 8am, he drove his box truck up to the rear “receiving” area of the Mortuary, picked up and dropped off empties… he finally got back in the cab and drove back to the street.

CORRECTION & clarification:  I KNOW THE LEADERSHIP AND SOME OF THE WORKERS AT BROWN AND BROWN DOES NOT INCINERATE OR COLLECT PLANNED PARENTHOOD DEAD BABIES.   REPEAT.  THEY DON’T. The great work Brown does is helping grieving families that experience miscarriages, still birth and the loss of young children.  Helping families get a respectful memorial service, even a funeral Mass, before interment at Holy Sepulcher or other cemeteries; this is a Godly service showing how precious life and lives are.  It should be noted: a new section over near where the mom of my 11 on the west end is dedicated to smaller graves and children.  Thank you Holy Sepulcher.

Abortuaries like the Orange and San Bernardino flagship planned parenthood on Tustin@22fwy shows NO respect to God’s created beings, when they are most vulnerable: they first like legal necromancers and Aztec priests of old salivate like the opponent of life, satan, as the spirit is drained from the bodies.

They harvest the marketable parts than toss the remains, in bags & jars, into presumably white buckets of innocence for transport to only God and Veolia know where.

I continued to follow the Veolia truck:  his next destination was a few miles away at St Joseph Providence hospital back in Orange.  He pulled over, hit the hazards and waited outside the building.   I figured I had seen enough and have zero idea what he picked up at St Joseph’s Catholic Hospital.  But, I doubt it was pastries or coffee.   They don’t do abortions at this Catholic hospital.

This is a Catholic hospital and Veolia picks up both dead baby parts and medical waste, like syringes, smocks, gloves etc.   I would hope nothing Mr V was getting from this hospital, where 4 of my 11 kids were born and my lovely wife Donna had 4th stage colon cancer treatment in 2011, was an aborted child.   More investigation to continue; but i hate unsubstantiated innuendos, so prevalent in our culture of death today.  I am guilty of same with regard to Brown Memorial Mortuary and confess this publicly.

Draw your own conclusions.   The containers dropped off at Brown Colonial obviously weren’t for Republic or Waste Management Inc. trash and recycling companies.  BROWN DOES NOT HANDLE ABORTED BABIES

The fact Mr. V got back in his truck after leaving the planned parenthood with both human remains and medical waste at their receiving ‘dock’ leaves one unanswered question:

Where do all the abortions go, long time passing?  Where do all the abortions go, long time ago?”

 

Does Veolia ship them out of state?   They can’t incinerate them in Calif. ..  or can they?

Brown doesn’t, because Veolia is picking up medical hazardous waste on a route.

Someone, bishops can you help, some org or committee needs to  respectfully have a memorial service then inter the already co-mingled (or separated in jars or Glad plastics) babies in a permanent and reusable grave/plot. 

God is NOT pleased with co-mingled human bodies. This isn’t 1942 in Oswiecim a la Auschwitz 1943.  OR IS IT? Bullets got expensive in 1942, replaced with ZyklonB gas and mass graves until all 3 incinerators were up and running. Kind of like the Empire’s Death Star in Star Wars.

I found out that,  the owners of Brown, innocently, are not aware that Veolia is picking up children and needles from PP before picking up medical waste at their excellent facility…

Brown mortuary’s empty receiving bay AFTER the delivery of bones and needles

 Possibly, there is a contract between Brown Colonial and Veolia to do the same each week.  The contract is to pick up non human medical/organic waste.

These things we can verify doing a little more forensics work.  But this exhortationist and forensic prolifer recommends: GET GOING Bishops and engaged Catholics and people of other faiths: recall, not EVERY dead baby is a Catholic baby. But every human baby reserves proper treatment and disposition, whether interred or cremated.

For our blessed Catholic Church, EVERY diocese has a bishop.  Every bishop can have

AUSCHWITZ WARNS: But will we ever listen?

staff or volunteers investigate what happens to Vietnamese or Catholic or Jewish baby parts in their domain.  Planned Parenthood is an equal opportunity kill mill so we are helping all faiths by properly disposing of the unfortunate lost children who never saw daylight.

Recommend each diocese (Pope Leo can recommend it be done worldwide) look into what happens to the dead Catholic babies mixed in with other human beings at their resident abortion performers (pls don’t use death culture terminology: abortion is NOT health care and you don’t ‘provide’ a kid by killing it, you perform the cult ritual honoring the devil in hell)

St Joseph Hospital Orange meet Veolia

Every bishop can offer $$ to the kill mills like FHP, Albuquerque’s famous late termer kill mill like Southwestern Women’s Options once (maybe still) owned by Dr Boyd …or your neighborhood PP to buy the babies and properly inter them like a civilized society would do.  After all, PP is closing organic mills due to less free money from we Americans.  Hell can’t sustain because it is selling death NOT life.

The closure of the country’s largest in Houston is a false flag blamed on pro lifers:  most of their business now involves moms taking drugs to induce miscarriage and the toilet drop once the child has died.   Whole new area of despair, depression and life loss for motherhood.

America IS a covenant land with so many inhabitants wandering the desert like the Israelites of old.  We need NOT tolerate barbarism like the beheading by radical anarchist Islamists of Nicaragua, Syrian Christians and Druse, and so many other locales worldwide when humanity’s INhumanity to their fellow human being is obvious.

The Church is open to CREMAINS these days but a nice spot in a Catholic cemetery like Ascension, Holy Sepulcher etc could house these abandoned kids until Jesus returns.

In one of the most prosperous dioceses in America, I am sure we can find space;  after all, put on Christlike eyes and think:  wherever the surgical abortions are going, most of each’s carbon footprint already sold off worldwide. What remains, the leftovers, deserves special and prayerful handling, not BY the left necromancers who favor children dead and not heard, but by people of faith willing to put on boldness, fearlessness and compassion.

The Orange Holy Innocence Burial Project:  One possibility for Bishop Vann, Tim and Thomas’ Orange Diocese:

Veolia goes to two Planned Parenthoods for pickup of dead babies, before it stops at Brown Mortuary.  Suppose, we contract with Brown~Veolia and then when Mr V makes his next stop at the Catholic hospital known as St Joseph Providence, the driver can LEAVE the human remains at the hospital for handling by our very capable Orange Diocese network of Catholic Cemeteries.   

Imagine how we can help the godless environmentally bankrupt!   It SAVES Veolia incineration time (like their new state of the art Arkansas facility pictured below) Obviously kill mills can’t separate each dead child but these “lost children of America” can be interred physically in special locations at the different Catholic cemeteries like Holy Sepulcher.

Some of you have seen the words that Jesus uttered about the young people in His time: “Let the children come to Me”.  I believe the perfect spot would be on the north end of the cemetery, the so-called children’s section where the graves are much smaller due to the size of the children that died young, still born, toddlers, etc for different reasons.

We do beautiful in Orange: seen Our Lady of LaVang or the new Christ Cathedral, the gift from that fine Reformed Catholic Dr and Mrs Schuller, and its ornate additions?   

We could design a special designed coffin that weekly would receive the remains of children who never made the cut: actually, other then the dead babies mothers must see in the toilets across America after their two day chemical abortions,  children would be given a modicum of respect and properly interred.

The Children’s Section at Holy Sepulcher, plenty of room for a Holy Innocence Burial “facility”

People of God, realize we are some of the most blessed people on earth but Mother Teresa sees us, due to our stance on abortion, as one of the most poverty stricken countries on earth.  The Church is exploding in Africa, with the blood of the martyrs reinvigorating that continent’s Catholic population.  Meanwhile, our blessed land of “Life, Liberty and Personal Property” is seeing our young adults reverting and converting in droves because, believe it or not, their spiritual hunger needs to be satisfied, not with stale milk but solid meat of the Gospel.  The WHOLE Gospel which includes John 6:  we are in the Neo Eucharistic Renaissance, a rebirth after years of missed opps and unforced errors bowing to the intimidation and indoctrination of the culture of death.   Covid was no accident, nor our feeble response to the abysmal medical terrorism reeked on the world and our land.

Let’s be honest with ourselves: first, I admit I am a sinner.  But God will go easier on Sodom and its sister city, Gomorrah post time into eternity than this country with bountiful riches and opportunities to spread the REAL Gospel. Mother Teresa points out that once America ends, as much as it can, the kill mill convenience mentality and believe little humans are just as important as the post birth world, the WORLD will follow.

Practiced homosexuality, sometimes called “gay” like from the Flintstones theme song, as unwedded fornication (fourth base sex) is evil.

I did some “due diligence” regarding Veolia.   It’s not on par with Davinci BioScience, formerly owned by Hillary “commodities futures queen” Clinton which bought the big pieces on the human organ trafficking market in Yorba Linda.   But…

Incidentally, Veolia IS in the waste disposal business. Veolia Group is a $30 billion worldwide enterprise that does some good in water treatment, energy and other areas.  Veolia North America is the local but no answer what do they do with all the dead aborted babies:

“Veolia North America offers services and solutions for water, waste and energy management for cities, industries and communities. Learn how Veolia helps clients reduce their environmental impact, optimize their resources and achieve their sustainability goals.”

“Who We Serve~~  Veolia is on the ground in more than 550 communities across North America, using our understanding of the complex relationship between water, waste and energy to solve environmental challenges and help customers reach their goals.”

Waste Capabilities ~~We help customers in the industrial, commercial and governmental sectors safely manage waste and treat, recycle and dispose of hazardous and regulated wastes. Our best-in-class team is equipped with unmatched knowledge, experience and technology in order to provide value-added services that protect people and the environment.

(Except Veolia doesn’t provide much protection for the most vulnerable among us:  moms and the children they carry.

The following Veolia promo piece is very interesting.   I wonder if it matches the 3 in Oswiecim, Poland 90 years ago.  Probably more high tech than at Auschwitz but the same end.

Featured Facility Spotlight

Veolia Gum Springs  Arkansas

A new, state-of-the-art thermal incinerator for the treatment of hazardous waste is under construction in Gum Springs, AR and is expected to become operational in late 2025.

There’s nothing “hazardous” about little kids still in mom’s wombs; why would Brown Colonial incinerate dead children without a proper memorial or burial service.

Beyond the transformational impact of the new incinerator, the Veolia Gum Springs project is setting a new industry standard for environmental performance and sustainability given Veolia’s unprecedented commitments to make the plant the most sustainable operation of its kind in the U.S.

The entrance to Veolia's Gum Springs facility is seen with a rainbow over it

Veolia, like so many environmental posers, uses the word “sustainability” all too often

Definition:  A means of configuring civilization and human activity so that society, its members and its economies are able to meet their needs and express their greatest potential in the present, while preserving biodiversity and natural ecosystems, planning and acting for the ability to maintain these ideals for future generations.

Future generations?  Not if we keep killing off the current.

Reagan was right: he was amazed those that love abortion are already alive.   Estimates range from 67 million dead Americans over 4 decades; with chemical abortion now at 75% of the systemic concentrated camp destruction, God only knows and the devil isn’t telling what the numbers are in this covenant land of “life, liberty and property”.

Worldwide, which includes the countries where concentration death camps existed for over a dozen years, it’s about 2.2 BILLION with a “B” for blood.   so far.

The three crematoria at Auschwitz~~ Let’s rename them EOLIA for End Of Life in Americasince VEOLIA is already taken by a multi billion dollar company

Planned Parenthood gives Auschwitz a bad name in the OC TY DoD Dunn

Auschwitz-Berkinau, Oswiecim, Poland

The Holy Innocents Burial Project, coming to a diocese near you.  Soon?

<<<Some of you have toured this silent sentinel to hell on earth pictured here: Auschwitz-Berkinau.  Maybe we need a monument to the 2.2Billion dead prebirth children worldwide, 67 million and counting American holocaust.  Bishops, please prayfully consider: a Holy Innocents Burial Project in each of your (arch)dioceses.  The time IS now, the death culture and world is DYING to know the truth.  It is your turn. Your time.

Being a Polish German American (PGA), it is hard to see how depraved my countrymen in the Reichland could be in the 1930s+, to my countrymen in Pope St John Paul the Great’s native Poland: how low humanity sank and continues to sink.

As usual, like with the leftist professors inspiring Harvard Hamas Club’s hatred for Jewish descending students, it is a few that infect the many;  for want of intelligence designed brains in Europe circa 1930s, 1.1 million died at this converted railway station, which made it easy to bring the human beings in by cattle car.  Today, at our easily accessible kill mills, victims are carried inside cars, of course, but inside Eve’s descending females we call “moms.” 

And irony still today, 1.1 million is an annual ‘drop in the bucket’ kill off,  symbolized in reality, NOT virtual each Wednesday at 7am, at 700 N Tustin for the red & white bucket brigade.

When I saw the images here, in person in Oswiecim Poland, the city surrounding the death camp, I visited the ground zero Holocaust museum.  It had bins of suitcases, clothes, baby buggies and even hair. These were gathered from the unwilling and often unknowing Poles, Hungarians, gypsies, handicapped “railroaded” to the “showers” of Zyklon B cyanide gas; few know that the reason the Nazis changed operations from bullets to gas, was bullets were just too expensive to kill off 6 million Jews for being Jews, Poles for being slightly non Aryan, handicapped for being handicapped, etc.  So they developed the cyanide shower and then harvested the gold teeth, hair and other recyclable human parts.  No, this wasn’t Soylent Green but similar in results.   I picked up this poster that reads “Auschwitz Warns” over two decades ago from the Auschwitz Holocaust Museum; it was part of our World Youth Day 2005 experience.

3 incinerators at the death camp

It housed St. Max Kolbe’s 10x10foot cell, comfortable if its a bedroom for two.  But 100 prisoners were crammed into this room and forced to play follow the leader to stay alive; recall or realize Fr. Max substituted his life for a father of 3 when another prisoner stole some “food” getting the whole camp punished, randomly choosing every 10th human for getting murdered.

Planned Parenthood’s human fodder killings, human enslavement and harvesting operations is simply evil.  All the Democrat blood donation$ recipients (and a few wiggly Republicans) that get our tax dollars laundered thru PPHQ are basically prostitutes and complicit in this neo-Auschwitz segment of the death culture.

Killing kids for parts is straight from the devil’s playbook of death, with all its varied chapters of hate, confusion and death

DoDo (Doctor of death ops) Jon Dunn was outrageously paid $692,000 a year, think about it more than $1 per minute he was alive, to oversee this railroading of vulnerable moms who have wussy men in their lives not willing to protect and honor their responsibility to new life AND the mother.

LiveACTION, a successful org in this arena of life affirmation and real aid, calls it:  “Love THEM both!!”

And the actual parallels between the perverted Nazi idea of camping and planned parenthoodlums today is strikingly accurate.    Zyklon B chemicals from Farber Germany is now mifepristone and prostaglandin, whether Plan B or known as the chemical abortion, now over 75% of the worldwide abortions (estimated since Guttmacher is owned by PP)

Originally called RU486 (irony, are you for 86ing prebirth kids?), the woman has gone from a willing or unwilling victim, to now seeing she has killed her little girl or boy one day later.  Frankly, the blob of tissue and product of conception diversions are poor analogies: it is the DEATH of a fully human being at an earlier stage known as ‘prebirth.’

Decades ago, I sold power supplies for electronics companies; one customer was Acuson, the ultrasonographic (ultrasound) pioneer that made the quantum leap into “4D” imagery showing life VERY accurately and precise.  Before that, most images were very cloudy and blurred and the death merchants got away, complicitly or from ignorance, to claim that mass inside the womb was NOT human.

We may have had a small excuse before Acuson and computed ultrasonography came to be, but no longer.  As noted morally correct doctors put it: there is NO GOOD reason, outside of ectopic pregnancy, to kill a prebirth child.  NONE!

As long as we tolerate killing prebirth and adopt godless, devil loving ideologies, world population will decline to the point of unsustainability. Funny thing, as time marches on, history DOES not renew but repeats itself.  Hope is always sublime.  And never give up on ‘where evil abounds, grace abounds more’.  The war has been won, it’s the battles we must fight.

For example, who hates the Jews the most today?

At the top of the list is the true satan worshipping 6th century throwback Khoumenei, still (at least for now) the ruler of the modern Persian country of Iran.  His best comparison is not Cyrus the Great, the grandson of Queen Esther and King Ahasueras, but of Haman the Jew hating, Mordecai despising Hittite.  Perfect match though since Haman tried to engineer the death of every Jew in the Persian Empire, before Cyrus the Great married the Medes king’s daughter to combine into the 3rd realm: Medo-Persian Empire of old.    He was thwarted, just as Khoumenei’s nuclear aspirations to destroy the whole Middle East were realized.

With his past terror puppets like the Hezbollah, Hamasians destroying any Jew they could kill, since 1979 they have exported Israelite hatred to the point of building a nuclear weapon they would unleash next door in Israel. Well, until six 30,000 pound MOABs hit their targets.

The point is like the Nazis, they don’t give a beaver’s dam how many of their own Persian populace die from radiation…just as Hitler hated all non-Aryans and tried to isolate the “pure race”.  Ever hear of Khan on Star Trek?  Whether Ricardo Montalban or Benedict Cumberback, both actors embodied the arrogance of master racism.

Hate him, tolerate or love him, Trump set back this suicidal homicidal maniac and his cronies for decades.  Khoumenei, a NON Arab follower of the false god of Muhammad, speaks Farsi and wants the USA and Israel gone.  His sect of Muslim has got to get the 12th imam into play before the 86 year old demoniac dies or the people revolt.

The interconnect is intriguing.  Khoumenei is no Cyrus, the great Persian ruler, who was Queen Esther and King Ahasueras’ grandson.   He really is a replay of King Ahasueras’ primo minister Haman.

Haman hated the whole subculture (ok “race”) of the chosen people, the Jews because of Mordecai NOT worshipping the false god of his time.  This evil man was ready and willing to destroy every Jew from his hate of Mordecai, Esther’s uncle.   The epitome of “overkill.”

With God’s providence, the beautiful Esther saved the Jews from hell’s soldier, Haman the Hittite who built his own gallows.   As so often in history, God has protected the offspring of Abraham thru Jacob.

Think about it: Sarah’s maternal jealousy 4000 years ago is playing out in places like Hamas’ ruling Gaza, Hezbollah’s Lebanon, Houti etc.  Another H, Haman, under Ahasueras, is encapsulated in the 86 year old Khoumenei, a true satanist and Jew hating Persian.   After overthrowing the sultan during Jimmy Carter’s ‘reign’, the false theocrats aka Ayatollahs, forced the country to adopt the Muhammad “religion” and used it to enslave a great nation for almost 50 years.  Times might be changing!

Note this:  the venerable blessed Fulton J Sheen wrote a seminal piece called “Mary and the Mohammedans” you should read, written back in 1952; he believes, today from heaven, that the Virgin Mary will be the human means to bring the Muslims to the Truth.  Time WILL tell.

 

So Compare: Naziism & its efficient human slavery& harvesting   vs   Margaret Sanger’s planned parenthood human enslavement, deceit & harvesting.

The Difference?  only time.  Similar cultures of death, same race of humans, different decades on earth.

Margaret Sanger’s demon lives on today.  In a sense, we replaced the enslavement of blacks leading to the Civil War, which morphed into 3/5th human credit for apportionment, followed by carpet baggers and Jim Crow laws and forced busing:  point is, we just can’t get away from owning other humans.

Today, instead of picking cotton, the slave, in addition to 4 years of cartel child terrorism, is the prebirth human harvested for parts and killed mercilessly.  Currettes, ie knives, have been replaced with popular chemicals for 74% of the kid killings.  Before, unless it is a 3rd trimester baby expelled by saline, the mom didn’t see what she was allowing done to her body.  Her daughter being systemically killed.

Today, so often mom sees her small prebirth child in the toilet and can’t wipe that memory away without a frontal lobotomy.

Before, the victim of the death doctors, mom was somewhat insolated from her decision.  Today, co-perpetrator just adding to her post abortion pain, inescapable without therapy and good counsel.  She sees what the prolifers have said: “We love both…”  because there IS a ‘both’: mom and child.

My annual rose bill is larger than most drunken sailors “on leave” bar tabs.  AT PP HQ Tustin@22fwy, most Saturdays it is my privilege to give roses to all the lady sidewalk warriors praying the rosary and other prayers for the moms, their babies, the workers even the death doctors themselves hoping they realize what the heaven they are doing.

As the cars head east out the driveway of 700 N Tustin, Orange, I or another sidewalk counselor hold up a rose or two, in an offering gesture to the mom, with or without a living child, and most often they stop.

On the 1st anniversary of my excommunication from the Nat’l Eucharistic Congress (more to the story, not here..), July 19th, Jenny was driving her green Jeep down the PP driveway and stopped at the public sidewalk ribbon.  She was offered roses and info from our Christian prolife team (John & Casey).  She told us she just found out she was pregnant.  Their very first question to Jenny was “Do you want to continue the pregnancy?”

That’s hell speak for: “Do you want us to kill your prebirth kid, schedule it today at noon or 4 pm, your choice mom!”    Real ‘choice’ uh huh

This was unusual, having a few minutes before the security guard moves in.  I was dressed in my fake doctor scrubs I use for the Wednesday dead bucket babies holy water Veolia blessing of the PP traveling coffin/hearse.    I looked at Jenny as she was being herded off the driveway, and said “Jenny, this is a 2nd rose for your child and you can get free services right now blocks away at the Life Center”.  She gratefully accepted the roses and information then drove off.

Due diligence a must and time IS of the essence: I immediately called 714-835-LIFE a decades old lifeline number, and gave the heads up that Jenny might be coming direct; they took the information and prayed for both of them (LiveACTION: ‘we love both’).   Of course, they keep it confidential but please add Jenny to your prayer list as she continues her “adventure.”

We give them an free information sheet on free services (LivingWell, Obria the Life Center for example is blocks away and often open while we are on the sidewalk of life) and of course the roses.  Sometimes we have 17 seconds of conversation, sometimes a few minutes.  Whatever amount we are grateful for.  Sometimes the moms keep their babies, sometimes they are already dead.

But, Pope Leo XiV, bishops reading this, personally, I will pay for a prebirth and birthed baby, dead or alive.  Strategize please using the brain God gave us andyou.   Planned parenthood already sells the organs, why not “buy” the rest of the human remains for a proper burial.  WHATEVER is left is still human and deserves a respectful internment.  So should you!   This is more than a witness to the eternal realities, it is a statement made beyond words, in ACTIONs.   After all, a protege of St Francis said:  “Preach the Gospel, and use words if necessary!”

17 seconds.  At Auschwitz, pregnant mothers like the men and children, had about 17 seconds before the cyanide gas killed them.  Before cyanide, lead poisoning took their lives even quicker, as the bullet pierced the heart or brain.

But bullets became too expensive for the  Nazis, so the chambers of horror and incinerators were built.  Zyklon B, like death doctored Plan B today, killed indiscriminately.   Similar to the modern Auschwitz that for the next year will NOT get national blood money, thanks to the BBB bill.  Hate it love it, it’s the law.  Maybe soon we can detach the $330 billion to the anti family, God hating California teachers association and Thurmond’s army at the Calif. Dept of Ed.  $330 billion giving planned parenthood access to kill kids prebirth and groom into suicide post birth talking girls into having their breasts removed and their vaginas ripped out, so that a decade later the older teen or young adult asks:

“Mom, why can’t I nurse the baby girl that I cannot have?”   ~the demoralized words of a girl talked into mutilation by gender destroying medical “professionals”.

Red and White Buckets for medical waste and human remains

There is a difference between the Auschwitz experience and day to day operations at PP Tustin@22fwy in Orange.   Wednesdays before 7am, a Veolia truck pulls up, turns around and stops alongside the main building.   Soon the truck driver and waste materials handler wheels out both red and white buckets.  It is commonly known the medical waste, like gloves and needles, are in the red bucket.

Appropriately, the white “innocent” bucket contains the mixed mortal remains of prebirth kids killed for the sin of existing. Veolia presumably takes the human babies to their incinerator operations in another state or ?.  Years ago, incineration happened outside these kill mills even in Los Angeles.

Compare to the picture above: 3 incinerators next to the gas chambers at Auschwitz~Berkinau, no different than what is done to babies today.  Like in the time of Hitler, bullets became too expensive, long term storage becomes too expensive especially for abortion kill mills who crave EVERY dollar for their outrageous doctor salaries.   Burning the prebirth now dead little ones is an outrageous insult to God’s gift to earth: children.  We treat dogs and cats remains better than the prebirth kids of our mothers around the world.

But a woman’s testimony (thank you LiveACTION) about her abortion is riveting.  This is the side effect of the recent transformation, better put, a RETURN to the 50s/60s wire coat hangars (now with drugs) used to kill a mother’s child:

The mom just saw the results of taking the poison pills of chemical abortion

If she, her tiny daughter, was just a blob of tissue or clump of cells, her writing this would make no sense.

Today, now aborting moms can name the baby she sees in the toilet easier than in the past.  For comparison, here are a few of the notables from Auschwitz’s poisonous pill brigade applied to cattle cars by the Nazis.

Proposal for the future  “The Holy Innocents (or suitably named) Cremation/Interment for Prebirth Remains” project

Hallstat Bone Church, Austria

I will be encouraging our Pope Robert Francis Leo the Lover, the Pope of Hope as well as our bishops to put aside their fear and be bold: let us ask every planned parenthood kill mill and their fellow abortion providers, to release the white buckets of innocent co-mingled prebirth bodies.   The photograph that I took on a recent early AM Wednesday at PP 700 N Tustin, shows the Veolia driver using a hand cart to wheel out buckets of med waste and human remains.

Paris catacombs

I don’t know about your Church, bishops but my Church has been a prime health care provider during the Black Plague and other calamities, long before Pfizer and Dr Pfaucinstein was alive. These bone churches were the refuge for desperate families to protect themselves and have their family and neighbors properly cleansed and buried. Can’t we afford to extend the same helping hand to mothers desperate, once they know they’ve been had, to proper burial or cremation.

My acquaintance Lauren Handy spent years, until Trump pardoned her for the crime of helping find burial of dead children respectfully, at Tallahassee Federal Pen.  As usual, God has other plans and Lauren’s time was spent evangelizing women inmates while in the stir.  Amazing, in Lauren’s case, like with Joseph and the Techno Colored Dream Coat, how God redeems our plans and repurposes His servants to greater ends!   Lauren’s example should not be ignored; at the NEC, Lauren and eight other imprisoned warriors of the Truth were showcased.

Lauren and so many other pro life worker warriors are, in my humble estimation, heroes; even Lila Rose, who someday could be acclaimed a doctor of the Church, are showing the FRUITS of this Eucharistic Renaissance.  We the Church United though fractionalized still, where all that was hidden about the Father’s eternal unspoken “Ultimate Gift” of His Eucharistic Son has been “reborn” for all to see.  This REVEAL cannot be ignored or soft pedaled any longer.

If successful, then, our excellent Catholic cemeteries, like here in the Orange Diocese such as Ascension, Holy Sepulcher and Good Shepherd can make a place for these innocents.  In fact, it will save Veolia, the environmental waste management company and planned parenthoodlums money (residual tax dollars too!) because our Catholic cemeteries have excellent crematoria to properly dispose of these abandoned prebirth and postbirth children. I will donate the first $99 to make this a “go” in SoCal, in honor of the most prolific prolife saint I know: Donna Beckman who died 49 days short of 49 years AFTER bearing 11 kids. 

Honestly I don’t care if Abp Gomez, Kevin Vann or Bishop Cozzens takes up the challenge first, my money is fungible and will go to the first organized and successful service to the preborn that treats them, not like the poisoned bodies of Auschwitz heading to the 3 incinerators after harvesting gold and hair, but as the precious human beings God created. 

Proposal to each bishop, copy to our newest Pope Leo:

Create you own Holy Innocents Cremation/Internment Process” to END the abandonment of prebirth baby remains to unceremonious mishandling. For

A sacred space, an altar of respect and love

example,  the recycler Veolia is NOT a mortuary, Catholic or otherwise. Just a waste disposal service.  Also, encouraging orgs like LiveACTION, Troy Newman’s Operation Rescue, Students for Life, Priests4Life, even “40 days for life’s” Dave Bereit’s well funded organization. 

 Prayer REMAINS important but handling the REMAINS of dead children, ie unanswered prayers continues to be a timely way of beating hell at its own biz.

Amazing Sedlec near Hunta Gora in Czech Rrepublic

We can recover from the mishandling of Covid, the unforced errors of succumbing to the diabolic control by the godless; in the Middle Ages, ossuaries arose when the Black Plague killed thousands.  How monasteries in Europe properly disposed of the dead family members left at their doorsteps. Some of you have been to Hasna Gora to see the evidence the Church CAN do a better job today as a living witness to the depravity of the Culture of Death.

Suggested steps:

  1. Contact the city/county health control office and inquire why abortuaries (call them whatever you want, kill mill or ?) legally can dispose human remains after selling the profitable parts.  Be persistent, whether the health official is sympathetic or a part of the death culture.  Time is prime and ready for success.
  2. Approach each abortion provider with a letter describing the Diocese’s desire to take the human remains off their “hands”…(or particular parish) under the bishop or pastor’s signature.
  3. Provide respectful deliberate handling of these prebirth and at birth remains through each Diocese’s pastoral office.   If the diocese is unwilling, find the parish that is.  Often, non-diocesan orders, like the Capuchins or Praemonstratensians (Norbertines) are willing
  4. contact your legislatures to create an enforceable law that abortion providers are NO LONGER able to dispose of human waste in red or white buckets.  There are plenty of prolife congress people, even legislators in California, who could champion this idea and bill.

Take one look at the holy respect the Veolia driver gave  to buckets of babes on the way to the fires of hell.

Let me use Minnesota as an example; the aggressively prolife Bishop Andrew Cozzens of the Crookston diocese could take lead in that state.

There are currently nine abortion providers in the state of Minnesota as of July 2025:

Bishop Cozzens, good luck and God bless. Your work in the past, even your arrests for standing up for life, are proof you have the mettle.

Archbishop Gomez, your eloquent words as the Eucharistic Pilgrimage and Revival ended at Hill Street & Temple at our Lady’s Angelic cathedral WITHOUT the dysphoric rioters in the streets:

“…And like those first disciples, we need to become Eucharistic missionaries!
Jesus is counting on us to bring people back to the Church, back to Mass! We can never approach the altar without wanting to bring others with us, to know the love that we know!
So, let us be bold for Jesus! Bold like that first generation in the Church, bold like the saints down through the ages!
Jesus is sending us into our homes, into our schools, into the places where we work.

So let’s go forward, always forward! ..”   I agree!

Part of going forward IS to take care of our dead.  Many of the prebirth children tormented, terrorized, trampled and pulverized are CAtholic.  How can we go week after week while our young sisters and brothers are unceremoniously bucketed and transferred out of state where incinerators, like those of Auschwitz, Oswiecim Poland, are used to erase the remains.

I will continue to “holy water” the Veolia truck as a poor yet effective substitute for Veolia surrendering the baby remains, whenever possible.

Is this what Jesus would allow?   You’ve heard about roped millstone necklaces used as life preservers when children abusers and killers are involved.

 

In California, there are, per Calif Right to Life, “As of late 2023, California had approximately 160 abortion clinics. According to the Guttmacher Institute, which was founded as a research arm of Planned Parenthood and is a commonly cited source for abortion statistics, at least half of all patient visits to these facilities are for abortions.(1,2)

Image by Dragos Gontariu
Hundreds of other facilities in California, such as hospitals, perform abortions as well.

California does not require physicians to report abortions, so there are no official records of how many abortions happen every year in California; obviously abortion is not a health care option.  For the most recent year for which it collected data, the PP wholly owned Guttmacher Institute estimates that approximately 154,000 abortions were performed in California and about half of those were paid for with public funds through Medi-Cal.(1)

Orange County is blessed with excellent bishops in Kevin Vann, Bishop Tom and Tim Freyer.  The St Michael’s Abbey is staunchly prolife, under Abbot Hayes, including the baseball priest, Fr Alan.   We can do it here if we have the ability to replace “talk” with “walk”.

WE need to look back 100 years and wake up to the fact, either we carry our crosses or we will be remembered for our weaknesses…or not remembered at all.

Read the Winton story of courage.   “In 1939, as Europe braced for the horrors of war, a quiet hero emerged — not from the ranks of soldiers or statesmen, but from the office of a London stockbroker. Nicholas Winton, a young British banker on vacation, found himself in Prague, where Jewish families were already facing persecution. Moved by their desperation, he gave up his comfortable life and set out to do the unthinkable: rescue as many children as he could before the Nazis closed the borders.
Winton organized what would become known as the Czech Kindertransport. He forged documents, navigated endless bureaucratic red tape, and begged strangers for donations and foster homes in Britain. He arranged eight trains to carry 669 children to safety — children who would have otherwise been swallowed by the Holocaust. He did all this quietly, without recognition, driven solely by a sense of moral duty. He wasn’t a soldier, nor a spy — just a man who refused to look away.
For 50 years, he told no one. Not even his wife. His heroic deeds might have remained a secret forever, had she not discovered an old scrapbook in the attic filled with names, photos, and letters from the rescued children. Decades later, on a BBC program, Winton was invited as a guest — unaware that the studio audience was filled with those very children, now adults withMay be an image of 2 people, child and text families of their own. They stood and applauded the man who had given them life. Nicholas Winton didn’t seek glory — he simply chose to act, proving that even one ordinary person can shape history through quiet, courageous kindness.”
Bishops, our Cathedrals are beautiful. Your cathedras are spectacular.  But every week I will see that Veolia truck carting its latest red and white bucket brigade away from the death mill, I will remember what is ON the truck.  Where human remains, some from the previous saturday when my rose was unsuccessful in changing a mind, Julie, Maria or Eve’s dead child is in the Bucket of Innocents.  669 Children survived thanks to a British stockbroker whose heart was changed.
Nick Winton shows us whether to be bold, compassionate and fearless.  Or be like the easy wide road puts it: don’t get involved.

The Church has not always been this timid; we’ve dealt with Black Plague much more evil than Xi jingle pingle’s incubated Wuhan lab virus.

I believe we are in a new era, not to mention, with the new pope from the southside of Chicago, in which, the grumblings must cease and refocus on the majors not the minor leagues.  After all, Pope of Hope XiV Leo the Lover knows what hope is when your fave MLB team, the Chicago White Sox, plays like a minor league team in 2024 amassing a 3-22 record to begin the season.  His Jersey alone will bump a few wins into the sports column: look out Cubbie fans

My point is simple: as a junior Catholic apologist and Exhortationist, we must go after the evil represented by Margaret Sanger, who helped draft the Racial Laws of Nuremberg 1935 just prior to making Jews non human targets, and turn up the heat.

Talk IS cheap.  You know it.  We all do

Time is short. You know it.  We all do but the kill mill killers are on their back, scrambling.   It’s TIME to step up to the plate, even if it is in White Sox Rate Field stadium where hope springs eternal under a new Pope of Hope.  Like the Ballad (fact filled parody) of Leo XiV sings it:

From the South side of Chicago   //  came the holiest man around         G //  a7

Hailed from St Mary’s, we all Assume  //  Now he’s moved outta town  B7 ~ C // D7~C~ G

He got elected to the top spot  //  of the Roman Catholic Church

Now he’s keen in the Holy Scene (See) // and we cheer for the Pope of Hope (peeps, its the jubilee yr)

                             G                                                                                 A7

chorus: “We’re glad… glad Leo’s in town  G // The gladdest priest on the Vatican grounds

(B7) Gladder than a kid on sweets  /  Joyful to all he meets”   d7 ~C ~G//   (draft)

“Leo XiV, the Renewing Pope of the Eucharistic Renaissance and Devotion to the Twin Sacred Hearts”

What a day that May 8th was!! Grumble, grumble, no pope would ever come from these United States as white smoke floated skyward!  Whattya know!

Fr. Rocky and others agreed, yes he came from my Polish mom Irene’s ChiTown, Soxville, Windy City, whatever you call it…but he belongs to the world!  Pope Leo XiV is smart; ask his brothers; not every sane soul gets a math degree like Robert Francis, cardinal extraordinary (and my headmaster of Chesterton Academy son Nathan sporting 4 adopted fosters and a math master’s degree)

He LOVES Mary and like Pope Francis, she will be an important part of his papacy. Why else elected on a Mary date, May 8th?  I love my dad Paul, but he wasn’t a prophet so I’m no prophet nor son of one.  Like you, I sin, take an occasional show, love my kids and grandoffsprings.  Drive my Mary nuts.

So, being it is too early to define his papacy, we can certainly conjecture a bit.  He grew up it seems in one of those Freedom homes built post WWII like my family of 13 headed by a German dad and Chicago Polish mom plus pets in the 50s thru 80s.   More will come out, some true some not so true as he has experienced already.

A man of peace elevated in the Jubilee year of HOPE!  Popes often choose names to signify something.   John Paul the Great followed the 33 days of Pope John Paul, and became JPII. Benedictus XVI follow his predecessor’s suit, like a confirmation of much good.  Pope Francis, not the Sales man but of Assisi, chartered a new road sometimes of good, often of controversy.

I still struggle with Pope Francis’ buying the JFKerry line that God’s greatest atmospheric gift, carbon dioxide (the Trinity molecule) that feeds the world and keeps us alive somehow, is pollution. What total fools we are, believing 1 molecule in every 2500, CO2, is melting the earth.  This gets parlayed by the godless into Mary’s warned evil, communism to control life and production, waste precious resources of the 3rd world and… I better stop here.

The Leo line is amazing.  Leo XIII unmistakably envisioned the war of the culture of death vs life; the bill of goods of the fallen angels and the need to seek St Michael’s help, with the Father’s authority, to thwart the minions of misery.  What a backdrop at this time in history, as the death and life cultures battle more ferociously.  If you don’t see this need for boldness, fearlessness, courage and renewed devotion, roll over and wake up: it’s everywhere we kill kids prebirth, or the two God designed and made sexes, male and female, are poisoned with homosexual unions and cutting off breasts and vaginas to help a girl become suicidal in a few years.  Yes evil abounds and grace abounds more, yet why are so many so passive?

The suppressed prayer of the great 19th century pontiff will be back in vogue; in Orange County, most Masses experience it as the priest ends Mass.  As Mr Madrid put it on Relevant Radio, the Low Masses used to conclude with this mighty “ask” that we should follow with our Guardian Angel acknowledgement prayer.  My goodness, I used to serve at traditional Latin Masses in the 50s/early 60s before we began suppressing them in seasoned people parishes for still not completely understood reasons.  Why 400 people attending a Mary by the Sea had to lose their joy banning Mass in Lingua Latinam like it was Pentecost 2022 and the upper room doors were chained shut out of fear of King Pfaucinstein’s lies.  similar to Joseph d’ Arimathea’s building in Jerusalem.   You think the devil doesn’t know his time is very short?   Look around, smell the sulfur among the rose fragrances.

God has often sent the Regina Coeli (the daughter in law I helped name 25 years ago, has that name) to earth with focused messages.  Places like Pompeii mentioned by Leo XiV, Fatima, Lourdes, Mexico City Guadalupe, OLChampion, Ecuador etc.

But Jesus makes His own guest appearances often, like to St Mary Aloque.  Fr Rocky calls the balls and strikes: ”

In October 2024, the late Holy Father Pope Francis published his last encyclical: Dilexit Nos, which translates to “He has Loved Us.” It is 220 paragraphs all about the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

In it, Pope Francis quotes Saint Gertrude of Helfta, a nun in the 1200s. Pope Francis writes, “Gertrude concludes that ‘the sweet sound of those heartbeats has been reserved for modern times, so that, hearing them, our aging and lukewarm world may be renewed in the love of God’. Might we think that this is message for our own times, a summons to realize how our world has indeed “grown old”, and needs to perceive anew the message of Christ’s love?”

Pope Francis suggests that this devotion was given in modern times to awaken our love through encountering Jesus’ love in the Sacred Heart. In fact, Jesus Himself promises that “Lukewarm souls shall become fervent.” and “Fervent souls shall quickly mount to high perfection.”

A revival means the patient is half dead, like a dying dog or feral cat; 65,000 showed up for the National Eucharistic Congress near Chicago in Indianapolis last July 2024.  I believe this massive increase in conversions and reverts to the welcoming Catholic church this year, is proof we should at least consider or are in the:

Eucharistic Renaissance of Love, Hope and Faith

LiveACTION Defenders of the most vulnerable and judgemental rush

All A+ ladies: Maria, Lila and Briana.

Updated Aug 18, 2025

An audit of love

From the initial feedback, from text, voice and emails sent to me, your 2025 women’s summit was a success!

I bought nine tickets and they went to homeschool moms (my wife Donna, now in heaven and I homeschooled the Beckman kids over 40+ years); some teens now young adults, and my daughter in law named Queen of Heaven, in Lingua Latinam Regina Coeli said it was great!

(odd knowledge file: 23 years before she married my youngest son, Zach, I helped her mom with alternate spellings of Coeli, when both our families were in the modern early homeschooling Catholic movement since the 1980s)

Compliments to an excellent program:  Here’s a sample of a texted praise for your follow-up session, IF as all good ministries you evaluate things:

“Hi Mr. Beckman, this is Angel (name changed for safe environment protection reasons). I just wanted to say thank you so much for the LiveAction Women’s Summit tickets! My mom and I really enjoyed the conference, and are grateful you gave us the opportunity to attend it!(prayer hands)”

To God be the Glory!  Not sure who the Secret Bouncer was, but to encourage Live Action team to not rush to judgement at the next Cvent gathering, please read on.

Truth be told, Mr. unknown Summit guru, months ago, I had pre-purchased 9 tickets to donate because I have come to trust the quality of ministry via Live ACTION.

“Angel” quoted above is the daughter of a family I see many Thursdays for an Inland Empire homeschooling cooperative, and she and her mom attended that Saturday.  You may not realize there are large numbers of events & programs competing for time and space in people’s lives, and active homeschooling parents are very cautious, as we all should be, to what we expose our kids.  AND ourselves.   And, just in case you had prejudged my intentions, refused to at least interview me  and thought I was a pervert infiltrating the event, at 73 I took my latest Safe Haven~safe environment training for the 7th time in 33+ to remain totally beyond reproach.

Mr Rush2Judgement, sometimes it is OK to have a human male at your events, including someone who supports and followed the ministry well over 20 years. Though my youngest Katy is now 22, I continue to help at that homeschooling co-op, teaching a class or two, helping with sound tech for showcase etc.; certainly a joy and a large part of the reason is not enough dads can be there weekly.

Homeschooling is a lifestyle more than a choice.  History has shown it is always good to have a dad at a homeschooling co-op, even during the Dr Pfaucinstein Covid years at the parks we gathered at.

Your suspicion and judgement without investigation is similar to a recently transferred bishop.  Bishop McElroy proved, not all Catholic leaders like Catholic parents following CCC2223 being the primary educators of God’s gifted bundles of joy.  Now, maybe providentially, the San Diego bishop was moved to DC after telling homeschoolers they were the unwashed and can’t use parish rooms reserved for the elite parish Catholic kids; it’s  as if they can only get the crumbs from the parish table.

And as a real estate broker, I have the freedom to help; and became a frequent “Sacred Heart Patrol” dad.  One Thursday, a young teen boy and girl (quote “ain’t but two sexes”) practiced their safe? sex habits in the park’s bathroom  about 6 years ago.  It seemed their public school planned parenthood trained teacher would give them at least an A- for the lab of life.  As long as they did their practicum using a condom on a cucumber or banana successfully.   So, I redid my busy schedule to be at as many of the coop teaching sessions at the park.

 Point is, ALL parents homeschool from birth; but some turn their kids over to governmental schools at age 3-5 where they can learn from the SIECUS or Sex Information and Education Congress of the US.  The teaching arm of Margaret’s Hell, that racist bigoted Sanger who helped form the National Racial Laws of 1935 in my half heritage country Germany.

Sometimes, math and English studies are mixed in here in California via the $330 billion drained from taxpayers yearly. Here’s where you guys come in righting the wrong of silly and dangerous ideologies. It has been proven and you may know, a kidnapped 8 year old girl, if put into sex service, will average 30,000 sex acts by the time she turns 18 a decade later.  This is just another sad reason the four years of cartel compliance by the Biden Obamanation regime was particularly evil.  Anyways…Sound of Freedom, the movie, shows the importance of your work at LiveACTION

Our world is dying to know what LiveACTION knows!

Kudos, LiveACTION.  Obviously, this Cvent event took incredible planning and prep, especially on Saturday long before the ladies arrived.

Since I paid to get kicked out, please walk with me a moment.  My Saturdays, in case you wonder, start early.  Mass at St Norberts or St Anthony, a couple dozen roses purchased before or after from TJs.  These, like I did at the Hyatt before ejected, are given to each lady prayer ‘warriors’ and sidewalk counselors at PP, hell’s stronghold in the OC, Tustin at 22fwy, planned parenthoodlum’s central.

For the LiveACTION info database: recently retired, Chief Evil Officer CEO Jon Dunn was paid $692K annually to kill kids and maim mothers, the PP HQ for two counties.  This kill mill has been a thorn in my side for well over three decades.  Thank you, it will be well attended on June 28th, anticipating the Senate vote to end planned parenthoodlums access to family funds, a la taxpayer $$.  LONG overdue:none of us should be robbed to support the modern Oswiecim, better known as Auschwitz on many street corners.

The rest of the roses on Saturday and other days, are used to slow down cars bearing precious cargo, moms with and without a living child.

Rarely does a car NOT stop to get the rose and some free advice flyer; often a woman-child will change her mind, something we see immediately or will find out in heaven.  With 11 kids of my own and 22 grandkids, EVERY life being precious is 2nd nature. Always being careful NOT to rush to judgement, but assume the best about others.  You teach this as a ministry well, but sometimes we need to look inward as well. Sometimes the top leadership of a fast growing $20 million/yr org needs some self examination.

This Saturday, after leaving planned parenthood, I headed toward the Hyatt up Tustin Ave;  my life, as your lives, is about seeing with Christlike eyes, the opportunities to show mercy and preach the Gospel with or without words.

These happen all day and night but often we miss them, preoccupied with our own plans and well laid out hopes.  Often, innovation and the Holy Spirit can be stymied, when we are so provincial as to think ROSES given to an amazing doctor like Dr. Lauren Roybal, or pregnant ladies and sponsored attendees (like my 9 8) are evil.  Look in the mirror, Chief bouncer decision maker: were you that busy that Judgemental Rush was the only pathway, sir?

I realize LiveACTION is not exclusively a Catholic org though many Catholics are involved, but Catholics call this predisposition to helping others, the spiritual and corporal works of mercy. 

Fancy term for preaching the Gospel and using words if necessary, attributed to St Francis d’ Asis but probably from one of his followers.  “Do the Truth in Love”. The next person that needs us, IF our eyes and ears are attentive, could be less than 2 feet away or a cell text or call NOW!

Calm down, “faith without works” crowd, as a Catholic apologist and exhortationist, we have had quite a few discussions between Protestant & Catholic ideologies in my over 50 years of ministries.  There is room to always pull a 1 Peter 3:15 humbly, witnessing to the next person we meet (the 2 foot rule), and help them, whether high end donor class or street homeless, like say Wendy I met on the left turn island.  Speaking of…

Wendy IS her name; I drove past her June 21 about 915am heading to the 55 fwy and didn’t have the heart to not engage her in conversation and leave her with lunch money.  So I u-turned twice.

Time and weathered Wendy told me she was homeless, that she had four kids who had been trafficked earlier in life.  She rattled off their ages, 24, 21, 19, 17 just like God routinely told us in Genesis the lifespans and ages of Adam etc (Methuselah 969, Noah’s 930 etc) in Genesis as if they were real lifetimes.

Which, incidentally, they are. Hard to imagine, but realize God’s perfect creation including extraordinary lifespans until Noah’s ship building Ark tours.

It’s just difficult for my acquaintance Scott Hahn and Curtis to put that reality in the commentary on page 65 of Genesis 5 (new beautiful Ignatius OT/NT study bible).  Not sure why but maybe in the next edition/printing.  Read it for yourselves, LiveACTION figures: “There is as of yet no positive solution to these enormous lifespans…”   My take is simple, God’s Genome of the human body was perfect in the beginning, protected by a worldwide vapor canopy UNTIL the Famous worldwide Noahic total reformational Flood followed the first rains and loss of SPF1000 sunscreen.  Sorry, drifting off topic.

God created a perfect universe that enveloped a perfect earth back then; before the flood and the misappropriated rainbow flag, man and woman lived much longer than today.  If we average lifetimes today, we might not even clear 40 or 50, since prebirth kids ARE alive and human and must be measured in.  This is the beauty of the explosion of LiveACTION’s reach and ministries.  But, please DO NOT LOSE SIGHT OF YOUR FIRST LOVE.

I asked Wendy if she saw her kids much, Wendy said very little and gave me some background which I won’t share here. Pray for Wendy, if you will.

This is why I am an exhortationist: EVERYONE needs encouragement, less rush to judgement and more compassion.  How many times have I or you heard “Don’t give them a dollar, they’ll just buy booze or cigs.”  ‘You know how those homeless are, not worthy of cash or care.”

Too often, homeschoolers are looked at with a jaundiced eye as well.  Maybe my bible is different than yours, but the admonition to help doesn’t have a checklist.  Should God ask you after you die, “Why didn’t you give that poor soul a Fig Bar and a couple dollars, McD’s gift cert for a Big Mac or Egg McMuffin?”  Will your answer be: “Big Macs are terribly unhealthy and I was busy heading to my hair appointment or actually to this awesome Women’s Summit were Roses are banned.

A gift given is just that: freely offered with no demand for return.  Like Roses at a woman’s summit in Huntington Beach on a beautiful end of spring Saturday.

I got to the Hyatt close to 10am, and took the remaining few dozen roses to the ballroom, but your crack security gentleman said I needed:

“credentials”

I smiled, respectfully thanked him and recalled “credentials” came up 11 months before, at the National Eucharistic Congress on July 19th last year.

So I went to the registration table…an excellent Avanell and another volunteer helped me get my nametag and goody bag (With six daughters it will be used; no I don’t wear high heels or lipstick) and headed to the open ballroom door at the back, staying way back by the camera stand so as not to be disruptive.

Memo to the Rose Donor Banisher: grease up the entry doors next year or put an attendant there.  I’d volunteer but I know my money is NOT good at LiveACTION anymore.

As it turned out, the entry door kept banging as mentioned as ladies entered and exited, so I played door man and concierge. No, I did not have a volunteer shirt on but, as all Christians must do, when we see a need, we jump in and help.

The noise level dropped considerably as I held the door for the eager participants, all it seemed were female; the men were the guards and cameramen, and more at the VIP mixer later in the day, which I couldn’t attend because the Roses Hating Decision Maker would probably have me arrested for “enthusiastic sharing of the Gospel of Joy, Peace and Love…” in physically providing the singular symbol of womanhood from their boyfriend, husband and/or fathers.

Let this sink in: I’ve got maybe 27 years left on this planet, so anyone reading this will outlast me; but its not how LONG we live, but HOW we live long that really counts.  Smell the flowers, yes the roses, see the innate beauty in nature, understand God’s Ultimate plan promising His Eucharistic Son long before He created a race of beings, human, yet UNmade!

Being in my 8th decade in this county, I know a person or two.  No brag, just fact.

When Dr Lauren (Roybal) headed to the dais, it was my cue.  I jogged up to the front and handed this friend, a bunch of white roses and she uttered a name that rhymes with Len.  I told her they were from Jorge, her amazing husband and fellow doctor of good medicine. I have spoken to crowds, large and small, in classrooms and convention centers, and know how nervous “presenters” can be.   Your misguided judge y jury might call this a stalker incident, most honest people would call it a gesture.  Lauren appreciated it, to “have a friend” in the crowd.  Mr. Rushing2Judgement Judge, you might try giving roses more frequently to your spouse.  She just might be surprised in a good way.

Please note: As swift as I gave them to this brilliant doctor, mother and great wife, I headed back to my door man role far from the stage. No riot; no rock tossing like the sad often paid mindless rioters in downtown LA, which my beloved wife had to work through.

I was content to keep the door decibels below a jet at 100 feet, but was rudely interrupted by the hired “help.”  Funny truth: once the first break, and the rest of the roses given to people I know, some I sponsored, like the roses, sir: I would have been gone.

Confession, on the way back from Dr Roybal, I stopped briefly to give a rose to a very pregnant young mother and also, a very young daughter through her mother and she smiled.  I told mom this was from your husband and from her (the little lady) father.

Back at my doorman “station”, I started recording Lauren’s talk, still softening the roar of the door and occasionally giving a rose to someone who deserves a rose every day of her life!!   Her name is “woman” by the way.  Pope St John Paul the Great put it succinctly, reading from a book titled “Confessions of Father Pio Vianney”:

“John Paul the Great was point on in saying Christ ‘assigns as a duty to every man the dignity of every woman’ “

Sorry, Mr. Powerful, I take these words seriously.  Whoever wrote that book really needs help, with no pagination and few pics; but reread the words. These are most powerful; for IF every man lived by these moral truths, there would be a lot less violence toward women, and lot more of the peace that passes all understanding in the world.  Yes, I know we have a “broken” world decaying, but that’s OUR job in persona Christi, to help mend and get each other to heaven as unscathed as possible.   Not just on stage, but on ground level all day long.

67 million dead and harvested babies killed for sport and parts over the last five decades.  Not to mention, less sex trafficking, slavery of young women and yes, boys.  Humans would be treated like the precious beings they are.

Meanwhile, the “protect women from roses at a woman’s conference leader” hides in the shadows.  This Rose Exhortationist was not disruptive, doing an unscheduled help with a noisy entry door while the film crew did their best.

I did mention I had bought a block of tickets and had intended to give the flowers to those I “sponsored” at the first break in the LiveACTION. Being a dad of 11 with 22 grandkids, yes, you could call me “prolife” but talk IS cheap unless matched with intentional action.  In your case, LiveACTION.

Often, though, the best laid plans are interrupted.  A security gentleman approached me and said “you need to leave”.   He first asked my name which I then showed him the sacred “credentials”.  It matched what I told him, Len Beckman. No response.

I asked him why he wanted me gone and he gave me no answer; I asked, could I finish the taping of Dr Roybal’s talk, and he said no.  When I asked him “who decided that giving roses to women at a women’s summit conference is a capital crime punished by unwelcome expulsion.” No answer like the robotic hired hand he was.  A good man, no doubt, but a poor surrogate for the real decision maker, hidden from view to protect his ego.

If you looked around, the roses had little competition.  And the thorns were, in the main, removed so no participant would be injured in the making of this bounce out.

He still demanded my exit, so I gathered the remainder of my roses and gig bag and headed to the hallway.

As I passed the registration table, I asked Avanell what and who called for this? She had no answer.

Notice the picture above, over a decade + old, of two beautiful women: one my daughter and the other an ‘adopted’ daughter. The very young woman in the middle you might know but since then she’s married with children.

Actually, today, all three are married, two are moms and one thing is sure: they all are in God’s plan.

No, mystery Herod still hidden in plain sight, I am not a stalker, although mom Lila has been a “victim” of roses before from this old guy.

Since your face recon and forensics (I am a forensics real estate broker professional) may be deficient, confession, I provided Joe’s wife a rose at a Steubenville concert, 11 (messaged from her man Joe) ruby reds on July 18th in Indianapolis; one on Sept 28th, the day before my St Michael’s day heart attack reset at hell’s kill mill on Tustin and 22 fwy.

Oh, and I did support your ministry by purchasing four “Fighting for LIFE” retro bio books at Holy Trinity in Ladera Ranch which I passed on to willing recipients, past youth ministry young adults I know.

By the way, I am NOT a prophet nor the son of a prophet. That was the night I mentioned that Lila (she’s the lady between the two other beautiful women above) could become a true “doctor of the Church”, something reserved to public acclamation based on one’s works, like St Therese or St Monica’s playboy kid, St Augustine.  And hierarchical intervention.

Pleading my case to the unidentified security guy: I mentioned I am a long time donor and supporter of LiveACTION, just bought a block of tickets for some great moms and their daughters, also some women I know who really needed the day as it turned out.

By the way, what a blessing Avanell is to your ministry!  A good soldier, she told me about the Defund PP on the 28th; I told her I am speaking and presenting at a conference far away; Avanell then mentioned a men’s conference but I was being herded out as she did.

Of course, I would be happy to “present”/speak briefly at a LiveACTION event, but the Roses Ejecting mystery man won’t have that ever happen.  Organizational dynamics being what they are. I’ll provide my curricula vitae for that remote possibility.

Well trained in the art of misdirection, it was obvious to me she was just “doing her job”.  Which she is most excellent at.  However, it really wasn’t her role nor that of the male security guys.  It was the role of someone lacking the moral clarity and basic Biblical Matt 18:15 ignorance how to handle someone deviating from the plan.   He may never have heard this maxim.  God is busy with us while we make our plans.Obviously, I couldn’t say hi to my daughter in law or her sisters at the next break, so my chess riddled brain thought:

My next stop was to be Corona as it was, so the flowers would not survive in my car; thus:

In the corridor, I gave a dozen to a longtime friend and youth ministry young adult I’ll call VV (I served as a youth minister and DRE over 3+ decades); a couple roses to the registration table.  Last visit I made before my security escort got too upset, was to a new exhibitor, which most of you new to the prolife arena, are clueless about his pioneering efforts for life, Gregg Cunningham. My last few roses went to Gregg’s team as I purchased some of his wares.

Then, I left so as not to embarrass the faceless moral midget who wouldn’t even identify him or herself, be the adult and dialogue. It’s so much easier to pronounce prejudicial judgement through “underlings”.

He would have better understood; the truth is, the excuse is time-worn: “I was too busy to talk to that unwashed reprobate stalker, or whatever he thought, because I am a big man in the LiveACTION universe.”

Sorry sir, true leaders know how to lead; as orgs grow, sometimes we need to humbly re evaluate our role.  Or at least, set down some guidelines like “Roses will never be allowed at any women’s event in the future.”   Bold, yes, understanding of the power of a flower, but we lifelong learners never quit being open.

True big men, like Robert Francis Prevost, are good leaders, do not rush to judgement.  Maybe it was a woman leader, but whichever of the two sexes designed by God, they need a refresher course in Socratic interchange.  Or at least, ask the simple questions before you boot out a former supporter and donor.

I still wanted to know who called for the expulsion!   This “rush to judgement” is a fatal flaw of too much of our culture; if the decision maker, male or female, had the testicular fortitude to come up to me and ask a few questions, I wouldn’t have to write this short long plea for  hope.

Very little has disappointed me over the years regarding LiveACTION and its predecessor’s history.   Funny, I am no victim though I wonder what is the mettle of a man who won’t come forward to at least find out the whys before his Pontius Pilates moment.  I threw no tantrums; I didn’t force him to call the police and make a scene.  Maybe he hoped it would be so, to exonerate his decision: after all, who’d a thunk this:

ROSES should be banned where women are learning and sharing.??

Maybe some day I will know his name; I have a pretty good idea and he didn’t need to use facial recon technology to hide in the shadows and play Herod.

Thank you for the follow up email from another hard-working LiveACTION employee, Ann Wheeler, coincident with the Summit:

“Thank you so much for joining us at our 1st annual Women’s Summit! We are so thankful you were with us and hope this event inspired and motivated you to continue to stand boldly for truth and build a culture of life!
Please take a moment to fill out the post-event survey below to help us improve for next y
We are looking forward to seeing you in 2026!”     Really?  Tell that to the guy who bans rose delivery to appreciative moms

This last email came on Sunday but I didn’t do the survey yet; I will let this suffice.  Sorry Anne.  You were very helpful when the Cvent website was so confusing for multiple tickets.  Same folks who handled the NEC last July it seems.

I just hope, Mr. Decision Maker, you glean something good from these words, even if you think I am a zany 73 fan boy or stalker.  Sorry, little man, come out of the shadows please.  No woman would act like this.   My passion for life issues goes much farther back (11 kids, first one 44 years ago) and my involvements wouldn’t matter to you.  But, at least, take this away today: your decision, like my decision to buy tickets for Galas and Women’s Summit, have good and bad impacts.

This is life and here’s another relevant example: it’s no different than when Alicia looked at me from her “shotgun seat” and the rose, poised on the driveway of hell’s kill mill Orange and blurted out: “I don’t want to hurt my baby.” 

I gave her the red rose as her driver man watched, with an info sheet and said simply: “You don’t ever have to come back to this hell hole; free help is available and here’s the number to the Life Center two blocks away”.   Even today, I don’t know the baby’s name and out of my intense desire to protect moms and kids, no kid name is mentioned.

But, as the long ultrasound showed, yes provided by PP blared out: “I am ALIVE, please love me enough mom to give me a chance at life.”  Today, the couple and child are in a different state.  So, maybe roses at a LiveACTION event isn’t such a bad thing.  Don’t overthink this, sir, DO!

Last year, I added another participant to your beautiful Gala: on Sept 29th I had a mild heart attack, the feast of St Michael the Archangel, the warrior of prolife protection.

Ironically, with a new stent, I was still considering going to the Gala but I realized you wouldn’t want a disturbance, some guy dropping to the ground,  so I gave it to a much more deserving prolife leader who couldn’t afford the price tag.

My point is simple: practice the spiritual and corporal works of mercy for all comers.  If you don’t know what they are, Google them.  A hearty thank you to Avanell for trying to make lemonade out of the lemons dished up by some twit whose moral compass is stuck on rushed judgement.

I’m no saint nor am I one of your wealthy “whales”, maybe my donations are inconsequential,  but consistently I support courageous groups who believe that Jesus IS the reason for the joy of our lives.  Apparently, roses can get me in trouble, and can be anathema even at a National Eucharistic Congress in Indiana last year when given to nuns and mothers.

God forbid His beautifully arrayed flowers get in the hands of His last, most complex and most important creation: womanhood.   If you call this a fixation, maybe so.  A “fixation” on doing the Will of Someone much greater than ourselves.  Honoring the Father’s call in the middle of eternity as we work toward a better more eternally focused world.

Could it be an interstate watch list exists?  The one minute version: last July out of sight, except for the hi tech football cops’ facial recognition system, I tossed 11 red roses up to the base of Lila’s dais Thursday night, July 18th before she began her excellent presentation.

Next I saw an NEC staffer pick them up and assumed she would get them.  The note simply read:

“Lila, good work.  These are from your husband, Joe and will be the last time you receive a bunch from me.  God bless you two as your family grows.  Dad of 11”

Months later, I saw her briefly at my infamous nefarious PP kill mill, the saturday Sept 28th before my mild heart attack on St Michael’s feast day weekend. I asked “Lila, did you get the roses at your NEC talk?”  She told me, no Len, I did not.   Wow!  Maybe the stage staffer thought they were poisoned or had an organic bomb built in.

But, Lila’s “no” told me volumes. Flash back to NEC, Friday morning July 19th, a crisp St Joseph monthly ‘date’, a long time friend, the armless Tony Melendez was announced. He was following excellent Catholic apologist Patrick Madrid’s famous “I never said you stole money!” routine in Indianapolis.  Look it up!

I got permission from the NEC security staff to give Tony, tho armless the itinerant lover of Christ guitarist, a brief hug. A short surprise similar to white roses for a gifted Dr Roybal. No impact except maybe to a similar preoccupied with appearances not substance, secret impulsive judge.

All of 20 seconds, just as he told the world “I can’t hug you…” I circled around him and said to the crowd: “…but Tony, we can hug you.”  His surprise turned to recognition since I first saw him early in life, similar to seeing Lila years ago in Downey with my Briana and Maria.

The date was Sept 15, 1987 and I was with my 30 youth ministry teens from Christ Cathedral’s predecessor parish St Callistus now a tract of homes; nothing on earth is permanent…except the virtue of love/charity.

Tony was the “gift” to Pope Saint John Paul the Great, coming up from below stage at Universal Amphitheater, playing his 6 stringer with his toes and singing “Never Been the Same.”  All of us were surprised and the great Pope jumped down, hugged Tony and said with his Polish accent, “I love you Tony!”

Is this important, Mr. Mystery Banisher? Maybe. Please don’t “rush to judgement”, as you are prone to doing; be sensitive to the Spirit, pray unceasingly as you make decisions. You are not the only rash person; we all judge quickly. I “Mea Culpa” often as all humans are prone to doing.

For your recon watch list file on this 73 year old grandpa to 22,  I traveled with Tony overseas 3 times since 2000 and sometimes played his hands on buses and convention centers. He is a friend for life and he was grieving that July on stage, having lost his beloved son (similar I gather to the Father’s loss on Friday the 13th day of Hebrew Abib…a couple thousand years ago) a year before.  In fact, son Andres birthday was the next week after the National Eucharistic Conference closed. Yes, impulsive yet not being a distraction: in fact, WITH PERMISSION to be a part of the plan.

A mere 20 seconds, wearing the same 30 year old Sacred Heart Patrol hat as at the Hyatt, the people loved it, Tony identified me briefly as a friend from the past, and back at my end zone Lucas Oil seat. But who I am is unimportant: good ministry occurred.

10 minutes later (your security guy didn’t wait 10, more like 7 or 8 minutes: you have the recordings to prove it), three football stadium cops asked me to follow them, leaving my lovely wife, Mary, stepmom of 5 years stranded, and ushered me to their “security interrogation room”.

The top cop, Billy, falsely identified himself as the chief of police (they were excellent at bouncing drunk 3rd quarter football fans apparently) first words:

“Partner, what were you thinking?”  A little banter back and forth and he said gloatingly: “We saw you toss the roses last night”.   Oh my, giving roses is not only considered illicit at a LiveACTION Cvent, it also is illegal in the midwest.

Mr Herod mystery banisher judge and juror without explanation, understand they had put me on a watch list of sorts, using high end facial recognition because of a dozen minus one, roses gifted to your LiveACTION foundress (that rose went to a nun in the seats).

They were bought at Krogers and freely given, like at the Olympics or a seasoned skating competition to an ice skating primadonna.

Mystery expeller, ever give your spouse a rose?  Let me in on a little secret:  EVERY woman deserves a rose or a flower EVERY day. Try it sometime, IF you have a romantic bone in your quick to judge body.  My dilemma is the skepticism the Church and those calling themselves Christian that has creeped in: we are BLESSED my good sir!   If you ever read Orwell, 1984, this is the bizarro nature of super gridiron cop Billy:

“If we hadn’t given you permission, we would have tackled you”  Yes, he said these words!

Ok. Next after 17 minutes of his recorded interrogation, which he promised would be provided me through the NEC (NEVER happened) he gave me one option

“You walk out of here right now, or we will arrest you for trespassing. ”   Hmm, even with permission, the embarrassed stadium secuity wanted their pound of flesh. TO THIS DAY, I DON’T KNOW IF AS HE CLAIMED, NET WANTED ME GONE. Or in his arrogance, he decided unilaterally to save face even after NEC giving permission for the work of mercy.

Bishop Cozzens, a true saint in the making, called me months ago and told me he had no clue it happened; we share some lifelong involvements and had a pleasant telecon, but…

Billy said “You can not come back until Sunday night (it was Friday, one day in for the NEC) or you will be arrested.”

Prejudice comes in many forms mystery banisher.  Like LiveACTION, I never heard from an NEC staffer as promised.

Plus, never got the transcript of the 17 minutes session with the so-called Indianapolis Police Chief (the real one looked a bit older), maybe when I file a FOIA request with Indy City Attorney I will get it.  Being involved in sensitive forensics at times (no I am perfectly sane even after 11 kids) and needed it.

How did I know it was 17 minutes?  I inadvertently recorded it on my cell, and was able to create a transcript that makes 1984 look like a kid’s book.  Just in case.

Mystery banisher, my point is long winded but simple:  I forgive your shortsightedness; it only cost me a few hundred dollars, a $30 valet and three dozen roses. I lost out on meeting some of those we aided getting to the event and requisite ministry, but God ALWAYS has a plan despite our own. Here’s an example, always important to see the big picture.

Indy Colts’ Super cop Billy banished me to the streets outside the stadium and Indianapolis Convention Center.  As I walked the mile to my car, I came upon ten Event Staffers eating pizza and they asked me what was going on inside.  I told them and we dialogued Socratic style for fifteen minutes: true Catholics believe in the Real Presence of Jesus in the former bread and wine.  That He is present in the Eucharist.  The Congress celebrated this reality with speakers and Holy Hour Adoration, the Mass.  The Event Staffers had lots of question and as a Catholic apologist, junior at best, I witnessed to these great people.

The rest of the story is too long, but the fingers of God’s work in them.  Mystery banisher, there is a cost.  It cost Mary and I thousands in air fare, car rental, the Congress attendance fee alone was $700.  Biggest cost was Mary so looked forward to coming 2000 miles; we missed out on so much because of my permitted hug.  Mother Teresa has a great sharing on this you should read, sir bouncer:

“If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives: Be kind anyway. If you are successful you will win some false friends and true enemies: Succeed anyway. If you are honest and frank people will try to cheat you: Be honest anyway. What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight: Build anyway. If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous of you: Be happy anyway. The good you do today, will often be forgotten by tomorrow: Do good anyway. Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough: Give your best anyway.” ~ Mother Teresa

Wednesday July 17th, we became inadvertent volunteers, helping the neglected elderly in walkers, wheelchairs and even a blind guy, get to the front of theMother Teresa quote: Some people come in our life as blessings. Some come in your life... CVent registration line. That was hours on Registration Wednesday; Thursday was the Lila Rose toss.  Friday by noon I was gone, never finding out why.

Mary and I couldn’t even go to the Eucharistic Procession without being arrested, so Sat morn we left town.  Like you, Mr. Mystery spoil sport Banisher, never heard from the uninformed decision maker in Indiana.  No one at the National Eucharistic Congress seems to have a clue who kicked Mary and I out as the excellent got started 2 days in of the 5 day celebration of the Eucharist’s REAL Presence

I hope this was helpful but I am no Pollyanna.  My adult Vet Tech daughter worries I would get arrested.  What? for giving roses to women in joy and need?  We sacrifice for the good of the Kingdom.  Time IS money and I put a chunk of time into writing this.  Mainly to help your ministry as it expands; ministries get to certain levels, whether like you at $20 million or $1MM or $100 million.  NEVER forget your raison d’ etre, first foundationals.  We turn UP not down the heat on ourselves to always “improve our serve”, especially in this era of many unforced errors in some prolife groups as well as the Church.   LiveACTION has done stellar, but the more successful, the more on guard against Hell, Inc. and envious members of the Christian and otherwise, communities.

Our relationship is over, the dust is off my sandals, but please learn the small lesson.  Practice Matt 18: 15, do NOT prejudge, live an intentional life as you help guide the next phase of LiveACTION.  So much good is happening in our prolife world, but remember, where evil abounds, grace abound more.  We need to believe in each other, be self-effacing when dealing with each other.

Last year, Billy the cop wouldn’t let me keep my “credentials” even the orange lanyard had to be surrendered; LiveACTION at least let me out with my name intact.  Look up credentials.  It is defined as “that which entitles one to confidence, credit, or authority.”

I will send in my curriculum vitae, in case you want a seasoned veteran of working with teens and young adults at three parishes over 33 years and decades involved in the prolife arena, including 30 yrs at a crisis pregnancy org, many of which as president.   I can be concise and focused, not as wordy as this audit of love.  Holiness, remember is not a synonym of quiet or conformer, it is something we all work toward in service to the eternal Trinity in this 3rd Millennium. Hmm, great name for a business, Millennium 3.  Too late, it is taken.

Being a 40 year homeschooling dad of 11 and  grandpa of 22 as well, not to mention the oldest of 11 humbly means being “FOR Life” is built in first nature.  Having me participate after being kicked out isn’t impossible:   Stranger things have happened.

After all, you just sent me a receipt, a request for feedback and a new fundraising request.

Dr Roybal texted me this today:  “Thank you again, Len for the sweet gesture!!  It was so nice to see a friend in the crowd.  God bless you!”   Lauren

Mystery banisher, you didn’t know it all and i thought I was just a door man like an East Coast NYC apartment building street level super. Someday, if you come out of the shadows, I’ll buy you a coffee.  Some of that good North Carolina brew one of your vendors had on Saturday.

In His Service and formerly yours,

Len Beckman

 

 

 

 

 

 

Friday the 13th A Lucky Day for Jesus to die?

…And for we humans to live forever?!

Habemus Papem, a little Latino Lingua for ya all.  The cardinals just elected Pope Francis’ replacement to the chair of St Peter.  Leo XIII + I, Leo the14th, came to be on a Virgin Mary anniversary (the 8th of each month) date, May 8, 2025.  His skills include mathematics and Peruvian missionary work, a man of hope this Jubilee year and peace, first quoting the Lord:

“Peace be with you” in one of his many known languages.

.   Cardinal Robert Francis hails from Soxville, Chicago, where my Polish mom Irene married my German dad Paul before pioneering to California in 1951, in fact I was conceived in Chicago and born in Pasadena/Duarte CA.

.  A smart man of logic, I wonder how Pope Leo XiV feels about the Father’s use of math and symbols in His messages to us humans. Plus, will he continue the progress to the Eucharistic Renaissance (what else explains the explosion of new and renewed Catholics this year) and devotion to the sacred heart?  Subjects for another piece: we will title it

“Leo XiV, the Renewing Pope of the Eucharistic Renaissance and Devotion to the Twin Sacred Hearts”

Another day: but let’s see how intricate God is in His seasons, dates, days, symbols and times.  The relevance to conversations surrounding Cardinal Robert Francis’ siblings will be apparent.

Passover 2025: Passover 2025 began on Saturday evening, April 12, 2025, the 14th of Nisan, 5785. The Seder night took place on Saturday evening, immediately followed by the first day of Passover. The holiday lasted seven days in Israel (eight days abroad) & will end on Friday evening, April 18, 2025″ ~Chabad. com

So close but still a day away from convergence with the first Neo-Passover…explained later

The headline above sounds like an odd lead-in title? Yet, numbers are so integral to salvation history and the Father’s plans for His Son and OUR sons…and daughters.  IF it is true, the next time, in the Gregorian world, that Good Friday falls on a Friday the 13th is April 13, 2063. But…

Suppose we look at what the OT and NTestament say on this matter.

In the introduction to Exodus, from the Greek word for “departure: “… its central event was understood by the Septuagint’s translators to be the departure of the Israelites from Egypt. Its Hebrew title, Shemoth (“Names”), is from the book’s opening phrase, “These are the names….” Continuing the history of Israel from the point where the Book of Genesis leaves off, Exodus recounts the Egyptian oppression of Jacob’s ever-increasing descendants (no issues of abortion nor contraceptives Latin for ‘against conceiving babies’ at that time)and their miraculous deliverance by God through Moses, who led them across the Red Sea to Mount Sinai where they entered into a covenant with the Lord.”

Departure happened many times. Don’t be deceived into thinking Egypt was 100% against/hatred for the Jews…otherwise Gabriel would have told Joseph to head to Italy or somewhere else.

Pictured here is the Holy Family, told to depart AT NIGHT as in IMMEDIATELY; the most expedia route is to travel 270 miles along a pre-determined angle/line that emanates from a giant monument near Cairo, Egypt. 

The Holy Family probably passed through the two Solomonic pillars marking the Red/Reed Sea exodus

miracle (one is still standing today; the other became a Saudi Arabian flag).  Destination would be the  Jewish settlement that dated back to Alexander the Great.  Actually, a line permanently cast in stone and God’s design.

Egypt? Egypt perennially plays a part in human and divine history.  It was in the shadow of the GizaTimeless timeline plateau in Cairo, and appropriately, Joseph took his beloved wife and GodChild past the Great Pyramid of Giza, the Father’s depository of directions to His Eucharistic Son’s birth place, the Eternal Ultimate Gift of the Father.  Now that’s a mouth and mindful!   The math: 26 degrees, 18 minutes& 9.63 seconds is the Christ angle, mentioned over centuries and a focus today, mostly outside the Catholic Church’s smart guys and ladies. But we are catching up!

Notice in the Giza graphic the descending passage from the entrance 17 steps up goes below the ground level; it measures the 26+degree angularity mentioned and first saw light hit the bottom 344 feet away by the North Star in 2141BC, “backing off” to the Giza face at 2623 Bc.  Much of this work has been hampered by the 1303ad earthquake which made the casing cover stones easily stolen for minarets and mosques nearby. Giza is the most accurate compass, off only 3 seconds out of (60 minutes  x 60 seconds x 360 degrees=1,296.000 total seconds).  Incredibly small error which facilitates extrapolating the Christ angle, when laid down facing north east and running 270 miles straight through Bethlehem, a city that David and most of us have heard of.  Giza, the worlds largest monument and compass even a time machine, sits AT THE EXACT CENTER OF THE WORLD LIKE A SILENT SENTINEL TO COMING AND CURRENT EVENTS.

It wasn’t just the star & constellations in the heavens that led wise men and camels to find the King of King and Son of the Eternal One; the Father left ZERO to chance, even for our shortened lives’ generation.  Today, we don’t average 800 year lifespans; closer to 80 and in a good year, the couple survives into a 2nd century.

Chapter 12 regarding the Passover events: The LORD said to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt: 2* This month will stand at the head of your calendar; you will reckon it the first month of the year.”  That month is Abib/Nisan.

God created HIS calendar for the Chosen.  This month, we recognize and remember this incredible gift to God’s chosen, in which God’s angel of death “passed over” the first born Israel boys that led to their departure; in the Jewish lunar calendar, we know the month as Abib or Nisan (not the car); further on:

“Tell the whole community of Israel: On the tenth of this month every family must procure for itself a lamb…”

So Abib 10, the families would buy “…Your lamb must be a year-old male and without blemish. You may take it from either the sheep or the goats.

6You will keep it until the fourteenth day of this month…”  Abib 14.   I know, it’s not easy to reconcile Gregorian year 2025 with Chabad year 5785, different calendars, one solar and one lunar.  I know, the 5785 might give acid indigestion to our atheist and God fearing alike, since it starts with creation and two immaculately conceived from dirt and rib…continues today  (see Chabad.com).  But, God needed billions of years to cook the primordial soup and depend on infinitesimal mutations to get a lizard, ape and man.
Back to Friday the 13th:
Today, we must realize the connection, the foreshadowing to the covenant we live under today.  The unblemished Lamb of God was substituted, His blood is not animal but God & human.  We call this annual event of the Novus Testament, the beginning of the Triduum, the Last Supper.  Note that it was the First NeoPassover that today is celebrated 24/7 somewhere on earth.   Yet, the Jews still celebrate the arrival of Elijah with their Seder meals each spring when the Passover is celebrated on Abib 14.
 
“They will take some of its (the sacrificial Lamb’s) blood and apply it to the two doorposts and the lintel of the houses in which they eat it…”   Passover: in chapter 11:
 
It is the LORD’s Passover.
12For on this same night I will go through Egypt, striking down every firstborn in the land, human being and beast alike, and executing judgment on all the gods of Egypt—I, the LORD!
 
Note, the words spoken still today at the Jewish Passover remembrances. How God “executed judgement on all the (false) gods of Egypt”.  Not just the pharoah but the years of oppression and slavery by fake andromorphically created entities.  The gods of Jehovah Witnesses, the Hindu, the Greeks and Egypt, and other man made deities.
 
Next we look to the BOOK OF DEUTERONOMY. The title of Deuteronomy in Hebrew is Debarim, “words”
 
Chapter 16: “Observe the month of Abib* by keeping the Passover of the LORD, your God, since it was in the month of Abib that the LORD, your God, brought you out of Egypt by night.”
 
Just as the angel Gabriel brought the Holy Family out of Israel by night.  So, God explicitly tells us how much and how important Egypt is to the long salvation history narrative.  We are told the first month on the Hebrew calendar, lunar in scope, is when the Israelites were finally freed of the Egyptian enslavement. 
We humans need a lot of reminding.  And God has done, more than inspiring so it can be recorded in the Talmud, written down for the generations to come, I believe the Father went through incredible lengths to foreshadow and focus.
One area four plus millennia ago, is in the Border Fire in the Middle monument, with the Father pointing directly through the Pillars of Solomon marking the escape route thru the Red Sea…ending 270 miles away to the northeast at the House of Bread of Life.  Sometimes called Beth’ Lehem.  Egyptian tour guides call it Giza.  I think it is more than that.
 
Giza, centering the world like a giant Compass, strategically accurate to reflect something the Father has known for all eternity:  His beloved Eucharistic Son would be His Ultimate Gift to the world…a Gift the love of many has “waxed cold” and in need of a Eucharistic Renaissance.
 

The Center of the Universe, His Son, pointed to at the Center of the World who is the Center of History.  His Story IS History.

 

Back again to Friday the 13th, look how specific God is about His reminders to the Hebrews AND to us:

“…only at the place which the LORD, your God, will choose as the dwelling place of His Name, and in the evening at sunset, at the very time when you left Egypt, shall you sacrifice the Passover.
7You shall cook and eat it at the place the LORD, your God, will choose; then in the morning you may return to your tents.
8For six days you shall eat unleavened bread, and on the seventh day there shall be a solemn assembly for the LORD, your God; on that day you shall do no work.”
 

Today, though it is a movable feast reserved for a Sunday, Easter comes after Friday’s tragedy wanes.  We humans need reminding.

Easter would have been great that 1st Easter Sunrise. Even that was cancelled in Covid hellish days. Will Mother’s Day have open Church day?~Covid evil (note this was first written during the Pfaucinstein Pfiasco)

 
Fast forward to John’s Gospel:  “When Jesus had taken the wine, he said, “It is finished.q And bowing his head, he handed over the spirit….”   This was accompanied with earthquakes, the temple veil separating God and mankind was torn in two, much proof this Friday was unique.  I should mention the world’s largest monument, typically on the Spring Equinox had zero shadow at high noon, this momentous day in all of time, Giza was dark for 3 hours.  Completely on this Friday the 13th.
 
Herein is a conjecture: converting lunar to solar, noting God would have used the seasonality of the earth for specific faith points and “testimonies”, today Spring Equinox is March 20-21; the 4 day error Father Rocky and others point to would mean Spring Equinox would coincide with drum roll please, March 25th, one incredibly important date and focus moment in salvation history.  But notice:
 
John verse 19:31 is pivotal to the proof that Jesus DID die on Friday the 13th.  Now since it was preparation day, in order that the bodies might not remain on the cross on the sabbath, for the sabbath day of that week was a solemn one, the Jews asked Pilate that their legs be broken and they be taken down.”
Let’s do the math; after all, God IS the great Mathematician.  That ignoble Friday was Preparation Day! Thus, it could NOT have been the actual Passover of ancient times.  Prep for what?  Preparation for the Passover.  But Sunday’s a’coming!
 
Sabbath or Saturday coincided with the movable feast of Passover. “for the sabbath day of that week was a solemn one”.  It wasn’t the other feasts in Deuteronomy, like Purim or Feast of Weeks.
 
To the Jews, nothing is more providential and worth celebrating then their freedom from slavery as they are poised to enter the Promised Land.   Just as our covenantal country celebrated freedom, as seen on the back of the two dollar bill:  July 4, 1776. 
 
As in Joshua’s time, it doesn’t mean everything is rosy AFTER the deliverance.  But worshiping God remains the central theme of renewal, resurrection and Renaissance after the dark ages.  Of course, we live in Dark Ages II, having killed, so far, 66 million American children prebirth having eternal ramifications; yet we pray, like the Israelites prayed to Adonai/God re: Ramses or Pharoah, an end to 400 years of being treated like 3/5ths of a human (oops, that’s our Civil War with ourselves), no treated like they were owned by Egypt.   We pray that the new slavery, babies sold for parts, ends. 
 
Follow the logic: The solemn day, Passover was Abib the 14th.  This means that Jesus died the day before, Friday the 13th.
 
How and why it became known as a superstitious and unlucky day is for you to discern.  I am sure hell was not happy when it found out 3 days later their momentary joy of killing God’s Son forever proved to be a bloody illusion. And over time, the spirit realm is not completely divorced from our physical universe.  The demonic continues, as the prayer of St Michael attests, to influence humanity until the end of time.  Being in the last days, we see evil is most virulent still not knowing the day or date.  But, hell knows their time is exceedingly short:  BE PREPARED.
 
There are all kinds of ironies:  just as the Jews escaped Egypt at night, and slavery for a time, the Holy Family traveled BACK to Egypt at night to escape the evil king and baby killer, Herod.
 
In other posts, I have shown the real possibility Joseph took Mary and Jesus the most direct route, back along the Christ Angle emanating from the Giza monument, south west at an angularity of 26 degrees, 18 minutes and 9.63 seconds: To where?  A Jewish settlement that dated back to the time of Alexander the Great, where Jews and Egyptian locals co-existed peacefully in the shadow of Giza: in Cairo.  Could it have been for 2 1/2 years spoken of in Revelations and/or Daniel?  Hmm.
 
People of God: we are in interesting, even parallel, times to the Ancients and early Salvation History AS it continues to unfold.
 

“After this, Joseph of Arimathea, secretly a disciple of Jesus for fear of the Jews, asked Pilate if he could remove the body of Jesus. And Pilate permitted it. So he came and took his body.

39Nicodemus, the one who had first come to him at night, also came bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes weighing about one hundred pounds.x

40They took the body of Jesus and bound it with burial cloths along with the spices, according to the Jewish burial custom.

41Now in the place where he had been crucified there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb, in which no one had yet been buried.

42So they laid Jesus there because of the Jewish preparation day; for the tomb was close by.”

Again, the fear of doing any work on a Sabbath, especially a high holy day like Passover.  Even though Jesus created the NEW Passover, ostensibly the same date for the bloodless Eucharist and bloody Calvary, from sundown Abib 12 now Abib 13, the night when Jesus took bread and broke it…
 
It’s important to see the context, using history contained in one other book, the book of Joshua.

In the Introduction:

“The Book of Joshua presents a narrative of the way Israel took possession of the land of Canaan, making it the land of Israel. This process is swift and inexorable, and is followed by an orderly division and disposition of the land among the twelve tribes, with a concluding ceremony of covenant renewal.

The theological message of the book is unmistakable. God has been faithful to the promise of the land. Promises made; promises kept.

If Israel relies totally on the Lord for victory; if Israel is united as a people; if the law of herem is kept and no one grows rich from victory in war—then and only then will Israel possess the land.

The Israelites are led by Joshua, the successor of Moses, and the book is at pains to show not only how Joshua carries on the work of Moses but how the “conquest” of Canaan is continuous with the exodus from Egypt…”

But first, God requires that all those warriors in Egypt would not see the Promise fulfilled.  Manna, the bread from heaven, ceased..
 
“When all the kings of the Amorites to the west of the Jordan and all the kings of the Canaanites by the sea heard that the LORD had dried up the waters of the Jordan before the Israelites until they crossed over, their hearts melted and they were utterly dispirited because of the Israelites. On this occasion the LORD said to Joshua: Make flint knives and circumcise Israel for the second time.”
 
When the circumcision of the entire nation was complete, they remained in camp where they were, until they recovered.
 
9Then the LORD said to Joshua: Today I have removed the reproach of Egypt from you. Therefore the place is called Gilgal* to the present day. While the Israelites were encamped at Gilgal on the plains of Jericho, they celebrated the Passover on the evening of the fourteenth day of the month.

“Look at God’s timing; there’s that Abib 14th again.  The disobedient warrior class died in the desert; the newly circumsized Israel under Joshua, no longer would receive the daily temporary bread from heaven.  Manna ceased.”    Of course, you see that as a prefigurement of the Bread of Life born at the House of Bread (of Life) at Bethlehem 26 degrees 18minutes 9.63seconds to the north east as ordained in the Giza monument

Notice that the bread from heaven that evaporated when not consumed, daily, was replaced in the NEW Covenant by the Bread of Heaven that dissolves and becomes a part of our bodies; Jesus replaced Manna and is available at Mass daily.  Most everywhere in the world.  You don’t need a National Eucharistic Congress, as good as it is, when we are free to begin our days with daily Eucharist at the Mass.

“On the day after the Passover they ate of the produce of the land in the form of unleavened cakes and parched grain. On that same day 12after they ate of the produce of the land, the manna ceased. No longer was there manna for the Israelites, who that year ate of the yield of the land of Canaan.”

QED   Jesus, the Ultimate Gift, died one Abib 13 or Friday the 13th just before the Passover of Moses, Joshua and even today was celebrated that year. The two day offset is undeniable but important.  To this day, Passover and Holy Thursday/Good Friday do not coincide each year

Surely, IT was a solemn day.   In case you need a trivia question, what is the next day that Good Friday is April 13th?   2063. A friend of mine, Mickie whom I worked with at McDonald’s 50 years ago, just celebrated her 70th.  She will never see a Good Friday the April 13th again, at this writing 38 years away.

I will have to look it up on Chabad to see what Abib 13th coincides with the Friday of Fridays: Good Friday

Of course, can’t forget Pope Gregory 13th’s calendar.  Fr Rocky does a fine job in discussing the 4-5 day error of the seasonal corners: Spring Equinox, Summer Solstice, Fall Equinox and Winter Solstice.

Fr. Rocky’s take on the calendar shift:

“God bless you Len!  The reason that 3/25 is not the first day of spring is the same reason that Christmas is not on the 20th of December.  By the time the Christians established the Liturgical Calendar, the Julian Calendar was off by five sidereal days, because the Julian Calendar –  named after Julius Caesar, but invented in Alexandria three centuries previously, was off by eleven minutes a day, an imprecision corrected by Pope Gregory XIII in 1582, by omitting leap years in century years not divisible by 400.  It took the Protestant countries another two centuries to catch up.  Fascinating.”   Well put, Fr Rocky

Now I have to ask Scott Hahn and Curtis to add this little fact about Friday the 13th being a pivotal day before the next printing of the Ignatius super bible; easy add to the commentary.

But 13 has other purposes: not just for the Crucifixion but for Mary’s Appearances at Fatima (6 times on a 13th) and you can’t miss, as Shroud Center director, retired judge Dave Belz put it: the herringbone 3 in 1(eerily like the Trinity and manipulations of Lucky for us 13).  I believe God uses the number 13 to point us to the hard to understand composition of God having three distinct persons.

Trying to keep this short, the Crucifixion happened on two different dates on the Julian, Gregorian and Hebrew.  We now know Abib 13th on the Chabad Hebrew lunar calendar from Exodus, Joshua, Deuteronomy and John’s Gospel

March 25th, was the Annunciation and 33 years later,  the day Jesus died on the Spring Equinox (with the 5 day correction); also, the date St Bernadette, though undereducated, spoke a new Papal Doctrine in French (I am the Immaculate Conception) on March 25,`1858.  Talk about God’s precision in weaving His Story.  It should be noted for the Relevant Radio crowd, Mary appeared to Adele in 1859 at Our Lady of Good Health now OL d’ Champion in Green Bay, the ONLY recognized Marian apparition in these united states

All you LOTR, Lord of the Ring advocates, recall the Mordor ring was destroyed on March 25th the day Jesus was “born to die”. Once on earth inside the mom, you are fully human by the time mom knows you are there.

AT Conception not AT the moment planned parenthood kills you.

Corrections welcome: Jesus, I trust in you!

Finally, another mathematician is the headmaster at GKChesterton Academy of Dayton, Ohio: Nathan, who wife his beautiful wife, Jen are raising four five adopted foster kids that God can renew anything.

He graduated from TAC (Thomas Aquinas College) in 2011, was recruited to Dominion college to get his Masters in Mathematics and now teaches other young minds. What does the future hold for Pope Leo XiV?

Only time will tell.  Thank you for reading, Mark! and others who yearn for the Truth

Pope Saint John Paul the GREAT and the Eucharistic Miracle Terri (Sciavo) Schindler

20th anniversaries in this Eucharistic Jubilee year of two great Catholics. Hope 2025!  March 31st IS Terri’s day. God bless you!   NEVER forget

Terri “Schiavo” Schindler is a true unheralded Eucharistic Miracle aided by Pope Saint John Paul the Great!

Someday our Catholic sister’s martyrdom will be honored

 

Looking to the 20th anniversary of the overlooked Eucharistic miracle, the deaths of Terri (Schiavo) Schindler on March 31, 2005 and our beloved Pope on April 2, 2005

As to Karol Wotyla, October 22nd is the feast of one of the most remarkable and holy Popes of all time; he is being called great by the laity in the main and various members of the consecrated priesthood and religious members of the Church.

The acclamation of “Great” does not come down from the Vatican but the millions of Domestic Churches, the Catholic families, throughout the world by popular NOT papal acclamation.  Today, I am often correcting how we refer to one of the most important popes in history:  Pope Saint John Paul the Great.

Being half Polish (1/2 German too!), my Polish mom, Irene had a deep love for John Paul II, and my privilege was first seeing him Sept 15, 1987 in LA with my youth group from St Callistus in Garden Grove

That same day, Tony Melendez came up from below the stage at the former Universal Amphitheater to greet him with a song; plus in 2000 and 2002 World Youth Days, traveling in his Popemobile and closing WYD Masses.   He had already left the earth in April 2005, and BXVI was at Kolon in August 2005 for WYD

Written decades ago, please understand the Pope & Terri are inextricably linked

A number of excellent biographies are out there about his amazing life and accomplishments.   This piece is laser specific, a look at his life’s end and something many in the Church and the world might have missed: in light of these confusing times of brain death accuracy, ambitious use of pain killing morphine and the efficacy of the Eucharist, TERRI WAS STILL SENTIENT signaling TO HER MOM AND OTHERS.

Hell always has its evil focus on destroying God’s human race; special target was a LIVING, but disabled Terri, our CAtholic sister, who could still communicate to her family, even though her EX husband Michael wanted her dead.

His motivation is of course suspect even today because her parents were willing to give him the million dollar settlement to LET them keep their daughter alive.

Truth be told, Terri was martyred no different than other Catholic faithful over the years.

Humbly, I try to be a forensic apologist and it is glaring how obvious the evil was for five years leading up to Terri’s passing.

In case, you can’t read the gravestone pictured above for this Catholic woman, let me translate it:  husband Michael had control, after a prolonged fight, of Terri’s life AND death.  His claim she didn’t want to live if she was incapacitated, will never be proven.  Never at least on earth.  But, if we put on our thinking caps regarding Michael’s gravestone wording for Terri, maybe the adage that “doth protesteth too much” comes to mind:

SCHIAVO

Theresa Marie

Beloved Wife

Born December 3, 1963

Departed the earth February 25, 1990

At Peace March 31, 2005

(dove pictured with olive branch)

I KEPT MY PROMISE

Do you see any “mistakes” in the wording etched forever over Terri’s body in the ground? For example, Michael cut off her now deceased dad, Robert, mom and brother as if he was the only one in her life. 

IF he was a control freak, it might make sense.  IF in anger he triggered the cardiac events, he’d work to keep his involvement quiet and unknown.  Michael called 9-1-1 that Feb 25,1990 morning while signaling to the world she “died” that day. Just odd because she remained VERY MUCH ALIVE!

Here’s my list: for comparison, my gravestone is already at Holy Sepulcher cemetery, since the mother of my 11 preceded me on September 9, 2011.  It has wording below her name, Donna Marie, that reads:

Bride and Joy, Mom, Sis, Friend, Grand Mom, Aunt, Teacher, Lover.  When I had it designed, I wanted to include ALL her relationships in life, as much as possible…my saintly Donna NEVER belonged to me exclusively; she DIED on September 9, 2011, thus the date engraved on Donna’s grave is accurate.   My final date is still blank.   

Yet, most bizarre, Michael’s commissioned grave stone pretends she died 5513 days before she took her last, emaciated, dehydrated breath.   None dare call that delusional, egotistical and self serving?

RE: Terri’s Gravestone: 

Note that Michael’s headstone made to his specifications, calls her out only as his wife.  No daughter, sister etc.

Terri’s stone is etched with “departed the earth February 25, 1990”.  Bizarre!!  Clueless or delusional?

Is Michael playing God? Or just delirious?  Terri remained alive ON EARTH for 5513 days, give or take a day AFTER Feb 25, 1990.  Not that her husband was happy.  The spiritual irony is Terri lasted 5500 more days WITH sustaining organic nourishment and 13 days like some of the Eucharistic saints of old, mentioned below, who took ONLY the Eucharist, sans earthly food, until their deaths.  But Terri’s proof is unique.  Read on.

Outing Michael’s lie, a difficulty with this written~in~stone line by Michael, comes from Wiki: “On February 25, 1990, at age 26, Schiavo went into cardiac arrest at her home in St. Petersburg, Florida.

She was resuscitated, but had severe brain damage due to lack of oxygen to her brain and was left comatose.”

Michael was there on Feb 25th apparently since he claims she died that day.  The next line on the headstone is also suspect: At Peace, March 31, 2005.

Riddle me this: after 5 years of legal battles, Michael got his way to have her finished off, killed by dehydration and starvation.  The last thing you read in stone is NOT about Terri but Michael claiming

“I kept my promise”.    Well, Michael, except for the one called “Until DEATH do we part!”

From the terrischiavo.org timeline, in 1994: In 1994, Michael Schiavo took up residence and becomes engaged with Jodi Centzone. He refused to dissolve his marriage to Terri and the couple had two children.”

We understand Michael Schiavo is NOT Mormon.  Note, on the Michael’s gravestone specially concocted for Terri and to further his sham, he dated Terri’s death on the day of the cardiac event, Feb 25, 1990. He should know: he and only he was there.   And he “doth protesteth” too much writing self justifying books.

Four years later, he committed teleological bigamy and “married” in actions Jodi Centzone.  Point is obvious, he didn’t want to divorce Terri, give up perceived “ownership” and leave her to those that truly loved her, the Schindler family and do the honorable thing and marry his sex partner nee mistress.

Terri and family were/are devout Catholics.  At terrischiavo.org, you can read the details of how the Schindler (ironic, recall Schindler’s List in which the German industrialist saved numerous Jewish and Polish lives) family, mom and dad and siblings, fought valiantly to KEEP HER ALIVE.  AND how Michael Schiavo and his family battled to kill her. Robert and Mary Schindler offered the million dollar settlement for Michael to get off his high horse and let them take care of Terri, since HE HAD ALREADY DIVORCED AND REMARRIED.  This miscarriage of justice will never be fully vetted though the Church today could do more: call Terri’s death martyrdom and open a cause for sainthood.  Anyone reading this can imagine what battling satan’s forces would be like.

The truth, also, is she was not a vegetable nor brain dead; but husband Michael couldn’t countenance possibly out of guilt (there’s “mystery” over how she was disabled during their marriage Feb 25, 1990 in the first place), or maybe misguided deception from Scientologists and others in south Florida who pushed hard to kill her by stopping water and food from entering her body.

When I met Terri’s family, Bobby and Mom&Dad in Anaheim, they told me they tried to ransom her immobile but ALIVE body for a million dollars.

Think about that for a moment. It was obvious she was murdered in the worst sense of murder: she did NOT need to die!  She couldn’t “out” Michael at worst, or speak her intentions at best.  Remember, she could still communicate when not under Michael’s spell.

Other evil humans wanted her dead for their ideological idiocies.  Michael already had shacked up and impregnated another and though it’s a stretch that he may be innocent as the dove on the gravestone, reasonable people should wonder why he claimed she died tied to her cardiac arrest!

Her last breath was taken 5513 DAYS LATER just before Pope John Paul II became terminally ill. 5500 days with food, on and off as the tube battles continued; 13 with only the Eucharist

You claim there is a miracle in this? I do.

Relevant Radio Brooke and others, recall presidents and governors, the pope, still competent, and other leaders tried unsuccessfully to keep her alive and allow her to be fed early this millennium.

Even the Supreme Court was involved, both Florida and the US.  Tried and retried.

If you DON’T know, Terri lasted, though significantly dehydrated and starved already, a additional full 13 days.  What kept her alive?  How about the Food mentioned in John 6!

Defrocked? Father Pavone, the prolife priest and founder of Priests for Life, took the initiative to give her the Lord in the Eucharist THREE (3) times in those 13 days. 

Naturally, she should not have lasted more than a day or two but supernaturally, the Father kept His Eucharistic Son’s Catholic sister alive for an incredible Marian number of days, 13, as well as reflecting on the truth in the Scriptures that Jesus died on Friday the 13th month of Abib/Nissan in local calendar times.  No math coincidents in God’s world.

The Father knew, being Omniscient, His amazing Witness and favored pope, from the seer of Fatima, through WWII and a pontificate that PSt.JPtheGreat showed us as a “doer of the word” how to live a great and fulfilling life.

The Creator also knew  His servant pope’s time was up, the hour glass’ last sand was coming down as he was to enter eternity soon.

Worldwide News of the life and death battle

The rest of the story of the evil was God called Terri home early, at 9:05am Eastern Daylight time Thursday, March 31st; within minutes maybe hours, the Servant Pope, who’s Parkinson’s had been in remission, suddenly turned terminal.  I checked with Zenit at that time and accounting for 7 hours time differences Rome vs Eastern Time, it’s almost as if God triggered His favored pope’s final days to show us “How to die gracefully”.

The pope’s final public appearance was March 30th.  The next day:  “It was the onset on March 31 of a urinary infection, causing septicemia, that left them (the doctors) without hope.”   Pope John Paul II was terminal SOON after Terri died 7 time zones away.  ON March 31st, 2005.

The better guess is God was angered at our Catholic sister being paraded around the world as a success of the left loony necromantic soldiers of death.  So, He used the beloved pontiff’s dying and death to OVERSHADOW the gross evil (that is so common today!) of premature killing of prebirth AND born human beings, defying God’s role as the Author and Finisher of Life.  But, God will NOT be mocked.

This site has an excellent replay of the timeline of Terri’s life…and death:    https://terrischiavo.org/story/timeline/

20 years later, this year.  I was a busy dad of 11, working real estate and DRE/YM at St Anthony Claret, while prepping for WYD2005, at that time. I was one of those who saw the abject evil demonics at play and worked, prayed etc to help keep Terri alive.

I even tried to do a total fast and got to 3 days and finally “broke the fast” with a Filet of Fish the Friday before (I still have the styrofoam box) because I couldn’t, in my weakness, go longer.  Terri lived 13 more; nothing more than super-natural.

Sorry Michael, she did NOT leave the earth on the day she had the cardiac event, whether or not YOU were there when it happened.

God’s impact was, my guess, purposeful and phenomenal:  The scientologists and other necromancers had no time to celebrate, because the pope’s impending death literally cleared the news airwaves of the tragedy that was the focus for months of the WORLD.  Terri, for the next 2 weeks, was on the back page of the newspaper.

I posit, hope and preach for us to better understand that God is a God of precision, of mercy tempered with justice.

Think about this: the Father kept our Catholic sister, Terri ALIVE with His Eucharistic Son’s Ultimate Gift three times on her tongue by a beloved Father Pavone.  Yes, he is now Mr. Frank, but this does not diminish the gravity of his giving Terri the Eucharist 3 times. Nor the spiritual awesomeness that demonstrates God’s all powerful control of the universe.

Maybe like Lanciano and other bloody evidences that the Eucharist is real, this truly WAS a Eucharistic miracle right there with others that have gone before Terri experienced the tyranny of starvation backfiring giving true glory to God.

In fact, there IS prior evidence it happens in a magnificent way:  here are a few saints to consider (maybe Len isn’t off his rocker) about Terri the Eucharistic Miracle and future saint…maybe living exclusively on the Eucharist IS real and happened in the past.  In fact, as a proof of sainthood, we have scientific, legal and empirical proof that Theresa Marie Schindler, her given name, was totally ABSENT of nourishment EXCEPT for the Ultimate Gift given by an ordained priest with his consecrated hands.

Each of these humans LIVED only on the Eucharist, the Ultimate Gift heralded in the Scriptures, via Giza, physical and other means:

The 13th century St. Angela of Foligno  |  St. Catherine of Siena | St. Lidwina of Holland  | St. Nicholas of Flue | St. Joseph of Cupertino  |  St. Anne Catherine Emmerich  Last century’s Theresa Neumann  | Alexandrina de Costa

What is the purpose of a “Eucharistic miracle”?

To draw attention, to show that the Body and Blood of Christ IS real in the bread and wine: to prove it’s not just a convenient memory device.

Believe it or not?  The link below contains the stories of a few saints who lived exclusively on the Holy Eucharist as they lived out their lives.  TY Fr Sanctus Mario.  His blog has more detail but the truth is Terri IS a 21st Century example of someone who survived only on the Eucharist.

https://sanctusmario.com/tag/saints-who-lived-solely-on-the-eucharist-before-their-death/

I am not aware if a cause has been opened for Terri’s sainthood but it should.  After all, there are plenty of saints who’s diet was exclusively the Eucharist.  Terri, martyr and saint.  Has a certain ring to it…of truth.   One last irony, her married name ‘schiavo’ translates to “slave”.  God just did not let His created woman be treated like a slave and bring glory to the hellions who orchestrated this tragedy.

In His Service…and yours!

Our adventure at National Eucharist Congress NEC undoubtedly like no other!

God’s sunlight streams in from the west at Lucas Oil as Adoration commences July 17th

James 1:22 ff   Be doers of the word and not hearers only, deluding yourselves  23For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks at his own face in a mirror. 24He sees himself, then goes off and promptly forgets what he looked like...

  27Religion that is pure and undefiled before God and the Father is this: to care for orphans and widows* in their affliction and to keep oneself unstained by the world.

Fellow sojourners: The Jubilee year of Hope commences…the rejuvenation of belief in the Father’s Ultimate Gift of His Eucharistic Son continues.  Our Church needs this refreshing “retraining” time. God has done His part!

——————————–

Tony gets a hug

My wife Mary and I heard in late November 2023 on Relevant Radio about the upcoming June 2024 NEC event in Indianapolis. We have a local love for Adoration, have Holy Hours at odd times at St Martin’s and believe deeply in John 6th.  In fact, my fave T-Shirt from decades of youth ministry and DRE staffing is “We are here for the Food..John 6” at St Anthony Claret.

We adore thee, O Lord!…

We had not been involved on the two-three year lead up nor on NEC’s staff or volunteers for the Eucharistic Real Presence push previously, but this seemed a great way, as involved Orange County, CA Catholics, to further a great need: rejuvenating a true understanding of the Father’s Ultimate Gift of His Eucharistic Son.

Despite many prophetic tools, like the Eucharist miracles from Lanciano onward, about the Eternal Promise of the Father monumented for millennia in the desert at Giza etc., active and fallen away Catholics were both losing their faith about Jesus’ True Presence, not to mention coupled with a decline in hope.  Covid did not help in the least, encouraging lock downs of Mass buildings massively.

Down to an estimated 25% believing it’s real!  Another Catholic leader claims 59% of Catholics just don’t believe Jesus is real.  Whatever the real percentage, this is not good, especially with the incredible planning, symbolizing, prophecies, Scriptures and more that the Eternal Father “invested” in eternally loving His Son and offering Him for daily consumption.

But, understand, our passivity and allowing (at least in California) our godless government elected/employees to shut us down, violating every bit of the 1st amendment and common sense, has contributed to this dilemma.

We, as a Church, must be honest and realize that due in part to unforced errors by us and our leaders, including the ridiculous Covid handling & aftermath, response, NEC would be a beautiful way to reignite the Truth at our local parishes.

November 2023  Ticketing. 

10 minutes on line, $700 drained from the savings, but well invested and registered for the event the following year!  On the way in 7 months.

June 13~Our Flight to Cincinatti, a very ominous day in American history.

First foster adopted (Jason) at his baptism in Dayton

We headed East early June 13th, to visit our Chicago Polish cousins and foster grandkids in Ohio; Nathan, the Chesterton Academy of Dayton headmaster, his lovely bride, Jen and 4 kids, 3 of them fosters soon to be adopted in November.

During the flight, we heard about the shooting of President Trump, a providential assassination attempt that failed.  Did that cause the NEC security to tighten up?   Not according to NEC security director, Steve Garcia.

One amazing highlight, suggested by my Daughter in law Jen,  was visiting the JRRTolkien~CSLewis museum in Wheaton, Illinois; two great writers’ desks side by side with a supply of their work.  This is something any Chesterton or Lord of the Rings~Lion, Witch and the Wardrobe fan should not pass up.

June 17~Arrival at Lucas Oil and the Convention/Exhibit Hall about 11am.

Wednesday, first stopped at our beautiful host’s home located 4 miles from the NEC site, such a blessing; and then we had to search for the best place to park, not having previously done so.

We got LUCKY!  God did bless us with the former Hurst factory parking lot, now an event site, that was separate but attached to the football stadium’s parking lot.  We paid $10 a day to park there, a total Godsend.   Easy access and set for the week that ended Sunday afternoon/evening.

Hurst parking lot

After parking, Mary and I walked past the stadium to the registration lines that circled the Exhibit Hall complex.  It became obvious it would be a long time until we registered, so we made the most of the time talking to fellow Catholics in line, families (homeschooling people from everywhere: we had homeschooled our 11 kids for 40 years and with youngest now 21, there was a lot to share).

I must confess, as a three decade former staffer in OC parishes as youth minister, music minister, DRE, OCIA at three parishes, it is in my blood to humbly be available for others.  As you are!!

Corporal and spiritual works of mercy, come to mind. Something our Church communities need, especially in this world dying to know the Truth.  Faith is often better caught than just taught and the better we serve, the better the witness and the hope for others to catch the good virus.

In that vein, I came to Indianapolis, not to be served but to serve others, making myself available to the needs of others.  Apparently, possibly, it was a big mistake I found out two days later on Friday about midday.

Amazing homeschoolers

Registration Lines.

While waiting for hours, we met so many amazing people, nuns by the tons, people old and young, from many states outside the Exhibit Hall waiting to get inside and get our “credentials” as they were called.  I usually call them “nametags” and credentials are your curriculum vitae. Such is life!

Part of the ‘waiting outside’ time, a local pastor from a non-denominational church called Aletheia walked up to me and introduced himself.  The word Aletheia in the Greek means “truth” or “truth revealed” and it is a common name for Protestant churches across our land.

“Sisters, Sisters…”

Pastor Noah, the father of 4 kids under 5, opened our 10 minute dialogue with a very simple theme common in Catholic apologetics: Sola scriptura, meaning faith and Christian truth is only contained in the Bible, selling Jesus and His Chief Promoter short.

Noah was kind and truly concerned for my soul, but I should carry a “Sola Scriptura” cue card, since it is typical starting point to keep Catholics out of hell by our protestant brothers and sisters; much like the ultimate and greatest verse, John 3:16 is seen on screen in the end zone of most stadia, including the Colts’ Lucas Oil especially when kicking extra points against the Saints.

Point is, we discussed our different churches and I shared what the conference was about; he wasn’t getting far with me, but it’s not a game, like big league sports, of gaining points on the other person.  He could sense my convictions and the Socratic method of asking questions does help.

I did tell Noah, as busy at having little ones, ie a father as you are, are you sure you aren’t Catholic?  Of course I invited him to join the church, gave him a card; I told him I have 11 kids and 22 23 grandkids, that Mary and I came to your fair city to celebrate Jesus’ True Presence in the Eucharist and appreciated the time he spent talking and sharing.

My wife and I were in different parts of the line but we knew we’d get caught up eventually.  Having done over 100 retreats in 30+ years, plus youth conferences like pro-life training, Steubenville regional and religious education gatherings in Anaheim, I was used to different registration methods.  I believe the fine NEC leadership tried real hard to plan this out, but due to the massive number, 65000, it would take over 4 hours to get to the table of computers and printers.

Finally, inside the Indy building Day 1! 

Sr Marcina is proof that age, location and SIZE has nothing to do with the definition of life. The mighty MofCharity rock!!

Once inside, we moved like sheep along the outside corridor until we got to the massive multi-purpose hall; there were about 25? long lines, separated by portable dividers, that ultimately would lead to the actual registration tables.   Similar to bank turnstiles, you’d go maybe 100 feet then turn the corner and head back the other way, until the 26th time (a guess), you’d get into the quick moving registration table lines.  All you needed was your name!  Picked up your gig bag with your lanyard nametag (OK, credentials)and schedule. But…

Infographic: The works of mercy - Catholic Link

I had a dilemma: once inside, standing at the back of the huge room, I noticed walkers, wheel chair bound, one blind guy and many folks in their 80s sprinkled among the thousands.

In simple basic Catholic teaching terms, the vulnerable did NOT belong there. If someone on the large NEC 2033 team is taking notes, lets practice “comfort the afflicted” as if it is a current Work of Mercy.

Could this be the mysterious Anne? A wheelchaired nanogenarian got a Fast Pass after hours in line

I first asked a 80s something woman pushing her walker, “how long have you been in line?”  She told me an hour and a half;  I just can’t tolerate stupid, humbly of course, but pick two or three from the “mercy chart” and my dilemma is obvious.   None of these faithful, most seasoned devoted Catholics, deserved to be in the line: so I asked Walker Woman Susan: “would you like to move to the head of the line?”

The relief in her eyes and voice made it obvious:

“Please, this is very difficult for me”.

No one on the NEC team seemed assigned to helping the vulnerable in the Registration Room, so like the energized Catholic I have become known (still check my label:  I’m not dangerous nor fattening or habit forming),

I said “Let’s go!”  And we did!

I lifted one of the aluminum cross pieces off the vertical pole, had her move into the next line and repeated it at the end.  Of course, I replaced the piping each time; as a scoutmaster, you always want to leave your campground or other sites better or the same than when you arrived.

I moved Suzie to the front, going around the side and told the volunteer line monitor she should not be in the line for hours and would you usher her to the table and assist her!  The young lady volunteer graciously said “Sure of course,” and took care of Suzie.  That’s what engaged Catholics do!  We look for the needy, and serve…

Temporary Ambassador of the Ailing…or Concierge to the Crippled?

I headed back to the lines, now apparently a NCom volunteer docent without credentials, since I hadn’t been able to register as of yet; Mary was somewhere back in the line.  I had first spotted a frail older woman in a wheel chair near one of the turnabouts and headed her way.  Next stop was 90 year old Anne.  What’s a 90 year old doing at NEC?  Bigger question, why stuck in line for hours?

Anne looked tiny in her chair; she was flanked by care givers, typically called “family”.  They too had been in line for hours and I had no idea if there was a spot for the less than able to gather, like a Fast Pass at Disneyland or World.   So I asked if they might be interested in moving to the front; funny, I got no complaints from other line walking folks, nor football stadium security who probably watch every move from above…or staff.

They said that would be excellent for our mother; they told me her name was Anne from Minnesocold and she was 90 years old.  One of the three escorting her, pointed out this was Anne’s SECOND National Eucharist Congress, the last one in 1941 when she was 7 years old.  Just Amazing! Where were the headlines!!

Later, I mentioned it to some people I know at relevant radio and also the organizer par excellence Sarah Houde, the former wedding planner turned chief NEC organizer; she mentioned it would be great to get her story.  Another day, I happened to be on the floor below the end zone seats, Sarah was near a colleague, asked if she wanted a pic (she rarely had time I would think), took one and told her I would look.

Some journalist I was, because I did not take info/numbers from Anne’s team; however looking around for her on the floor of the arena etc. I never could find her again.

Of course, I only had two of the five conference days to locate her, but wouldn’t that be amazing if Anne makes it to NEC 2033 at age 99.  I still think the NEC leaders are missing out on not following up on her.  How many 90 year old Anne’s could there be from Minnesota? wheel chair bound? for NEC 2033.  The NEC presumably has computers to search for different participants; they certainly keyed on this 72 year old it turns out.

Back at work, for a total of 24-25 in-line participants, it was a blessing to help!  One situation I missed was a dad separated from his two kids and wife but no success there.

Note that the most ironic man in the line happened to be a blind guy, white cane in hand going back and forth through the lines with his “assistant”.  I asked the man (remember, blind people have ears and can hear) if he would like to move to the front.

He simply said “No thank you.  I’m ok to walk with everyone else”.   His helper just nodded and I knew a “NO!” was final.   Important part of being an engaged Catholic is treating everyone with the same dignity: never assume… because many of you know that when you assume you make an…

I am sure, in nine years, as Bishop Freyer told me in a note, better provision for disabled or seasoned Catholics will be made. Organizing an event like this is very complex. How can we preach to the world about Jesus’ Divine Mercy if we ignore those in need of basic mercy that can be easily given. 

Jesus is serious about Catholics doing good for others, not just in His brother James’ writings.  Imagine if the whole Church learns to put others first, not for fan glory but for the sake of the Gospel, what the world would be like. The Obamanation has been throttled back, restrained for the time: now is the time to revitalize and rejuvenate.

“And whoever gives only a cup of cold water to one of these little ones to drink because he is a disciple—amen, I say to you, he will surely not lose his reward.”  — Matthew 10

The Relevant Radio booth in the Exhibit Hall

Completed the concierge finally, got registered, though sure more would be coming; I finally caught up with Mary and we headed late afternoon to see the sights…ok, visit exhibitors like Franciscan U, Relevant Radio and more.

Mr. Experience Patrick Madrid with two excellent grandkkids at the booth. Cyrus is at the low stage behind the balloons

We looked forward to seeing the different ministries, many of which we have had worked with over the years of parish ministry, as homeschooling parents, re-acquainting with so many.

This was the side benefit of celebrating Jesus IN the Eucharist, the Center of the World, of Eternity, Source and Summit of the Faith after Jesus left and the Holy Spirit energized one Pentecost AD33.

Back when Church upper room lock-outs (actually lock ins) happened out of fear, just as our Church practiced AD 2020-23. STILL residual poison must be cured and cleared.

My fellow Catholics: think about this seriously. Jesus asks us to honor our authorities for they will be held accountable.  But, if a significantly unjust action(s) occurs, we must take action and speak up or more.

How TexasU Med bought “Dr” Theiler’s abortions from the morning for her second job at Planned Parenthood. Parts for her “lab”.  NO charge to ship but livers sold as “Consents Obtained”.   Lies and more lies. 

In California, the godless lefty Gov and Mrs. Newsom shut down the Churches by EDICT which today we know is medical malpractice and lies.

The gender fluidics star still waived and engaged Planned Parenthood volunteers/workers, many from Covered California departments, as “essential workers” so they got a waiver and continued their evil.

Essential workers who rape women with sharp objects by death doctors who harvest smaller organs for resale.  You’ve heard of David Daleiden; I know of David and rejoice with you sir!  California finally ended their persecution.

Yet, the disgrace is private citizen Kamala HAS NOT returned David’s stolen intellectual property taken by 11 goons one April in the past when she was attorney general.

This is my call to all of us being bold, fearless and passionate about our faith and circumstances that surround its practice.  You need not be violent even when you are combatting satanic violence.  But, fearlessness has been called for by Jesus, Pope Saint John Paul the Great, and St Padre Pio P.

Like in the planned parenthood marketplace of ripping prebirth baby parts out and selling them to Texas med units.

~~~~~~~~~~~~Exhibit Hall Wed night

The Pilgrims come in and first night commences….the following is adapted from a blog posted last year on Hugs N Roses 

Lessons of the armless Tony hug & Lila’s Roses at NEC

Looking to the Eucharistic Renaissance. at Jason’s urging, just joined the Society of the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus  I believe “Our Church has got to move beyond passivity ensconced in FEAR if we are to revive the True and Real Presence beliefs and help get more souls to heaven. FEAR..is an anagram for False Expectations Appearing REAL. 

The Renaissance is poised to come…Let’s set the historical worldwide Church suppression timetable:

From Oct, 2019 onward, based on the hegemonic Mao Tse Xi’s (pronounced in the King’s English as Mao Say Cheese) duplicity and evil incubation of SARS/Covid among 11 million Wuhanians.

These city dwellers included infected workers flown to Italian and Spanish companies, owned by China, that aided (recall?) early major outbreaks where?  Italy and Spain.

We can’t overlook massive medical suppression, lies and Dr… Pfaucinstein’s arrogance, while the California Church allowed, tail between our legs, a toddler totalitarian reprobate Catholic tyrant couple, Jen & Gavin Newsom, to do endless evil.

”They locked down schools like loons and worse, talked our Bishops into closing the churchesGet this, NOT in Soviet Russian or atheist communist China, but AMERICA, they locked down all the churches, except for a few unmentioned, like home churches, who defied this nonsense; it really was a wake up call AND theologically, a replay of the First Pentecost upper room lock in.

NEVER again.”  ~anonymous    Same words as the Auschwitz-Berkinau camp posters.  We need to mean it!

And the ultimate ANSWER of Who IS important from eternity onward,  is written in the stars.

Soon to be revealed, God the Father planned before time immemorial His Eucharistic Son’s place of destiny, as the daily bloodless Sacrifice in two common earthen species: bread and wine.  Heralded on the winter solstice, one Dec 25th in Gregory the Great’s calendar, as the day of His first appearance on this earth.

I call Him the Ultimate Gift… what do YOU call Him?

Giza as it appears when the Holy Family fled Herod’s evil and stayed nearby in a Jewish settlement in Cairo.

Leaving nothing to chance, the Father placed the world’s largest stone monument in the desert, sitting at the exact Center of the World that points to the entrance of His Beloved Son’s eternal Eucharistic gift at the House of Bread…of Life.

True GodFatherly Love.   (see the article/blog called “The Theology of Giza” released  for details.  No Len isn’t a conspiracy theorist or wears aluminum hats, just seeking the Truth)

For example, God TOLD us how expansive His real star collection, His universe of celestials, was through Abram/Abraham revelations.

Hindsight seems to be 20/20:  Until the 1620s, humanity thought the sky had at most, about 1000 stars, max, that existed in the firmament/universe; Galileo put this lowballing count to rest.

Just discovered, the stars on Mary’s mantle match the Dec 12, 1531 sky making the filling in easy. Note where constellations Virgo and Leo are!

Yet there’s a Marian star chart, built onto her cactus fiber Tilma, keyed to the night sky of Dec 12, 1531; Mexico City depicting the Virgin and Child, constellation Virgo over her heart and Leo over her womb, the King of kings. and the discernment of the theological virtues.  Yes, there is faith, and hope, but the greatest is:

LOVE!

‘If I speak in human and angelic tongues* but do not have love, I am a resounding gong or a clashing cymbal. 2And if I have the gift of prophecy and comprehend all mysteries and all knowledge; if I have all faith so as to move mountains but do not have LOVE,

I am nothing ‘  ~~1 Corinthians 13…

Now let’s talk Tony.

An old friend, Tony Melendez deserved life, like all young Nicaraguans, Polish, German, Americans…all humans.  Creed and colors are secondarily incidental to the incredibly perfect work of our eternal Creator; with a club foot and no arms, Tony couldn’t qualify to be a priest and probably not so good at basketball.

But, like his Nicaraguan grandma and Pope Saint John Paul the Great, God knew what He was doing…for all eternity, God has made ZERO mistakes.  Just another human child that defies the evil of DEI and the dying world’s definition of success…EVERY human has a place in God’s perfect Plan.  And no one is sans talents.  None.   Tony proves that God will use all that answer His call.

With Tony, look at how he’s changed the world over 37 years, one amazing Catholic icon of hope and healing. Drew Mariani, on a recent show put out a beautiful truth:

“Humility is the Crystal Bridge that leads us to heaven”

Tony fits that bill so well, no more humble servant on earth than Mr. Toe Jam Pilgrim.

I so wish I can be as humble, for we are at a crisis point as a culture and in need of reawakening this Church to boldness, speaking the Truth in Love. NEC and this ambitious movement to reacquaint the body Catholic populace to Jesus’ REAL Presence, can be a part of it, it MUST be a part of it.

Few can deny our Church is decaying in many parts of America and the world…but Jesus is faithful to His Bride.  We’ve gone through much worse times.  ALL hands on deck!

This is no time for “legends in our own minds” and arrogance.  Remember, He washed feet and He was God!  Servant to all.

Please understand, as you read this, humbly, my goal is to encourage others like you the reader to see we are on the ground, looking up as this revival heats up into a Renaissance; no one can deny we are passing through Neo Dark Ages.

Especially the last 4 years…  my friend Steve Hager, the father of a Levi who became a Premonstratensian (ok, Norbertine) named Fr. Louis, at St Michaels Abbey, says it simply: “the solution IS the Eucharist”.

Steve, a member with his wife, Regina, of the Knights of the Holy Sepulcher, is the father of two of my kids’ spouses…Levi was Steve & Regina’s 3rd born son, destined and dedicated to God as a Norbertine today, as is the Jewish tradition in the Torah regarding priesthood and birth order of sons.

The Eucharist is the Source/Flow, the Summit and Center of our Faith…as we can show, Jesus IS the center of time (AD & BC), salvation history and in fact, in a very physical way, the world/planet.

All this is pointed out in the object named ‘Border Middle Fire’ and also known as Giza (see the Theology of Giza), still towering though its brilliant shell was harvested for its pure white cover/ casing stones.

Only a few of the original 144,000 that once graced the world’s last wonder are still attached…below the sand line

Chew on Isaiah 19:19-20 and ruminate this: when the Holy Family fled TO Egypt to avoid the arrogant fool Herod, they stayed in a emigrated Jewish settlement near Cairo. I have no doubt Joseph and Mary, and possibly the young Jesus, saw this marvelous stone gift built 2500 years previously.   Like the show “Chosen”, it’s ok to conjecture.  IF Jesus was old enough at this time:

He would have seen His Father’s enormous monument to Himself, unmistakably the summary of the source of our faith today encased in 2.3 million giant blocks and mysterious carvings, FROM the outside.

An Egyptian tourist destination identified in Isaiah 19:19-21:

On that day there shall be an altar to the LORD at the center of Egypt, and a sacred pillar to the LORD near its boundary. 20This will be a sign and witness to the LORD of hosts in the land of Egypt, so that when they cry out to the LORD because of their oppressors, he will send them a savior to defend and deliver them. 21The LORD shall make himself known to Egypt, and the Egyptians shall know the LORD in that day…

As Catholics, we don’t believe that ONLY what is revealed in Scripture reveals Salvation History; God uses other parts of His Creation to complete His picture, His story.

Giza’s blinding brilliance would be impossible to ignore and possibly retracing the steps of someone going from Cairo to Bethlehem then Jerusalem, the City of David.  Something the Holy Family would have done, leaving the Cairo Jewish settlement to return home , soon after Herod died.  Sadly, thousands of young boys, the Holy Innocents, had to die for a godless arrogant Herod.

What does all this have to do with NEC and the True Presence in the Eucharist?  A lot!

Reawakening KNOWING what is true, for starters. And realizing how totally important the Father ranks His Son as the Ultimate Gift.

We just need more than the recently polled 25% of true believers (out of 100% Catholics) to see the Real Presence AS the True Gift of Jesus and witness to Its Reality; after all, we are the caretaker of the Gift of the Eucharist, while our Protestant brothers and sisters think Consubstantiation or just In Memory, suffices.

It doesn’t suffice, and by their choice, our separated brethren are deprived of so much richness in following the Savior.   As a T-Shirt we made decades ago for our religious ed and youth ministry at St Anthony Claret:

We are here for the Food.  ~John 6   

The Eucharistic Mass, receivable daily, is NOT a mausoleum of ancient rituals but what Jesus required us to partake in.  Something the Father herald from eternity past about His beloved Ultimate Gift that KEEPS ON GIVING!

I believe our Proud GodFather, for the first half of eternity (we exist in mid Eternity), seeks this Role of His Son as well…for he pointed us directly to the House of Bread of Life four millennia ago concretely, with no doubt at all, at Giza.

A royal birth took place at a minor little hamlet 5 miles to the City of Peace: Bethlehem. The House of Bread, as it is known to the Jews; by the way, known as the House of Meat to the followers of Mohammad.  But, this Giza object is yet another, though the world’s largest, prefigurement like manna (the bread of life for the wandering Jews); the wedding at Cana (where water became wine) etc.

Paraphrasing the 2nd greatest commandment, “See a need, meet the need IF you can, than move on to the next!” is how I live my life in year 73...I begin each sunrise with a phrase: “It’s a GREAT day to be alive! Lord, use me as You Will, not my will”. 

 

 

‘DON’T BE DECEIVED BY THE EVIL THAT SURROUNDS US IN THE DEATH CULTURE’ (POPE St JP the GREAT’s words).  See the Good!

Segue: some of you are fans of JRR Tolkien; before we got to Indianapolis last year, we were privileged to go to Wheaton College, where Tolkien and CS Lewis famous desks are preserved side by side with much of their works.  Definitely worth a visit.  As to “good”, in Lord of the Rings II, Sam Gangee utters this encouragement to Froto:

“There’s some good in this world, and it’s worth fighting for”.

Words for us to live by in these end days of the last days.  Whether we have two days, years or centuries more.

In so many ways, we have succumbed to the world’s rule, like it’s the 49th day after the Resurrection or 9 days past the Ascension (Thursday, NOT the West’s version of move it to Sunday because Thursday no one will come!  Secret: they still don’t come as they should on Sunday IF they only knew). 

But, as Pilgrims in this Jubilee year of HOPE, as Hope springs eternal. To this man of Joy, yes!  Don’t let anything get you down.

Uh, my beloved Catholic brothers and sisters, listen to the stats: they already are NOT coming to  the greatest blessings and gifts darkening the Church’s doors ALL Sundays, holy days of opportunity (obligation) and daily Mass.

Mark these words:  this will change for the better! Don’t wait and see>>>> DO! Be a part of the Renaissance.

What great times we are living in, if only we take off the blinders of fear (there’s that word again first uttered by Jesus to His Apostles ) from the godless and the constant lies of the loons, leftists and ObamaaNation of Decepticons and Desolators (excellent definition of what ails us, rooted in Scripture).

Maybe the party of slavery doesn’t, but  I understand bearing false witness is one of the written in stone commands most violated!

Look at hell’s immediate response at the Paris Olympics after NEC shut down; what happened soon after the latest National Eucharistic Congress, acknowledging on the American scene Jesus’ REAL Presence, 83 years out: 1941.  Ask Anne of Minnesota.   She was there in 1941 AND in Indianapolis.

Dateline, Paris: The Olympics starts out with, as the Jesus impersonator called it, the “Gay Last Supper.”  Oh, it was only a Greek myth played out in a former Catholic stronghold, France… never mind the arrangement of four sets of threesomes.  This is how Donna and I positioned adults and teens in the Living Last Supper for over a decade on Holy Thursday nights.

Boy pretend girl punches out Girl for the gold.

…meanwhile Da Vinci turns in his grave. Next, proving Hell’s ascendancy is real, like that fake woman Mr Khelif, the de-emasculation of manhood, husbands and protective men, one of God’s greatest created beings, woman gets pulverized by a sad sick male fake girl punching out a real Italian woman and getting his worthless Gold medal.

A few years ago, an acquaintance of mine threepeated in Olympic gold over 3 olympics, and today she is the mother to 3 beautiful girls. Point is God created male and female, with appropriate attributes and skills.  But evil never rests.

Hell assaults God’s Design every chance the demons get; sounding and appearing like a gleeful Hamasian, the Algerian Imane Khelif both physically and, as later replays prove, obviously sexually abused Italian Angela Carini, and despite the claims he is a DSD Intersex human, he can never have children like the aforementioned 3peater champ of beach volleyball… OR pass the XX chromosome test.

Zounds of Li Thomas….  someone call Riley Gaines!!  Point is, God is NOT pleased; He knew what He was doing when he created this massive universe.  He did NOT need Khelif or Thomas’ help in the design process as consultants.  And He is not happy about our attempts to mutilate women’s breasts and vaginas so Gender Mutilators, MDs can buy a yacht.

Sad was these profane demoniacs practicing their evil craft in a former Catholic land of Lourdes and more…

But, we are called to build others up, especially the Church.  So much spiritual activity, so little time to do it all.  Living sacrifices to get more souls to the eternal heavenlies.

On to Patrick and Tony!  Day 3 July 19th

Friday, July 19th, my wife, Mary and I were enjoying Friday Day 3 of the National Eucharistic Congress; after a glorious Fr Rocky led family rosary and just another incredible celebration of the Real Presence redo, the Mass, we stayed in Lucas Oil Stadium after the beautiful Friday Mass for the testimonials.

In his short time up front, Mr. Experience Patrick Madrid shared two important lessons.

1) His famous six words aid to show the Bible is interpreted by people differently, typically according to their own biases:  “I didn’t say you stole money”.

Another being a story coming home to America soon:

2) In 1950s China, after communist Maoists deliberately tossed consecrated hosts on the church floor,  the child martyr Li daily self administered by tongue one Eucharist each night; she was killed after pressing her tongue to the 32nd and last Eucharist host.  She wouldn’t dare touch the consecrated Hosts with her hands…

Great stories: go to the

 

NEC Manna pay wall site, or relevantradio.com and pull in the relevant radio app for more info.  TY Patrick!

After Mr. Madrid finished, the announcer called out that Tony Melendez was coming up next; I had no idea he was coming to NEC.  I truly was surprised but should have known he’d be there.

Wednesday Registration was busy as a volunteer Concierge for the Crippled and Lame. Busy with so much Catholic opportunities to minister and dialogue with fellow Catholics,  I didn’t read the vast number of choices for ministry, adoration, Mass, confession completely since we bought the tickets and arrived days before.

Mary and I were in the end zone seats, though no John 3:16 placards around, and I turned to my wife and stepmom to 11, Mary and said:

“If they let me…I gotta go give Tony a hug”.

Anyone can hold a For Life! sign with a hand, but your toes?

Impulsive yet instinctive!  My goodness, this NEC is a Catholic gathering of brothers and sisters honoring the Father’s Eucharistic Real Present Son and somehow the blind, wheelchaired and walkered were unattended to for hours of turnstiled lines toward the one minute check-in at the tables. An unforced error by the leadership but that’s where we come in: seeing and filling true needs.

Plus Thursday night, someone had forgotten EVERY woman deserves a rose every day; one of the most amazing Catholic pro life heroes, the storied and voice for the voiceless, Lila Rose arrived on stage sans her namesake: a rose.

That Thursday afternoon Mary and I had headed to Kroger’s, a dozen beautiful reds were purchased for the night’s keynote.

With Lila sharing her conversion to Catholicism testimony, no one put roses in her hands as she came to the podium.

Some unidentified guy in a Sacred Heart Patrol hat tossed roses on stage so as not to disturb her amazing story.

A staffer quickly gathered them up, all 11, and hopefully delivered them to the rightful owner.  (later I found out at a Sept 28th prolife rally didn’t happen.   I asked Lila if they gave her the bunch.  “No, Len, I never got them”.  Another weird thing;  did NOT get the roses from the stage hand or staffer. Maybe the NEC folks were protecting Lila from danger: after all, THORNs have roses as Fr Tang used to say.  Good news, I had a replacement rose that Saturday at Planned Parenthood Tustin, which she gratefully accepted. 

Sometimes, like it seems at NEC, rigid organizational zero tolerance planning gets in the way of the Spirit, and the organism of the bride of Christ misses the most important needs.  Being a doer isn’t always easy to discern.

Stifling the Spirit is something that happens often, but God leaves NOTHING to chance.  His God-incidences occur, like butterflies, appear when you least expect.

Tony’s huglessness is made up with excessive kisses by Lynn…

Tony and his wife Lynn (plus daughter Marisa) are loved by so many; as to my beautiful bride, Mary and I, we’ve been on an adventure, married for almost 6 years and I think Mary’s a bit resigned to her hubby doing the harmless but NOT ordinary.

Kind of like the Church of old, he sees everyone in need of hope and joy on this third rock from the sun.  Spreading the JOY is job 1.  Always.  For all of  us!

Donna, the mom to our 11, in heaven since 49 days short of age 49 on 9/9/11, is probably smirking from above.

One odd thing, butterflies remind me almost daily of Donna’s boundless love celebrated with 1400 at Holy Family Cathedral a week after she had passed away.

Two decades ago, it became the Mariposa nickname for our Faustina, soon to be married before year end on Dec 28th, the feast mentioned above of Holy Innocents. Choice for  the date goes to Elijah, his love for a beautiful reason.

Frankly, the time for Catholic mealy mouth passivity is over, BOLD the effort d’ jour. Corinthians continues; IF we truly love others:

“…If I give away everything I own, and if I hand my body over so that I may boast but do not have love, I gain nothing…”

Maybe a character flaw that embarrasses some of my 11 kids, I try to always encourage and help others seek Christ in all things and when a good friend is in need, I must act IF it can help.  Tony was precisely that person that Friday the 19th.

You can’t see it by his armless demeanor, Tony is one in need, a friend and brother I had not seen in a few years; last time was before Tony and Lynn lost their beloved son, Andres.  Imagine losing your son in his 20s while sleeping; God calls each of us home when He decides…but I believe there is more to the story about Andres’ passing.  Yet, God and only God controls the length of each of our days.

Over a decade ago, God decided my Donna, after 11 kids and time on earth now over,  needed to be moved to eternity 49 days short of 49 years old;but Andres at half that age is just as difficult to understand.

But, you should know, Andres’ birthday was coming just days after Tony’s testimony on stage at the NEC and made this a double opportunity for merciful love of a brother IF the security would allow. Which it did!

Tony’s testimony followed Mr. Experience Fri July 19th; both Patrick and Tony are true St Joseph archetypes working hard for the Lord

It turns out they did give permission:  as the transcript and audio would bear out, they gave Len permission to do a work of mercy for an old friend.  Yes, it wasn’t in the sacred cast in stone script for the stage, but it melded well with Tony’s testimony.

When my Donna went to be with the Lord after a nine month struggle with cancer, she WAS ready and we came to accept this reality: she told me, soon after a healing Mass, Len, I got a spiritual healing tonight but the physical was not to be.”

Chemo, radiation, alternative treatments, tons of prayer since Christmas 2010, Donna finished her last 6 months generously devoting her pain to others’ needs.

900at our birth parish, St Anthony Claret, for her rosary… followed by 1400 at her Holy Family Cathedral funeral Mass attests to her being loved by a wide swath of humans.  Not to mention, the kindness of a family we would soon be related to, gave us the perfect reception for celebration, Steve and Regina Hager.

Holy Sepulcher cemetery’s Jack Nixon told us later Donna was #2 in the number of cars, second to the beloved Carl Karcher of Hardees/Carl’s Jr fame, someone Donna and I honored in years past for his prolife work.

Point is, God uses whom He wills; Tony does more than many sporting both arms to toss a football, get drunk and cheer boys, 11 to a side on the gridiron instead of at Mass many Sundays.  Tony answered the call.

When Tony was born, his grandma knew, reassuring Tony’s well loved crying mom God had plans for her son.

Part of this societal decay, what a great sainted pope called the culture of death, we KILL so many today prebirth because our inane, stupid understanding of what quality of life is all about. Down syndrome kids are precious and the happiest people on earth.  Yet, hell and hell’s demons like in the party of slavery that calls out mutilate and kill them prebirth.

It doesn’t stop there.  Look at school boards spaying our daughters like they are junkyard dogs, installing suicidal ideations into girls ravaged with her breasts gone and her vagina scissor~handed to zero hope… where post pubescence discovery and growing up should reign.

Imagine her torment when she realizes she will never nurse the child she will never bear.

How did we get here?  Part of it, is abandoning Jesus in the Eucharist no doubt.  Let the revival lead to a Renaissance of Love.

Good news: in 2025, Trump exec ordered out the right to mutilate under age human children by the demented death doctors of so called “gender affirming” carelessness.

Yes our world IS decaying before our eyes…but we must take courage and smile.  JOY remains and hope does spring…eternal. The Renaissance is coming.  But WE not them, need to have the confident (not arrogant) smiles and knowledge there IS a Savior they need to know.

These “consent payment” baby parts are more costly than livers; possibly hearts. NOT heads which go for $715 sold to Boston U MedSchool

Tony proves man’s designs and plans are NOT God’s.  Today, in the world of satanists and imbeciles like Kamala and AOC, young prebirth children, built with 30 trillion intricate cells, tissues, organs, systems are routinely killed off and parts sold to planned parenthoodlums, a form of senseless enslavement and baby harvesting.

What was Len’s motivation to step up his service? Read on…

But, for Tony and Lynn, losing an only beloved son in their 20s instantaneously is a tougher burden; another young man we know well took his life, became a germaphobe during Mao Tse Xi’s Wuhan incubated virus days; like so many today, our reaction as a Church coupled with infused fear has created a whole generation of fearful automatons: the Gospel and our personal ministering with the Gospel and Eucharist… ARE the only solution to renewing our Church’s health.  Fr. Louis is absolutely right!

Meanwhile, in the surreal world, the godless party still has a laser carved wooden party plank pushing the killing of prebirth kids for sport now being was broadcast by the Democrat leadership.

Mr. Daleiden’s first Pulitzer

The same woman, governor candidate Kamala, who prostituted herself at age 29 for $166,000 $400,000 in government panel bucks, built a career that included trying to destroy all crisis pregnancy centers.  She forced them to advertise for her satanic kill mills and burglarizing David Daleiden’s small Irvine apartment because she is owned by hell’s lieutenants.  (for the record, David is now OUT and the state of insanity Calif. dropped the charges; now to champion David getting his second Pulitzer)

Strong words?  Just the truth.

Angels in heaven celebrate every time a soul is saved, while Hell celebrates while we major in the minors, too often, now estimated at 67 million, at another abortion.  Demonrats

Here’s hoping the revival begun by NEC will fuel massive renewal, starting with NEC’s 65,000 “6th day” victorious apostles of love and hope like on Pentecost ad33, they became emboldened with the Spirit desire to spread GREAT news to anyone who’d listen. The 4th or 6th day represents the day AFTER a significant faith event like a retreat or Congress when the energized Catholic gets busier.

Our Church undeniably failed somewhat in its response to the tyrants like the sad Newsom twosome, Jen & Gavin, who shut down schools; worse, closed down OUR churches based on med malpractice frauds and we timidly complied with the Pentecost 2020 lockdowns in upper and lower rooms across the state and country.

People of God, NEC vets and everyday Catholics, the time is NOW. 

The fields are flush with humans ripe for the harvest; meanwhile, we squabble over one Lingua Latinam as if the language of Rome suddenly belongs to lucifer; one wonders if our sister/brother, mainly Lebanese,  followers of St John Maron will be shuttered for saying the Mass in the language the first Mass was spoken in: Aramaic.

Only time will tell.  John and James demanded on His heavenly right and left, and today we are incredibly rich, surrounded with so much Jesus stuff…but do our actions match the uttered words? Does the high of the NECongress gain traction? Let’s see.

 Tony blesses us!!  Len heads to the front

I moved quickly  toward the ‘stage left’ side on the right.  On the way, I told some awesome nuns and greeted the missionary of charity sisters if I got permission I would give him a hug from them. 

I stood watching and listening as Tony went through his testimony of a blessed purpose filled life; God gives EVERY human being certain talents, discoverable IF we listen to good counsel and the Holy Spirit.  Tony has so much to give.   Here’s a part of Tony’s ascendance into becoming an opened gift around the world.

A great pope and excellent ToeJammer. The pope is the one standing.

As his testimony portrayed, Tony’s life path was inaugurated one Tuesday Sept 15, 1987.   

In God’s irony and providence, I was privileged to be there in 1987 among the 6000, with our 30 teens from St Callistus parish in Garden Grove, CA

Mike McHenry, RIP, a great man…Tony, Steve, a ToeJam pilgrim and Tony’s brother Jose

If you weren’t at the recent NEC with pictures from the past, and/or don’t know him,  Tony first appeared on the Church scene in LA California.

Hollywood style, Tony first rose up from below the Universal Amphitheater stage that Pope Saint John Paul the Great was standing on.

Bushy head of hair, guitar on the floor, he began strumming with his right foot, left playing the frets and singing a song he wrote for our well loved pontiff.

We all were surprised!  So were the other three US cities on a 4 city simulcast hookup, with each having a gift for the pope and Tony was last in the lineup from the City of the Angels.

Our regional gift was a bit unusual but so typical: God uses whom He wants and with major miracles that defy man and hell’s design, He causes good to overcome cheap evil ways of politicians, tyrants, tenured left professors pushing Harvard Hamas hopeless encampments of Jewish hatred and revisionist history.

So many Scriptures come to mind: Romans 8:28 or “Greater is He that is in you than he that is in the world”.  As this post on roses and hugs should show, “All things work together for good for those who Love the Lord”.

Read the continuation of I Corinthians:

* Love is patient, love is kind. It is not jealous, [love] is not pompous, it is not inflated…

Fast forward to July 2024, though, sometimes there is a kink…despite no complaints over a short Tony hug from anyone in the 30,000 or so, in fact a smattering of thanks for giving him the “hug he could not give us”, from sisters, friends and lay people alike.

Only by relying on God, can greatness increase!

“Tony, you are truly a courageous young man,” this great Pope told him that Tuesday.

“You are giving hope to all of us. My wish is to continue giving this hope to all other people.”  Over the years, he has, travelling to far away places. 49 countries.  

13 years later after his LA Papal floor show, I was privileged to be one of the youth ministry leaders on the WYD 2000 tour that began at Fatima, Portugal and ended in Rome; Tony and another NEC veteran Catholic musician Steve Angrisano led music for Mass and workshops, as we traveled across Europe seeing Catholic sites…like repurposed cathedrals now wedding chapels, and sacred sights Mary appeared at, including a country with a capital Paris formerly heavily Catholic.  How times change!

With a million of our closest friends at the time on the Roman field, we closed the WYD week with a huge open air Mass, celebrated by one of the greatest popes of all time, PStJPtheG.  Next came 2002, across Canada into Toronto.

A new day and new pope, BXVI, 2005 was in Divine Mercy Poland, Czech and Germany, just months after we lost PSJPtheGreat to Parkinson’s.  This story within the story is fascinating as the Culture of Life Pope’s ending covered God’s control of the enemy’s necromantic celebrations.  Odd?  Something you may not have thought about. Read on:

“Little known, the pope was an important part of the last days of the Eucharistic miracle Terri Schiavo Schindler…a Catholic sister treated like one of Kamala’s Catholic targets, only out of the womb already.

God used the end of our beloved pope’s life to overshadow the celebratory evil of the godless Terri killers,.  God allowed his dormant Parkinson’s to go critical hours after Terri died; she miraculously survived, after going 13 days only receiving on the Eucharist three times (from Priests for Life Fr. Pavone, another of the “obedience victims” in this current  pontificate).

“… Thursday, March 31, 2005, after the Pope took terminally ill,  was followed by the beloved Giovanni Pablo passing Saturday night, April 2nd just as the Divine Mercy liturgy finished.   Amazing the intertwining links God has for us.”

George, John, Teddy, Abe and Tony. Tony is the one in black

BACK TO THE NEC.  At the stage stairs, the man with the Sacred Heart Patrol cap chatted briefly with the staffer and said he was going up to give Tony a surprise short hug (if given permission).  Maybe the communications with NEC central was delinked, the staffer let him proceed up the stairs. Who knows; NEC never calls back or answers emails.  So far.

I saw no sign or hint of guys who bench 400 pounds before breakfast…no Colts Cops signaling no one is to go on stage…  Tony had just mentioned “I can’t give you a hug…”   As if on cue…

Does this deserve arrest?  Up on stage, circling around him, I gave Tony a few seconds hug from behind and when he recognized me, I told him but we can give you one, Tony.”

We chatted super quick,  for total of 17 seconds, then signalling for applause for the armless wonder.  He needed to get to his new song, created for the National Eucharistic Congress.        tony’s 17 second video

Decades as a kids theatre dad for our 11, I knew to leave the stage quietly and quickly…then headed back to the end zone to sit with my beloved wife Mary and stepmom to an amazing family.  I greeted the nuns, of course, on the way back to the back.

It was about Tony’s life not mine; but his grief was latent to those who know him.

Nice of Tony to call this dad of 11 a friend, a brother and blessing, something we all are called to, those who call themselves servants of Jesus and Catholic.

Tony then sat down and got his feet in position to wow the crowd…something he does well

Sadly, the audio in the control booth must have accidentally got muted and the NEC did not have time for vetting the friend of Tony’s on stage: one guesses it was easier to kick out a Catholic who doesn’t passively follow the crowd but esteems all as better than himself.    Bizarre, especially when you hear or read the transcript of the ensuing interrogation.   Here are both transcripts, word for word.

Here’s the actual Transcript of Tony’s 17 second hug at NEC

Tony is talking:  “First kiss (from the Pope Sept 15, 1987) a true blessing.  Second kiss my wife’s kiss,,,  A true blessing when it comes to marriage and later on…”

(Len now was on stage behind Tony, I grasp gently Tony’s sides and he turns around to the right)

Tony:  Yes…heeey.  How you doing there?  Good seeing you.  Good seeing you

Len:   Tony can’t give you a hug (spoken to the people).  (but) we can give Tony a hug.  Give him a round of applause…

Tony:  “thank you so much”..You know we have WYD friends…he’s one of the World Youth Day friends I traveled with.  A true blessing”

Len is off the stage and Tony continues.  No gang signs, loaded backpack, just an old guy with a blue hat that says “Sacred Heart Patrol”. Tony knew the hugger.   Fitted in with decades of “I can’t hug you but…”   

Why did NEC kick out the Sacred Heart Patrol wearing hugger?  Then, more recently, why did they, in true Nixon style, erase the 17+ seconds by a purposeful cut and edit, for the “behind the pay wall” testimony on their archival site Manna?   Was the hug an embarrassment to the well organized, timed to the second planning?   Was a 70+ yr old Catholic deemed a heathen or worse, a protestant or party crasher to be erased for doing Catholic works of mercy?   He had permission and the mere act fit in well with the spirit of the event.

Yes, this last bit is mystifying. Why did they painstakingly erase 17 seconds from Tony’s testimony than charge $100 bucks for access?  Bizarre.   Funny, You can still go to Relevant Radio and find the contrabanded Nixonian erased Hug “‘tape” segment is still there.  But not at NEC??

For the record, Fr Hoffman is on the NEC Board of Directors, but he has NO involvement in this odd banishment.  Truth is, NEC knows who orchestrated it but is not telling.  They circled the wagons for an innocent show of hope for a Godly armless man.  Need Proof?  What do you call the effort to edit the 20 seconds but not doing what was promised by their staff security: providing the interrogation transcript and its destinations to the one they threatened to arrest and jail.

See for yourself

Easy directions to see the short clip for the Tony hug no longer at NEC fundraising site:

Go to Relevant Radio website.  Click on the “The 10th National Eucharistic Congress On Demand” button.  Click on Friday July 19th and go to the full day recording.  At hour 3:23:14, Len walks on stage.   At 3:23:22 Len and Tony look at each other after Len taps his shoulders from behind.   At 3:23:24  Len hugs Tony.   At 3:23:37, Len exited the “stage”.

Judge for yourself. Nothing pornographic, seamlessly fits into the testimony.

Editing is commonly used in media these days,  but I recall in the early 80s producing and creating hour long programs/teachings, long before today’s easier but highly useful graphic tech for ministry.

We used 3 giant screens, 10,000 slides and 3 multi-projector stacks.  It was called interactive media then,  with slides dissolving into each other, with text and sound.  Video clips added later.  I had to edit seamlessly with a 3 track Teac desk controlling the slide changes and the story. One was “Now is the Time” with a live birth on the screne. It was shown at different SoCalif. parishes for youth ministry events for a few years, at the Pasadena Convention Center and other “venues”.   Called the “company” Donnel Imagineering ministry (honoring the busy mom Donna of a gaggle of small kids)  through the early 80s.

One dumb question: who at the NEC decided to “dump the hug?” Hugs were common at NEC on the “stage”, at the Exhibit hall and on the streets.  It is a common part of being Catholic, although one of my fave young adults Kevin needed a little retraining on how to hug a young woman.   Was it because it was man to man? I mean, no more Hug Certificates needed because the evil Xi JinglePingle’s covid plan was outed showing medical malpractice and extent effective alternative therapies.

They or he/she, the NEC decision maker must have thought it ruined his or her perfect week long show…or as the chief of football police Billy called it “performers” and performance.  I doubt if he was Catholic, in his defense.  This wasn’t a heavy metal Megadeth or Black Sabbath event but a worship conference.

———-back to the timeline————-

I had no idea what was happening next. 

As I headed back to my seat in the rear, I stopped a couple times, quietly telling the sisters and couples, the Tony hug was from you just as the 60 year old performer had mentioned he could NOT give us.

Though he couldn’t wrap his non existent, Thalidomide UNgenerated, arms around any of us,  Tony is truly one great magnanimous man, although graduating 2024 Thomas Aquinas senior Elijah points out in his thesis the Aristotelian MagMan is Jesus the Christ, our Savior.

Tony, still, a true servant of the Living God.  Blessed with the most amazing wife, Lynn and Marisa and Andres.

God does not seek to glorify the strong and capable; He can use Whom the Spirit discerns will fulfill special purposes.  Especially in a world dying to hear the words of Eternal Life.

Back with my patient wife Mary who always has her first husband’s back; however, ten minutes later the tap on the shoulder came.

The Perp Walk and Interrogation Process

Three Lucas Oil Stadium Cops,  football security officers? told me to “follow them”. Cops tell you to move, you move, even mall cops on Segways name Kevin.

You’ve seen it watching Monday or Sunday football, or in the stands; noisy adult beverage laden fans raising holy hell around themselves. Get yanked and ushered to the parking lot.  Only I hadn’t been drinking…and as the chief of police stated multiple times, I had permission to be up there and Tony confirmed my immigrant status as a toe jam pilgrim who traveled with him.  I only knew Tony, as of last Sept 15th, 37 years.

The officer said “Follow me.”

As you have, I heard that many times before in the Gospels, and I simply complied (always a good idea when police ask you to comply even in a Catholic worship event) but they took me to their security room near the first aid station, behind the seats for our command session.

His follow me apparently NOT to fish for souls…NO NEC officials in sight, which one would expect, especially at a Catholic revival: mature adults, even ones like Len, usually can look a man in the eye and ask why?  explain why the NEC hierarchy decided, without facts or explanation, Len, you gotta go. You were not in the script, just a paid sojourner from Orange County.  Judge, jury, verdict, gavel.   Gone!

Something even the lowest member of the NEC team could have done before targeting a paying customer for unilateral banishment. I wasn’t even a shudder  “Protesting protestant”.

Then for weeks now months after, ignore repeated requests for a report long promised.  Amazing what $700 doesn’t buy these days; must be Bidenflation.

Along the perp walkway, I asked the football security guys what they wanted and was cordial but greeted with the non conversational; I wasn’t their usual meth head or drunk Colts fan apparently.

Recall, the words of Paul in Corinth continue:

(Love) is not rude, it does not seek its own interests, it is not quick-tempered, it does not brood over injury, it does not rejoice over wrongdoing but rejoices with the truth.

Still no NEC team members, unless they hid in the shadows.  AS we arrived, in the security room was a woman with a laptop at the table; she told me the boss would appear soon and asked for my license, which I provided and the “chief” as they called him came in.  He began asking questions:

… from the security chief:

“did you know we could have tackled you just now?”

(cute: this is Intimidation 101: get the perp to cower and sweat)

I said, of course, you are the police and hired security and are there to protect those on stage and the participants. But…

My Dumb question: then WHY would you give permission for ascending the side stairs?

Was it to do a little Colosseum action like in Gladiators’ days?  If tackled, it easily could be a trip to the hospital or worse, but being on their Watch list (I discovered later) could have fueled a testosterone burst by the boys in blue.

What they, nor I, did NOT know at the time, on St Michael’s feast day Sept 29th, I would have a heart attackthat required a stent after unblocking the ‘widowmaker’ artery.   So, maybe death was not off the table should they have played “cops and old man” hitting the stage floor.

Of course, I thanked him for not…  I’ve never played professional football and it might make an interesting show, but oddly, despite Tony saying I was a friend and brother on stage, less than an hour later, I was treated like a terrorist or a secret Satanist trying to steal the Eucharist… and obviously learning a lesson.  I did apologize hoping for a CAtholic NEC human to appear. The saddest truth is I am treated better by security at my decades long mission at Planned Parenthood Tustin @ 22 in the OC.

Conform or get punished; zero tolerance for an unwritten rule never mentioned.  Be careful whom you show kindness to.  The usual lies against spreading the Gospel joyfully.

What I didn’t tell my interrogators was if they listened to Tony’s last words, calling me a brother and friend, just maybe they would have made a call to their NEC bosses for advice who might be hiding in the shadows… but God was in control, I was at peace and ready to go back to my seat once it was resolved…

Rush to Judgement.  A common ailment today

Recall, Mother Teresa coached us followers of Christ with these words:

 “”If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives: Be kind anyway. If you are successful you will win some false friends and true enemies: Succeed anyway. If you are honest and frank people will try to cheat you: Be honest anyway. What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight: Build anyway. If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous of you: Be happy anyway. The good you do today, will often be forgotten by tomorrow: Do good anyway. Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough: Give your best anyway.” ~ Mother Teresa

There are costs attached to the benefits of loving Jesus; Mother Teresa focused, not on the millions in the streets of Calcutta the reporter asked about, but “one at a time”.

These words of St Mother Teresa MUST be taken to heart: the road ahead to bring Jesus back to center stage for most Catholics, worshipped as the True Presence, will NOT be easy.  But, we MUST!!   Success in spreading the Gospel, should you look at Beautitudes #8 or 10th,  is not always smooth. Sacrifice follows Prayer in the Dictionary of Life.  I wasn’t there the whole time in Indianapolis as you know, but not sure how many speakers spoke of the road ahead WILL be bumpy IF we are doing God’s plan for our lives.

Interrogation Central June 19 2025

40 days (now 8 months) and counting later, I STILL HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO VERIFY IF THE NEC, DESPITE MAJOR ATTEMPTS, IS EVEN AWARE HOW ONE OF THEIR EARLY TICKET BUYERS AND SOLID CATHOLIC’S WAS TREATED BY THE ‘LAW ENFORCEMENT’ TEAM. Zero return calls or emails from NEC central, Bishop Cozzens on down.  Even Sec Chief Steve Garcia’s priority package came back unopened.

Certainly,  I was not another 20 year old delivering an earshot heard ’round the world…but fear IS a motivator and killer in itself.  Despite a great pope’s oft repeated “Be not afraid” or my fave bilocating confessor saint, Padre Pio: “Pray, Hope, Don’t Worry”.

Head officer, identified as chief of police, who didn’t really look like Chris Bailey, the new acting Indianapolis chief of police at the time,  continued:

“We noticed you had talked to the boom camera operator and didn’t perceive a threat”.

Talk about a comment out of left field.  I conceded I wasn’t a threat  (what beat a security guard senseless with my Sacred Heart hat?) and what my conversation with a hardworking staffer had to do with being pulled from my seat, I had no idea.  The chief of brawlers continued and explained:

He next asked “why did you do it?” and “What were you thinking partner?”  Intone the creepy shivers, Big Colts Cops are watching your every move, a lesson I learned with his next words.

“We were watching you, having seen you toss roses on stage last night.” Ahh, the tell and the reveal are one and the same.

Wow! A bouquet Rose tossis now a terrorist indicative act?!?  More importantly, the lightbulb, tho dim in my brain that day, went off in my head. I’m on a Watch list that began when?  Was it Wednesday helping the vulnerable? Outside and inside?

It came out they had started a cumulative Terrorist Watch file the night before or was it even before that on Wednesday helping the blind and lame? To this day, I have no idea.

It’s time to appeal to Caesar apparently to get this resolved.  As you might have read, NO not one, member of the exclusive NEC hatchet team has made contact this February 2025

As a chest beating show of his position, the chief let this “I have power!” fact slip out, which is a good thing: the NEC was not in danger from the Sacred Heart Patrol hatted old guy; the people were  protected by super facial recognition tech, terabytes of processing and storage and the best cyber tools, apparently second only to the protection of the Holy Spirit.  Even AI probably had its role.  But robots should never replace homo sapiens sapiens abilities.

At age 72, a planned parenthood sidewalk regular and dad of 11, PapaLen to 22 grandkids, I knew more was at work here, a lesson for all of us: as we wake up and leave our passivity behind, boldness without the left’s usual violence IS achievable. 

Decades working in prolife roles, including three decades on the board, many years as president, of a crisis pregnancy center, had prepared me for knowing: HELL is not dormant and very active, even at the NEC.  Abortion lovers’ sacrament is the dead child; their protection is supernatural but not Godly, spawned in the pit of hell.

We MUST have trained eyes and instincts these days, even among 55,000 65,000 minus one, make that two on fire Catholics, because my wife elected to leave as well.  She didn’t have to, but she did.

We lose people from the Church for far less treatment than I and Mary indirectly married to a guy like Len, experienced from our so called Church.  We are going nowhere, the Church is our home…Not a chance with us, but we as the Bride of Christ MUST improve our serve for next time IF there is a next time for a national event like this.

Roses and hugs are NOT acceptable at a sooo well planned event, orged down to single layer molecules, orchestrated well.  No room for change.

Maybe, with Tim no longer in charge or Jason the new CEO, the NEC leadership could explain, because we NEVER heard back if my pulled credentials could have been restored (as if Divine Mercy was somewhere in the House of Colts,)  so we could finish up an incredible revival week of Eucharistic Thanksgiving that the Proud GodFather is pleased occurred.

NEVER happened.  But I have promised MY report even if they stiff arm me from getting my promised copy of the interview.  Ok, interrogation.  There are reasons I need it and grandstanding is NOT one of them.

Anyone know someone at the NEC for answers?

Still asking.  Might be useful information for the next US Eucharist Congress in 2033.  The registration drudgery was an obvious fail, but resolvable; Bishop Freyer assured me it would be remedied in a note he sent me after the event.  Bishop Freyer is a good bishop but not on the NEC team.

But, how do you respond when an obviously involved Catholic dad did NOT “intrude, disturb or disrupt” the participants who thought it was part of the plan and program. You could easily verify this IF you hadn’t scrubbed the 17 seconds from your Manna pay wall site…

People of God, this is MY cross to bear; absolutely no complaints, the police did their job, though their transcript would show odd confusion on their part; as most security and police agencies will attest, it is not easy, as if it ever was, to do events like this.

My question is not for the beer brawl bouncers with badges and guns, but with my brothers and sisters in the faith, the NEC hierarchy, those we paid substantial pecunia to, to celebrate and learn.  Paul speaks further across the millennia:

“it does not rejoice over wrongdoing but rejoices with the truth.

7It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things…”

8* Love never fails.

“If there are prophecies, they will be brought to nothing; if tongues, they will cease; if knowledge, it will be brought to nothing…”

Since these gentlemen and ladies of the law handle Colt beer brawls in-season and the upcoming heavy metal concerts, one can understand they might have a zero tolerance for people doing different things. Like hugs and roses.  Hugs N Roses, a new rock band?

I was told, it wasn’t due to a gun shot heard worldwide per Steven Garcia, super security chief in interviews regarding his security apparatus.  I sent him a package by Priority Mail; it was returned a month later. I’d be happy to provide it to Bishop Cozzen’s office as proof I’m not a crackpot loser blaming the Church for all ails and evils.

The earshot heard around the world as I got on an LAX jet the Saturday July 13th early AM DID NOT  impact their “threat level.”  Why would Steve say this to the world if it WASN’T true.  After all, words have meanings.

However, with good police work, when most victims don’t call their victimizer friend and brother a blessing, you might make another call to the NEC head of excessive enthusiasm and joy for thumbs up or down. Or have them listen in if they feared a face to face.  That blue hat can be intimidating it seems.

   In fact, hired gun head of all security Steve Garcia stated specifically in interviews there was no need to change their plans due to Trump’s assassination attempt

Frankly, I am patient.  I’m still not even sure the NEC was aware, because I NEVER heard back in time to seek forgiveness or beg so my wife could enjoy the rest of the CAtholic experience she looked forward to. 

Neither alternative is good. If they did not know, and their security force lied, called an audible for  you football fans, and said the NEC wanted the Tony hugger kicked out or arrested, then the leaders need to be very careful who they hire in the future. Mixing the secular with the faith filled… grow a couple and speak the truth.

If they did know, and signaled thumbs down or the middle finger like happens so often outside planned parenthood kill mills, then some serious retraining or firing should ensue.

I did try, though at a disadvantage since locked out of all the NECemail a couple times that Friday and early Saturday to a contact (Sarah Houde) i had at the NEC and hadn’t heard  if my credentials could be restored…or at least get my nametag back.  I didn’t bother Relevant Radio, Tony or other presenters and participants, for it wasn’t their issue. NOT desiring to make this a big issue just get a little justice and a better explanation than you are a terrorist risking the Congress. Still hoping despite the NEC cone of silence, to get permission to return.

I was still in a bit of shock, trying to figure out what to do next.  Remember, I would be arrested if I was in the stadium, exhibit hall and presumably the church across the street.  Without credentials, the eucharistic procession was no longer on the possibilities list.

Email attempts to get back in.

Len to Sarah after the expulsion: 7/19 12:41Central  Sarah, thank you for the amazing work you’re doing for the NEC. Also, thank you for trying to find Anne who attended the June 1941 national Eucharistic Congress in Minnesota Saint Paul area. She was seven at the time I pulled her from the line with her family so she would be in a wheelchair somewhat fragile at age 90 and with probably three or four other family members.
After we talked, I was looking around the stadium and the exhibit hall to see if I could find that family. By the way, I hope I didn’t cause any heart or physical injury to anyone, but I did toss those roses to Lila Rose on Thursday night. I also had not known that my old buddy Tony Melendez was going to be one of the testimonials.
I bought my tickets last November (2023)and have not done a good job of following up on the thing (itinerary); anyways I did go up on stage, I did give him a hug Tony for the years. I known him since 1987 when he first came out of the floor at Universal and LA, mentions a simple thing I can’t give you a hug; so I gave him a hug from the audience for all the sisters and others and I know it probably made things a little bit difficult because I did get us shxxt over to the security office was interrogated better way to put that we just had a conversation and I won’t be back to the convention. I’ll maybe see you at the next one in 30 or 40 years.  I had my credentials removed. My wife is still there and I do apologize for any pain or injury I’ve caused, however, I will not apologize for giving some love roses and a hug to two great people I’ve known over the years. I did travel with Tony and Steve Angrisano  at World Youth Day 2000, 2002, 2005 and other events that I have sponsored him to come to.
I do ask that everyone pray for that family Lynne and Tony and for his son Andre, who passed away in his early 20s.  Tony as you probably know is a Catholic icon no different than some of the relics that we know or some of the is that are around the world. Tony just keeps on giving no different than Lila Rose, who mentioned Saint Joan and I’d like to mention Lauren Handy, who also faces prison

Sarah, God bless your work ,if you want to restore my credentials. You can call or text me at 714-2671413 or 7147743339.   If I don’t hear from you, I’ll make other plans. There’s no problem. I’m very content.

After all, I do spend enough hours during the course of the year at Planned Parenthood handing out roses so that when women stop as they come out of the kill we can actually help them make a decision that saves the life within. You are part of an incredible event. You’ve worked so hard for three years. All I ask is that you have a great and adventurous future and thank you for the gifts that you’ve given all of us.
I won’t start rumors; the officers were very cordial in their interrogation, which is more of an interview, and I explained the story; Keith, the officer who answered me out, was very kind. He did say my wife Mary could continue to be at the event that Mary Beckman and she did she still enjoying it I will not darken the doors of the convention center. You know the exhibit hall north the Lucas oil not because I am a ram fan but primarily because I do honor so it seems I should ask permission instead of seek forgiveness (which I did). God bless there’s been so many special things that happened
Because I got kicked out including a witness to a whole group of staffers for the convention center, and some mighty great people I’ve met on this adventure here in Indianapolis. God bless Len Beckman dad of 11. Grandfather of 22. Catholic Homeschooler for 40 years. Imperfect soul and blessed with a stepmom wife named Mary who said yes five years ago ; Sarah wishing you the best all that God is offered you and Life presents. Thank you.

Sarah auto email response: 7/19  I am on site in Indianapolis for the National Eucharistic Congress! Response time to emails will be delayed. I hope to see you there!    Peace, Sarah

Len to Sarah:  7/19 Sorry Sarah. Oops. Siri interpreted my words regarding that Latin word sh…t. I did not proofread as I was driving. Great seeing you, Sarah while getting a video feed of my bishop Tim Fryer from orange County and a few of his closest friends  God is good; the church is very much alive and those deep theological questions I can wait on until heaven for answers

Len to Sarah 7/21 6am central Sarah:
I had not heard back since (first try) Friday about 1:30 PM about the possibility of returning to the Congress after the NEC leadership review what are fine oiler officers had felt necessary to remove me from the stadium and exhibit hall areas until Monday.
 I still do not know if any NEC leadership authorized my removal, or had any knowledge since the oiler officers relied on advanced cyber technology to find me within 10 minutes of leaving the stage after giving Tony the hug.
I honored the four officers request since I would’ve been arrested should I return to oiler properties; I emailed you, nothing in 90 minutes nor the last two days. Ie To stay away.
I know you’re busy, and that is why I took that one picture of you with one of your favorite prelates which you now have in your possession.
I do not seek a refund for myself, but should you evaluate, in case you did not know that I had been booted, happening after giving my long time friend of 40 25 years Tony Melendez on stage a harmless armless hug., IF my explanation and calls was just, my cause was just., please donate whatever funds you find just, to Bishop Fryer and Bishop Vann‘s favorite charities.  Times they are a changing and I am no victim nor desiring sympathy, but I am requesting Justice as any good revival that is now ongoing demands
I paid full price in November of last year of $700 for two tickets no discount. I am not a part of, nor was I invited as part of the orange diocese contingent.
However, should the NEC executive committee of which you are the leader decide, please donate whatever portion you would believe is just for the two full days I was excluded as well as my wife who very much enjoyed the experience.
Have mercy on Mary since five years ago, she said yes to being my 11 kids’ stepmom and grandma Mary to our 22 grandkids. Two soon to be adopted pictured below
Since we have not heard back, and on the feast of Daniel the prophet, and the readings shadowing Jesus as our Shepherd, Mary and I will attend morning mass in Dayton.

Enjoy the rest of the Congress and please when you do your debriefing, in your notes, please create an ambassador to the alien and ailing or a concierge to the cripple to the walkers, the wheelchaired , the drunken sailors and the blind, and no,repeat NO person less than able Should enter into a registration line, especially a four hour one.
My guess is my activities of pulling these grateful people from the lines, especially the 85-year-old woman who was in a walker for 2 1/2 hours and 90 year old and from the St. Paul Minnesota 1941 Congress age 7 at the time, the Oilers officers began a profile on me with the Oilers officers security program.

In my interview, (it was not an interrogation because I love the police and they were just doing their duty with or without any NEC inter face) the chief mentioned they continued to build a dossier of sorts re: my tossing roses for Lila Rose, which I’ve explained, and the fact that they did not tackle me, even though I asked the attendant at the base of the stairs if I could go up and give Tony just a quick hug.

These guys were excellent since after all, they handled the beer, brawls and Oilers games and have two upcoming heavy metal concerts.
By the way, anyone that you expel from the future Congress, which at age 72 I probably won’t have the privilege like 90-year-old and who attended the St. Paul Minnesota 1941 celebration of Jesus in the Eucharist.
Sorry about the length, but wishing you the best. My pro life work, including Planned Parenthood and other delicate situations with 40 years of excellent groups, participation as a board member, and the various organizations, have hardened me in a good way that I peacefully went along with the officers when they pulled me from the seat, and took me to the security den.

No disabled should have to endure that (next Congress) if we’re trying to be a witness to the world about the real presence of Jesus.

Interestingly, it was only the blind man that wanted to continue in line.  May God bless and the revival intensify. Interestingly, being kicked out, led me on my route back to my parking near property a chance to witness to seven event personnel about noon on Friday who had questions about what was going on inside, the Eucharist, Catholics in general and I did invite them  to join our church after eight minute or so conversation, God is alive and the church is very much not dead!  Ava and Olivia say hi and wish you the best. Len Beckman.

————end———————–

The obfuscation is NOT over, Bishop C et al.  Here’s why

  Now that the sets are down and shipped, the show is over, the best thing, would be the NEC to KEEP its PROMISES and provide the interrogation report.  Couldn’t cost that much nor involve that much time.  UNLESS they are trying to bury the story and report; something sadly our Church has had a habit in the past.

Why do I suspect so?  Well, when I purchased the Manna to see the other speakers and events, I noticed a minor change to the record: the 17 second segment of Tony’s hug was scrubbed, edited out.  Even though it added to the testimonial and story, a reasonable man theorizes they are hiding something.  Other hugs throughout the event were NOT edited out. Was it because this 73 year old  Catholic apologist wasn’t on the NEC “A” list of dignitaries and acceptable Catholics?  Trust me, friends, I am not a “legend in my own mind”.  I know my place and work hard, as you do, to spread the Gospel with enthusiasm, boldness,fearlessness, compassionate passion.  Did the fake Police Chief (a lie) Billie request the video clip removed.  Was it Jason, Steve Garcia, Tim? It wasn’t my local bishops…

Did they “lose” the interview/interrogation (on purpose)?  That, my friend, is very sad for a supposed important Eucharistic movement to actively change history.  At least they are not changing His Story…

Maybe I will see it in time for my 81st birthday at the next Eucharistic Congress in country in Minnesota Anne’s 99th year and 3rd Euch Congress, I can come off the “do not fly” list…  But, so many other things have priority, but when Tony called me brother and friend BEFORE i was perp walked, they might have consulted with the Catholic side of the house. NEC

Maybe they saved a job by kicking me out, as my son David posited, by having me removed from the Church gathered that day (NO martyr nor victim be I); I will never know until NEC makes contact IF they ever will; it won’t be the first time some members of my Church has failed me and my family, nor will I never fail my Church as well.   The priest abuse of a sibling comes to mind, but he remains involved as a good Catholic.  Jesus built His Church on the shoulders of failure prone humans because He knew us better than we do.

I can’t believe they really feared an old guy with a Sacred Heart patrol cap, no weapons but the Gospel in his heart… In their view, their inaction could have led to me escalating, maybe without permission, giving some of my past ministry friends a hug or flowers, hugging them like I did Tony…but trust me, I carried no C4 laden backpack, a passport to 72 Virgins in the next life.

But I am a friend of just law enforcement, don’t hate yet only despise baby killers like KamalAbort Harris and her ilk.

Trust me, with 11 kids willing to express opinions, this dad got opinions, which I forever appreciate.  Especially my Ohio daughter in law before facts came in: “They should have tackled you!” Touche!

We raise our children, the next generation, to discern, think critically, use their God given talents and brains to sort through morals, develop character and in THEIR, not mine, begin leading. One or two thought I should have been tackled.   I value their telling the truth inside their opinions.

In the song of yesteryear, all of us must look to:

“Jesus, reduce me to LOVE”

  But until the facts are all in, it is incumbent on me to say the truth:

GREAT Event.  Fruits coming in in baskets. Looking to pilgrimage in 2025 from Indiana to LA; 2033, next American Eucharistic Congress.  And the discovery of the 2 timer, 90 yr old Anne of Minnesota.

That is IF I am not banned from participating in the next part of the journey? Your team asked what were you thinking, Len. I answered that question.  So I ask the same thing, what the heavens do you do to prepare for next time, streamlining the registration, giving aid to the disabled, making sure no hugs or roses stain your Eucharistic interpretation.  Put CATHOLICS in key roles to interpret actions since hell is always at the ready to destroy good.  Don’t overdo Hollywood next time.

I remained peaceful and content, knowing I was in Good Hands (not Allstate, tho they insure much).

My good friend, travel partner, fellow lover of Jesus, the Church, helping others often,

Tony messaged me later he had heard I was arrested. I messaged back, that “No, things were fine…keep doing the great things you are doing.” 

My brother and friend Tony is so caring, always worrying about others.  I didn’t want to worry him since he had work to do. Ok, a white lie is still a lie but it wasn’t Tony’s fault the NEC leadership had issues.

Why the Roses thursday nite?

Ever hear of this future saint of Life, Lila nee Rose? Facts matter: a confessional disclosure regarding the roses: guilty as charged.  I still believe God’s greatest most complex best designed being is woman. And EVERY woman deserves a rose…every day.  Or at least a Spring bouquet.

With Mary, I bought a dozen roses Thursday afternoon at Krogers near the NEC stadium, and brought them thru security (no thorns set off alarms) with no problem Thursday night, July 18.

They were destined for Lila Rose, but she already was on stage and talking; the purpose was, as a surprise from her husband Joe, to keep up a tradition I had begun many years before, that never seemed something for the CIA or Colt Cop blue to track. Thorns with roses.

How many arrests do the ice rink officials make in the crowd when the prima ballerina on blades is tossed roses by the nursery full?   None?

Security picked up the bouquet but apparently it did not delivered, because I witnessed a staffer reach down.  The note had her name…and after all, she was a Rose before her excellent marriage.

Security and the NEC saw them as a threat?  Do either realize just how powerful a rose is?  And how silly they sound?

For example, in the hands of a sidewalk counselor offering them to a woman leaving PP in a car, they most often stop to take the rose and are given life saving information at Planned Parenthood, Orange CA that takes business away from the chief baby killer Jon Dunn who services two counties of female victims.  Roses got a friend Lauren Handy by hell’s justice department, a 54 months sentence in the Tallehassee federal pen.  For GIVING roses to the vulnerable in DC.  Maybe the NEC F-troop cops got training from Merrill Garland and his ilk.

Adopted daughter Maria, the military wife Lila and my beloved Briana at a Downey area Prolife conference…and Rose#1

 That Thursday, Already beginning her witness talk, I had no intent to interrupt, so I quietly tossed them on stage away from the podium, later picked up by the staffer.  I was hopeful she got them, since there was only 11 left after a nun/sister behind Mary and I requested one in the crowd.

How do you say “No!” to a consecrated religious even if they are destined for a future saint Lila on stage?

But NOTHING escapes the Lucas Oil eyes, cameras, surveillance drones etc.  NOTHING even a rose.

My annual rose bill is way higher than most drunken football fan or sailors pub bill, because I ‘gift’ them out, one by one at Planned Parenthood Orange, for the sidewalk workers, and,  as women drive out of our local abortion constabulary. No brag, just fact.

Something EVERY Catholic can do; in California, Staters and Trader Joe’s sells ’em for life. Roses SAVE lives, whether on stage, married to a military man, with 3 kids…or in the hands of a pro life servant.

Most drivers, usually the culpable man, stop, because the lady inside instinctively wants the rose, no matter what happened the minutes before inside Sangers satanic kill mills.

No matter what transpired inside the abortuary to the victims, vulnerable mothers and the status of their child, each is offered a rose and an information flyer covering all options. Hell has lost the war, but the battles continue.

Lila Rose - Husband and wife. 2 years today. To many, many... | Facebook

An officer and his beloved

ROSES SAVE LIVES.  For example, some couples in the car decide to keep their kids and never come back to Sanger Hell; others need post Kamalabortion counsel.  “See the need etc.”

At least they have a chance to hear the truth and give informed consent to life after being lie to and deceived by the Gruesome Newsom Twosome’s two step.  I remember one recipient, telling me as she accepted the rose: “I don’t want to hurt my baby.”  I told Alicia, noticing the ultrasound pics between the front seats, ” you won’t especially since you won’t have to come back to this hellhole.”  She and Greg left grateful and since have borne a child in another nearby state.  Praise God for another life lived!  Please prayer warriors, 40days, LiveAction slow down on saying we “saved” another.  The Holy Spirit did the saving, we the willing vessels do all we can for it to happen.  But we are the instruments.

55,000 65,000 on fire Catholics will make a difference; its ALL of our abilities to respond, to help women not get injured or killed as their precious prebirth children are massacred inside them inside the Planned Parenthood Kill Mills.  Of course our purists will stick their fingers in their ears if you mention Trump.  Odd how we Catholics preach metanoia, change but give little provision, even after successfully protecting life for 4 tormented years. 

In case you haven’t heard, Melania IS a Catholic but sending mixed signals on life.  When Hillary asked “who painted” the OLGuadalupe tilma, the Mexican priest answered simply: “God!”

Here is the First Lady with the Second Eve. A Catholic woman like this influences our future current & past president, immensely one hopes

Melania is pictured leaving flowers at the feet of a tall Second Eve statue below

Truth be told, this bunch that Thursday was to be my 3rd and final rose donation for the Rose of Lila lady because NOW it is husband Joe’s job.

At two conferences over ten years, I gave her a rose from the “guys”. At the Steubenville conference, my  youth ministry guys chickened out about going up and handing her a rose…so did it myself.  In case you never knew:

For years I’ve preached:  EVERY WOMAN DESERVES A ROSE EVERYDAY,

…it is a simple way to value the invaluable precious: Womanhood.  For example, you probably have heard the faux science climate change 100 times before being told women ARE the final created being that led to millions, then the Ark and Flood, then now 9 billion less than the 2.2 BILLION kill mill kill offs already dead, buried but not forgotten. That’s a mouthful.

Everyone should know, God left His absolute best for last, the last act of general creation. He did the simple first: light, stars by the billions, insects by the trillions, animals including skunks and plants, then a muddy male type we know as Adam.

It WAS worth the six day (or to placard the insecure, billions of years evolutionary crowd) wait.

The immensely intricate design of the first working model, a 50 trillion celled woman, first example called Eve, that can provide, with a husband’s help, a new life to further the survival of mankind.  She lost her second born at the hand of her first born, but God chose her to lead the human race, be the first.

Our world is literally dying by the influencer degrowthers, depolulationists: 50 nations are one generation away from obsolescence, going the way of the doo doo birdand so many think kid killing prebirth is like getting a latte as your mani-pedi proceeds.

 It’s not: it is destroying the earth’s RACE

This design work left God to take the next day off and rest.  After all, He just created the most intricate, most complex being on earth.   Ok, your billion year evolution fans or 6 day Creation, it doesn’t matter as much as God wants ALL to live happily forever and ever and…

“I’m no victim and I accept the results of the hug and roses as my cross to bear.” Is that apology sufficient to satisfy, family, NEC, Colts Cops?

I still don’t know who objected to Tony getting a hug, but I would be happy to give both of them a crisp $2 bill decorated with the blood of 53 signers who gave life, family and wealth for the privilege of 60,000 to gather in Oil stadium.  If ignorant about the $2, look at the reverse side.

But roses for a Rosemother and Hug for a harmless armless Tony did have consequences.  The intake lady took my license, typed a report which some day I may get a copy of, as promised.

So much for Roses…  Chief interrogator continues:

As the chief of police continued, he told me he was not going to arrest me but should I darken the Lucas stadium or Exhibit Hall again, I WOULD be arrested.   I got down on my knees and pled for mercy.

Ok, maybe not. I wondered where the Godly Catholic NEC staffer was hiding, like the wizard of Oz famed “behind the curtain” screen.  Yes, I felt betrayed and now that I know they scrubbed the few seconds on the video record from the record, I better understand they ARE hiding something.

Please don’t mistake this for arrogance; there is NOT enough time left on earthfor wimpouts and mealy mouthing the Gospel. And with the Super cybersecurity devices and cameras everywhere, it’s obvious when he mentioned a dozen (actually only 11) roses I tossed up a day earlier, he started a dossier on the guy with the Sacred Heart Patrol hat.

Future action items to resolve:

1)  I may have to open an FOIA request with the Indianapolis police department’s new chief to get to the bottom.  They promised the interrogation transcript/report and have never complied. They claimed it will come from NEC, but the NEC will not respond.  I’ve gotten better treatment at Planned Parenthoods than I get from my fellow Catholic leadership NEC after paying $700 for two days of a 5 day tour. Gilligan’s Island comes to mind.

2) What are you hiding by scrubbing the recording?

3)  Are you able to tell the truth?

4)  Does ANYONE at the NEC take responsibility for resolving this?

I do love my son deeply but my oldest thinks I come across as a crazy person EVEN though I got permission…and should just drop this.

We already know how the beautiful Ohioan mom of 4 weighs in: Tackle him!!

Humbly, this is not about me.  It’s about the stacked deck against religious freedom, against any Catholic witness, only secular religions like satanism, killing kids for sacramental Satanic Mass re enactments, etc are allowed. The definition of communism is foolish godless Socialism pushed by the father of lies.

You’ve heard the “devil” is in the details; so are the angels.

Time to confess I have the audio, even if the NEC is hiding it: Since I was surprised at the end zone, I had my phone voice recorder already going in my front pocket.  I still need the details what the renegade cops did WITH their interrogation, but a transcript of the audio recording of the Colts Cops treatment of your Catholic brother and co-participant follows:

Other then the Colts Cops and an unknown NEC human who hid and never went face to face with his (or her, the other sex/gender) accused Matthew 18 style, Again:  NO ONE COMPLAINED.  THE 30,000  THOUGHT IT WAS PART OF THE PROGRAM. As promised, I WILL GIVE A $2 BILL TO EVERYONE WHO PAID TO GET IN WHO COMPLAINED, ONCE I PICK UP THE $4 IN 2’s TO RANSOM the two folks BEING OFFENDED.  WHAT THE HEAVEN HAS HAPPENED TO US AS A CHURCH?

Are we men of valor?  Are we women of courage?

The self proclaimed chief called it a “show”.  Sorry chief  It wasn’t a show; it was a witness to brotherly love and FURTHER evidence ANY thing we do beyond clutching our rosaries in the front pew of a locked out Mass room, will NOT be tolerated by the secular world.

I now almost believe the Colts Cops had zero interface with an NEC official, and if they did, God help us if we throw our Catholic siblings to the wolves like in the recent decade.

Think about it: There was a 10 minute gap between Tony calling me his brother and friend and when the trinity of Colts Cops escorted me to security.

The NEC staffer, volunteer liaison must have seen and heard that.  Epic fail, and as St Paul, as a roman citizen demanded Rome, as a member of the Catholic Church, I firmly request a meeting with the decision makers.  Chances are, I will never see the promised report.

Not that critical with the audio recording, but helping some one keep a promise is only fair.  And my other involvements can lead to unjust lies applied as evidence in so much pro life tyranny applied.

Flashback a decade.  Reminds me of the 11 goons that Kamalabort dispatched to David Daleiden’s 600 sf apartment to steal, never return, his recordings of planned parenthoodlums selling body snatcher parts to med labs worldwide…just doing what they were told.  Update: finally, after a decade, David is free to do more great investigative reporting now that California has quit persecuting him.  The war is won and ocassional battle victories are welcome.  Thank you David for all you do, and Sandra too!

Boldness is NOT violence, it is St Paul, it is us, IF we really believe we hold the everlasting life truths in our hearts and hands. And our friends, neighbors and family are dying to know what we know.  Remember, NO ONE cares what you know, until they know that you care.

More on the crime in progress.

From the audio record (by the way, I inadvertently recorded it): “When you stopped and talked with the cameraman there(obviously, chief and cop crew were watching me, and maybe with the elusive NEC head of security over their shoulder) and they thought you were with the cameraman and if the guy (at the stairs to the left of Tony(had) not let you up, if that guy had not stopped you (chief, which way is it?) you would probably would have been taken off that stage in a different form and fashion.  Huh??

Does he mean pulverized or dead?  Oddly, he might have saved my life by not tackling me that day.

He, in his odd logic, is probably right since I had a latent heart arterial obstruction of the widowmaker discovered 72 days later on Sept 29th, the feast day of St Michael the Archangel. In English, a heart attack.

I had no weapon but the Gospel and the love of a CAtholic brother; I carefully identified myself to Tony, and walked back.  The people clapped politely, not for me but the sentiment of hugging a man who can’t hug and his decades long witness to our Savior.  NOT football fan drunk, just preaching the Gospel with actions.

I said to the Chief: He didn’t stop me; he let me up Words have meaning as do actions. Look at the “fear fuel” of the 2020s.

Based on Mao Tse Xi’s skillful incubation of the emerging leaked gain of function virus in Wuhan in 2019, 11 million city dwellers were not allowed to infect other Chinese cities with “no fly Chi rules”; just OUT of the country to the Chinese owned businesses in Spain and Italy. When Wuhan day laborers were sent to them and became the earliest hotspots.

We must believe there are many interactive God-incidences in life.  A great example was the earliest Calif. Covid death was a good Catholic man and acquaintance, on Feb 16, 2020, Stephen Atchley, one incredible professor who taught foreign including Wuhan students.

Yes we’ve been lied to but that is the first word and work of the godless.  We just must improve our serve and get REAL with the Real Presence of Christ. But something has nagged me about Andres’ death, the son of Lynn and Tony, who I first met when age 3.   I hope to find out this year if my suspicions are spot on.

Other soundbites from the Chief:

“you will be able to get an official copy through the NEC”Fat chance, the NEC does not return emails….even 8 months later and counting.  Let alone calls.  Too busy for a dad of 11 Catholic kids.

I asked, “Can i keep the orange lanyard… Unfortunately that is part of the access credential”At least, I kept the now useless schedule torn away but how weird is that?  They are afraid I will try and get back in using a piece of plastic twine.

“You are very very lucky that you didn’t get tackled off the stage by law enforcement down there”…Why, because the staff security guy let me go on stage?  What was THIS guy, thinking, with his double talk?

“Understand the environment in which we live today”Unfortunately, Chief, it’s the environment we have brought on ourselves, where being Catholic is right where the father of lies wants us: oppressed and passive.  Your overall security boss for the NEC Steve Garcia, is quoted as saying Trump’s assassination attempt had NOTHING to do with his plans to protect.  Did he lie as well?

Let’s hope this hug was sanctioned by the big poobahs in leadership

I do thank Colts Cop Central for their exceptional professionalism, assuming some NEC staffer directed their action from the shadows; and hoping no one else faced expulsion…apparently, hugs and roses are dangerous.  Nor any one lost a job, including my own family members.

Did the word on the hat, Sacred Heart Patrol, raise threat level to red from yellow, DEFCON 3? Fact is, when we as DREs had 400 kids in St Anthony Claret’s weekly…

…Tuesday night religious ed program, I had them made for the dads; it gave them purpose and the kids more security with dads around at an inner city parish for night classes.  It’s a leftover from 1995!

Looking back CSI/NCIS style, surveillance might have begun in registration line, though.  The man is always watching apparently.

Yes, I confess, I have a form of ADHD called ADAD. I talk to everyone, encourage them to dialogue (the lost art before covid, cell phones and shutdowns) and communicate. Some call it “witness”; my kids just say, “there goes dad again”.

Faith question:  when did roses and hugs become a federal issue at the state level in a Catholic conference talking mercy, kindness and love?

I tried to help families make the registration journey easier for these tired UNcredentialed: joyful, walking and encouraging the registrants.  Especially the sisters and the families, since it looked like the line would take a bit.  I may have been caught on camera; just be bland, don’t cause excess smiles, never assume people want to dialogue.  The usual drivel.

I asked the chief about my wife, Mary and he said no, she could stay. Really? How’d that work out 2000 miles from home!  NEC showed total incompetence and serial nonchalance to the needs of their California “delegates”.   Is there ONE competent, Catholic NEC official who can help with this?

Interrogation finished, I eSigned the unprinted report and officer Keith professionally showed me the way to the curb.  Warning NOT to step onto stadium or convention center property unless I wanted to be arrested.  There’s that threat again…

I told them I did not have any priors, but actually I have given former Miss Lila Rose a rose in the past, as previously mentioned and hugged Tony similarly at the Anaheim Convention Center Religious Ed conference a couple decades ago…also, on the WYD buses and Disneyland area stage, I played his hands at times like the old puppet trick. 

Thank you, Keith, you are a good officer as well as all your team.  But, maybe listen to the whole story from the hugged next time.  No next time for me.  I’m pretty much done with posturing and broken promises.

Tony texted me hours later, which you can read here.

 

======NEC Testimony===We ALL have a story to tell=======

Transcript of July 19th midday at the Indianapolis Colts’ Lucas Oil Stadium.  Meeting in the security room after pulled from my end zone seat. Three officers, chief of police arrives later.  It is a word for word transcription of an audio recording that did NOT come from the promised source: the NEC leadership.
 
While Tony’s song was underway, three security officers came to where Mary, my wife and stepmother to the 11,  and I were sitting in the end zone, peacefully watching and listening to Tony.
 
The Colt Cops:  you need to come with us
 
Len  Shall I tell my wife, are you taking me out, or just asking questions?
 
CCops:  taking you to the security office
All four of us walked up the aisle and headed to the security office
 
Len: thank you guys for being here (I always thank officers for their service, even football cops), 50,000  65,000 Catholics, you have a beautiful city
 
I remained cordial during the 5 minute perp walk; the security officers were just doing their jobs…assuming someone in NEC leadership requested my removal. Obviously, as dangerous as I was, I assumed NEC would appear. The cops, like soldiers at the cross or at the train cars of Auschwitz, were just following orders.  I am NOT worthy to clean the sandals of the Savior.  Are you?  Like Mary Magdalene, ever hear a stone whiz by your ear like a rifle shot one July 13.
 
At the security office; Sound of a door opening
Lady officer:  “Hello!”  desk officer, a nice lady
Len: “am i to sit with you here (woman on other side of table)”
Fine lady: “Do you have your ID on you sir?”
Len: sure I do. would you like the license or…
Fine Lady: License will be fine.
Len:  here it is. I am Len by the way.
    No priors I think. I have 11 kids and 22 grandkids. 40 years of Catholic home based education.
Fine lady: the Boss is going to talk to you
Len:  oh ok  Bach, I don’t know Bach
Fine lady: No… boss (with a chuckle)
Len  who is he?
Fine lady: “He’s the chief of police”
Len: ok happy to talk
25 seconds of dead time.  In comes alleged Chief of Police who identified as Billy Ingalls. (later Checking Archbishop Charles Thompson’s home city’s website, Billy and the acting Indy Chief must be fraternal twins.)
 
NEC Colt Cops “Sir, my name is Billy Ingalls, the security manager
Len  Good to meet you, I am Len
 
NEC Colt Cops or NEC: “What were you thinking, partner?” (referring to hugging Tony Melendez)   
 
Len  Let me give you the backgrounder.  I first met Tony in 1987, he was (a gift to the Pope at the Universal Amphitheater) up on stage. (Sept 15, 1987) I had 30 kids from St Callistus that special day.
(13 years later) I traveled with Tony to WYD sites in 2000, 2002, 2005.  I have 11 kids 22 grandkids and 40 years of homeschooling. I’ve known Tony and Lynn for more years than we’ve known
each other.  He lost his son  Andres, 3 years ago age 22 (actually 24)  My lovely wife, Mary married me 5 years ago.  I have been involved in youth ministry at three different churches. Tony was a surprise to me; because I did not know he was coming here.  and I had not seen Tony for a few years.  I’ve actually played his arms and hands on buses in Europe and had the privilege of sponsoring him, having him come to different churches and to do all that.  It was a little bit impulsive only because Tony has been one of the greatest gifts to our country and the world. (and your security man at the stairs allowed me up)
The long and the short of it is, uhm, give him a good hug and go from there.  He knows who I am, if you want to check with Tony.  If he didn’t, it could be because he is a lot older than me (attempt at humor: I’m 12 years older) right now, no I’m kidding.  He is actually a great man doing great things.
There was no intent to hurt or harm, i’ve been involved in the neighborhood of 100 retreats over the years serving almost 38 years of church ministry as the director of religious ed in some places, mainly as a youth minister, I’ve seen Tony at conferences and doing the other things together. Long and the short.
 
Here is the brief time Len was with Tony on stage/ dialogue: Fri July 19: 
Tony:  I can’t hug you. I can’t serve you a plate of food.  I’m married. I love my wife.  Her name is  Lynn, …for all the ladies here, we can’t hold hands which means we gotta do a lot more kissing.  That’s ok with me.  we’ve been together 33 years.
Two kisses that changed my life (Pope St John Paul the Great and Lynn’s). The first, the Pope, not a romantic kiss. A true blessing.  The second my wife’s  A true blessing when it comes to marriage and later on (kisses).
Len comes on behind Tony and touches gently his shoulders; Tony looks up and turns to Len
Tony: Yes (pause, recognizes; Len quietly says his name) Hey how you doing there. Good seeing you. Good seeing you.
Len: (facing the crowd) “Tony can’t give you a hug. We can give Tony a hug. Give him a round (signaling applause)  The crowd applauds Tony.  “I getting off now..(quietly to Tony; he traveled with six of my kids) I’m at 11 and 22 grandkids.  Len leaves the stage
Tony:  Good seeing you. You know we have World Youth Day friends, he’s one of the WYD friends I’ve traveled with.  A true blessing...  (did the Colt Cops’ Chief Billy or the NEC security liaison even hear Tony before their rush to judgement?)
  He didn’t call me Khoumenei or Hamas, but a friend, brother and blessing. Follows is Billy the Intimidator setting up the removal:)
NEC Billy security:
“Ok and…You did it yesterday as well” (referring to giving roses to Lila Rose tossed on stage).  (when the Chief Billy said this, my chess brain kicked in.  He’s been surveilling me for more than just today Friday, maybe the whole congress while helping the St Lawrence Treasures as well on Wednesday)
Len:  Oh, the flowers. Yeah, the flowers…that’s a fair question.  Roses for Lila Rose, I go back probably when she first came out. I’m a pro life, literally a prolife activist.  In that regard, I don’t block doors.  I usually give roses…
Billy: “as you did yesterday”
Len: …to women (ladies leaving planned parenthood Tustin@22fwy Orange).  I did not hand them to her, I tossed them on stage (away from the dais) probably 15 seconds, probably late.
I saw a staffer pick them up. What it was, if you didn’t get the evidence (the 11 roses) was simply three times, this is the third time.  Last two times it was at two different youth conferences, I would give her a rose on stage as a sign of the love and compassion (for her courage) from the people.  Usually as a youth group, I would have them with me. This third one, the roses actually were (technically) from her husband Joe.  She didn’t know about it, it was a surprise. But since I was late (15 seconds) I basically tossed them on stage (not to disrupt) when you picked them up, and I don’t know if they got to her, I haven’t talked to her since then.
   Bottom line, that will be my last incident (of surprise) if that is what your concern is (for NEC).  (agreeing to stifle joy and Catholic hospitality with a chief/man whose faith life is unknown).  I paid $700 to be here 12 months ago and it’s been a joy.  I’m just here to be a good Catholic and witness. so…

Billy: “well, on behalf of the NIC err NEC (Len: OK) I am instructed to pull your credentials.”  (Can I face the judge, jury and executioner?  Obviously not; after all, this is Church typical)

Len Ok, that’s fine. Can I get my wife.  (tho I’m of little importance, I expected an NEC staffer to come out from behind the curtain)
Billy:  we can get your wife…  (this indicated, mind racing, I’m done here unless the NEC security person shows his or her face, comes out of the shadows)
Len:  actually a better idea. Let her do what she is doing and I will pick her up outside. (I figured there was little chance of being at the Congress after the interrogation)
Billy: can you meet her out?
Len: does she have to go as well?
Billy:  she does not. she does not.  (good interrogator, he was careful to localize on his “suspect/target” and not Mary)
Billy so if you want to attend any of the other NEC events, because you are being ejected from
this stadium and you are being ejected from the convention center
Len: we’re fine, I understand  (Huh?  what events?)
Billy:  you are not allowed back on either property through the end of the event, thru Sunday ok?
Len: ok

Billy: so if you are found on either of the properties you are subject to arrest for trespassing. Ok?

Len Ok  (what was i to do? The NEC must be in the shadows.  I’ve heard the phrase “forgive us our trespasses as we forgive…” from time to time over 72 years)
Len  The reason I am asking (question) is a simple one. (phone rings) No, go ahead and get that phone call.
Len:  We came into Dayton via Cincinatti, in Dayton with my son and daughter in law their 4 children  (my son is the headmaster of Chesterton Academy Dayton, adopting 4 great fosters this year)
to Chicago and met some long lost Polish cousins. I will be happy to go, I have the keys
Happy to go, if you think its the thing I have to do.  Could you send me a copy if I give you my email?
(still expecting this great org NEC staffer, even a volunteer like me, to appear.  Didn’t happen. Sarah Houde never answered my emails Friday or Saturday)
Billy: I appreciate your help in doing this
Girl stenographer recorder:  Uh, I don’t know if it’s hooked up
Len: i don’t care if it’s later just so…

Billy: YOU WILL BE ABLE TO GET AN OFFICIAL COPY FROM THE NEC  (fat chance, it’s been three  four weeksEight months

Len: no, that’s fine, I apologize… (for doing a good deed for a grieving friend)
Billy: (holding the nametag) is there anything in the back you’d like to hold on to?
Len: good point, similar, actually, what you need more than anything would be this guy here, this is the actual credential. (Len tears it from the schedule)  This is the schedule where my wife would be..this is Patrick (Madrid’s) card in here. I can keep this (the plastic part) and…how about the clip?

Billy: unfortunately that (the orange lanyard) is part of the access credential.  (that’s what I paid $700 for?)  We can’t allow you to take it.

Len: ok that’s fine.I tried to be careful and not disruptive when I was surprised that Tony was up there…

Billy: “well, honestly, honestly you are very, very lucky you didn’t get tackled off the stage by law enforcement down there”

Len Well…
Billy OK?
Len  I appreciate that since they are probably bigger than me
Billy …if you had not stopped and talked to the cameraman (truth is, I complimented him on his work…I didn’t know I was under surveillance from the night before.  Apparently, roses have power!)
Len   Right
Billy “…when they (implies more than one NEC staffer made the decision) thought that you were with the camera crew, when the guy (not sure whom the stairs staffer belonged to) let you up…had that guy not let you up …had that guy not stopped you, you would have probably been taken off that stage in a different form and fashion.”    (uhhhh, hmmm…does this make any sense?  My 4 year olds covered their cookie thefts better than this guy. What an embarrassment NEC has become in this instance)
(Bishops/your excellencies/NEC hatchet team.  A little analysis here: my BS meter is on.  Ok, let’s chew on this.
A soft threat, which is his right as the chief of police to pull on me,  if he’s trying to extract necessary information. But, trying to understand their frame of mind,  if the staffer said no to going up, I would have returned to the end zone seats..and Billy or NEC Wizard security, decided, they would attack me with their bouncers?  Come on. 
 Who the heaven are these people and who is “they?” members of NEC or only God knows;  so I was going to be tackled because I was allowed up on stage?  Do you realize how insane double talk sounds like?  What, set up for hospital or possible death for Hunger Games style blood sport. My chickens and cats make more sense then this doublespeak nonsense. 
My regret is I support and donate to a number of the entities at this Congress, joyfully and know a healthy number of the presenters over my decades of ministry; and exhibitors. Getting kicked out early blew a lot of opportunities but I’d do the same thing again.  ASK PERMISSION.  GET PERMISSION.  Give a hug to a friend who was in need. 
Certainly, NEC knew I hadn’t sponsored a Hitler Harvard Hamas rally or threw paint on the monstance.. I’m not sure if the Cops knew what a monstrance is. Notice that Tony just called me friend and World Youth Day traveler 10 minutes before the extraction team of the Colts Cops showed up)
Len “…and I don’t play football, i just watch it (occasionally but sorry Archbishop Thompson, I’m not a Colts fan)
Billy:  understand, understand the environment in which we live today.  That’s where we are at with it.  (I DO understand the environment we are in: prebirth kids are killed by the millions and that prostitute VP Prez candidate can kill more with little response from the Church?)
Billy:  “You know you are breeching security”.  (I don’t know I’m breeching anything: no signs, no instruction, allowed up to do a mission of short duration mercy…if told I couldn’t go up, I would have just returned to Mary)
Billy:  “If we let every individual in this building do what you did,what kind of PERFORMANCE, WHAT KIND OF SHOW would this be for the participants  (come on, chief, did you hear the “performer’s” words? I was in a foreign land, this was a CATHOLIC worship gathering not druggies and drunks, meth heads and others that need our help.  I hope you bishops and NEC leaders have the capacity to read between these secular lines that make no sense)
Len: yeah, a good point, but it’s actually not a show, it’s a witness.  (another waste of breath)
Billy   You disrupted it, and that’s what caused this  (Disrupted what?  Certainly not the speaker/singer Tony.  Read his text he sent me.  Bishops Cozzens/Thompson etc, you were out of the stadium, there was no disruption, just nervous trigger happy security and incompetent NEC staff, which can be a good thing at times because law enforcement is being bullied and lawless disorder promoted by the Democrat radical left…  Ask YOUR people if they were offended having a ‘stand-in’ give Tony a short hug! OTHER then Sarah and people so stiff they would break if they fell.  They certainly lack the maturity to answer my inquiries.   Must I file a FOIA request to get what your team promised me?
Len   ok and I will contact them (tony, Lila) since I have their numbers. not this weekend.  To say Thank you guys for a great experience. and they’ve done great things
Recorder lady:  ‘Let me explain to you are being ejected from the stadium and you were trespassed from the property and I will ask you to sign that statement.’
Len electronically signs, acknowledging the interview…no copy given even though it is legally required in most states including Indiana.
Billy ..Think about your actions a little bit..I understand your side of it.  Think from the security side…”  (I did, where the heaven was NEC? or as usual, ducking responsibility.  Yes, I am repentant for ruining my wife Mary’s experience, but was the pomp and circumstance more important then the details of ministry? Do we accept zero risk of witness, enforce by zero tolerance of the good for the perfect lock-step “yes, sir” to corrupt civil “authorities” like gov Newsom locking out school and Church while making planned parenthoodlums “essential workers”.  I guess we do!
 Newsom’s the same plastic fallen away Catholic fan of killing prebirth kids, spaying daughters into suicide like they are junkyard dogs; that’s his excuse.  What is ours as a Church?  Yes, three fingers pointing back at me, but Francis heard the words from Our Lord in Assisi. Do we? )

“Francis, go and rebuild my Church which, as you see, is falling down.” Now the American Church has its work cut out for it.

We all see and are trying to revive the patient, the Bride of Christ.

Outside the Stadium on the way to the car…

Security Kevin escorts Len off the property onto the streets.  To get to the rental car in the Hurst parking lot, I had to ring around the building, do 270 degrees.  I did stop and dialogue/witness with 7 EVENTS staffers on break, event people, about the Congress, the Real Presence of Christ, the Church etc.  Anything an involved Catholic would do.  Great people, about the work of missionaries.  Once their pizza arrived…
At the rental car, I met new arrivals:
 Paul and his wife from New York.  I greeted them, gave them directions, discusses homeschooling since they are homeschoolers with kids.  One of the kids is John Paul; the respectful 7 yr old young man says he’s named after John Paul II     You just missed Tony I told dad. They said they know him.   To the young man:
Len: “son, the proper name is Pope Saint John Paul the Great.”
‘  they come from a very rural part of NY..
To JP’s mom and dad: “You are in the 2-10 club, you have two and on the way to 10.”  they chuckled.
Catholic commercial alert: Too many bishops miss how important servants Catholic home schooling families are to parish life (San Diego now DC’s Bishop McElroy comes to mind who banned homeschoolers from using parish facilities.  Is that why he was reassigned to DC?); after 40 years of practicing, I see this and the benefits are enormous.
 Few clerics (though the number is on the increase positively)understand Catholic parents HOMESCHOOL FROM BIRTH; LATER ON, THEY TAKE different paths to fulfill CCC 2223. 
Next, “Don’t miss the Hillbillies” I told them. We finish with “now John Paul who are you named after.
John Paul responds Pope Saint John Paul.  Smart kid!
(While playing chess with myself, did I do the right thing with Tony?)
Len gives the family directions and as they begin to leave…
 
Another current credentialed attendee walks up to my car while the New Yorkers were still there; his name on his credentials is Thomas Payne.  (the irony was not missed)
Tom:  “I need a hug”
Len ” I need a…this man Tom needs a hug!”  (joking to the NY family: Why does Tom need a hug?)
Tom:  “It was great up there (referring to the Tony hug)
Len “I’m banned so I guess it’s fine”
Tom: “He’s one of your best buddies, huh?”
Len: “Yeah, Tony, I was just telling the people here from New York. Hey guys! Tom hold on (talking to the uncredentialed family from New York) (Len shouts) make sure you register and get your credentials
 for the events in the Exhibit Hall Check out the Hillbillies and when you get to Relevant Radio, tell Patrick or anybody that Len Beckman sent you. (Obviously I won’t get back to Relevant unless I can get my credentials back from the NEC.  Never did get a call back or email back Friday or Saturday.  Nothing even today.
 (back to Tom at the rental car in the Hurst parking lot)
Len  “I – I honestly didn’t know Tony was coming. And I’ve known (of) Tony since late 1980s, I saw Tony come up out of the floor (sept 15) 1987.  I was with 35 maybe 40 kids from our parish, St Callistus
(today both St Callistus churches are gone, now luxury homes and embodied in Christ Cathedral a stone’s throw away)…it’s Christ Cathedral now and Tony was a gift, no one knew him then…I traveled with Tony 2000, 2002, 2005 World Youth Days. Tony has been everywhere (45 countries).  He’s suffering, obviously, he’s suffering from the loss of his son a few years ago Andres (Andres passed away in April 2022).  We know he’s in heaven (still pray for him and the Melendez fam)  As much as Tony works and God’s given him a burden but he meets that burden so well.  The way he handles helping and doing all these things
So, Tom, you’re local you are from Indiana? Had you ever seen him before?”
Tom:  “on TV (a car alarm goes off in the Hurst parking lot with no one else around)  Uh Oh!
Len:  “that is hilarious”
Tom: “no one’s even around that car”
Len:  “It’ll shut off after it gets tired”.
  So, tom anyways (alarm continues) Tony’s just an amazing guy
Tom: So you saw him just…
Len: well I saw him well I’m 72, so i first saw him Sept of 1987 when he
came up out of the floor, and he just did as you saw on the screen…with the Pope
Tom:  yup, yup yup
Len  …and I’m Polish and German and have a deep love for John Paul the Great
Tom: whattya talking about, man, I say John Paul the Excellent!
Len: Well you remember how the Parkinson’s just took over
Tom  yeah
Len: I really believe God used him throughout his life and he showed us how to
(live and) die gracefully (suffering Parkinson’s) unfortunately for our president right now, it’s sad, pray for
him. He needs a lot of prayer. because (Biden) he has parkinsons for probably 8 years
Len:  JPII was a hiker and everything but when Terri Schiavo died that morning (March 31, 2005)
she’d been starved to death, she was murdered, she couldn’t move much, she
couldn’t speak well.  (but her family, the Schindlers, were willing to give Michael a million to keep his ex wife alive. Go figure)
Len: When JPII passed away as the Divine Mercy mass (vigil) ended April 2nd, he had gotten…
Tom: I remember
Len …seriously ill on March 31st just hours after Terri was murdered (no coincidence, certainly a Godincidence) the best way to put it.  But, to answer your question, Tony was that gift whose been to every WYD since I seem to remember and his ministry is sooo sound.
He’s such a generous soul, giving everything that he can
Tom: especially since you can tell, on his younger days, when the pope wanted to kiss him
Len  But that was the freaky thing..I had no idea he was gonna be here, so
I told (my wife) Mary I got to go do this. The day before (Last night) I had tossed Roses for
Lila Rose on stage and it was my 3rd shot at that. I’m a prolife activist and had seen her
at different (events) things. I had missed her by 15 seconds so tossed them on stage (not to disrupt)
When Tony got on stage, I told Mary I gotta go.
Tom: really
Len: He’d said it had not been easy. Tony had just said “I can’t hug you” Tom, did that come through?
I’m here to hug you.
Tom: it did
Len I told the sisters (on the way back to seat) especially Missionaries of Charity that hugs for, from
you to him. (did the same with other individuals and groups)  God bless you Tom
I think I did the right thing. Thanks for the kind words. I wasn’t sure I did the right thing
Tom: you did fine
Len: I hope to get my credentials back otherwise I will go see my kids in Dayton.  (Bishop Cozzens: couldn’t get anyone to respond.  Emails to one of your key staffers not returned)
Tom: did they take them from you?  (Yes)
Len: I probably deserved it.  There’s a lot of hoot and holler crazy people out there.
 To Tom, are you with a group or by yourself?
Tom: I’m by myself

No arrest just banishment Tony! All for God’s Glory

Len: well go celebrate! Go, go, go. Go see the hillbillies (people mentioned them; it was lunchtime)   Wish you the best!  Thank you Mr Payne, you are the best!

–end of iPhone recordings transcript/testimony/interrogation July 19
I got in my car and left the Hurst parking lot, headed to a neutral location(Burger King) for a few hours of laptop work.
 I picked up Mary after 3pm.  What a stepmom and wife: she knew we were probably locked out of NEC, like Pentecost 2020;
NEC leaders, understand how my kids’ stepmom acted to your adversity. Mary met a woman in her last session, giving her the remainder of our parking fees/pass who really needed help having a place to park through Sunday.
  It made sense following NEC and the Colt Cops banishment orders (no one called back to see if we could re enter.

Never heard back from NEC team. They don’t have time for the little people. They get your money at registration and they are not accountable. But you are.  Weird

  We left the city early Saturday heading east.
 
NEC:  for the record, I was not a fanboy but truly concerned for Tony; but you left ZERO room for a Catholic apologist sensitive to the needs of others to add 17 seconds to your sacred itinerary.  Ok, maybe 25 seconds.  The sisters didn’t mind; few until now will know.  It’s the WHY no explanation is coming forth.
Later, Tony had messaged me on Facebook that Friday evening (yes, armless folks can do amazing things, even text) and here are the messages for the record…I was no Hamas terrorist, NEC, but I didn’t want to rain on his parade.  I just hope you decide WHAT is most important in banishing people from your gatherings.
I told Tony I wasn’t arrested but to enjoy his time at the Congress.  I would catch him later.  Which I will. 

All I need from NEC is the promised interrogation report and if/to whom you circulated it.  The reasons are sound.

  So, please, no more excuses, no apologies. Just the promise kept this will never happen again, with the Church allowing the godless or ignorant to set policies, like we do with wasting and draining poor families believing climate change is man caused NOT God controlled.
You might have heard about this unforced error I call the most egregious heresy embraced by too many: the Algorean Heresy of Ignorance
I must count it joy, if being a target is due to being active in tossing roses on the NEC platform, or giving roses at planned parenthood Orange HQ on Tustin @ 22 fwy or Congress. 
Most Saturdays, as the distraught confused girls are driven down the driveway across the sidewalk, having aborted, got a Covid shot, Fetalkyll poison or just some anti-having kid pills, explains a lot of the whys of this experience.
WE don’t save, the Holy Spirit does the “saving” but 66 million have not made it
to daylight.  Yet as Mother Teresa (I just LOVE the Missionaries of Charity) answered the reporter who asked:
“there are thousands in need, how can you hope to help all these people?” 
Her answer is our call; not just the fanfare of big celebrations, but the nitty gritty of “helping one person at a time”
This was my goal, without permission since the need was immediate, to help in the lines those less than capable.
Even after expulsion, I remained hospitable to the needs of others, following the Prime Directive and encouraged people we encountered.

Our Church is still clawing its way back since Pentecost 2020 lock-outs and I hope to continue to surprise with joy those within two feet of me, as we all should. The Gospel IS efficacious IF it is shared with those dying to know Jesus.  Especially in the Eucharist.

To do this, we need fearlessness, boldness and compassion.  Bishops Cozzens & your excellencies & lay people: May you begin your day with this mantra: “It IS a great day to be alive.  Lord, use me as You, not I, will”  ie: shout Joy with your every encounter.
Paul spoke so much in this passage:  Romans 8:28 
“We know that all things work for good for those who love God, who are called according to his purpose.29For those he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, so that he might be the firstborn among many brothers.30And those he predestined he also called; and those he called he also justified; and those he justified he also glorified.31What then shall we say to this? If God is for us, who can be against is?32He who did not spare his own Son but handed him over for us all, how will he not also give us everything else along with him?33Who will bring a charge against God’s chosen ones? It is God who acquits us.34Who will condemn? It is Christ [Jesus] who died, rather, was raised, who also is at the right hand of God, who indeed intercedes for us.
Please take this admonition, not with pride or a closed heart.  Certainly, I am not a bishop for we have many excellent bishops; nor am I the pope.  I am NOT an ordained priest of which there are many.  But as a Catholic apologist, father of 11 and devoted to teaching the Truth whenever possible, risk doing good even when it is inconvenient.
The Father made it exceedingly plain how much He loved His Son and wanted to gift Him to us.  I believe this Ultimate Gift was heralded (and hope to prove in time) by His unmistakably well designed monument.  Not only the world’s largest monument to His Eucharistic Son, but incredibly precise being located at the Center of the World.  For, as the Scriptures teach us, Jesus IS the center of not only the world, but the center of history.   His Story must be retold, concisely (much more concisely than this writing) and enthusiastically to a world fast becoming antagonistic to the GREATEST story ever told.
Isaiah is packed with prophecies, part of the 612 Christ prophecies; within it, is Isaiah 19:19-20 which points to Bethlehem from the desert, from Giza a mere 270 miles away.  The same Giza that JMJ traveled to live for 2 years in a peaceful Jewish settlement in Cairo, in the Great Pyramid’s shadow.   Before you revolt over this notion, do your own research or read “The Theology of Giza” and expose the fraud should their be some.    Simply:
The Proud GodFather’s contribution to His Son’s Real Presence 4600 years ago. Yes, provable as a Catholic icon. 
I remain a son of the Church, devoted to truth, surprising with joy, still spreading the Gospel as long as possible.  My real estate clients know I am retiring at age 100 but in our faith work, no retire.  Retiring is defined as putting new rubber/wheels on the family van, NOT quitting. There will be plenty of time in heaven to retire and sleep.
Wishing each of your ministries to be successful in the spirit of Phil 2:3-4:

“Do nothing out of selfishness or out of vainglory; rather, humbly regard others as more important than yourselves, each looking out not for his own interests, but [also] everyone for those of others.”

–Notes, thank yous  and errata————————————————————————- xxxxxxxxxx

And remember, you might not know the cost or not expect the cost of a certain act of Catholic charity (ROCK or Random Opportunity for Catholic Kindness), but as the Calcutta saint said, ‘do it anyway’   We need fearless and bold advocates on the greatest mission field in the world: USA and Calif.
When I hugged my 30 year friend/brother Tony Melendez on stage July 19th  at NEC Congress, with permission and timed as flawlessly as possible to NOT disrupt, people enjoyed their “hugs” symbolically given to a humble armless servant by one of them.  Losing his only beloved son, Andres in his sleep and days until Andres’ birthday, you’d think  the NEC security team, many football sunday drunk removers, would not be so brazen: they ushered me to the stadium interrogation room 15 minutes later, threatened to arrest me even though I had permission, unless I “allowed” them to eject me from the NEC completely.  Even today, never heard a word from an NEC official, though we left at the half way part missing decades of friendships in the Exhibit Hall and the rest of the Mass, family rosaries and Adoration nights.
Involved in planned parenthood battles all these years, I know Lauren Handy and was a small part of her training years ago before like Lila, she converted Catholic and was pardoned of the ridiculous now serves  50+ months.  Lauren was helping the largest demographic of post abortive women:  ladies in prison
Personally, I am hardened to the games playing of the PP director calling the police for no good reason; but mystified at the actions of leadership of the Catholic revival that is ushering in the true Renaissance of the Eucharistic Lord, as His Father announced in stone 4600 years ago.  What were they thinking?  Rush to judgement without competent investigation.
NEC‘s rush to judgement and lack of investigation and/or divine Mercy is how the evil one battles good: father of lies. Point is, be JOYOUS and spread BY Joy. Keep doing good, ladies. Answer adversity with “Yes, Lord I am come to do YOUR Will, not mine”   oct4
——
I am blessed to have two of my kids married to two siblings of an amazing Norbertine, Fr. Louis assigned to the Premonstratensian abbey in Silverado Canyon: St Michaels. Appropriately, the 3rd son, his given name was Levi, as if his parents Steve & Regina gave him to God at birth like Hannah and Samuel. Abbot Hayes’ confrers are great and untold blessings in southern california and other states.
When I lost my wife and the mother of my 11 kids, Donna on 9/9/11, it was two years before I could take a breath. 1400 people saw her off to the heavenlies at Holy Family Cathedral 9/15/11.  Odd turnout maybe because she was much more than a “stay at home” mom, she affected so many lives in parish ministry.  She did so much for the faith dying 49 days short of 49 years.
Abortion is hell installed in the mind, hearts even souls of desperate moms; it completes the demonic sacrifice emulation of Catholic Mass with a terrible reward: the life of a prebirth body so few Catholics understand is real, especially when satanists like Josh King performed an Anti-Mass at planned parenthood and other kill mills.  Your advice Patrick Madrid was exceptional.
Truth be told, I was surprised Tony Melendez was coming on stage that Friday at NEC; I have zero idea.
Tony is a living Catholic icon and itinerant preacher of love; I first saw him come out of the floor at Universal with 30 of my St Callistus youth in 1987. Then I traveled as one of the Youth Ministers with him and Steve Angrisano to 2000,2002, 2005 World Youth Days.  Like other grieving parents, Tony needs our love and prayers; he and Lynn lost Andre their beloved son a couple years ago and his grieving continues on Facebook.  I suspect the cause is discoverable.
I count him as a blessed friend, so instinctively (stepmom, wife Mary can attest) I got up and headed to the stage…I asked the staffer at the side steps conversationally a question then told him “I am going up to give Tony a hug from all of us.”  He didn’t stop me, gave tacit permission, so I proceeded: I thought the surprise would be helpful to a great man.
Just after Tony mentioned “I can’t give you a hug…” I embraced him from behind and told him
I love him; here’s a hug from all of us. Of course, he was startled but recognized me as a co-pilgrim from many WYDays and acquaintance, even friend. 17 seconds and I left the stage so he could get his toes and club foot into action with his new song.  As it turns out, this 17 second Sacred Heart Patrol hug cost me a plenary indulgence, two more days of NEC including seeing many friends in ministry, two Masses, the world’s largest Eucharist procession, etc.
  But Patrick, it was worth the cost because what happened next as I was escorted out of the stadium.  Tony needs our sincere prayers, as does his beloved wife Lynn.  I recall young Andre on the buses in Europe & Canada, because he and his sister traveled with the Toejam Pilgrims.  His testimony happened moments after yours on the six words and the Eucharist miracle girl, truly a saint, taking the last host on the floor before being martyred.  Tony’s ministry started late 1987 but continues today, with yet another new song.  Please pray and ask listeners to pray when your show goes live again this week.  It  was great seeing the Relevant Radio family Wed and Thursday..what an amazing ministry. The revival continues; the Eucharist remains real. Opportunities to see a need, meet the need if able and move on to the next is our creed, IF we believe the Gospel, John 6 and our calling as “journeymen and women” on this earth codified in Command #2 to love our neighbor.   I love Tony as a brother and know he is hurting; my “hurt” losing Donna has abated and God has gifted me with Mary never married now step mother to 12 but it IS a great day to BE alive.  LIVE the ADVENTURE!
Cyrus is right! Never think we have more than the present to be on earth: text, call those you love. NOW   Patrick I DO love you as you requested from the life ending episode on a rewind show. I will continue to do your ministry of love to family as well.
TY Cyrus as usual   Great seeing you as well last year in Indianapolis.  You ARE truly Cyrus the Great Producer.

The Theology of Giza: the Father’s Gift of His Eucharistic Son

Welcome Cale to the discussion 

Updates: Epiphany 2025 Jan 6. jan8.   Baptism of the Lord Jan 12   Jan 21st   Wesley’s 2nd bday Jan22   Feb8 25 feb 12  March 20    March 21  Marcy 23 march 28   updated aug 15, 2025 sept 25, 2025   Oct 31, 2025

The Holy Family arrives near Cairo, fleeing the evil king Herod.  hat tip Jimmy Akin

‘Breaking news:  incredible archaeological discovery, if proven true, would rank in the top 10, nearer the first. There is a massive substructure UNDER Giza that is keeping it accurate to within 3 seconds of arc.  But unproven. More later…’

On the first day of Spring: the day of annual rebirth, resurrection, renewal of the earth. It’s more than just flowers and bees, birds and trees in blossom.

On March 20th this and every year, at High Noon, the world’s largest object at the exact center of the world has ZERO shadow, as it has for 4600 years. 

But, the one day we know it went dark for 3 hours, was Friday the 13th day of Abib, nominally we believe March 25th coincident with the date Mary conceived our Savior.  The same date the Catholic and Orthodox Churches celebrate Annunciation.

Also, it’s the day nature rebelled for our Jesus was dying on a tree.   But Fr Rocky’s take is important: I have long believed our common calendar is off 4 or 5 days but the cosmos is not.  The Sun still shines, and the earth’s revolution remains 365.242 or “A solar year, also known as a tropical year, is approximately 365 days, 5 hours, 48 minutes, and 45 seconds long. This duration represents the time it takes for the Earth to complete one full cycle of seasons, measured from one vernal equinox to the next. ”   Interestingly, the Liturgical Year repeats itself as well with wise variations year after year.

Fr. Rocky’s take on the calendar shift:

“God bless you Len!  The reason that 3/25 is not the first day of spring is the same reason that Christmas is not on the 20th of December.  By the time the Christians established the Liturgical Calendar, the Julian Calendar was off by five siderial days, because the Julian Calendar –  named after Julius Caesar, but invented in Alexandria three centuries previously –  was off by eleven minutes a day, an imprecision corrected by Pope Gregory XIII in 1582, by omitting leap years in century years not divisible by 400.  It took the Protestant countries another two centuries to catch up.  Fascinating.”

It IS fascinating because Alexandria, the home of the Julian calendar, played a part back in 1303ad, residual damage from an incredible earthquake and shake.  But also, on the plain outside of Cairo, the Giza plateau.

The Theology of Giza    Translation: Border Fire in the Middle.

(still under construction)

This “thesis”, which I call The Theology of Giza, is really about and centered on the Ultimate Gift, symbolized and brightly gift wrapped for us here on earth, but from all eternity in the Mind of the Eternal Father, with its gatekeeper covered by a hard shell mirror white finish…

Well, until seven centuries ago, when it lost its mirrored stones, Giza was a part of that Christ “pre-show”  most dramatically, probably the largest object built to point directly to our Trinity’s 2nd Person’s Nature and birth place. 144,000 casing stones don’t disappear overnight.

The artist  rendering of what Giza looked like in the desert until 1303ad turned Giza into a Home Depot masonry yard, is important to visualize; and to better understand the full impact of Giza in human and spiritual history.

There is no better time than this moment IN mid eternity history, with the marked increase in Eucharistic events, during the Jubilee of Hope year, to tell a hope-filled tale  about the Trinity!

More specifically, the GodFather’s selfless & eternal Love for His Son and intentionality regarding a race of people who would walk the earth.  A singular favored race, one in number.  Humans.  Male and female.

Please read with a hungry, yearning and prayerful heart.  As we are into the 2025 Jubilee Year of Hope, a year I believe coincides with the revolutionary idea that Jesus is TRULY irrevocably present in the changed bread and wine, a timely gift of the Eucharist, is  a poignant reminder just how much YOU are loved.

Allow me to untie the bow; no need to tear off the ‘wrapping paper’ since that was removed over centuries starting in the Crete centered earthquake of the 14th century AD.

From Wiki: “The 1303 Crete earthquake occurred at about dawn on 8 August. It had an estimated magnitude of about 8, a maximum intensity of IX (Violent) on the Mercalli intensity scale, and triggered a major tsunami that caused severe damage and loss of life on Crete and at Alexandria. It badly damaged the Lighthouse of Alexandria.”   Ironies of a curtain torn in two come to mind circa 33 ad.  Why did God allow this to happen 725 years ago?  Read on:

“In Egypt the earthquake caused severe damage in Cairo, dislodging much of the Great Pyramid’s white limestone casing (stones) and toppling minarets on many mosques. “

A recovered Giza casing stone showing its 50 + degree angularity is a start.

“In Alexandria the city walls were mostly destroyed. Most notably, the Lighthouse of Alexandria, one of the seven Wonders of the World, was badly damaged. Homes in Alexandria collapsed, killing many people.  According to Alexis Perrey, the earthquake was felt on the entire Adriatic coast, up to Venice (about 1,600 km or 1,000 mi from Heraklion).”

Note, my fellow sojourners: only ONE Wonder remains; it stands silently in the desert near the Nile.  It is called the Giza Pyramid but that is a curious translation from “Border Fire Middle” which would seem an odd partnering of words.

Open game!!  Apparently, the loosening up of those well honed hard white limestones made repairs simpler for the local Arabian Muslims, providing a rocky block pile of materials for building and rebuilding.

As it turned out, over a couple centuries, most of the estimated 144,000 casing stones were removed leaving a few below the sand as evidence of the Master’s handiwork.

The sample pictured above is in a museum in England and the showcase it sits in matches the angle built in to the external walls of Giza.  Why is this important?  One feature of the Father’s monument is it matches the curvature of the earth with its external wall concavity, something discovered just a few decades ago after four millennia.  How the heaven could the ancients do that without satellites and super computers?

For salvation history purposes, Giza has zero shadow at the true Spring Equinox: at high noon.  This will be discussed later.

Yet: always know this: the Father loves us with an everlasting love, through the Eternal Gift of His Eucharistic Son.

Over the recent years, as our laity AND some priests (reflect on the 8th century Lanciano Eucharistic Miracle) have waned in their belief Jesus is TRULY present in the converted bread & wine, the emphasis of the Father’s Eternal Plan must aid the renewal, revival of our understandings.  Bring on the revival into the Renaissance of Love, of the True Presence.

Let’s begin with someone we all need and (outside of the first couple, Adam  & Eve)have in our past or present, a mother.

Simple truth: the Virgin Mary, the New Covenantal Ark and the true fulfillment of the Father’s plan, consummated the Father’s Son by being “the spouse” of the Spirit, delivering His (the Father’s) Son 9 months after the Church recognizes His earthly conception at the Annunciation.  The nominal date, March 25th, is recognized by tradition as important.

The date in Gregorian, is March 25th, interestingly close to the Spring Equinox. Conjecture about proximity to 4 specific seasonal days in the solar year, reviewed later.

March 25th is a trans historical faith link: recall, after a number of visits, Bernadette was introduced by name to the Immaculate Conception at Lourdes, the Lady of the waters of healing on March 25, 1858 just weeks after her first appearance to the future saint.

Inextricably tied to March 25th, the date of the Annunciation and perceived to be Jesus’ conception day, at the turn of the first Millennium.  As Tradition tells us, March 25 conveniently is the date of the Crucifixion as well.  More intriguing is when you examine three books, you discover Good Friday happened on Friday the 13th day of Abib/Nissan (Hebrew calendar)

It was subsequent, completely woven with the reality of her Immaculate Conception occurring an estimated decade and a  half previously, to those saintly parents, Joachim and Anne. For the record, only four beings have been immaculately created on this earth…

In this treatise, I hope to show you some fascinating God-incidences (some may be mere coincidences or irrelevant, yet severable if we find them wonting…like you, I am not perfect, nor omniscient and certainly a sinner) as the Trinity has interceded in our world for OUR good, not God’s.

The Trinity has always existed and does not need us nor the angels, good or bad.  But out of the eternal virtue, LOVE selflessly, we are on the greatest adventure any creature could imagine.

Our Protestant friends love to roll out “sola scriptura” more fluidly than melted butter dripping off the waffle, but Church Tradition and other means of revelatory objects and actions, most supernatural, should not be easily discounted. How they miss out on such richness from heaven!

Nor am I talking about selling Mary’s toasted bread image on E-bay, but undeniably Giza, as the world’s largest monument sitting at the EXACT Center of the World, really can’t be ignored that much longer.  It’s place in Salvation History is certainly undeniable it seems for the inquisitive Catholic mind.

In time, I believe I can show you Giza is no less an amazing Catholic icon with significant features to bolster our faith in the Creator and Eternal.

Please, also, IF you see/read a contradictory error deviating from God’s Truth, I am the imperfect vehicle to provide this: private revelation must be vetted of course and the Church has never, or at least, recently I can’t see,  looked at the Theology of Giza this way. 

It is much more than 2.3 million multi-ton blocks piled in the desert, appearing worn and ragged, erratically today.  The artist rendering at the beginning of the thesis shows what Giza looked like before it became the scavengers’ paradise following an earthquake.

Tell me your thoughts, criticisms and corrections before this becomes book.  Also, any other observations can be sent to Lenbeckman@gmail.com with Theology of Giza in the subject bar.  Perfect timing in light of the beautiful Nat’l Eucharist Congress mid country July 2024 as the re-emergence and resurgence of the Eucharistic Renaissance continues.  Oddly, my NEC tale is unique and mystifying, to be related later, but ALL for the Glory of God. 

Note that at NEC’s conclusion on July 21:

“The pilgrimage and congress (were) part of the National Eucharistic Revival, a three-year initiative of the U.S. bishops launched in 2022 to increase understanding of and love for Jesus in the Eucharist. The close of the congress (July 21, 2024) launched the Year of Mission, during which the bishops are encouraging Catholics to “walk with one” by sharing their faith and accompanying another person to better know Jesus and his love.

I believe this search for the truth re: Giza can be part of that “walk of faith” discerning what the Father’s Gift Ultimate is!

“The pilgrimage and congress are part of the National Eucharistic Revival, a three-year initiative of the U.S. bishops launched in 2022 to increase understanding of and love for Jesus in the Eucharist. The close of the congress launches the Year of Mission, during which the bishops are encouraging Catholics to “walk with one” by sharing their faith and accompanying another person to better know Jesus and his love.”  (hat tip to Maria Wiering, senior writer for OSV News.)

 So…

…Let’s begin this Eucharistic adventure starting with the 2nd Eve and first going back about 100 years ago.

The Lady of Light/Zeitoun and Mr. Tawfik Khalil Abraham in 1920 Cairo, Egypt  

As cradle Catholics, most of us grew up hearing about Fatima, Lourdes and other places Mary has been to since she was Assumed and Coronated.  Our Regina Coeli HAS been busy!

For example, the Patroness of  the America’s imagery stems from a half a millennium old cactus fiber cloak that has become known as Our Lady of Guadalupe’s image.   Had you heard of the Our Lady of Light appearing over St Mary Major…in Cairo, Egypt?!   Note, as Briana and Gavin will discover, there is another Mary Major in Rome!

France, Portugal, Mexico City are fine.  But, much closer to the center of the world, Mary appeared as a bright white lady, with a dove perched on her head, showing up above a Cairo Coptic church known as St. Mary Major.  Would you feel slighted if I contend Mary had been to that region a mere 1900 years previously, on a donkey with her earthly husband and Sacred Son?

“The story (of Zeitoun) begins much earlier (than the 1968-71 1152 days of Mary’s Cairo miracles above St Mary Major);  around 1920.  A Coptic Christian, Tawfik Khalil Abraham, owned this spot of land in Zeitoun/Cairo, Egypt that he was about to build a hotel there.”

Then, the Blessed Virgin Mary visited him in a dream requesting instead that he build a Coptic Church in her honor. If he did so, she promised to perform a miracle there sometime in the future.” (hat tip Brian Kranick)

Mother Mary Major certainly gets around, not on Eagles’ wings but empowered by the Trinity, like an organic laser focusing us on her Son and getting us to know more about our eternal destination.

And she keeps her promises.  Truth is, Mr. Abraham proceeded to change his plans from a multi-story inn to a  holy sanctuary ready for Jesus’ mom decades later.  The church remains today, over 100 years old.  Irony, one of the four major churches in Rome is, as mentioned previously,  another St. Mary Major.

Could a Catholic Blessed Virgin Mary convince a non-Catholic but Christian man to go Orthodox church building after abandoning his hotel business?  Of course! 

Promises made, promises kept:  apparently, in fact, apparition style, she did keep her promise 48 years later above the church he had built because SHE had asked him to.  Mom got her way and kept her promise, as usual.

Historically, Mary makes her frequent flyer appearances over the centuries sometimes during or after major wars. and Zeitoun was similar yet unique.  Her earliest known supernatural excursion is 40ad when she bilocated (in two places at once) to see St James in Spain at Zaragoza, which we know today as Our Lady of the Pillar.

For example, during WWI, recall the Archangel first visited the three Fatima visionaries in Sept 1916, just prior to her six dates/days of monthly visitations that started monthly on May 13, 1917.  And realize, since it ended with an Armistice with little resolution, it continued 20+years later, morphing in the 2nd chapter, WWII.  Often, we think of two separate wars but…

As to Our Lady of Light/Zeitoun, after requesting Mr Abraham “build a church”, 48years later, her visitations were seen directly by millions, by more people than any other apparition up through today.  For 1152 days.

Her visit above Mr. Abraham’s St Mary Major Coptic Orthodox church in the Zeitoun section of Cairo, happened 298 days after the end of the third post WWII Middle East war. The descendants of Abraham, specifically Israelis and Arabs, still battle it out but God keeps His promises.

Note, most often like Our Lady of Champion or Fatima, Tenochtitlan/Mexico City’s Guadalupe, Mary’s appearances are recorded based on the countries, cities  or sites where they occur.  Can we ignore the impact of such a celestial event, both of duration and prominence, of a beautiful woman from heaven flanked with doves of peace and other miraculous events?

Verify it yourself: another six day event, the ”Six-Day War, also known as the June War, 1967 Arab–Israeli War or Third Arab–Israeli War, was fought between Israel and a coalition of Arab states, primarily Egypt, Syria, and Jordan from 5 to 10 June 1967.

Military hostilities broke out amid poor relations between Israel and its Arab neighbors, which had been observing the 1949 Armistice Agreements signed at the end of the First Arab–Israeli War” -wiki What’s with these descendants of Ishmael and Isaac?   

Conversion and consecration of Russia, one of Mary’s main messaging via Fatima; and Middle East peace, presumably a goal of Jesus’ mom in her flights to Egypt, shows she always has a purpose AND focuses on One Being each time: her Son, and His Salvation History, the peace that passes ALL understanding.  His Story LEADS to OUR salvation, as you know.

As you read this, we currently, are watching the extended 4th Middle East war continue…yet, we should focus on the Holy Family’s nighttime escape, with the Angel telling Joseph go NOW! due to Herod’s duplicity in seeking to kill the new King.

The Magi had followed the Star, discovering Joseph & Mary in the City of David, Bethlehem-Ephrathah; soon later, with the Son in tow, the Holy Family headed to the environs of Giza in Cairo. As we are told in Isaiah 7&8:

The LORD spoke to Ahaz, saying: Ask for a sign from the Lord, your God; let it be deep as the nether world, or high as the sky!
But Ahaz answered, “I will not ask! I will not tempt the LORD!”
Then Isaiah said: Listen, O house of David!  Is it not enough for you to weary people, must you also weary my God?
Therefore the Lord himself will give you this sign:
the virgin shall be with child, and bear a son,
and shall name him Emmanuel,
which means “God is with us!”     

God never gives up on us, whether Jew or Greek!  Ephatha(h) means “fruitful” and in Mark 7:34, Jesus uses this word to help the deaf man.  “Be opened”.  How much more “fruitful” could the birth of God as Man in the “House of Bread of Life” city be?  Jesus was silent in His mother’s womb, until opened near or at the Winter Solstice for OUR salvation one Christmas Day.  Not His!

But, the birth of the Newborn King soon needed more help due to an evil king; from Matthew 2:

 “When the Magi had departed, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream and said,

“Rise, take the child and his mother, flee to Egypt,

and stay there until I tell you. Herod is going to search for the child to destroy him.”

14Joseph rose and took the child and his mother by night and departed for Egypt.

Without hesitation, at night, Joseph returned to the country so familiar to the people of Moses, of slavery, of the pharaohs especially Ramses. Obviously, it was now safer to go there than to stay and be the target of Herod’s wrath in Israel, the promised land.

We have evidence the Holy Family ended up in Cairo; you can Google Earth it yourself:

Bethlehem, just south of Jerusalem, is 270 miles to Giza if you travel southwest, skirting the Middle Earth Sea (Mediterranean)along the directional vector built into Giza.

This you may already know:  historically, there was a Jewish enclave, dating back to Alexander the Great, in the Egyptian city of Cairo, with both Jews and Egyptians peacefully living next to each other.

You’d think the perfect place for a Holy Family to spend a couple years of Holydays avoiding an egotistical evil king.  And not so coincidentally, they lived near Zeitoun, where Mary would reappear 1900 years later as the beloved mother of us all, the new Eve.  Mr. Abraham listened!   We all know God is a purpose-filled God and certainly NOT a wasteful Creator.

One obvious example is God created a life critical trace gas used by the godless and God & Creation haters as an excuse to rob others blind worldwide.  Carbon dioxide, yes CO2, numbers 422:million or about one (1) CO2 molecule in every 2500 air molecules.  Our beloved Pope Francis is scammed by a pervasive heresy known as the Algorean Heresy with its prophets of doom like John Fing Kerry, Al Gore and the other climate con artists.  Honestly, I am embarrassed how the Church typically wise scientists over the centuries,  buys into this cancerous fraud that gets worse every year.  Without this trace gas, life including human life ENDS on planet earth!

Couple this scientific quantum leap of CO2 knowledge, there is an easily implementable solution for the 3rd world:  “allowing” the export of inexpensive liquified natural gas (LNG)  throughout the world for heating, cooking even vehicle fuel; couple that with exporting agricultural innovation to feed the struggling world while continuing to drill wells throughout subsahara Africa since clean water IS doable.

God is NOT bashful about His Love for His Eternal Son and started early in history to point to Jesus as His Ultimate Eucharistic Gift.

The Worlds of Giza

Giza is many things: these following “Giza as…” sections are like different chapters of the Father’s Masterful work anchoring His earth; you need not read these sequentially and IF you have questions, criticisms and corrections, please do not hesitate to point them out.   Email to Lenbeckman@gmail.com writing GIZA in the subject field.

If one chapter is found wanting, your suggestions will be noted in the future.  This is a living work and its study is similar to the Tilma, the Shroud etc. : new revelations and corrections seem to occur continuously.  For example, Fr Spitzer keeps discovering better ways to see the Shroud as the True Burial cloth of our Eucharistic Lord.

But, the chapters are inter-related and captioned to draw your interest to the different aspects of this mystery monument in the desert.  The world’s largest monument at the center of God’s world.

The worlds of Giza

~Giza as the Solar Year

We need to first know that Giza, internally actually is a mysterious and unique calendar, among other fascinating things.

Timeless timeline

A graphic of Giza’s amazing chronology on the Years of Man

Instead of dates on a pad like a wall or daytimer calendar, the years are mapped out based on a key circular marking at the entrance passageway opening, that in 2141BC and 2007 AD was perfectly aligned with the Northern Star.  Those two years, we know the North Star shone to the bottom of the 344 foot passage.  Note: the ONLY  “pyramid” with significance below the surface

A unique key symbol called by scholars the “Pyramid Inch” or sacred Jewish inch.  And years are derived by measuring inch per mile with different junctions. More later on this.

But , let’s take a quick refresher on popular calendars.  The Chabad calendar is currently in year 5785, based on the lunar year, similar to what the Muslim follow: the phases of the moon.

As to Julian and now Gregorian, today’s western versions, it is based on the solar year not the moon.  And Giza is MORE accurate than common parlance on the length in days, hidden in plain sight in the Giza base perimeter.

For you budding astronomers, you know about leap year, I’m sure.  Every four years, since most people think a year around the sun is 365 1/4 days, we get an extra February day, the 29th.  But, unfortunately, it  doesn’t make up the missing time cleanly: every 100 years, since it’s not really a 1/4 day, sometimes you DON’T do the leap day.

Digging deeper, according to the site calendar-365.com:

“When it’s a leap year?  A leap year is a year with 366 days instead of 365; every 4 years in February one extra day is added. This is done because one year doesn’t contain 365 days but 365.25 days. By adding once in the 4 years one extra additional day this problem is solved. Any year that is divisible by 4 is a leap year, such as 2016, 2020, 2024, 2028.
Note: The above rule does not apply to century years.
Centuries such as 1900 and 2000 only have a leap day if they are divisible by 400.
1900 is divisible by 4 and also by 100, but not by 400, so not a leap year.
This means that centuries are only a leap year if they are divisible by 400. So 1900 is not, 2000 is, 2100, 2200, 2300 is not, but 2400 is another leap year.”

I’m sure the people at this site are well meaning, but the actual solar year, like a fine tuned watch, comes to 365.242  days.  NOT 1/4.   God IS extremely precise and all powerful, all knowing and the best: all loving to those who follow His Son.

Believe it or not, Giza has demonstrated this faithful length for four plus millennia by its external measurement, it’s circumference.  Each side of the monument measures 9131 inches.  This adds up to 36524 inches; look closely and you see an actual calendar solar year to five significant digits: 365 24.

Is  this coincidence?  OR a Godincidence?  Think about this: the modern calendar app I googled above is not as accurate as the 2.3 million block building/monument, apparently built/completed in 2623BC and inaugurated 2141BC based on the polar star line up.

We know that Stars and measurements have meaning, and pyramidologists and scientists much smarter than I have ascertained Giza is linked to the stars, AND the earth.  No accident of nature.  Easy to see other examples of this cosmic connections with earth and the heavens: the Bethlehem birth star. The stars that outline a star key-chart on Mary’s OLGuadalupe tilma:  using supercomputers, today we know, Mary is wearing the night sky from Dec 12, 1531 over Mexico City.  This defies natural explanations but it is easy for God to plan over centuries, even millennia of time.

The solar year is the one most commonly used in calendaring for the Western world; but there’s also the sidereal year:

A sidereal day is 1 Earth rotation relative to the stars; a solar day is 1 Earth rotation relative to the Sun. The Earth rotates 366 times per 'normal' 365-day year relative to the stars, so Earth's sidereal day is 4 minutes shorter than Earth's solar day.“A sidereal year is the time that Earth or another planetary body takes to orbit the Sun once with respect to the fixed stars. It differs from the solar year due to the precession of the equinoxes and is used in some calendars and astrology.”

Sidereal year adds a full accurate day 366.24 to accommodate the equinoxes.  Why all this in a thesis about Giza?

Simple answer: religion, science, faith, to God they are all the same thing but we the people classify into categories.  Basically,  the Father wants us ALL to live happily forever.

So He planned from eternity past to create this universe, not for the angels, but for you…and me.  And if we realize how incredibly large AND yet micro the design and development, we would not doubt His abilities.

Equinox and solstice illustration.

I still wonder if the 25ths of March and September (equinoxes) June and December (solstices) match faith events extraordinarily accurately

553 sextillion miles wide, billions of stars and planets, all things no angel, fallen or righteous, need.

So, UNDERSTANDING the Who and whys is something that helps all of us, as we help each other, to know the Truth.

The Truth which will set us free.

A basic understanding of the equinoxes, solstices, tropics and obliquity of the earth helps us see how infinitely refined Giza measurements truly are, corresponding to the infinite design of the Designer.

NEVER doubt your Maker.   

“Earth spins once a day on its axis of rotation, an imaginary line running through the North and South Poles. The spinning Earth orbits the Sun once a year, tracing out an imaginary disk called the orbital plane or ecliptic plane.”

Point of interest, the same Catholic astronomer who discovered God accurately counted the stars and informed Abraham of the amount (not 1000 as Galileo’s competition Danish Tycho Brahe believed) being in the multiple billions.

Note as well, Galileo was under house arrest for his mistake that the orbits were circular NOT elliptical.  But he did well, because science is NOT simple, clean and untested.  Galileo is a hero in a hall of heroes of Catholic leaders, many priests, over time who discovered more about God’s creation.

“Compared to its orbital plane, Earth’s axis of rotation is tilted by about 23.4 degrees. This is referred to as Earth’s axial tilt or obliquity.

Earth’s axial tilt remains the same throughout the year. The North Pole always points toward the star Polaris, while the South Pole points toward the much dimmer star Polaris Australis. However, as Earth travels along its orbit, its tilt changes with respect to the Sun.

For six months of the year, the North Pole is tilted toward the Sun, and the Sun lies somewhere above the Northern Hemisphere. For the other six months, the South Pole is tilted toward the Sun, and the Sun lies somewhere overhead the Southern Hemisphere.

Earth takes 12 months to complete one lap around the Sun. Between March and September, the Northern Hemisphere receives more sunlight than the Southern Hemisphere. Between September and March, the Southern Hemisphere receives more sunlight. ©timeanddate.com”

The Equinoxes

There are only two moments each year when neither pole points toward the Sun, and the Sun lies directly above Earth’s equator. These moments are called the equinoxes.

The March equinox happens sometime between March 19 and 21. The September equinox occurs sometime between September 21 and 24.

In the Northern Hemisphere, the March equinox is also known as the spring or vernal equinox; the September equinox can be called the fall or autumnal equinox. In the Southern Hemisphere, the names are the other way around.

On the date of the equinox, at any location, the lengths of day and night are roughly equal.

Here’s my conjecture:  God put the lights in the sky and set them in motion, as well as the comets, planets and possibly a trillion celestial objects total.  Infinitely precise, and He not we maintain their travels.

We know the activities of the Garden and Jesus’ birth happen in the Northern Hemisphere so this is why our dates track that half of the earth above the Equator.

But mankind determined calendars to track, whether moon or sun based, all four seasons and starting  over.   Proof of God’s precision is the solar year continues to be 365.24 days each.  Suppose, the particulars of salvation history can more “align” with a well made calendar?  We will look at this later.  Two equinoxes, and two…

The Solstices

The farthest points from the equator where the Sun can appear directly overhead are referred to as the tropics.

The tropics are lines of latitude that circle the Earth above and below the equator, at about 23.4 degrees north and south. This angle is set by Earth’s axial tilt.

There are two moments each year when one of Earth’s poles is tilted the most toward the Sun, and the Sun lies directly above one of the tropics. These moments are the solstices.

The June solstice takes place sometime between June 20 and 22, when the Sun is directly above the Tropic of Cancer in the Northern Hemisphere. As a rough guide, the Tropic of Cancer passes through Mexico, northern Africa, the Middle East, India, and China.  (Author’s point: Giza is in Northern Africa)

The December solstice happens sometime between December 20 and 23, when the Sun is directly over the Tropic of Capricorn in the Southern Hemisphere. In brief, the Tropic of Capricorn runs through South America, southern Africa, and Australia.

In the Northern Hemisphere, the June solstice and December solstice can be referred to as the summer solstice and winter solstice. In the Southern Hemisphere, June is winter and December is summer.

On the date of the summer solstice, all locations in that hemisphere experience their longest days and shortest nights. The winter solstice produces the shortest days and longest nights.

Remarkable truth:  Giza becomes 8 sided two times a year, at dusk and dawn.   Discovered recently, the solstices do more than mark time.   Giza exhibits their four primary sides become eight sides via shadows at the beginning and end of each Northern Hemisphere solstice ANNUALLY.  The spiritual significance is detailed later, but it will amaze you.

Supplemental: Proving NOTHING is random with God: Equinoxes and Solstices on Other Planets

Every planet in the solar system, apart from Mercury, is tilted on its axis of rotation. This means each planet has its own equinoxes and solstices
Venus and Jupiter have small axial tilts of 2.6* and 3.1 degrees, respectively. Venus orbits the Sun more quickly than Earth—in Earth time, an equinox or solstice happens on Venus every couple of months or so. Jupiter orbits more slowly; an equinox or solstice occurs there about every three Earth years.
MarsSaturn, and Neptune have tilts similar to Earth’s: the values are 25.2, 26.8, and 28.3 degrees, respectively. At the equinoxes on Saturn, the planet’s famous rings appear edge-on as seen from Earth.”

When God fixed the “lights” in the sky, He was deliberative  and intentional.  It was a lot more than just jamming the moon and sun in place

I surmise so much of His design focuses us, much like the inspired word/Word on parchment, on His plans for us on earth and His gift of eternity. 

But His Ultimate Gift remains: His Eucharistic Son.  As I am trying to demonstrate, Giza is just the shiny light on the hill, so to speak, actually on the desert floor…before it was stripped of its outer garment of brilliant mirrored limestone cover/casing stones, that pointed His human race to His Son.  Redundant to say the Eucharistic Lord is the ultimate thanksgiving gift?  Maybe.

For those who traveled to Indianapolis July 2024, most know we have had periodic Eucharistic celebrations over the years,International Eucharistic Congress 2024 - Cati Mattie in the US and internationally.   Notably the 65,000 gathered in Bishop Cozzen’s led 5 day event at Lucas Oil stadium, Indianapolis, IN  July, 2024.  Soon after, another Eucharistic celebration took place in a special city: Quito.

Before you know it: in the US,  2033 is expected to be a prudential large celebration of the Ultimate Gift, the 2000th anniversary of His Bloodless AND Bloody events: the Last Supper (first neo Passover) and Friday the 13th day of Abib: Calvary.

Yet, friends, please realize we don’t need to wait for the next gathering: Jesus is available for our visitation in every Catholic church across the world, as well as for Holy Hours when the Ultimate Gift is exposed for worship.  As I study Giza’s role in history, I believe the Renaissance follows the Revival: God located the exact CENTER of His World and designed/built the World’s Largest Monument to His Eucharistic Son.

~Giza as the Salvation History Compass whose needle points to Middle Earth Sea and the City of David

Anyone who uses ‘Goggle Earth’ to locate Giza will see why, as it lines up with the device’s screen, why it deserves a  compass designation. Same for the inner world at the microscopic levels.

From the macro to the mini world of inner space, there is 35-75 trillion cells per body, starting with only two homo sapiens sapiens: Adam and Eve, male and female.   This gender affirmation stuff is pure evil. Mutilating teen breasts, castrating young men.  Does this sound Godly or demonic?  Easy answer except to the godless who worship zero as their god..

Yet believe what you want: God’s designs work.  It’s may be okay to play dress up and join the Pretenders Society but God wants US to know Him as He God is.  NOT all these recreations in so many areas.  Especially interfering with His design for mankind.

Giza is connected with Bethlehem using the “Christ angle” 26 degrees 18 minutes 9.63 seconds built inside

Suppose we recently discovered a physical directional device that dates back 4600 years. You open it up and it points directly over the spot where the Israelites and Moses left the clutches of their Egyptian enslavers, never to return.    And suppose the same unique vector from the directional device points 270 miles away, skirting the Mediterranean Sea and targeting the House of Bread.

We sing about the city, also called Beth’lehem at Christmas time each year. The blue line/vector heading out of Giza at 26 degrees 18 minutes 9.63 seconds of angular arc shows this phenomena.  270 or 3x3x3x10 miles away to the stable of Christmas, in the House of Meat as the Muslims state, OR as in God’s tradition and that of Israel, the House of Bread OF LIFE!

To see how important to God and mankind the actual city of the House of Bread is, let’s reverse engineer a little, maybe 4600 years ago.

The layout of Giza above and below ground level. The dates reflect one year per inch scholars have explained as prophetic events.

First question: where does the blue line above come from?  The entry and descending passageways in Giza have the angle 26 degrees 18 min  9.63 secs.    Since Giza is off only 3 seconds of arc, it makes the perfect compass with the “needle” pointing directly to Bethlehem.  (See the map picture above)

Believe it or let me prove it, 4600+ years ago, God planted the world’s largest stone monument, marker, pillar, even altar at the exact center of the World. 

The giant monument and marker is still there but in a terribly run down conditionThis marker was not a Star Trek civilization fossil, but remains to this day, silent in its magnificence, the last remaining wonder of the World. The brilliant Giza at the top is an artist’s rendering what it appeared as before the historic earthquake.

It also is a Catholic icon, which I hope to prove to my fave bishops, priests, lay friends and relatives, and the occasional atheist.

Breaking down the details.   It’s NOT just a pyramid in the classic geometry way.

It’s called Giza which translates to “Border”.  It’s “last name” is pyramidos, which transmorphs into the real name of this magnificent monument:  “Border fire in the middle”.  These can be readily explained below.

In another blog post I wrote, there is much more detail.  But God desires ALL of us to live forever, to discover Him and to “know, love and serve” our God. He does not rely just on scriptures but other objects and images to further the Maybe the world’s largest “building” can help the minds of the math motivated, the CSI/NCIS investigative types, see salvation history better.

Walk a bit farther with this author and fellow adventurer.

Giza IS located at the exact Center of the World. 

Early map showing this amazing characteristic only God could have known when built…unless Star Wars aliens built it between episodes.  I’ll side with God.

Prove it for yourself: take a globe and draw a line across the largest amount of land (a line that touches the most, ie land meridian) both east-west and north-south. Geographically, you will find the center near Cairo in Egypt.  Where have we heard that city before?

It also crisscrosses in the ocean on the other side but the fact on the exact Center of the World, exists an almost timeless marker only Creator God could position.

Theologically, Jesus the Christ IS the exact Center of OUR world, of history (ie His Story) formerly labeled BC or Before Christ and AD or Anno Domini, ie ‘in the year of the Lord’.

In a real sense, He is the Center of Eternity as we exist in the middle of timelessness as well.

More interesting,  Giza is the largest Compass on earth and one of the most accurate, off positionally by only three seconds of arc.  When you Google Earth “Giza” and zoom in, the Giza Pyramid lines up intrinsically and accurately with your computer screen.

Of import, at one time, it was covered with mirror bright ‘casing’ stones intricately joined, numbering an estimated 144,000 until they were stripped over centuries following a strong earthquake seven hundred years ago.

Why God allowed the earth shake is His call, not mine.  But it made for thousands of precut stones for minarets, mosques and other buildings in the Middle East.  Like the Giving Tree story, Giza has contributed in many ways to humanity.

Once discovered, the entryway (17, the Biblical number of ‘victory’, steps up) led down a passageway 344 feet to the bottom.  Of importance to what and why it existed, the passageway’s angularity measures 26 degrees, 18  minutes, 9.63 seconds.

The map graphic shows where it sits and how the angle plots out when rotated 90 degrees to the northeast of Cairo from the Center of the World.   I may be getting ahead of myself, but I believe the Father God foreshadowed, in various ways, His giving His Ultimate Gift, His Beloved Son mentioned at the Jordan baptism, conceived by a miraculous event through the Holy Spirit: born near in time (or ON the Winter Solstice) in the “no room at the inn” cave in the House of Bread of Life.

Geographically, notice where it points.  Then think of it theologically.  It points to Jesus’ birth in the New Testament after pointing to where the Israelites escaped (Red/Reed Sea), with their God’s help, on the same 26+degree heading.

Combine us with the mysteries of the House of Bread/Bethlehem Star, and things get most interesting.

The story of the Israelites escape from Pharaoh’s tyranny, Exodus is the OLD testament.  Bethlehem, the old and the new.  In the Old, the 7th century before Christ, prophet Isaiah has an intriguing verse sequence:

On that day there shall be an altar to the LORD at the center of Egypt, and a sacred pillar to the LORD near its boundary

This will be a sign and witness to the LORD of hosts in the land of Egypt, so that when they cry out to the LORD because of their oppressors, He will send them a savior to defend and deliver them…”

The oral/written Scriptures from the most prolific Christ prophet, Isaiah.

~Giza as the answer to prophecy

Fascinating verses but what has this ancient scripture to do with our modern Church?

I truly wonder if this Isaiah prophecy applies to Giza, the last of the great wonders of the ancient world.  The bold in red words/phrases above point to aspects of the Giza experience covered next.

  1. “Altar of the Lord”

    In Egypt? I thought they worshipped the pharoah, the purpose of all the other pyramids! Not the Lord God. But no pharaoh god was buried in the first and great Giza.  ALL of them, over 100, had their own custom made pyramidal shaped coffins Hmm.

In the OT, altars were places of bloody sacrifice.  Often, in the desert, a holocaust or animal was sacrificed to honor God as the people knew Him.

Recall, Abraham was commanded by God to sacrifice his son, Isaac to the God of Creation.  Yet, God stayed Abraham’s hand in killing his son and substituted a ram in the thicket.

That was both a bloodless sacrifice of the heart of Abraham, in obeying God and sparing Isaac; and a bloody one, in the ram/lamb God provided for the sacrifice.

Yet, historically, the last (and the first) bloodless sacrifice was at the altar in the upper room we know as the Last Supper and First Mass.  This “altar” of the Eucharist institution prefigured by a day the very bloody sacrifice on the Cross of Life on Good Friday. And there are unmistakable links to this time in Giza.

Giza with its flat top and the ‘quad-pod’ erected in 1842

Supposition: in the New Testament, suppose the 4600 year old 30 sf (or a match for the 14 x 3 foot Shroud and Council of Trent altar measurement?) flat top of Giza is an altar awaiting the bloodless and glorious return of the true Cornerstone of the whole New World of faith, of the Catholic Church: Jesus the Christ.

We know Jesus is our Savior (mentioned in the Isaiah quote) and we are the Bride of Christ.  But more than symbolically, I wonder if that altar top is where Jesus meets the Bride of Christ, the Church for the last time as heaven beckons all. It’s ok to discern…

Think about it; at my and your Catholic wedding (if married!), four marks should be reflected upon: FREEDOM to choose each other, two become one in TOTALITY, as we will be united with Christ forever.  Also, we pledge as one male and female total fidelity, ie faithfulness to each other, the man as the archetype of Christ sacrificing everything, even life to death for our new spouse, the bride of our dreams.  As we dads pledge our love, honor and protection for the children that God will provide to most of us.

WE humans pledge “until death do us part”.  But Jesus’ pledge, already sealed at the Crucifixion as the sacrificed Lamb of God, the true Passover alluded to as the Israelites escaped Egypt.  The “Christ Angle” as it is called (26+degree) forms a vector that skirts the Mediterranean (Middle Earth) Sea after passing over the place where the Israelites passed out of Egypt.

xx

Wow!!!  There were two pillars of Solomon at the Exodus spot where historically the Chosen people crossed the Red Sea; Saudi Arabia, not a fan of JudeoChristian spirituality, has replaced the one on their side with a flag (sadly), but the Giza “vector” continues on to complete its 270 mile “journey” to the House of Bread (the Bread of the Universe).

We know this city, this destination spot, as Bethlehem.

Was it an accident that angle of entry now the angle of exit points to the city of Jesus’ birth?  God does nothing by accident, being a loving purposeful God.   Our Father has looked forward for all eternity to His Son being the Ultimate Eucharist Gift (the Gift that keeps on giving daily) and directed our sights in words and images, symbolic and real to the future.

Giza is a four sided structure, yet it appears eight sided on the solstices at dawn and dusk (explained later) built WITHOUT a capstone.

A cornerstone for the top corner of the pyramid shaped object is missing; leaving only about 30 sq ft of flat surface.

Could this be the “altar of the Lord” planted in Egypt that Isaiah refers to?  It’s been there since 2621BC. Pyramidologists and scholars believe the time line begins at 2141BC when the North Star first shown down its 344 foot descending passageway to the bottom; last time a North Star shown down the entry passage to the bottom, fyi, was 2007 AD. The world did not end but…

Some scholars surmise, since there are only two markings in Giza, one a map scale “pyramid” or “sacred Jewish” inch.  And a circle scored in the rock in the passageway, they see this as a starting point for a “time line” of history.  His Story.

Timeless timeline

The Rutherford Time~Map based on one pyramid inch per solar year.  Yes the angles of both main passages are 26 degrees 18 minutes and 9.63 seconds. Giza is the ONLY Egyptian pyramid with below ground level passages.

If this timeline of prophetic history is real, it is amazing.

For example, using this one year per inch motif, the transition point is 1453 AD when the descending entry passage reaches the ascending passage to the Queen and King’s separate chambers.

Is anything significant about that year?  How about this: the Fall of Constantinople, (May 29, 1453) and conquest of the city by Sultan Mehmed II of the Ottoman Empire.

The dwindling Byzantine Empire came to an end when the Ottomans breached Constantinople’s ancient land wall after besieging the city for 55 days. Mehmed surrounded Constantinople from land and sea while employing cannons to maintain a constant barrage of the city’s formidable walls.

Sounds significant…more on this later.

2 “Center of Egypt”   (Center of the World too!)

This is interesting and a tricky one.  At one time, there were two Egypts, lower and upper.  This is how the Isaiah verses can make sense, should we understand that King Menes united the two Egypts around the year 2900 BC in Egypt’s early dynastic period.  He founded his capital at Memphis, pictured here.

The Great Pyramid of Giza Was Inspired by God.

So, Giza is at the border of one and in the middle of the other; Giza divided Egypt it is believed.  Notice the “Lower Egypt” is at the northern end of the life giving Nile as it dumps into the Mediterranean.

King Menes is known to have redirected the Nile as well but understand what he did do, fits well in the actual translation of “Giza Pyramid”:

“Border Fire in the Middle”

3)  “Sacred Pillar”.

Giza, not only the world’s largest compass and timekeeper, it is a pillar made sacred by its placement and focus on Jesus.  And features unique to it.

Of course, the pharaohs built their super ego burial places, but Giza had no body, no capstone, only a worn, empty coffer with the same dimensions as that of the Ark of the Covenant.  Not Mary’s womb, the new testament Ark of the New Covenant, but the Ark of Solomon that no man could touch in transit. Recall what was INSIDE the Ark:

Ark of the  Old Covenant

“Interestingly, the most complete inventory of the contents of the ark of the covenant is found in the New Testament: Hebrews 9:4 says that the Most Holy Place had “the gold-covered ark of the covenant. This ark contained the gold jar of manna, Aaron’s staff that had budded, and the stone tablets of the covenant.” The stone tablets were those on which God had written the Ten Commandments.

God made a conditional covenant with the children of Israel through His servant Moses. He promised good to them and their children for generations if they obeyed Him and His laws, but He always warned of despair, punishment, and dispersion if they were to disobey. As a reminder of His covenant, the Lord had the Israelites make a box, according to His design, to house the stone tablets containing the Ten Commandments. This box, or ark, was to be kept in the inner sanctum of the wilderness tabernacle and eventually in the temple when it was built in Jerusalem. This chest is known as the ark of the covenant.

Moses instructed Bezalel, God’s anointed craftsman, to build the ark of the covenant (see Exodus 37:1–925:10–22). The “sacred chest” was to be a rectangular wooden box made from acacia wood, overlaid “inside and out with pure gold,” measuring approximately “45 inches long, 27 inches wide, and 27 inches high” (Exodus 37:1–2, NLT). The chest was fitted with two pairs of gold rings on either side in which permanent poles were inserted for transporting the ark. No one was allowed to touch the ark out of reverence for God’s holiness. The poles were also fashioned with acacia wood and overlaid with gold.

The ark of the covenant was built to contain the two tablets of the law given to Moses by God (Exodus 25:1621). These tablets were also known as “the testimony,” and thus, the ark was also called “the ark of the testimony” (see Numbers 4:5Joshua 4:16, ESV). In the original Hebrew, the word translated as “testimony” refers both to the terms of God’s covenant with Israel as written on the tablets of stone and to the covenant itself. Later, Moses had Aaron place inside the ark a jar of manna to remember God’s faithfulness in providing miraculous bread from heaven (Exodus 16:433) and Aaron’s staff that had budded as a warning against rebellion (Numbers 17:1–13Hebrews 9:4).

A lid called the “mercy seat” or “the place of atonement” was constructed for the box (see Exodus 25:17). The mercy seat was made of pure gold and covered the entire length and width of the chest. Bezalel crafted two cherubim from hammered gold and molded them atop each end of the mercy seat so that the whole lid was one solid piece of gold. The cherubim faced each other and looked down on the mercy seat with their wings spread wide, overshadowing and protecting it.

The real significance of the ark of the covenant involved the mercy seat. The Hebrew word for “mercy seat” meant “cover, appeasement, or place of atonement.” Once a year, the high priest entered the holy of holies where the ark of the covenant was kept, and here he atoned for his sins and the sins of the Israelite people (Leviticus 16:2–16). Seven times, the priest sprinkled the blood of sacrificed bulls and goats onto the mercy seat. This atonement on Yom Kippur appeased God’s wrath and anger for past sins committed.

The lid of the ark of the covenant was termed a “seat” because this sacred place was considered God’s holy throne (see Psalm 99:1). Here, the Lord spoke to Moses from between the winged cherubim (Numbers 7:89). Here, where the sacrificial blood was sprinkled and God’s mercy was dispensed, was the only place in the world where atonement could take place.

The mercy seat on the ark was a symbolic foreshadowing of the ultimate sacrifice for all sin—the blood of Christ shed on the cross for the remission of sins (Hebrews 7:279:12–141 Peter 1:18–19). The apostle Paul, a former Pharisee and one familiar with the Old Testament, knew this concept quite well when he wrote about Christ being our covering for sin in Romans 3:24–25: “And all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. God presented Christ as a sacrifice of atonement, through the shedding of his blood—to be received by faith.”

Just as there was only one place for atonement of sins in the Old Testament—the mercy seat of the ark of the covenant—so there is also only one place for atonement in the New Testament—the cross of Jesus Christ (1 John 2:21 Peter 3:18). As Christians, we no longer look to the ark but to the Lord Jesus Himself as the One who covers, cleanses, cancels, and atones for our sins (1 John 4:10).

As the Israelites traveled from Mount Sinai to Canaan, the ark of the covenant was to be carried before them through the wilderness as a constant reminder of God’s holy, living presence (Numbers 10:33–36). The ark played a central role in Israel’s entrance into the Promised Land (Joshua 3:3615–164:96:4–16) and the life of God’s people there (Joshua 8:33Judges 20:26–28).

Eventually, Israel lost sight of the ark’s true significance. In 1 Samuel 4, the nation was battling the Philistines. When the Israelites suffered a loss, rather than deal with the real problem—sin—they fetched the ark and took it into battle. They viewed the ark as little more than a talisman or ceremonial token that would ensure God’s help. As a result, they suffered another defeat, and God allowed the ark to be captured by the Philistines (1 Samuel 4:1–1117–225:1–12). But the hand of the Lord was heavy on the Philistines, so they returned the ark (1 Samuel 6:1–310–15197:1–2).

Much later, King David had the ark brought to Jerusalem (2 Samuel 6:1–1217), and when his son Solomon completed the temple, the ark and all the tabernacle furnishings were placed inside the temple (1 Kings 8:1–12).

The Bible doesn’t say precisely when the ark of the covenant was lost to history. Some speculate it was destroyed or potentially removed during various raids (see 1 Kings 14:25–282 Kings 14:8–14). The last time the location of the ark is mentioned in Scripture is when King Josiah ordered the caretakers of the ark to return it to the Jerusalem temple (2 Chronicles 35:1–6; cf. 2 Kings 23:21–23). The ark is not cited in the list of temple spoils that Nebuchadrezzar took to Babylon when Jerusalem was sacked (2 Kings 25:13–17Jeremiah 52:17–23).

The origins of Israel’s ark of the covenant are as mysterious and fascinating as its current whereabouts and final destiny. Archeologists and treasure hunters have sought to find it for centuries. In Revelation 11:19, John sees the ark of the covenant as part of the future heavenly temple. However, this is probably not the same ark Moses built; instead, the heavenly ark is more likely a symbolic representation of God’s holy presence.

Ark of the New Covenant~Mary

xxxxxxxxx

How did Khfu Construction Inc. know this, not to mention an Egyptian pharoah would care little about Jewish religious history.

This last bit should be mulled and understood: God dictated the dimensions of the Ark of the Covenant, both the old testament one during David/Solomon and the organic one, whom God knew for all eternity past: Mary ever Virgin.

It was a bit brighter in the past. ACTUALLY Super brilliant

It is hard to visualize today, but the true translation (Fire in the Middle) of pyra-midos focuses on the incredible brilliance of the mirror stone covered object, Giza.  Unique property of light is how it is focused like the thousands of focused mirrors in the Mojave Calif desert to generate electricity, Ivanpah project, now being scrapped for inefficiency

Those Giza cover stones were “quarried” actually robbed off Giza after the aforementioned earthquake, moved off the structure over centuries (not easy to steal all 144,000 stones in a year) and used for minarets and mosques in the nearby muslim neighborhoods.

But, before the ‘regifting’ of the hard limestone polished bright blocks, it WAS a sacred pillar, viewed as if on fire, especially mid day on the Spring Equinox when it featured NO shadow.

This last is very important: it’s maximum “fire” effect, its brightest point was high noon on the Spring Equinox (I wonder March 25th?).  What took place at that time one year (33ad) in history?  Answer:Jesus was dying on the cross and the “sun refused to shine” for 3 hours.  Giza would “refuse to shine” as well, ie NO massive fire effect, totally dark.

Grasp this reality: for 26 centuries, it could be seen from the moon, especially at his high point; this Friday the 13th month of Abib separated old and new, the past and future of His Story.  NO LIGHT as if the Light of the World was going out.

I believe, as you could, God designed it this way, the whole solar system’s properties.  The designers of the new Assumption church at St Michael’s Abbey did it as well.  At about 4pm, evening vespers the same sun shines through the Rose Window and focuses light ON THE ALTAR.

God leaves nothing to chance; He is precise.

He created the earth’s 23.4 degree angularity, and with four transitioning seasonal points: spring equinox, the summer solstice, fall equinox and winter solstice.  We will look at the Northern Hemisphere; in astronomy, the reasons are simple.

The first day of new life, rebirth from the winter so to speak in the Northern Hemisphere, of spring, the sun rises over Bethlehem viewed from Giza.  More fascinating, all year Giza does have a shadow: but at high noon on the Spring Equinox, it was at its MAX brightness with ZERO shadow.

Today, we celebrate spring’s return on March 20-21st.  Suppose, with a four day correction, God conformed the seasonal changes for His prophetic purposes to the 25th’s?

If it was March 25th, you have Spring Equinox coinciding with the date of Mary’s annunciation (Jesus’ conception) and as the Church tradition has it, his death as well.  You may or may not know that Jesus died on March 25th (gregorian calendar) and Friday the 13th in the Hebrew month of Abib (wonder why the secular calls Friday the 13ths “unlucky?”)

Conjecture: God’s prophecy ‘calendar’ does not conform to just the oral tradition, written Scriptures and printed Bibles: He uses 3D materials, symbols and supplements a reference to an important eternal truth in multiple ways.

Simply put, for you budding Biblical salvation history archeologic types, this 4 day offset puts the winter solstice on the day Jesus is born; reinforcing this truth is the solstice phenomena that the four sided “pyramid” appears as an 8 sided object at both the beginning (dawn) and ending (dusk) of  the day, on June 25th and Dec 25th, also His birthday.

A bit in the weeds here, but at dawn and dusk on the solstices, Giza appears as an EIGHT sided object. What is importance of eight (8) in salvation history?

8 is Jesus’ number; 888 is Jesus number magnified!

Supposition: we need to prove 8 is Jesus’ number.  In fact His name alphanumerically is 888 as the graphic shown here.  Greek and Hebrew assign numbers to their letters…and translated, Jesus becomes 888.

Scholars believe 8 represents new birth, rebirth, resurrection when it is used in scripture; same is confirmed in life.  Think music, sound and light.

Apply to music (the 8th note is like the first but as a harmonic); in Noah’s time, 8 humans remained and floated in the ark, an actual “rebirth” of mankind. A week has seven days, but renews on Monday or the 8th day. You can think of additional examples, I am sure!

Timeless timeline

The layout of the passages and chambers inside the Giza posited by Adam Rutherford in 1957

It’s not superstition though we need be careful: many numbers have Biblical implications and purposes.

12 tribes and 12 apostles; 144 in revelations (12×12)on governance and the number of Giza casing stones x 1000 or the reference to 144,000 cover stones.

Seven (7) is the number of perfection (days in the week, whole notes in the scale, 7 days of creation etc.),

The number 3 refers to the Trinity, which God wants us to learn more about over time. Not an easy task to figure out.

AND, one of the reasons for this blog.

As St Augustine couldn’t figure it out, certainly it will not be fully known until heaven. Even then, friends, how will we understand how God has existed as a Trinitarian “family” FOREVER previous?

This is why, since eternity past and future, mathematically are identical vectors, I contend we live each day IN THE MIDDLE OF ETERNITY/INFINITY.

But we only match God day by day looking forward…basically math brains: we humans live IN the middle of eternity, but God has existed FROM eternity past and exists in the exact middle…something even Fr. Holy Joe Horn, Fr Edmund, our bishops or other smart people can’t truly fathom.  Nor can I; it’s called the Augustine Conundrum…

Fascinating, Giza has existed (~2623BC) before and WHILE early salvation history was unfolding.  It’s importance dates from 2141BC when Giza is used as a prophetic timeline based on when the North Star first shown down the very long entry passage to the 344 foot bottom.

But, from Genesis 1, when God gives us a hint in “Let US make man in our image”, He also points to His Son via the Giza Christ Angle that is built into the Giza’s internal passageways. As any proud Father would!  He just has more power, infinitely more than any of us human dads.

Fast forward to the Jordan baptism: the Holy Spirit is visible as a dove, as the Father’s booming voice shouts “This is my beloved Son…”.   Yes, no mention in Biblical text this Trinity word…but neither does other things like ice cream.

Lucky for us, there is further proof that 13 is both the date of Christ’s death in the Hebrew calendar (Friday the 13th, month of Abib) and the sequential Marian Fatima appearances (May 13, June 13 etc).  In other writings, I posit why six 13s in a row instead of the 3rd Saturday or 4th Tuesday of each month: God used His mother’s visits as further confirmation that 3 in 1 or 1 out of 3, ie 13, is an important aspect of Whom He Is.

An amazing number NOT by accident did Jesus quantify it. as to Pokemon…

Number 17 and 153…We know there are 17 steps to the entrance passageway of Giza: in the Bible, 17 is the number associated with victory.  For the math wise, like Fr Joe Horn and Fr Edmund both Premonstratensian Norbertine priests, 17 is also a component of Jesus’ 153 caught fish after Resurrection.

Always dig deep! Why would the Gospels mention an exact haul at 153 after a fruit less err fish less night on the water?

This is another confirmation to me that God has immense perfect mathematical abilities: 17 x 3 x 3 equals 153, no arbitrary number, reflecting in a way the victory of the Trinity multiplied by the Trinity.

Jesus was showing the Apostles who traveled with Him, the abundance of the fields that need their work as the Church (Harvest is great, but the laborers are few).  More interesting, maybe of import, 153 is also a sum, ie. 1+2+3…+17, amplifying the importance of this number in salvation history.

Math, like the other sciences, religion, truth and faith is intertwined in God’s view of the universe; it’s us imperfect humans that overly compartmentalize everything.   Sometimes, first grade level “Baltimore” catechesis is the best:

God just wants us to “KNOW Him, LOVE Him and SERVE Him” for our own good.

More on sacred Pillars…

Pillars are common in the world. We have the obelisk pillar in Washington DC; the Solomonic pillars that mark the Red Sea miracle of parted Nile waters and now you’ve heard of the “Pillar of Fire” in Giza that predated the pillar of fire that guided the Israelites out of Egypt after the 10th plague, the first Passover.  Our Lady of the Pillar in 40AD, Mary’s bilocation experience with St James.

Point is, God gently taught us about His True Nature as ONE God with 3 persons, 1 3. Maybe WHY God sent Mary to Fatima on earth six times, on successive 13ths, instead of a monthly first Saturday.  Also, not coincidental, Fatima being the city named for the former Muslim wife of a Catholic prince in Portugal.

Mary set the record straight in 1917, 3 years after that junction point inside Giza of 1914.  Hmm.

4) “Boundary” Border.  xxxxxxxxx

Discussed previously, Giza literally means “border”.  NOT the Taco Bell or Southern American former Border, but the Boundary of a portion of Egypt.  Refer to King Menes about 2900bc who diverted the Nile and unified Egypt.

5)”Sign and witness to the Lord”

This is a very important aspect of Giza.  IF the time machine aspect of Giza is real, its beginning at 2141C with the North Star’s light hitting the bottom below ground 344 feet away, it also leads to junctures with other significant dates:

33AD as the Crucifixion, which begins the Grand Gallery (reportedly the Grand Galley was open for a period of time so theTimeless timeline locals could view the stars.  Who knows?) toward the Queen Chamber level and ascending to the King’s Gallery.  Look at the graphic created by Mr Rutherford.

Side note: Emanations to 1453AD proves it is timeless…and that Jesus promised the Church would endure through all time, despite even modern foolish prostiticians in Israel or DC trying hard to kill it off.

Though the Ottoman Sultan broke into Byzantine Constantinople and turned it into Istanbul, the Church endures throughout the world.

We are in interesting, stressful times on God’s green earth.  Battered by foolish, evil doctrines; embattled in so many ways fighting for Truth, Justice and in America, the American way.  Old but necessary words to fight for.

Then there is 1453 BC… what is SIGNificant about that year?  Could it be the year the Israelites actually entered the promised land after years of wandering?

Well, it begins the ascending passageway.  Then there is 1521AD, as the descending passage continues BELOW ground level.  The year is significant in our backyard when Hernan Cortes ended the rule of Montezuma and Technochtitlan (Mexico City) with 175 barefoot Franciscan friars preaching the gospel to the local Nahautl/Aztec people. Though 10 years later, the arrival of OLGuadalupe led to millions of converts to the Catholic faith.  And the image and the story of Mary’s appearance remain intact today.

After all, God KNOWS the future even as you read this, as the Trinity HAS known from eternity past.  Chew on that St Augustine! Good example IS Mary’s Guadalupe tilma/cloak. How?  The Creator at Creation set in motion the constellations and stars such that on Dec 12, 1531, the constellation Leo (of the Tribe of Judah, ie Jesus) hovered over Mary’s womb and the constellation Virgo the Virgin was over Mary’s heart in the image.  Scientists lined up the other constellations using the star map Mary’s stars pointed to.  No human nor super parallel processing computer could arrange this.

Signs TO the world.

Fulfilled two millennia afterwards, and discovered recently with the Christ Angle (26 degrees etc.) applied to the land, Giza is an extent directional sign to the world that Jesus, the Bread of Life, the life-giving unblemished and innocent Passover Lamb was born in the House of Bread. It  foreshadows  the importance of wine and wheat bread unleavened becoming Himself, body and blood, soul and divinity and the Source and Summit of our faith.  Daily.

Today, if the scales fall away from our eyes, we see that the irrefutable evidence of a Creator’s existence is the world’s largest Sign and Witness object that points directly to an important city, Beth’lehem only 270 miles away; to the Godhead that required all three Persons to validate the promise in that city on a date Catholic tradition (March 25) honors just nine months before the House of Bread (city)  housed (stable near the inn) we know as the Bread of Life.

The unfathomable Trinity I believe is also pointed to within the last wonder of the ancient and modern world, Giza. The hanging gardens of Babylon are gone, Giza remains.  God went BIG actually Biggest when He created His Son’s birth reveal in the world’s largest stone sculpture.  So many titles but I like the Monument to the King of king’s birth and the early Eucharist marker long before the Last Supper.

Its altar top waiting for the Cornerstone (ie Capstone) to return in glory?  I don’t know.  To Jerusalem? Or less than 300 miles away on the Giza plain.  Only the Trinity knows.  Yes, the word Trinity does not appear in Scripture, but irrefutable though tough to understand proof exists.

Another experience of “Trinity”, just before all three Persons expressed themselves in the muddy Jordan at Jesus’ Baptism around age 30, was at His and Mary’s Annunciation we celebrate March 25th.

A date I suspect marked the Spring Equinox millennia ago.   Three months later, the Summer Solstice and the Giza feature of Jesus’ number is shown twice each year, with 8 sided imagery in the shadows. Six more and we celebrate the birth of the New King that Herod feared, the Winter Solstice, with the Light of the World greeting the shortest day of the year filling it with His Love and Life.  Herod feared the Savior so much he killed upwards of some thousands of innocent young boys less than two years old.

A minor side track that illuminates the huge contrast of the darkness being broken by the Light of Christ, foreshadowed at Creation with the darkness and light separation of space, involves our English slave turned bishop of Eire, St Patrick. Worth a brief look, seeing the eternal allegories of light vs darkness, and attempts to share both Trinity and Christ:

~Giza and Bethlehem

Biblically, it is the place of the death of Rachel, the birth of David and Jesus, and the marriage of Ruth and Boaz.  It is known as the House of Meat to the Muslims, and the House of Bread to the Jews.  And it is the city called out for the Magi to visit to give gifts to the Ultimate Gift, the King of kings.

Bethlehem (/ˈbɛθlɪhɛm/Arabicبيت لحمBayt LaḥmpronunciationHebrewבֵּית לֶחֶם Bēṯ Leḥem)

Why was it important for God to point to the birthplace of David with Giza, as well as His Son?  Boaz, a prefigure type of the Savior, was married to Ruth in Bethlehem. In fact, here is seven ideas regarding Boaz prefiguring Jesus.

  1. Boaz was from Bethlehem – Ruth 2:4; Jesus was born in Bethlehem – Luke 2:4Matthew 2:6
  2. Boaz is a type of Christ because of his Godly character and grace-filled compassion. Boaz notices Ruth, talks to her, tells her to abide in his field with his maidens, and shows her grace. This reminds us of Jesus’ encouragement to abide in John 15. Like Boaz, Jesus has pity on us, calls us out, brings us into His field to labor alongside His workers, and gives grace.
  3. Boaz provides for Ruth like Jesus provides for us. He invites Ruth to drink when she’s thirsty (Ruth 2:9), and to eat his bread and corn (Ruth 2:14). Similarly, Jesus fed people physically and spiritually. A few examples are in Mark 8:2-9, Luke 9, and in John 6:35, where Jesus says He is the Bread of Life. Jesus satisfies every hunger and thirst and supplies our every need.
  4. Another way that Boaz is a type of Christ is seen in Ruth 2:1, where he is described as a “mighty man of wealth”. This means Boaz was a man of power and strength, a valiant, honorable man. Jesus is the strongest and most virtuous man to ever live. He is all-powerful and a mighty man indeed!
  5. Boaz is a gentleman. He doesn’t force himself on Ruth, like Jesus doesn’t force himself on us. He patiently waits for us to come to Him. In Ruth 3:10-13, Boaz is obviously pleased with Ruth’s request to redeem her, but He is careful to do it properly. This resembles the way that Jesus always did things according to God’s will and in His timing.
  6. In Ruth 3:15-17, Boaz sends Ruth away with six measures of barley as a sign of his promise to marry her. That was called a dowry, which was given to the bride’s family as a seal of the betrothal. Boaz is a type of Christ because Jesus gives the Holy Spirit to believers as a down payment for their inheritance. (2Cor. 1:222Cor. 5:5Eph. 1:13-14 and 4:30.)
  7. Boaz is a type of Christ as our Redeemer. Ruth 4:9-11 is the account of Boaz purchasing Ruth to be his wife. Jesus bought his bride with his blood. (1Cor. 6:20 and 7:23 and Romans 3:24-25)   (hat tip to ‘Daily His Disciple’)

Notes 

There is an Arabic story about a thief who defends the Holy Family running from Herod from his partners in crime.  It turns out his feast day is March 25th; we know him as San Dimas or Dismas the Good Thief.

De gustibus non est disputandum, or de gustibus non disputandum est, is a Latin maxim meaning “In matters of taste, there can be no disputes” (literally “about tastes, it is not to be disputed”).[1][2] The phrase is commonly rendered in English as “There is no accounting for tastes”[3] or “for taste”.[4]
