I am not surprised by 1823 she says only a few hundred priests were left I actually think it started some where mid 1700. But the most important thing is the Mass, the confessional and the Mass as long as they were inviolate untouched and preserved we were ok because there is no catholic church without it. But all was loss in 1968.when we lost the Mass the clock started ticking its only a matter of time before Judment Day and with francis being the last pope And some 50 years without a church or mass it won't be long now. I just wish the chrilden didn't have to suffer like this especially by these imposter priests minsters and rabbis.
