BREAKING - Fr. Thomas Haake was assaulted while in Washington DC.
He was walking down the street praying his Rosary.
Haake arrived in Washington to lead retreats in St Peter’s Church on Capitol Hill until July 2020.
He is a member of the Oblates of the Virgin Mary and is based in Rome. Haake served as a spiritual director, taught theology, bioethics, political science, and Italian.
He started an order in the Philippines and led retreats in Myanmar, Belgium, Poland, Germany, Spain, Italy, and Nigeria.
We must pray for Protection of our priests. If we don't who will?
Well, in this case you have to defend them in the firs place, not just withdraw and do other things like prayer and complaining. If you don't, who will?!
Had I been there, I so hope I would have been given the grace to defend him!
My Jesus protect our priests.
...and by all rights, that makes this a hate-crime. Strange the FBI isn't investigating it as such. They're too busy investigating bogus NASCAR nooses. :P
Yes. And pray for all those who persecute us. They do not know what harm they are doing to their souls.
