Mass Prohibited: Francis' Centralism Turns Bishop Into Crash-Test Dummy

Fargo Bishop John Folda, 61, North Dakota, told his faithful in January he would ask Rome for permission to keep the Roman Mass at his cathedral, Sara Ray, one of the faithful concerned, reported on social media.

This week, Folda received the, predictably, negative response. Folda will close the doors of the Cathedral for the Mass on September 11.

Possible alternatives include another church or a Novus Ordo Eucharist in Latin at the cathedral, facing God, but no concrete options have yet been discussed.

Folda is "conservative". The pictures below show him in April 2021 at a prayer in front of an abortion clinic in North Dakota.

Another one down: Fargo. Surely, it was a very polite letter.

St Andrew, like all the Apostles did not ask Peter if they could offer the Holy Sacrifice, as it was not Peter's to give.
The Apostles of today are weak silly men who hide behind the sinful abuse of power and call it "obedience" what silly nonsense.
We need to pray that Our Lord grant's this dreadful man on the Chair of Peter a Pauline Conversion before his coming death and judgement and that his pompous acolytes Roche et al are granted the same Divine light.

Not "conservative," just a faithful Catholic... 😊

Francis is apostate antipope who leads sect in buildings that were Church's. See more at vaticancatholic.com

He was looking for an out. With shepherds like this, who needs wolves?

Perhaps they are wolves in sheeps clothing!

He should have stuck to his guns and continued it; if he'd been dismissed, I'm sure many of his parishioners would have supported him practically. Spiritually, it's better to disobey Francis and be faithful to God.

Jeffrey Ade

That is a nice thing to say but it should be obvious he has no guns, he is a wolf in sheep's clothing!

I wasn't trying to be nice - while he's 'obeying' Francis he's disobeying God.
