“He [Satan] will set up a counter-Church which will be the ape of the Church because, he the devil, is the ape of God. It will have all the notes and characteristics of the Church, but in reverse and emptied of its divine content. It will be a mystical body of the anti-Christ that will in all externals resemble the mystical body of Christ. In desperate need for God, whom he nevertheless refuses to adore, modern man in his loneliness and frustration will hunger more and more for membership in a community that will give him enlargement of purpose, but at the cost of losing himself in some vague collectivity.”
“Who is going to save our Church? Not our bishops, not our priests and religious. It is up to you, the people. You have the minds, the eyes, and the ears to save the Church. Your mission is to see that your priests act like priests, your bishops act like bishops.”
- Fulton Sheen

That way I have steady income I can plan on, and you wind up regularly on my list of benefactors for whom I pray and for whom I periodically say Holy Mass.
In view of the rapidly changing challenges I now face, I would like to add more $10/month subscribers. Will you please help?

"But if, in any layman who is indeed imbued with literature, ignorance of the Latin language, which we can truly call the 'catholic' language, indicates a certain sluggishness in his love toward the Church, how much more fitting it is that each and every cleric should be adequately practiced and skilled in that language!" - Pius XI
"Let us realize that this remark of Cicero (Brutus 37, 140) can be in a certain way referred to [young lay people]: 'It is not so much a matter of distinction to know Latin as it is disgraceful not to know it.'" - St. John Paul II
Grant unto thy Church, we beseech Thee, O merciful God, that She, being gathered together by the Holy Ghost, may be in no wise troubled by attack from her foes. O God, who by sin art offended and by penance pacified, mercifully regard the prayers of Thy people making supplication unto Thee,and turn away the scourges of Thine anger which we deserve for our sins. Almighty and Everlasting God, in whose Hand are the power and the government of every realm: look down upon and help the Christian people that the heathen nations who trust in the fierceness of their own might may be crushed by the power of thine Arm. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, who liveth and reigneth with Thee in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end. R. Amen.

Now he can hopefully be the Saints he loved so much.
An exemplary and holy priest, a wonderful spiritual writer. After such a long and productive life, may he indeed find his place among the saints.
Apparently it’s too early for an obituary to appear, but here is a short biography from EWTN:http://www.ewtn.com/library/PRIESTS/MYERS.TXT
The obituary for Fr. Myers can be read at http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/gazette/obituary.aspx?n=father-joseph-myers&pid=136604602 for those interested. What it doesn’t say is that Fr.Myers helped to keep the Traditional Latin Mass alive during those turbulent years when it was being suppressed. May he rest in the arms of Jesus, Mary and Joseph.
Wow-another well-known priest passes from this life!
I think I have one of his books…one he wrote on Our Lady.
May he rest in peace, and one day rise in glory!
haleype is right, Fr. Rawley Myers celebrated the first several TL Masses I attended at St. Mary’s Cathedral in the early 1990’s. He was a good and holy priest, and he’ll be sorely missed.
Here’s an interview with him on the 60th anniversary of his ordination.
Fr. Myers funeral mass will be at 11 AM Mountain time today, that’s an hour and a quarter from now. In your generosity, perhaps you could stop and pray for the repose of his soul at that time.
