“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

"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.

Fr. – I love the food-related posts. It’s been nice to see you enjoying some of the finer things in life this weekend: traditional liturgy, Bombay Saphire, and good Chinese food. Enjoy the rest of your time in D.C.!
The local Chinese restaurant that was so good for so many years is now under new management and the food is terrible! I’m now over an hour away from any decent Chinese food. :-(
Bu hao!
Assuming you are staying in Chinatown, I would recommend the Spy Museum which is very close. It is one of the best museums in all of DC!
PghCath: Thanks for that. But if we think about that “finer things” part… only about a billion people in the world eat noodles in a day’s time. I admit fewer than a billon people have Bombay Sapphire. The world might be a better place if they did. That said, the noodles were really good, and simplicity itself, and lunch came in under $7.
“We are noodle people!”
Best noodle restaurant is in Arlington…Vietnamese of course! Pho75 1721 Wilson Blvd, Arlington (Btwn N Rhodes & N Quinn St)
“Broth is in our veins!”
I had the fried noodles. Next time, if there is one there, in soup.
I sat down to lunch today for some Chinese noodles and decided to check WDPRS to bide the time. What do I see as the most recent post? “Lunch….Chinese Noodles!”. Next thing you know I will spontaneously start to sing Chinese opera. Scary.
Fr., Try the Tokyo Taipei Cafe in WhiteFlint. You can easily walk from the Red Line subway. Some of the best food I’ve had. Better than most places in Chinatown.
Oh, for shame! How could you pass on dumplings? There’s always room for dumplings!
I’m so upset that you haven’t had the dumplings I just hit the paypal button and sent dumpling funds.
