Harvey Millican's Blog: Musings of a Trad Dad

A friend just texted me the news of the death of Bishop Richard Williamson. He was 84 years-old.

We all owe this man a debt. There have been men and women, priests, bishops, fathers, and mothers who have worked tirelessly to preserve the ancient Mass and the ancient and authentic Catholic faith that corresponds with it. Bishop Williamson was certainly among those.

Like many of you, I came to tradition later in my life. The first time my nephew, a likeminded man (who’s wife, coincidentally had been confirmed by the bishop) sent me a video of one of the bishop’s talks, I watched in amazement.

It is thanks to something the bishop said in one of those talks that I began the practice of praying the complete rosary every day – all 15 decades. I highly recommend it.

Bishop Williamson said, “Watch and pray, watch and pray; fifteen decades every day.”

Simple, beautiful, deeply devotional.

I will offer my decades for his soul this evening and I urge you to do the same.

Holy Mary, Mothernof God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death!

It is apparent that Bishop Williamson is in his final agony. Pray for him that he persevere and that Our Lady assist him at the hour of his death.

Side note: I have a niece who was confirmed by the good bishop.

Mary, Morher of Priests, pray for us!

Now, friends, let’s practice saying it to TradInc.

Yes, I know… He’s got his problems.

Still praying for his conversion.

But this wasn’t a bad news cycle to watch on a Sunday.

Hey Colombia, Daddy’s home and he’s not messin’ around.

Many of you have no doubt already seen this but it bears another look.

Remember when the antipope “excommunicated” Archbishop Vigano for professing the Catholic faith?

Think he or any of the countless other effeminate “swishops” will make a peep about this?

Go take a look at Canon 1374.

Or how about the 1983 letter from the then-CDF?

Or (shockingly) from the faggot Touch-me Fagnandez himself just recently?!

Then again, they didn’t declare him excommunicated when he frequently and flagrantly approached for Holy Communion while also actively pushing for the slaughter of babies nor did they say a word when he performed the fake marriage of a sodomite couple nor for any of the other public sins he’s committed over his 8,000 years in public office.

May God have mercy on his soul and may he repent before he dies.

As for the bishops? May they remember, as Chrysostom said, that the floor of hell is paved with the skulls of their brothers.

Our Lady, Mediateixnof all Grace, pray for us!

On my flight home yesterday, my plane took off to the south from EWR. I love this direction because it takes me directly over this:

This, friends, is the Catholic Church of St. Patrick in Elizabeth, NJ and Our Lord Jesus Christ reposes inside a tabernacle in this edifice as He does in tabernacles all over the planet. He remains there for love of us poor wretches. And overflying His Majestic Presence gave me pause to make the sign of His Holy Cross, bow my head, and utter, “My Lord and my God!” Folks, I already had the beads out and was offering my rosary for safe travels. I have to say, all of this must have been strange to the elderly Muslim couple sitting next to me. Oh, they were eyeing my every move. Interestingly, they both offered me thanks as we touched down. I’m not sure if they were being sarcastic or genuinely thankful for the prayers.

No matter, it is always a good day when I behold the dwelling place of God.

Deo Gratias! Sit semper Deo Gratias!
