Now that the Motu Proprio Summorum Pontificum
has
acknowledged that the Missal of Saint Pius V was
never
abrogated, it is only right and just to recall to
mind what
Archbishop Lefebvre used to say, he whose fidelity
to the
Mass of all times was dismissed as disobedience.
Until the end of 1981,
when its Archbishop retired, the Diocese of Campos, Brazil was unique within the
Roman Rite of the Catholic Church. Its bishop, Msgr. Antonio de Castro
Mayer, had refused to adopt the new rite of Mass promulgated by Pope Paul
VI in 1969. He insisted upon retaining the Traditional Latin Mass as
the official liturgy of his diocese. The Bishop made this decision for
two reasons: firstly, he claimed that the New Mass was not mandatory;
secondly, he claimed that the New Mass presented a danger to the faith
of his people. The Bishop sent a detailed justification of his position
to the Vatican in 1980. Campos remained faithful to the traditional Catholic
Latin and Gregorian Mass according to the Roman Missal of St. Pius V and Rome
never publicly contradicted the bishop.
In April of 1982, five Monsignori and twenty other priests of the diocese
of Campos signed a "Profession of Catholic Faith in the Face of Present Errors."

in the wake of a recent document released by the Vatican.

There was a minuscule change in the wording of the Holy Eucharist at the
Liberal Catholic Church of St. Francis
"Joy is not the same as pleasure or happiness. A wicked
and evil man may have pleasure, while any ordinary
mortal is capable of being happy. Pleasure generally
comes from things, and always through the senses;
happiness comes from humans through fellowship. Joy
comes from loving God and neighbor. Pleasure is quick
and violent, like a flash of lightning. Joy is steady
and abiding, like a fixed star. Pleasure depends on
external circumstances, such as money, food, travel,
etc. Joy is independent of them, for it comes from a
good conscience and love of God."
"Guide to Contentment", p. 120 (1967)
