Recently,
three prelates authored a 60-page booklet entitled Preferential Option for the Family, designed to catechize the faithful
regarding Church teaching on marriage and the family. Archbishop Aldo de Cillo Pagotto of Paraíba, Brazil, Bishop Robert Vasa of Santa Rosa, CA,
and Bishop Athanasius Schneider,
auxiliary of Astana, Kazakhstan, present 100 questions and answers about the
Synod on the Family, providing a welcome defense of Church teaching on marriage
and family.
[The above is the first paragraph of my article at Church Militant; read the rest here. Also, I am writing semi-regularly for CM, and you can see a list of my previous articles here.]
This little booklet is well
worth reading. It probably won’t please those who harbor a desire for a change
in Church teaching regarding the reception of Holy Communion by the
divorced-and-remarried, but it provides a wonderful resource for the defense of
the doctrine by faithful Catholics. It also gives some insights into and
evaluations of the processes involved in the staging of the Synod on the
Family.
These prelates pull no punches!
They will prepare you for any “surprises” that might erupt in the Synod this
fall, so that you may respond knowledgeably and confidently to any threats to
Church doctrine.
Today (Monday, July 13, 2015),
Church Militant has aired a Vortex touting this book. Here it is! Go to the
Church Militant website to see the transcript.
Church Militant has probably already run out of the copies they are handing out for free, but complimentary copies of the booklet can be obtained by emailing supplicafiliale@gmail.com
