- Bishop Lazo's Letter - A Catholic Bishop, Bishop Salvador L. Lazo, wrote a letter to the Pope on Ascension Thursday of 1998. In the letter, the retired bishop gives his "Declaration of Faith", explaining in detail his reasons for rejecting the Modernism entrenched in the Church, in all of its forms, including the New Mass, false ecumenism, and the reforms of Vatican II. For traditional Catholics, this letter represents a vindication of their adherence to Tradition and the Church before Vatican II, seemingly against the wishes of the Pope. For Catholics who attend the New Mass or who are not aware of the problems in the Church, this letter provides a source for serious contemplation and prayerful thought. For all, it is a "must read." We present it to you all, not feeling at all to be overemphasizing its importance, in the hopes that you will read and distribute it, bearing much fruit.
