Fr. Ripperger would be the first one to say that obedience is going to be difficult and I think we all ought to take that stance in light of this news. It is unproductive (and potentially scandalous) to speculate as to why and to question the motives of the Bishop - and even worse to say anything uncharitable about him as a man. Instead, we should all share the content Fr Ripperger has put out that has helped change our lives. I have listened to every single one of his sermons on Sensus Fidelium and without them, I would not be the Catholic that I am today. I cannot properly put into words how grateful I am for Fr. May we all offer up our rosaries for him today.
