Unpublished by St. Louis Review

Though many people on many occasions, have brought and continue to bring to our attention, that they have sent letters to the Review which were left unpublished, here is one that recently came to our attention.

The letter below, is a response to the Review editorial published, December 16, 2021. This response letter was never published by the Review, is from Bob Baker, a CREDO Member and former Board Member. Bob first learned of the Association of U.S. Catholic Priests (AUSCP) in 2019, when CREDO held a Rosary rally outside of their national conference in St. Louis. CREDO along with other St. Louis Catholics, were present on the hotel property, as Abp. Carlson offered AUSCP’s Mass (admittedly, at least his third annual AUSCP convention Mass) and Abp. Cupich gave the keynote address. With much of AUSCP’s mission seeming challenging to Church teaching, it is no wonder, all the clergy in attendance seemed to be aligned with all things homosexual, obvious in word and in deed. This summary of the convention environment, sadly did not exclude the aforementioned Mass. Read more “Unpublished by St. Louis Review” →

It is with great sadness we tell you our dear, dear friend, and devout Catholic mother, wife and leader, Jacqueline (Jackie) Hummel passed from this work to the next on October 20, 2021.

Jackie was a CREDO Gold Member, a generous and tireless volunteer, and a donor. In her later years, Jackie’s strong devotion to the Catholic faith became more evident as her bravery and uniqueness came into play. She and her dear husband, Bill, continue to grow in our One True Faith. They followed the Lord closely; it was towards a fervent and orthodox Catholicism. No matter where it led, and despite any possible foreign or uncomfortable feelings during her journey, Jackie always sought to follow the one true Catholic faith.

Funeral Announcement-Loretta Brandt

August 12, 2021March 2, 2022

Dear CREDO of the Catholic Laity Friends,

It is with great sadness, I tell you Howard Brandt, one of CREDO’s founder’s, has just lost his dear wife, Loretta. Loretta passed on Monday, August 9, 2021. Loretta, along with her dear husband, Howard, was a cornerstone of CREDO. We have now been able to gather good information to forward to you.

From its inception in 1995, until the last 6 years – as long as she was able – Loretta, working tirelessly, helped the CREDO Board with each and every CREDO newsletter and CREDO event with meticulous detail and perseverance. Loretta most lovingly hand printed the nametags for all CREDO events and often helped welcome CREDO guests!

One of their main goals was to have the Traditional Latin Mass (TLM) liturgy be brought back to life in our St. Louis Archdiocese and even taking hold at the Holy Family Log Church in their Belleville Diocese as well. Loretta often directed others to the TLM, as far back as 1985 at St. Agatha’s! She lived to see her work come to fruition in a miraculous way.

Loretta was a joy to those around her, if only through her kindly demeanor, even during her last days on earth. Requiescat in pace, our dear Loretta!

Visitation is at Assumption Catholic Church, 4725 Mattis Rd., St. Louis 63128 on Friday, from 10 until the Holy Mass at 11 a.m. Interment will follow at Mt Caramel Cemetery, Bellville, 12:30. In lieu of flowers donations to the Alzheimer’s Assn. appreciated. Funeral services are being provided by Kutis South County.

N.B.: It is our understanding Loretta’s Holy Mass offered will be in the Novus Ordo form.

Evidence shows Cardinal Glennon Hospital is referring mothers to…

July 19, 2021July 20, 2021

Communique to St. Louis Catholics

Background:

It has been reported that SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital (Maternal and Fetal Care Department), a Catholic institution supported by the Archdiocese of St. Louis, has referred pregnant women with developmentally disabled unborn children to the Hope abortion center in Granite City, IL for abortions. Three recent instances of such referrals were discovered at the gates of the Hope abortion center by Catholic pro-life volunteers, who then investigated and documented their experiences.

SSM executives have refused to meaningfully engage in discussions and show no indication of changing their practices.
Surprisingly, the Archdiocese of St. Louis has refused to take action consistent with Church standards for addressing and investigating child abuse allegations that are at least credible.

Keeping the Catholic Faith in Times of Great Turmoil in the Church

It is a source of great joy for me to celebrate with you the 25^th Anniversary of CREDO of the Catholic Laity.

For that reason, I was always grateful for your apostolate in the Archdiocese of Saint Louis and am grateful to be with you on this most happy occasion.

Viganò’s Advice re: Voting Fraud & Media Censorship

November 7, 2020November 7, 2020

The need to trust in the Lord, especially during this time, was made clear by Abp. Carlo Maria Viganò in a letter he penned to the American people on the evening of the election.

Viganò encouraged Americans to take heart in the midst of “electoral fraud” and “the shameful attempts of the mainstream media to censor the truth of the facts in order to give their candidate the advantage.”
He urged the faithful to place their trust in God — “in this terrible hour.”

“I ask you to make an act of trust in God, an act of humility and filial devotion to the Lord of Armies,” the archbishop implored. Read more “Viganò’s Advice re: Voting Fraud & Media Censorship” →
