"Fatima Priest" is the amazing story of the life and apostolate of Father Nicholas Gruner, the Canadian priest who has devoted hos priesthood to keeping alive the Message of Our Lady of Fatima. If the warning in that Message were silenced though-out the Church, you and your family would be in grave danger. From Canada to Fatima, to India, to Mexico, then to the inner workings of the Vatican bureaucracy in its pursuit of Ostpolitik, "Fatima Priest" is a global adventure more exciting than fiction. The stakes in this adventure are enormous: nothing less that the survival of our civilization. As Our Lady said at Fatima: "If my requests are not granted ... various nations will be annihilated."

EWTN: A Network Gone Wrong

On June 26, 2000 the Vatican published the enigmatic vision of "the Bishop dressed in white" and claimed it was the entirety of the Third Secret of Fatima. Since then, a growing number of Catholics have become convinced that something is missing. What is missing are the words of the Virgin Mary which would explain how the Pope in the vision comes to be executed by soldiers outside a ruined city filled with corpses. In this book, attorney and Catholic commentator Christopher A. Ferrara conducts a meticulous examination of a mass of evidence--including many recent admissions, inadvertent disclosures, inconsistencies and sudden about-faces on the part of the Vatican Secretary of State, Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone--to arrive at the inescapable conclusion that a text of the Virgin's words in the Third Secret has yet to be revealed. 
 This book is the first full-length examination of the grounds for rejecting Cardinal Bertone's version of the facts in the Third Secret controversy. The Cardinal's own statements, including his book and radio and television broadcasts in 2007, are shown to demonstrate beyond any doubt that a text of the Secret has been suppressed, evidently under an unjustifiable mental reservation that the text is not "authentic."
 Among other things, the evidence presented here demonstrates that-- The Secret has two parts, as Pope Pius XII's own investigator revealed, one of which contains words of the Virgin that are not found in the published vision. There are two different Third Secret envelopes, each bearing its own warning, in Sister Lucia's handwriting, that by "express order of Our Lady" the envelope is not to be opened before 1960. There are two different locations for these envelopes: the Holy Office archives for one, the papal apartment for the other. A text of the Secret was inside an outer envelope bearing dictation by Pope John XXIII and kept in the papal apartment--an envelope the Secretary of State has never produced even though he now concedes that the envelope exists. There are two different Third Secret translations in Italian, neither of which has been made public by the Vatican. Three different Popes since 1959 read texts of the Secret on two different dates--years apart--even though the Vatican's official explanation claims there was only a single reading by each Pope.
 And yet the Catholic faithful are still being asked to believe that there is only one text of the Third Secret, and that the Virgin had nothing to say about the meaning of the ominous vision she herself confided to the Fatima seers. Whoever still believes this will have no good reason to continue believing it after reading this book. And, given the absolute urgency of the Secret for every inhabitant of the planet, the case presented here should motivate Catholics and non-Catholics alike to demand that the Vatican reveal the hidden words of the Virgin to the whole world---before it is too late.

The Secret Still Hidden

From the Amazon description of the book: "Fatima must be our first Priority. Embracing the Whole prophetic truth of Fatima will make you free and save your life and your soul. Fatima is about the truth, Our Lady came to Fatima to put an end to satan's empire."

The Great Façade: The Regime of Novelty in the Catholic Church from Vatican II to the Francis Revolu

In this second edition of The Great Façade, co-author Christopher A. Ferrara brings the original work up to date with six new chapters addressing what Bishop Athanasius Schneider has called “the fourth great crisis” in the history of the Catholic Church. The additional chapters chronicle the attempts at ecclesial restoration by Benedict XVI and the “Francis revolution” following Benedict’s mysterious resignation--including Francis’s tumultuous Synod on the Family and his radical reform of the process for determining matrimonial nullity, leading to what some call “Catholic divorce” and a threat of schism on the magnitude of the Lutheran revolt of the 16th century. This new look at the 50 years following the Second Vatican Council is sure to provoke discussion and debate among Catholics concerned about the state of their Church.
 “There is no doubt in my mind that The Great Façade has been prophetic in the broader scriptural sense of the term. Its authors saw that Catholicism was under obvious assault, that the consequences of its rout would be dreadful, and that their failure to take up arms against a sea of enemies would be a punishable dereliction of duty. Those new to the crisis in the Church as well as old soldiers seeking to recharge intellectual batteries can make use of the book’s succinct outline of the modernist positions in matters of faith and morality that so swiftly rode to dominance on the back of the Second Vatican Council.”--JOHN RAO, author of Black Legends and the Light of the World
 “One of the most important books of the post-conciliar era, The Great Façade has earned the right to share the top shelf with such masterworks as the trilogy of Michael Davies, Romano Amerio’s Iota Unum and von Hildebrand’s The Devastated Vineyard. As the original publisher of this magnum opus, I am delighted that Angelico Press has brought out a new edition in which Mr. Ferrara provides six additional chapters documenting the rapid advances of ‘the regime of novelty’ following what he calls The Benedictine Respite. With its almost literally up-to-the-minute analysis of ‘the Francis Revolution,’ this work is now more important than ever.”--MICHAEL MATT, Editor, The Remnant
 “The second edition of The Great Facade tells the story of the crumbling veneer obscuring the glorious Catholic Church, updated to the very eve of its publication. This book is a necessity for anyone who senses the failure of the attempts of neo-Catholics to cover over the cracks in this crumbling edifice of post-conciliar innovation. As always, Chris Ferrara narrates his case against the viruses of novelty and their neo-Catholic apologists with painstaking documentation and a lively and witty style.”--BRIAN M. MCCALL, author of To Build the City of God
 “God is the Most Real Being. In contrast, the note of today’s Church often seems unreality--happy talk, avoiding issues, one-sided rhetoric masking self-contradiction and dubious projects. For a while it seemed that repeated disaster might be bringing back a certain sobriety, but no such luck. In such a setting, The Great Facade is more necessary than ever as a spirited brief against the fantasies of recent decades, and an appeal to Catholics and the Church to return to what they have been, in order to become what they most truly are.”--JAMES KALB, author of Against Inclusiveness
 “This long awaited second edition documents the ‘regime of novelty’ up to the present moment. It contains the most comprehensive analysis of Pope Francis’s tumultuous pontificate to date.”--JOHN VENNARI, Editor, Catholic Family News
 “[S]uperb--best analysis of the present, parlous state of the Church I have read.... A marvel of clear, careful argument, and utterly persuasive.”--JEFFREY RUBIN, convert and former editor of The Conservative Book Club
