Please...

"Please, please don't abandon the bride of Christ; that is the Catholic Church. Don't allow the corruptions of human beings – and we're all human beings, we're all sinners – but the church is the mystical body of Christ. Stay with her, grow more holy, grow closer to the sacred heart of Christ. But please, please don't abandon her to the foul sinfulness that is overtaking the world and, sadly, the church as well. Please stay with her."

Bishop Joseph Strickland
