An Open Letter to Most Rev. Michael Olson, Bishop of Fort Worth
I am a current parent of FMA. When I came across FM College last Summer 2013, I knew my prayers had been answered. I found a solid Catholic College where my children could attend in the near future; not just another Catholic College/University that nowadays a vast majority are anything but.

I am a current parent of FMA. When I came across FM College last Summer 2013, I knew my prayers had been answered. I found a solid Catholic College where my children could attend in the near future; not just another Catholic College/University that nowadays a vast majority are anything but.
One of the things that I felt my heart of joy , was to know that the Tridentine Mass was celebrated at the Campus ! I recently listened to Archbishop Sample from the Aechdiocese of Portland Oregon, talking about the Latin Mass, it's beauty, the reverence, the way it has helped him Celebrate Mass with greater devotion , etc ..... so my question to Your Excellency Bishop Olson, what are you accomplishing by cancelling the Traditional Latin Mass ? With all due respect , you are hurting faithful Catholics who love the Tridentine Mass? It seems that it will hurt the community even more, it will divide the Church even more. I feel a great pain in my heart.
Please your Excellency, do not let anger, pride or what ever seems to be the root of this decision take over your heart. Perhaps the Celebration of the Tridentine Mass at FM College will bring peace , reconciliation as it says on 1 Corinthians 6, as well as unity back.
We are called to LOVE ONE ANOTHER, to forgive, to live in harmony.
I pray with all my heart that Our Lord will change the hearts of Man as he promised us and everything will come to pass. We need to follow HIS COMMANDMENTS, not ours.
In Christ,
Yolanda Marrs

Cardinal plays Samba in Church. Cardinal Maradiaga..who else? The Cardinal who treats Mass vestments …
What a disgrace !! If Jesus would be present I am sure HE will rip the vestments and kick him out of His Father's Temple !!!
