Dear friends in Christ: Catholics, Eastern Orthodox, and Separated Brethren.
A sinister and subtle persecution is taking place under the guise of "public health". It is the most sinister of persecutions, for these Janus-like politicians and health officials proclaim life and freedom, whilst in reality snatching it away.

Over the past two weeks it emerged that illegal and unconstitutional intimidation was being placed upon Cardinal Collins by the City of Toronto and its public health officials. The Cardinal stated that he was being bullied into obeying the edicts of the public health officials, and that they decided how Holy Communion was to be distributed. We now have the following public statement by Fr. Fanourios of the Greek Orthodox Church, which includes the following:
"...the City of Toronto FORBADE Holy Communion for the area of Toronto and it looks like the PERSECUTION OF THE CHURCH CONTINUES"
Here is the video:
Dear friends: Premier Doug Ford is not known to be an enemy of Christianity. However, he is but a man, a besieged man. He is also a personal friend of Archbishop Sotirios, whose Greek Orthodox Archdiocese received the "order" from the City of Toronto banning Holy Communion.
I will leave it you dear friends, to speculate if ideology and politics of these public health officials and their leftist political masters has anything to do with the attack on the Greek Orthodox Church in Toronto.
The Premier has many powerful enemies: Mayors (led by the detestable John Tory of Toronto), provincial and federal politicians, "deep state" government bureaucrats and officials, the Toronto Media, and the downtown hard-left jet-setting "elite" all virulently opposed to any inclinations that the Premier would naturally have to stop the attacks on liberty and Christian freedom. Doug Ford needs our prayers.

We need to telephone, email, besiege the Premier to intervene and ENFORCE the Law (or, if necessary amend it) to protect religious liberty from the various rogue public health officials and their enabling leftist political masters.

Well said, I will send a note to the Premier. The new mask policy by-law includes churches as well. I thought we didn't need masks if we physical distance? We're being gaslighted on a daily basis.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your support of the Greek Archdiocese.
