Please pray: Le Point reports that two armed men burst into the Catholic Sainte-Etienne-du-Rouvray church in France during Holy Mass this morning. According to Le Point, the pair shouted ''Daesch!'' - thus associating them with ISIS - and then attacked the priest.

Reuters reports that the elderly priest had his throat cut in the attack. Sadly, he has died of his injuries. Update: Sky News and other outlets report that Fr. Jacques Hamel was actually beheaded! Whilst Le Point suggests that one of those worshipping at Holy Mass was also murdered, other sources claim that this poor person is between life and death.

Although there had then been a hostage situation, with religious sisters and laity held captive in the church, it seems that both of these sacrilegious invaders have now been killed by French police.

Fr. Jacques Hamel who was sacrilegiously murdered in church by Islamists this morning. 

Only last night, as I typed up our previous article, I feared that this type of thing would start happening to churches soon. This is the worst form of sacrilege.

And still, the mainstream media continues its hideous fudging operation of claiming that the motives of these killers is unclear. The liberal elites in government, media, education and even the Church, together with the unthinking hordes of so-called liberals, will just not face up to the Islamist threat in our midst. Indeed, this growing pressure on settled populations, and the increasing division among peoples, is itself serving a higher agenda for those seeking to bring chaos and then a new atheistic order from that chaos. 

From a spiritual perspective, the sheer number and extremity of the many violent attacks around the world this month certainly make it seem that many demons have now been unleashed on earth.

We must all stay close to Our Lord Jesus Christ and His Holy Mother. Having rejected Christ, our civilization is unraveling into a real dark age. In practical terms, this means that bishops and parish priests must now consider ways to make their churches secure during liturgies to protect the reverence due to Almighty God, and those worshipping Him, from being harmed by this filth of evil.

May the Precious Blood of Jesus protect us all. Pray the Holy Michael prayer often each day. Have your homes properly blessed by an orthodox priest. Mark your property boundaries with blessed salt and Holy Water. Pray the Rosary every single day.

We must wonder whether all those who quickly identified themselves as ''Je suis Charlie'' will be as quick to join us in announcing ''Je suis Catholic!''
