(LifeSiteNews) — Dear friends,
I am very concerned at how this campaign is shaping up – and it’s getting close to the end.
And with just two days left, we have only raised 54 percent of our target for this quarter.
Will you help us get over the line today – before we have to cut back our work?
If everyone reading this gave just $25, we would be home and dry.
If we do not reach our target by the end of the week, our ability to fight for faith and freedom could be seriously restricted.
This is exactly what the enemies of the Church want.
Just last week, Leo XIV promoted Bishop Pedro Luis Fuentes Valencia, C.P., putting him in charge of the military ordinariate of Bolivia.
In 2023, Valencia spoke to the bishops of Bolivia about the importance of “losing fear” and “having the courage to make a different Church.”
According to him, active homosexuals and the divorced and “remarried” being admitted to Holy Communion “remains under debate and the topic remains open.”
And female deacons “remain under discussion” too.
Well, that might be the case in the “different Church” he wants to build. But I don’t want to be a part of this “different Church” – and neither should you. I want to be a member of the Catholic Church.
Any “different Church” or “synodal church” they build will be an “Ape of the Church,” as Blessed Fulton Sheen put it many decades ago.
And that is why LifeSiteNews is so important.
When COVID-19 hit in 2020, LifeSiteNews was one of the few media outlets that questioned the narrative from the beginning.
LifeSiteNews became the international home of real journalism.
We were condemned for questioning vaccine narratives and for putting Catholic moral doctrine first on COVID issues. Social media companies blacklisted our reporting to stop the truth getting out. But years later, warnings that were dismissed as “misinformation” have been vindicated. We are seeing the same thing with the Church:
- Formerly strong defenders of the faith falling away, or standing down from the fight;
- FBI investigations into “radical traditionalist Catholics”;
- Politicians like Ted Cruz calling Catholics “parasites” for holding to orthodox doctrine.
Day by day the enemies of God are at work – and the destruction of the Church, our nations, and our families is their goal.
LifeSiteNews is the front line of defense. But we can only stand strong if we have the resources to fund our fight. This is why we absolutely must meet our Fall Campaign target within the next two days.
Donations of $25 and $50 and $100 are the foundation of our work. Gifts of this size fund almost all everything we do.
If everyone reading this gave just $25, we would meet our goal by midnight.
I understand that not everyone will be in a financial position to give at this time. That’s why larger gifts of $500 and $1,000 or even $10,000 are so deeply appreciated. They will help us quickly make up the shortfall of this campaign.
Every gift, no matter the size, will help us raise the $750,000 we need to keep LifeSiteNews online for the next quarter. And every gift plays a crucial, irreplaceable role in our defense of life, faith, family, and freedom.
Without your support, there will be nobody standing in the way of the “different church” – and our children will be the victims.
Thank you for your incredible support.
Yours in the Sacred Heart of Christ the King,
John-Henry Westen

PPS: I am very concerned at how far behind we are in this campaign.
If LifeSiteNews does not meet this fall target, then I’m afraid we will need to tighten our operations.
The “different,” “synodal,” “Ape of the Church” will then be able rise up without any serious pushback.
Will your children or grandchildren receive their First Holy Communion from the hands of a homosexual priest… or even a female minister?
LifeSiteNews is one of the few organizations left which is fighting for you and your families.
If everyone reading this gave a donation of just $25, we would meet our goal by midnight.
