What follows is a VITAL warning to heed on behalf of Bp. McKenna O.P. regarding Lefebvrism:
———————————————————————
Beware those who imagine that they can both "have their Pope and eat him too" — who think they can recognize full authority in the Pope and at the same time disobey him — namely for going against the traditional teaching and laws of the Church.
No Pope in his right mind can possibly mislead the Church. If he could, the Church herself would not be our infallible guide and teacher.
No, if a Pope is found to contradict the traditional teaching of the Church, it is rather proof that he is, as we say, out of his mind, spiritually speaking, and therefore unable to exercise his office and to claim any divine authority.
On the supernatural level he is paralyzed and for all practical purposes dead. For to otherwise rebel against or resist one truly Pope is to cut oneself off from the Church by the sin of schism.
Let us then amend our lives before it is too late, for it is already the eleventh hour, and pray the Rosary as never before that God may have mercy on us and restore sanity to the papacy.
In the meantime hold fast to the traditional teaching, worship, and laws of the Holy Catholic Church our Mother. 'He who perseveres to the end,' says Christ, 'will be saved.' Therefore, not otherwise.

"The godlessness of the Jews and the pagans is on a par. But the Jews practice a deceit which is more dangerous. In their synagogue stands an invisible altar of deceit on which they sacrifice not sheep and calves but the souls of men."

This is the Asamkirche in Munich. I was there in 2019 and it really is an experience to be inside!
It's dedicated to St. John Nepomuk, martyr for the Seal of the Confessional, and, despite being a small church, has seven confessionals.

The desire of the wicked shall perish (Ps. cxi. 10). How ardently shall we desire at death the time we now squander away! In his Dialogues, St. Gregory relates that a certain rich man called Crisorius who had led a wicked life, seeing at death the devils come to carry him off, exclaimed: Give me time! Give me time until tomorrow! They replied: O fool! Do you now ask for time? You have had so much time, but you wasted it and spent it in committing sin! And now you seek for time! Time is now no more! The unhappy man continued to cry out and call for assistance. To his son Maximus, a monk, who was present, he said: O my son, assist me! O Maximus, come to my aid! With his face all on fire he flung himself furiously from side to side in his bed, and in that state of agitation and screaming aloud, like one in despair, he breathed forth his unhappy soul.

Today is the Second Feast of St. Agnes, Virgin and Martyr.
"Five days after the martyrdom of the Virgin Emerentiana, the parents of the glorious Saint Agnes visited the tomb of their child, during the night, there to weep and pray. It was the eighth day since her martyrdom. Whilst they were thinking upon the cruel death, which, though it had enriched their child with a Martyr’s palm, had deprived them of her society — Agnes suddenly appeared to them: she was encircled with a bright light, and wore a crown on her head, and was surrounded by a choir of virgins of dazzling beauty. On her right hand, there stood a beautiful white lamb, the emblem of the Divine Spouse of Agnes.
"Turning towards her parents, she said to them: “Weep not over my death: for I am now in heaven, together with these virgins, living with Him, whom I loved on earth with my whole soul.”
('The Liturgical Year' by Dom Prosper Gueranger)
Sancta Agnes, ora pro nobis!
