The EWTN News portal reports that the Diocese of Chiclayo, under the authority of the conciliar “bishop” Edinson Farfán Córdova, has announced the initiation of a beatification cause for Monsignor Juan Tomis Stack, an American priest who spent decades in Peru as a product of the Second Vatican Council’s missionary impulse. The article highlights that the current usurper on the Chair of Peter, “Pope” Leo XIV (Robert Prevost), has repeatedly cited Tomis as a primary inspiration for his own vocation. The narrative presented is one of humanitarian activism—road building, clinics, scout troops, and “parish family” social engineering—all framed as the Gospel in action. This beatification spectacle exposes the conciliar sect’s definitive substitution of the supernatural mission of the Church for a naturalistic NGO model of philanthropy, validated by a false pope and a false council.
The Invalidity of the Conciliar “Beatification” Process
The very announcement of a “cause for beatification and canonization” by the Diocese of Chiclayo is a canonical nullity. The Syllabus of Errors of Pope Pius IX condemns the proposition that “The Church is not a true and perfect society, entirely free… but it appertains to the civil power to define what are the rights of the Church” (Error 19). By extension, a sect that has usurped the visible structures of the Church—lacking a true Pope, true bishops with jurisdiction, and the true Faith—possesses no authority whatsoever to bind the faithful in matters of cultus or sanctity. The 1917 Code of Canon Law, the last legitimate canonical legislation, reserves the judgment of sanctity to the Supreme Pontiff acting in communion with the Church’s infallible Magisterium. Since the See of Peter has been vacant since the death of Pius XII in 1958—occupied only by manifest heretics who have ipso facto severed themselves from the Mystical Body (St. Robert Bellarmine, De Romano Pontifice, Bk. 2, Ch. 30)—any “beatification” or “canonization” enacted by the conciliar hierarchy is a simulacrum of holiness, a theatrical production devoid of juridical and theological reality. It is not merely “irregular”; it is non-existent in the eyes of God and the Church.
Antipope Leo XIV: The False Shepherd Validating the Hireling
The article boasts that “Pope Leo XIV has referenced the Bridgeport, Connecticut, native as a major inspiration for his own vocation.” This is the blind leading the blind into the pit (Matt. 15:14). Robert Prevost, as “Leo XIV,” is a public adherent of the Second Vatican Council, the Novus Ordo Missae, religious liberty, ecumenism, and collegiality—all condemned by the perennial Magisterium as heretical or proximate to heresy. By the Bull Cum ex Apostolatus Officio of Pope Paul IV, a heretic elevated to the papacy receives a promotion that is “null, void, and of no effect.” A manifest heretic cannot be the Head of the Church because he is not a member of the Church (Bellarmine, op. cit.: “A non-Christian in no way can be Pope… a manifest heretic is not a Christian”). Therefore, the “inspiration” of the antipope for this missionary is the inspiration of a usurper for a functionary of the counter-church. It seals the subject’s identity not as a Catholic saint, but as a pillar of the “Church of the New Advent,” the paramasonic structure occupying the Vatican.
The Second Vatican Council: The Poisoned Root of the “Mission”
The article explicitly states that “Bridgeport Bishop Walter Curtis, inspired by the Second Vatican Council, decided to send missionary priests to Latin America.” Here lies the causa formalis of the entire enterprise. The Second Vatican Council was not a true ecumenical council; it was a robber synod that promulgated heresies condemned by the Syllabus of Pius IX and the encyclicals of St. Pius X (Pascendi Dominici Gregis, Lamentabili Sane Exitu). Its decree Ad Gentes redefined “mission” not as the plantatio Ecclesiae for the salvation of souls through the Unbloody Sacrifice of Calvary and the Sacraments, but as “dialogue,” “inculturation,” and human development. The “missionary” Tomis Stack was formed in this crucible of Modernism. His “yes” was not to the Great Commission (“Going therefore, teach ye all nations; baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost,” Matt. 28:19), but to the conciliar revolution. The fruit proves the tree: a “mission” focused on roads, clinics, scout troops, and “Useful Vacations” programs is the Corporal Works of Mercy severed from the Spiritual Works and the Supernatural End—pure Masonic philanthropy masquerading as Catholicism.
John Paul II: The Heretic “Monsignor-Maker”
The article notes with pride: “In 1979, Pope John Paul II bestowed upon him the title of monsignor.” Karol Wojtyła (John Paul II) was a public heretic who taught religious liberty (Dignitatis Humanae), practiced false ecumenism (Assisi 1986), kissed the Quran, and denied the necessity of the Church for salvation (Redemptoris Missio §10). By the principle quisquis polluitur, polluit (whoever is defiled, defiles), an honor conferred by an antipope is a mark of infamy, not dignity. It signifies alignment with the abomination of desolation standing in the holy place (Matt. 24:15). The title “Monsignor” from the hand of Wojtyła is the livery of the neo-church, distinguishing its officials from the true clergy of the Catacombs who keep the Faith entire.
Reduction of the Priesthood to Social Work: The “Parish Family” Heresy
The researcher Larcery Díaz is quoted: “He did not want just an institution, but a ‘parish family.’ His tools were active charity and human kindness.” This sentence crystallizes the theological bankruptcy of the conciliar “priesthood.” The Catholic priest is alter Christus, constituted for the Propitiatory Sacrifice and the absolution of sins (sacerdos in aeternum secundum ordinem Melchisedech). His “tools” are the Sacraments, the Latin Liturgy, the Roman Breviary, the preaching of Dogma, the condemnation of error. “Active charity and human kindness” are the tools of the Red Cross, the Rotary Club, and the Freemason. The article details “medical clinics, libraries, religious song festivals, televised Masses”—a litany of naturalistic activism. There is no mention of the Traditional Latin Mass, the conversion of infidels, the combat against sin, the Four Last Things, or the Social Kingship of Christ (Pius XI, Quas Primas: “His reign encompasses also all non-Christians… The state is happy not by one means, and man by another”). This silence is the gravest accusation. It proves the “missionary” operated entirely within the ordo naturalis, building a comfortable city of man while ignoring the City of God.
The “Miracle of the Sun” Redux: Popular Acclamation as Canonization
The article dwells on the funeral: “a crowd of some 20,000 people… one of the largest outpourings of affection the city has ever seen… thousands upon thousands of white handkerchiefs fluttering in the wind.” This is the vox populi manipulated as vox Dei, a tactic identical to the Fatima spectacle analyzed in the theological objections: “mass panic and autosuggestion” substituting for the sanctitas heroica verified by the Church’s infallible authority. The conciliar sect, having abandoned the rigorous processes of the 1917 Code (which required proof of heroic virtue and miracles post mortem under strict scrutiny), now relies on media campaigns, book launches (“Bridgeport to Peru”), and emotional populism to manufacture “saints.” This is the canonization by acclamation of the early Church perverted: not the spontaneous recognition of martyrs by the faithful under persecution, but the orchestrated sentimentality of a neo-pagan populace fed on a diet of humanitarianism and deprived of the true Faith.
EWTN/ACI Prensa: The Propaganda Arm of the Counter-Church
The source, EWTN News / ACI Prensa, is the official mouthpiece of the conciliar establishment. Its reporting style—bureaucratic, celebratory, devoid of any supernatural vocabulary (“state of grace,” “salvation of souls,” “Hell,” “Judgment”)—is the linguistic signature of Modernism. The article reads like an NGO annual report: “spearheaded road construction,” “fostered priestly vocations” (vocations to what? The Novus Ordo presbyterate, invalid in form and intent?), “recover Church property.” The translation of the book for the “centennial of the birth” is a hagiographic whitewash commissioned by the “Friends of Father Juan Tomis group” to prep the narrative for the fake beatification. This is not journalism; it is liturgical propaganda for the paramasonic sect.
Conclusion: The Abomination of Desolation in Chiclayo
The “beatification” of Juan Tomis Stack is a sacrilegious farce. It canonizes the Conciliar Revolution itself: a “priest” formed by Vatican II, honored by John Paul II, praised by Leo XIV, whose “apostolate” was the construction of a humanitarian citadel indifferent to the Social Reign of Christ the King. As Pius XI taught in Quas Primas: “When God and Jesus Christ were removed from laws and states… the foundations of that authority were destroyed.” Tomis Stack built roads and clinics in a Peru where the Kingship of Christ was denied by the very hierarchy he served. He is not a saint; he is a symbol of the Great Apostasy. The true Church, the Ecclesia militans in the catacombs, rejects this idol. Non est hic Deus noster (This is not our God). The only “cause” needed is the restoration of the Catholic Priesthood, the Latin Mass, and the Papacy—everything this spectacle denies.
