The National Catholic Register (NCR), organ of the EWTN media empire, published on September 19, 2026, a hagiographic report by Kate Quiñones extolling the “All Are Welcome” ministry in the Diocese of Baton Rouge. The article details how two mothers of autistic children, Jodi Devore and Edda Dupaquier, founded a “support ministry” featuring “sensory-friendly Masses” with lowered lighting, softer music, shorter homilies, and tolerance for children running to the altar, wearing noise-canceling headphones, or clutching dinosaurs during “Communion.” The piece frames this as a triumph of “inclusion” bringing families “back to Mass.” This reportage exposes the conciliar sect’s definitive apostasy: it has replaced the social reign of Christ the King (Quas Primas) with a therapeutic anthropocentrism that makes the liturgy subject to human sensory preferences and the Church a mere vehicle for psychological belonging.
The Anthropocentric Inversion: “All Are Welcome” vs. Extra Ecclesiam Nulla Salus
The very name “All Are Welcome” manifests the heresy of universalism without conversion condemned by Pius IX in the Syllabus of Errors (Prop. 16, 17, 18). The article boasts:
“We didn’t want a ministry beside the Church — we wanted our families to fully belong within the Church… Most importantly, everyone gets Jesus.”
This phrase — “everyone gets Jesus” — reduces the Unbloody Sacrifice of Calvary to a commodity distribution. The true Church teaches that the Eucharist is the Sacrament of the Living, requiring the state of grace, right intention, and submission to the Magisterium. The conciliar sect’s “deacon” Randall Waguespack and its “bishop” of Baton Rouge facilitate a sacrilegious parody where the only prerequisite for the Bread of Angels is physical presence and emotional comfort.
Pius XI in Quas Primas declared: “Peace is only possible in the kingdom of Christ” — a kingdom established by law, by judgment, by authority (potestas legislativa, iudiciaria, executiva). The “All Are Welcome” ideology inverts this: the “kingdom” is now a sensory-safe space where the “subjects” dictate the terms of worship. The article quotes Sarah Taylor:
“A child may wear noise-canceling headphones… flap their hands… stim during the homily, or carry a beloved dinosaur up with them when they receive Communion. These behaviors are not distractions; they are part of how that child experiences and navigates the world.”
This is liturgical subjectivism elevated to dogma. The lex orandi is no longer the lex credendi of the Church but the lex sentienti of the autistic child. The Council of Trent anathematized those who deny the propitiatory nature of the Mass (Sess. XXII, can. 3); the conciliar sect anathematizes those who demand reverence.
The Liturgical Degradation: “Sensory-Friendly Masses” as Profanation
The article describes “sensory-friendly Masses” as “one of the most meaningful parts of our ministry”:
“These Masses feature lower lighting, softer music, and shorter and more literal homilies. Families know they can move around as needed without fear of judgment… Children and adults with disabilities often run to the altar with joy. They aren’t afraid. They aren’t worried about doing something wrong. They’re simply drawn to Christ.”
This is the abomination of desolation foretold: the Holy of Holies turned into a sensory gymnasium. St. Pius X in Lamentabili Sane Exitu condemned the Modernist proposition that “Christ did not always possess the consciousness of His Messianic dignity” (Prop. 35) and that “The Resurrection… is not properly a historical fact” (Prop. 36). Here, the Real Presence is denied in facto by treating the altar as a playground. The “running to the altar” is not piety but irreverence masquerading as innocence. The Roman Rite, codified by St. Pius V in Quo Primum, demands sanctitas, reverentia, decorum. The Novus Ordo Missae, fabricated by the Freemason Bugnini (per the testimony of Abp. Lefebvre, himself compromised by the Masonic Liénart), was designed for precisely this Protestantized, anthropocentric degradation.
The article admits:
“Sometimes the clothes are too itchy. The smell of incense can be overwhelming. The music may be painfully loud. Sitting still for an hour can feel impossible.”
Since when does the King of Kings accommodate His court to the sensory sensitivities of His subjects? Quas Primas teaches: “He received power and honor and a kingdom from the Father… all peoples, tribes, and tongues shall serve him.” The conciliar sect serves the creature, not the Creator. This is the laicism Pius XI denounced: “the denial of Christ the Lord’s reign over all nations… the Church’s authority to teach men, to issue laws, to govern nations… was denied.” Now the “law” is the child’s comfort; the “governance” is the parent’s preference.
The Theological Error: Disability as “Gift” vs. the Cross and Redemption
The article’s theology is pure Pelagian sentimentalism. Edda Dupaquier states:
“These children of ours, they make the ground holy… And they make us better people with more virtues, with more patience, with more understanding — capable of loving in ways that we weren’t sure that we could love.”
Sarah Taylor adds:
“Our differences are not obstacles to God’s love; they are reflections of the beautiful diversity of his creation.”
This is the heresy of the “theology of the body” divorced from the Cross. The true Church teaches that suffering — including the suffering of disability — is a participation in the Passion of Christ (Col 1:24), meritorious when united to the Holy Sacrifice. The conciliar sect sanitizes the Cross into “neurodiversity,” stripping suffering of its redemptive value. Lamentabili Sane Exitu condemned: “The dogmas of faith should be understood according to their practical function, i.e., as binding in action, rather than as principles of belief” (Prop. 26). Here, “inclusion” is the only dogma; the Credo is replaced by “belonging.”
The article cites CDC statistics (1 in 31 children with autism) as justification for liturgical revolution. This is statistical positivism replacing divine law. The Syllabus condemns: “Human reason, without any reference whatsoever to God, is the sole arbiter of truth and falsehood… it is law to itself” (Prop. 3). The “All Are Welcome” ministry makes the CDC the new Magisterium.
False Sacraments, False Communion, False Church
The article celebrates:
“Children have received sacraments… We’ve celebrated children receiving the Eucharist when their parents once thought it might never happen.”
In the conciliar sect, “sacraments” are simulated. The “priests” are ordained in the invalid 1968 rite of Paul VI (Montini), the “bishops” consecrated in the same rite, the “Mass” is a Lutheranized memorial. Cum ex Apostolatus Officio (Paul IV) declares that any heretic elevated to the papacy is ipso facto deprived of office. The line of usurpers from John XXIII (Roncalli) to Leo XIV (Prevost) are manifest heretics — worshippers of religious liberty, ecumenism, and the “cult of man” condemned by Quas Primas and the Syllabus. Therefore, the “Diocese of Baton Rouge” is a paramasonic structure occupying Catholic property. Its “sacraments” are null, void, and of no effect.
The “Deacon Randall Waguespack” is a layman in a costume. The “Communion” received by the child with the dinosaur is idolatry — worshipping a bread that remains bread because the “priest” lacks orders and intention. The article’s joy at “families returning to Mass” is the joy of the prodigal son eating husks with the swine, thinking he has returned to the Father’s house.
The Masonic Blueprint: Inclusion as the New Dogma
The False Fatima Apparitions document exposes the Masonic strategy: “Stage 3 (1958-2000): Takeover of the narrative by modernists, concealment of the Third Secret, ecumenical reinterpretation.” The “All Are Welcome” ministry is the ecumenical reinterpretation of charity. True Catholic charity (caritas) seeks the salus animarum through truth and conversion. The conciliar “inclusion” seeks accommodation without demand for repentance, faith, or obedience.
The article’s rhetoric — “see through the eyes of Christ,” “essential part of the body of Christ” — mimics Christian language while denying its substance. This is the synthesis of all errors (Modernism) condemned by St. Pius X in Pascendi Dominici Gregis: “Truth changes with man, because it develops with him, in him, and through him” (Lamentabili, Prop. 58). The “sensory-friendly Mass” is the liturgical expression of this evolving truth: the liturgy changes with the sensory needs of the congregation.
Conclusion: The Only Remedy is the Integral Faith
The “All Are Welcome” ministry is not a “beautiful diversity” but a diabolical disunity. It gathers the faithful not around the altar of sacrifice but around the altar of self. The families “returning to Mass” are returning to a Masonic counter-church that offers them psychological comfort instead of supernatural grace.
The true remedy for these suffering families is not “lower lighting and softer music” but the Traditional Latin Mass — the Mass of All Time — where the rubrics protect the mystery, where the silence teaches reverence, where the Communion of Saints includes the suffering Church Militant united to the Victorious. It is the social reign of Christ the King over the family, the parish, the nation — not the reign of the “neurodivergent” child over the liturgy.
As Pius XI commanded: “Let rulers of states therefore not refuse public veneration and obedience to the reigning Christ… if they wish to maintain their authority inviolate.” Let parents of disabled children refuse the counterfeit compassion of the conciliar sect and seek the true Church — the Ecclesia Militans — where the Cross is not removed but embraced, where the King reigns from the Cross, and where all are welcome on His terms: “If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me” (Lk 9:23).
