Pictures of Fr. Hewko's Ordination gratefully 'borrowed' from HERE:
Rev. Fr. David Hewko was ordained on April 21, 1992 in St. Mary’s, Kansas, USA by Bishop Richard Williamson.
(Society St. Pius X, founded by Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre)
Deo Gratias!
"So let us be confident, let us not be unprepared, let us not be outflanked, let us be wise, vigilant, fighting against those who are trying to tear the faith out of our souls and morality out of our hearts, so that we may remain Catholics, remain united to the Blessed Virgin Mary, remain united to the Roman Catholic Church, remain faithful children of the Church."- Abp. Lefebvre

God knew what He was doing when He called Fr. Hewko to become a priest
!
God has blessed us with a
non-compromising priest and one who still
truly holds the line of Archbishop Lefebvre.
Thanks be to God and to Our Lady+

Today, April 21 is also the feast of St. Anselm, Confessor and Doctor of the Church.
The readings for this Mass fit well with Fr. Hewko.
Epistle: 2 Timothy 4, 1-8 [...]Preach the word: be instant in season, out of season: reprove, entreat, rebuke in all patience, and doctrine. For there shall be a time, when they will not endure sound doctrine; but according to their own desires they will heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears, and will indeed turn away their hearing from truth, but will be turned into fables. But be thou vigilant, labor in all things, do the work of an evangelist, fulfil thy ministry. [...]
Gospel: Matthew 5, 13-19 [...] You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt lose its savior, wherewith shall it be salted? It is good for nothing any more, but to be cast out, and to be trodden on by men. You are the light of the world. A city seated on a mountain can not be hid. Neither do men light a candle and put it under a bushel, but upon a candlestick, that it may shine to all that are in the house; so let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father Who is in heaven.[...]
Communion: Luke 12, 42 A faithful and wise steward, whom the Lord set over His family; to give them their measure of wheat in due season.
+Thank you Father Hewko+
