Student Action on GMU: The Church Shall Prevail!

On September 18, members of TFP Student Action visited the campus of George Mason University in Fairfax, Va., to discuss the crisis inside the Catholic Church.

In just a few hours, TFP Student Action members passed out 1600 fliers titled, “In face of the scandals, the Church, Holy and Immortal, Shall Prevail!” While fliers were being eagerly received by some and rudely refused by others, students and faculty alike gathered around TFP Student Action's table to fill out a six-question survey about the scandals.

"The Church is undergoing one of Her worst crisis in history, yet we categorically disagree with pressure groups pushing for reform who blame the hierarchical structure of the Church for the scandals" said John Ritchie, head of TFP Student Action. "We are doing this survey and flier distribution campaign at several universities in the Washington, D.C. area to defend the honor of Holy Mother Church and remind students - especially Catholic students - of Our Lord's promise: the gates of Hell shall not prevail against Her."

This campaign on university campuses is merely one phase of a nationwide effort of the American TFP to oppose the reformist agenda of groups like Voice of the Faithful, Call to Action and others. Their attack on Catholic tradition often includes promoting women's ordination, married clergy, and democratization inside the Church contrary to the Magisterium of the Church.

TFP Student Action is a project of the American Society for the Defense of Tradition, Family, and Property (TFP).
