WARNING! WARNING! WARNING!
THE FOLLOWING ARTICLE HAS VERY DISTURBING INFORMATION AND WORDING THAT SOME WILL PROBABLY FIND OFFENSIVE AND DOWNRIGHT DISGUSTING!
But such are the goings on in the novus ordo, synodal church...
(Those are my air quotes around the word "priest" in the headline.
Can you guess why?)
I ask the question again: who do these people (homosexuals) think their kidding?
They don't even try to hide these massive scandals! It's like they know that nothing will happen to them -- at least not in this life!
Where is Rome?
Where is the pope?
Yet these are the same phonies that cancel the Mass of the Ages (the TLM) and relegate one single TLM Mass somewhere out in the boonies, where faithful folks have to travel a zillion miles, many with large families in tow.
So where is the justice in all of this?
There is none.
But when faithful professors try to point out the scandal and confusion and adhere to Church teaching, they get kicked out of the seminaries and lose their jobs...
Again, where is the justice in all of this?
So, a known pervert wearing the Roman collar, has his cake and gets to eat it too by getting a cushy job in close proximity to the young and impressionable, not to mention those young men seeking to become priests of Our Lord, the faithful are rightly up-in-arms!
The following article is from lifesitenews.com and written by Louis
A few days later, he posted a link to the History Channel’s description of the history of the LGBT movement’s rainbow flag.
On January 26, 2021, Rosera posted an article from America Magazine on the bishops who signed the Tyler Clemente statement – of which Abp. Wester was one. Again, this would have been just after Rosera was reinstated as a priest in the Archdiocese of Santa Fe.
On July 1, 2020, Rosera shared Governor Michelle Grisham’s “Happy Pride” message.
On November 2, 2019, Rosera was quoted by New Ways Ministry in an article elevating sexual deviants and their supporters to the level of “sainthood.” Speaking on the homosexual activist Harvey Milk, Rosera was quoted thusly:
“More than anyone I can think of, Harvey Milk inspired millions of people who were made to feel that their lives only mattered as long as they kept their true selves in a box. He gave to generations of LGBTQ+ the realization that they mattered as much as anyone else… he gave them hope.” — Steve Rosera, Albuquerque, New Mexico.
On June 25, 2016, Rosera posted a “Happy Pride” message along with a picture of the rainbow flag and the pink triangle.
Rosera’s current priestly status and background
In addition to his role as pastor of Immaculate Conception, Rosera also oversees St. Mary’s Catholic School, a diocesan K-8 school. This is particularly alarming considering none of his past activities as an LGBT activist nor his time as a registered “domestic partner” in a homosexual relationship is indicated anywhere for parents to discern.
But worse still is the fact that Abp. Wester named Fr. Rosera as the dean of the Albuquerque “C” deanery of priests, which spans 13 parishes within the Santa Fe Archdiocese.
Both the Diocese of Toledo and the Diocese of Cleveland provide articles explaining what a deanery is. While particulars may be different (such as who appoints a dean – in Toledo, a dean is elected from among the priests, whereas in Cleveland, the dean is appointed by the bishop) may be different, the general idea is basically the same. Pulling from both articles, the notion of a dean and a deanery are as follows:
A Deanery is a geographic area comprising Catholic parishes and institutions, overseen by a diocesan priest – who represents the bishop – with the title Dean. Deans may either be elected by their brother priests or appointed by the local ordinary, but the role of the dean is to support the clergy of the deanery, oversee the pastoral life of the parishes, coordinate pastoral planning, and advance those plans.
In essence, a dean acts – in a manner of speaking – as a little “b” bishop, with some authority to act on the bishop’s behalf. That Fr. Rosera was appointed by Abp. Wester as a dean within the archdiocese – despite knowing his history of debauchery – speaks very poorly to the archbishop’s judgment and sense of responsibility.
And perhaps worst of all, as if to knowingly and openly mock the sacrament of marriage itself, Abp. Wester has appointed Rosera to the diocesan marriage tribunal as a judge and defender of the bond, canonical roles within the Church’s court tasked with examining, arguing for, or judging the validity of marriages that have been submitted to the bishop for an annulment. According to the Church’s Canon Law, Rosera’s debauched history would bar him from all exercise of priestly functions, let alone judging the validity of Holy Sacraments.
Canonical penalties
A priest entering into a formally recorded homosexual relationship constitutes an extremely grave violation of both the Sixth Commandment and the priestly promise of celibacy. As such, it carries serious canonical penalties.
An attempted marriage with a woman by a priest under the promise of celibacy is invalid and subject to canonical penalty. An open homosexual relationship which simulates a marriage is a violation of the very nature of marriage itself, and is a more serious violation of celibacy because homosexual acts are sins against nature itself.
Canon 1394 of the Church’s Code of Canon Law states that
… a cleric who attempts marriage, even if only civilly, incurs a latae sententiae suspension. If he does not repent after being warned and continues to give scandal, he can be punished gradually by privations or even by dismissal from the clerical state.
Priests who are suspended by an ecclesiastical law cannot publicly exercise any priestly function. No latae sententiae suspension has been publicly declared by any bishop against Rosera, nor has any latae sententiae suspension been publicly lifted, as far as the Lepanto Institute is aware.
Instead of publicly incurring suspension from priestly ministry, Rosera has been reinstated in ministry by Archbishop Wester and has been place over a parish, grade school, deanery of priests, and the diocesan marriage tribunal.
A shared residence with pro-LGBT Archbishop Wester
Not only does Rosera enjoy prominence within the Archdiocese of Santa Fe, but he also shares a residence with Archbishop Wester – himself outspokenly pro-LGBT – raising even further questions.
Clergy of the Archdiocese of Santa Fe have confirmed directly to Lepanto, as eyewitnesses, that Archbishop Wester and Fr. Rosera both live in the former Jesuit residence at Immaculate Conception Parish in Albuquerque, New Mexico, where Rosera is appointed as pastor. While the archbishop often celebrates Mass at the cathedral in Santa Fe on weekends, he lives during the week at the former Jesuit residence at Immaculate Conception.
The same clergy, who spoke on condition of anonymity for fear of retribution, also affirmed that Rosera’s previous homosexual relationship during his leave of absence is widely known among the older priests of the archdiocese and that the archbishop certainly knows of it.
According to the testimony of fellow clergy, Rosera never loses an opportunity to “include” and “promote” homosexuals within the local church. Local clergy have told Lepanto that Rosera has a “soft spot” for homosexuals.
Laity, who have also requested anonymity, have also expressed to Lepanto their dismay at the scandal of a priest who lived in a simulated homosexual “marriage,” now sitting as judge on the marriage tribunal for the archdiocese. The duplicity of the situation, they said, is cause for great alarm especially among Catholic parents.
Archbishop Wester has himself promoted same-sex “marriage”, publicly stating he sees no objection to baptizing children of same-sex “couples” and arguing in favor of blessing same-sex “couples” following the Vatican’s promulgation of Fiducia supplicans. Wester is also the episcopal moderator for the heretical Association of U.S. Catholic Priests (AUSCP), infamous for promoting women’s ordination to the priesthood and LGBT ideology within the Church.
While bishop of Salt Lake City, Utah, Abp. Wester elevated a woman who had received contributions from Planned Parenthood for a political campaign. The woman had also advocated for LGBT ideology and contraception as part of her campaign against Catholic moral teaching.
Wester has also defended programs conducted by Catholic Relief Services (CRS), which openly promote masturbation as a form of safe sex. He has likewise defended the Catholic Campaign for Human Development (CCHD), which receives large grants from the U.S. Bishops’ Conference, despite decades of public evidence that the CCHD finances many pro-abortion, pro-LGBT, and Marxist organizations in the amount of hundreds of thousands of dollars drawn from the Catholic faithful.
Wester’s reinstatement and elevation of Rosera, despite his having entered a same sex “domestic partnership” and his long public advocacy for LGBT ideology, in contradiction to both Church teaching and Canon Law, appears to be yet another lavender-mafia promotion of homosexuals within the ranks of the clergy.
Lay faithful have stated to Lepanto that they perceive Wester’s appointment of Rosera to the marriage tribunal as a perverse mockery of the sanctity of marriage, and clergy have said they understand his elevation as dean of priests to be a signal to the presbyterate of the price of promotion under their current archbishop.
The Papal Nuncio to the U.S., Cardinal Christophe Pierre, has been made aware of Rosera’s same sex relationship and his current privileged status in Sant Fe.
The Lepanto Institute has reached out by email to both Archbishop Wester and Fr. Rosera with direct questions on the scandal of the situation but received no reply before press time. This report will be updated should either respond."
