Dear SOC Members and Supporters,
It has been some time since our last Bulletin and some of you have certainly been wondering
what has been happening. Besides the needed break that Christmas should have given us all, I
have been spending a great deal of time finishing up work on several major writing projects
relating to the subject of "so called 'private revelation' " and the epic making revelations given to
Maria Valtorta in the 1940's. Though it has become clear to me that these projects are related
to what we in SOC have been called to accomplish I feel the more important reason for this time
has been for me (and hopefully for you also) to reflect on our work so far and to evaluate what
we have done and also what we need yet to do; to reflect on what we have learned and what
we have need of learning.
What has been accomplished so far has to me been something quite incredible for such a small
group. I can only thank from the bottom of my heart those of you who have been so faithful and
willing to become visible witnesses to your faith and others who have given in so many other
necessary ways that what has been to this point done in darkness has now been brought into
the light. God called, you responded and now He continues to work from the labors you
offered! The website is only one aspect of this continuing work. Lights, both big and small have
been lit in hundreds of hearts and minds. I certainly have felt like a beginner in all this with so
much to learn, but I have learned God is in no hurry. He has it all planned out both for each of
our lives and in relation to our effort in Save Our Church.
The Beginner Stage One in our work, however, I believe is now over. God is calling us to the
next level of duty and responsibility. What I am seeing is that saving our Church must involve
far more than exposing the errors of the growing dissention in the Church. No renewal ever
took place in the Church by merely exposing the errors of dissenters. Renewal takes place
when God's people honestly and humbly look first at themselves, their motives, their attitudes,
their own faults and sins knowing these have contributed to the disintegration of faith in the
Church and the dissent. Only then will we be able to see clearly enough to separate the faults
from the good in others or in their efforts. And do you think we will have any credibility or have
any hope to win the hearts of the dissenters if we do not as strongly oppose the errors and sins
in the Church which the dissenters see as giving legitimacy to their cause? And do you think we
will have heaven's blessing if we think we can do this job without using the help it has already
given us for this work?
As of today, January 23, 2004, we have a new Save Our Church, a SOC with a broader focus,
and one that will be a bit more demanding. We will be using different tools. Tools that will help
us rebuild and strengthen our own faith and to span and heal fractures and chasms of
misunderstanding and needless division among Catholics themselves. Powerful tools! Tools
not at all of our own making but tools Heaven itself has given us. Tools with which we must
now become familiar and learn how to use! This is a new battle, a battle first with our own egos
and then for the reconciliation and reclamation of souls. We do not need numbers, we need
focus, faith and dedication!
Important Matters!
The center of our effort must now be a monthly meeting on some select
Saturday of every month where we meet first for prayer and spiritual renewal. We
therefore, need volunteer host homes in the SW, S, and SE areas from Cleveland. Please
contact me immediately if you wish to offer your home. Also, any of you planning to have an
active part in the New SOC please let me know if there are any Saturdays (1st, 2nd, 3rd, or 4th)
that you could not regularly meet. Our first meeting should be in next month and
as soon as possible!
Please spend time to familiarize yourselves with our website! We have
added important changes to our Home Page and our Mission Statement. Deb N. who is our
website operator has reformatted the site and has added for us a powerful 10 page article by the
noted author Donna Steichen called "Building goddess Paganism." Steichen did a masterful
job. She covered FutureChurch, and this Diocese from information obtained from SOC. Please
make use of this material. Two other very important write-ups will soon be added, one dealing
with the fiasco at the Fatima Shrine called, "Catholic Ecumenism or Ecumenical
Deception?" and the other dealing with the serious errors held by many traditionalist
Catholics that have fueled the liberal rebellion: "The Church is of God, it is NOT
GOD!" Because these are so important I am also attaching these to this E-Mail so you will
be able to read them before they go on the website. These write-ups summarize the increasing
burning passion that has been increasing in me for these last several months. Soon we will
have a "Bookstore Catalog" and access to it from the Home Page which will offer some real
Super Tools for decimating the errors that are tearing the Church apart from both right and left
and for building authentic Catholic faith!
There is great need of prayer for the help, wisdom and undeserved protection of
Heaven. Some of you who are seasoned in this discipline and have helped us in the
past please know you are greatly needed at this time. Pray that we might have hearts always
filled with God's love. Every single problem among mankind and within the Church stems from
simple lack of Holy and Divine love in our hearts. That Love tested and revealed in the face
of increasing opposition will guarantee the spoiling of Satan's camp and the reclaiming of the
soul's he has imprisoned and ultimate victory. May God Grant us all His wisdom in this New
Year!
In the United Hearts of Jesus and Mary,
Dave Webster
Finally, If you have a Bible, Prayer book or any other treasured book that needs rebinding or
restoring please consider sending it to me. This is something I have done for over 20 years
and not only enjoy doing it but it has been an important source of income for us. Soon you will
have access to the "Custom Book and Bible Repair" Order Form from our Home page on
our web site. You will be able to print out the form and send it with your book or
Bible. Thanks! and God Bless!
