4.22. What are the practical consequences if I decide to become a traditional Catholic?
You may have to:
Leave your local Novus Ordo Vatican II parish since it teaches errors and offers invalid sacraments;
Travel further to attend a valid traditional Mass;
Be misunderstood or opposed, even by family and friends;
Study and learn the true faith yourself, since many clergy and catechisms are compromised;
Embrace suffering and sacrifice for the truth.
But in doing so, you will be preserving the true Catholic faith, receiving valid sacraments, and remaining in communion with the Church of all ages. In this time of apostasy, fidelity may cost you something — but it will gain you everything.
