The diocesan leadership finally ignored the smear campaign and kept Father Altman where he belongs. Those radical agitators failed to break our parish and we should stay alert to ensure they never try this filth again.

Your Excellency,

It has come to our attention that a “Christian” group wishes you to remove Fr. Altman from St. James the Less parish. This group is led by an Episcopalian Pastor, who was trained by Barack Obama’s Organizing America and M+R Strategic Services (this organization is a consultant for Planned Parenthood, GLAAD and Pro-Choice America), currently resides in New England and describes himself as a “Progressive Organizer.” From his biography, it appears his progressive “religious” ideologies are incompatible with the 5 Non-Negotiables of the Catholic Church. Thus, it seems this attempt at a smear campaign to remove a good and holy Catholic Priest who teaches the 2000 years of unchanged and unchangeable Truth of the Catholic Church is really a disguised effort to undermine Holy Mother Church’s authority and teachings.

We are incensed at their interference in diocesan affairs and their presumption that they have the right to tell our beloved Bishop what to do. This group and the media have made libelous statements that defame not only Fr. Altman’s character, but also that of the Diocese of La Crosse. The amount of people present at Mass has been sorely misrepresented. St. James has many large, young families, some of which have up to 9 children. The media has taken random snapshots of the community culture within the parish without any actual knowledge of the facts in an attempt to create a story where one does not exist.

It is shameful and sinful that they would bear false witness against Fr. Altman in this manner.

We entreat you to support Fr. Altman and to support us by telling them to mind their own business.

Asking Your Excellency’s blessing, we are, Yours Respectfully,

These progressive agitators think they can bully our Bishop into submission with their outside interference. We refuse to let these outsiders dismantle our parish while they hide behind their radical agendas. Keep the pressure on because the Diocese needs to know we are not backing down.

These outside agitators think they can bully our Bishop into silence but we are about to hit ten thousand signatures to prove them wrong. Do not let this momentum die now because these progressive operatives are watching our numbers closely. Drag your friends into this fight right this second so we can hit that threshold and force them to pay attention.

These outside agitators think they can bully our Bishop into submission but they are dead wrong. We are about to hit our first major milestone so push this out to everyone you know immediately to show them we are not backing down.

As someone once said, “When truth is replaced by silence, the silence becomes a lie.” It is more truth we need, do not allow Fr. Altman to be silenced. Do not allow the howling wolves to separate the Shepard from his flock. Lord, hear my prayers.

A good priest who speaks the truth. Why would you want to silence him? There are not that many shepherds that will do the job Fr. Altman so bravely does at all costs. Please look at the big picture of where we are heading when everyone is afraid.

Your Excellency, Please hear our plea. Father Altman has been very instrumental for our family coming back to the church. Please keep our shepherd and let him continue feeding us with the truth. The truth keeps our faith alive. Thank you very much.

Fr. Altman is a true Sheppard. His homilies correlate the gospel to what is happening in today’s world. We need his teachings and guidance to remain alert and in hope and faith and courage for what lay ahead. We need more priest like him not cowards

Father Altman is a holy and zealous priest who speaks the truth in a confused world. Silencing him would put yet another nail in the coffin of Catholicism and the Catholics who truly love and worship God in spirit and truth as Jesus said one should.

Father James Altman is a good and holy priest. Finding him was one of the only bright lights to come out of lockdown here in Atlantic Canada. We need more priests like him. Please do not let the evil one get away with silencing him...God bless you!
