Thirteen years ago, I was a parish priest at the above Church in the Archdiocese of Denver. I was only two years into my priesthood and already it was my third parish as a parochial vicar. Most of my enemies online now say I was kicked out of all these places. I briefly discuss this accusation in a new interview released today regarding my switch from Novus Ordo Missæ (NOM) to Traditional Latin Mass (TLM). But as you will see, the letter below is one I wrote in 2012 to our interim bishop (neither the one who ordained me, nor our current one who was only just named in 2012) [...]

In the Roman Canon of the Traditional Latin Mass, as well as my Rosaries, I found find myself repeatedly praying for the same major things across the globe and locally. Maybe it’s just my mild OCD, but I was surprised to find that my most important prayer intentions even fit into the beginning of the alphabet! I believe they refer to Holy Mother Church and the salvation of the world. At least, these are the things I find most pressing, and you can join me in prayer for them, too: A—Abortion and Trafficking, the end of:  This has been my main prayer intention for a long time.  While I may [...]

Airport adventures and meeting Bishop Henry Rene Gracida again. I will be speaking at LifeSite News' Rome Life Forum on 5 December 2025.  Please come to Rome and we can hopefully find time together after the conference.

The rightly-ordered Catholic priest (not one attracted to a lifestyle contra naturam) gives his life entirely to Jesus Christ and the Catholic Church.  Christ is my friend, my God and my Savior.  The Catholic Church is my mother, and I hope to stand as the best-man for her bridegroom, Christ, in His marriage to her in the Apocalypse.   You lay people also love the Catholic Church, but some of you can't understand how personal it is when I see modernists invade her.  It's like watching your own mother be harmed by intruders who have no rights to be in your home, especially when she is all you have. How [...]

Charlie Kirk was a Protestant, but defended Our Lady’s honor. In fact, he frequently went to daily Mass in Phoenix with his wife according to several sources I know in real life. Thus, I think it’s safe to say that if he was not a catechumen, he was on his way to being a catechumen. And the Catholic Church claimed catechumens as their own. That’s why I have a hope for his salvation. However, I won’t declare him a martyr, so we should all keep praying for his soul. We will of course be praying for his beautiful family and children that he leaves behind. And I will be offering [...]

Modernists often like to pigeon-hole real Catholics as "traditional Catholics" not because they have anything against certain traditions in the Catholic Church, but because they want to make it sound like we live in a LARPing time-warp to the 1940s.  As I have written before, modernists will happily admit that the Traditional Latin Mass (TLM) has its roots in the Council of Trent, but this is only to insist that the Novus Ordo Missæ (NOM) is the simpler "catacombs version" of the Mass, meaning the new-Mass is ironically older than the old-Mass! Of course, that doesn't even make sense linguistically, not to mention theologically.  As I have written before here, [...]

In the theology section of my site, I write very confidently about tradition versus modernism.  But to be honest with the few readers who read the Life Update section of my site here, I have to admit I am very confused at the current Church crisis.  Try as people might compare it to past crises in the Church, it always falls flat.  We've never had someone on the Chair of Peter worship a demon-idol (Pachamama) or promote gay-blessings (Fiducia Supplicans) before the 21st century. And then the next guy on the Chair tells us all he's in heaven and he's going to totally imitate his synodal church. Lay folks who [...]

Resurrection Grace In 2008, a year before my diaconate ordination, I went with a seminary professor and about 50 others (non-seminarians) to the Holy Land.  As a seminarian, a priest friend paid my way (Thanks Fr. Michael B!) not the seminary.  My seminary professor wanted nothing to do with me (yes, even back then!) so I ended up wandering the streets of Jerusalem one evening.  (Earlier that week, I had hoped for really cool graces at the Golgotha location where Jesus was crucified, but felt little consolation.) However, that evening of wandering old Jerususalem, I came into the Church of the Holy Sepulchre and inside that Church is both the [...]

The above is a picture of what my chest looks like when I do exorcism prayers and sidewalk counseling at the third largest abortion center in the world.  At the top is a Go-Pro to record all interactions (except talking to abortion-minded women.)  I record all interactions not because I am afraid that I will do something illegal, but rather that the pro-aborts will harm my pro-life team.  (If they're willing to kill babies, they're willing to kill adults.)  So, the Go-Pro is essentially a body-cam for my time at the abortion center. In the feature image above, you can see below the Go-Pro is the top of the starburst [...]

The following is an email I received from an attorney here in the USA.  He didn't expect me to publish it, but he did give me permission to do that, provided I remove his name. Dear Father Nix: I am not a scholar, influencer, or thought leader as you certainly are.  I am just a profane, vulgar, pew-sitting, often disaffected Catholic who has, by virtue of his professional training, often been  elevated to a higher station than his merit or virtue warranted.  The election of Robert Prevost, OSA to the papacy has been one of those times when I feel as if I were among the last sane individuals on [...]
