I am writing today about a topic that has been on the blogs lately (Thank you, Seattlite and others!): finding like minded traditional Catholics.  I do feel like I am on an island in my faith, as many of you probably feel in your respective places.  I think that, in order to find other traditional Catholics, the first step is to pray.  (As a side note, I haven't had the time for 15 decades of the rosary on virtually any day as I had hoped.  I am lucky to get my 5 decades in!)  Pray that God will guide you to like-minded Catholics.  But then, of course, we must act as if everything depends on us even as we pray as if everything depends on God.  So, in my case, I got in touch with the person who takes care of the SSPX chapel in my town.  He told me that he was looking to start a men's group, just a few guys getting together after mass to talk about traditional issues as well as spiritual issues in our lives.  So, one possibility is to talk with your local priest or curator at your local church or chapel.  Another is simply to go up to people after mass, if there are coffee and donuts after mass that is one great time to meet new people.  Try to get to know them, they may be in the same shoes as you are! (On that Traddie island)  Or ask the priest to make an announcement for you at mass, and invite people for a suitable activity - even just saying the rosary one evening together during the week, as a group.  It may be better not to limit yourself to meeting a certain kind of traditional Catholic for fellowship, of a certain age or gender.  Since we are sorta so few and far between, at least on the surface, it may better to be more inclusive in your search.  I feel like I'm doing a poor job in this blog, because I recognize how hard it is to find traditional Catholics.   I think of that story of Elijah in the bible where he tells God that he is the only true Israelite left, and God tells him something like "I have reserved 5000 men who have not knelt to Baal"  I know the analogy isn't perfect, but it bears a little resemblance.  In any case, I welcome anyone else's ideas to finding Traditional Catholics!  Peace and God bless!
