Church Militant

One of the giants upon whose shoulders we at Church Militant stand

A faithful son of Holy Mother Church, Paul A. Likoudis went before Our Lord on September 22 as a result of his three-year battle with cancer. A brief obituary can be read here.

His body will be buried September 28 near his hometown of Caywood, New York, but his legacy of defending the Catholic faith, oftentimes against enemies from within the Church Herself, will live on in the many thousands he inspired by his writings and talks.

In praying for the repose of Likoudis’ soul, Michael Voris remarked that Paul was “truly a good man” and “a greatly beloved defender of the Faith.” Voris pointed out the influence that Likoudis had on his own apostolate. “He was very involved in the initial resistance to the rebellion in the Church, and is one of the giants upon whose shoulders we consider ourselves here at Church Militant standing.” …

He deserves praise for exposing Church corruption in the years prior to 2002, when the clergy sex abuse scandal exploded in the secular mainstream media.”
