No.

I adjure you, ancient serpent,

by the judge of the living

and the dead,

by your Creator, by the Creator

of the whole universe,

by Him who has the power to

consign you to hell,

to depart forthwith in fear

along with your savage minions

from this servant of God, Katie,

who seeks refuge

in the fold of the Church.

Make no resistance nor delay

in departing from this man,

for it has pleased God

to dwell in Man.

It is God Himself

who commands you.

The majestic Christ

commands you.

God the Father commands you!

God the Son commands you!

God the Holy Spirit

commands you!

The mystery of the cross

commands you!

The faith of the holy apostles,

Peter and Paul,

and of all the saints

commands you.

The blood of the martyrs

commands you.

The devout prayers of all

holy men and women commands you.

The saving mysteries of our

Christian faith commands you!

- Katie?

- What have you done?

So you will kill in the name

of your God just to save?

You doubt your faith, priest.

- Father!

- Stay back!

I crown you like they crowned

the King of Jews!

Father!

Sam!

And I crucify you like they

crucified the Nazarene!

Die, priest, and be silent!

No.

Look deep inside yourself.

Find God, who's always

been there, who never left you.

If there is a God, priest,

why would He afflict his

children with pain and disease?

Pain and disease

are part of life,

part of our faith.

Pain and disease

reminds us of life

like bitter reminds us of

sweet.

We can reach Katie.

Get her down.

Hold on, Katie!

Didn't Mommy say pain reminds us

of how precious life is?

Can you feel that pain, Katie?

Do you remember

what your mommy said?

Hold on to that pain!

It's working.

Aunt Jamie?

Katie.

Daddy.

The Church is very grateful

for your gift.

We're going to

build a seminary here

and name it

after Father De Silva.

Thank you for everything.

You take care.

I spoke to your daddy.

You'll be spending Christmas

in Chicago.

Really, Daddy?

Yeah. Let go, little lady,

or your aunt's going to miss

her flight.

Take care.
