In 1947, Italian nurse and postulant Pierina Gilli reported a series of apparitions of the Blessed Virgin in Montichiari, Italy. In one, Gilli said Mary appeared with three swords piercing her heart, symbolizing the suffering and spiritual failures among priests and religious. In a later vision, the swords were replaced by three roses — white, red and yellow — representing prayer, sacrifice and penance. She reported another series of apparitions in 1966 in nearby Fontanelle. In July 2024, the Vatican’s Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith granted a nihil obstat to the devotion associated with Gilli’s experiences and messages, allowing it to be promoted publicly while stopping short of declaring the reported apparitions supernatural.
Bishop Strickland about the Traditional Latin Mass and the conciliar church Brothers and Sisters in Christ, For many Catholics, the traditional Roman liturgy is not merely in danger of being taken away. It has already been taken away. Diocesan celebrations have been suppressed, parishes have been forbidden to continue them, and faithful families have been told that the Mass which nourished generations of saints is no longer available to them. Some now drive long distances to find it. Others have no diocesan celebration within reach at all. Where communities such as the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Peter remain, the faithful are grateful. These priests have sought to preserve the traditional liturgy while maintaining a recognized canonical relationship with Rome. But precisely because they continue to submit to Roman authority, their people still live with the possibility that permissions may be narrowed, communities displaced, or the Mass restricted again. They know that what is permitted …Kara
And yet we still have people who insist he is seeking peace with Russia and Ukraine. I don't know what it will take for some to open their eyes. I would think when Rubio said, we are not intermediators and we are on the side of Ukraine would have done it. Yet, they still deny it and hold Trump up as their hero. And actually think he is seeking peace with Russia and Ukraine.
Disgruntled troops leak PHOTOS of extensive damage to US bases from Iranian strikes The vast amount of destruction at American facilities in the Middle East isn’t being communicated to the public, the soldiers told CBS Published 16 Sep, 2026 07:20 | Updated 16 Sep, 2026 08:25 US troops leak PHOTOS of extensive damage to … The servicemen who provided the photos chose to stay anonymous because of harsh media restrictions in the US military, the outlet said in an article on Tuesday. “This is major damage to our bases that hasn’t been communicated to the American public,” one of the soldiers stationed in the region said. The service member complained about insufficient air defenses at the US facilities, saying “we’re standing there with our eyes closed getting punched in the face.”
On 12 September, St John’s Church in Hyde Park, London, an Anglican temple, was hired to host Modest Fashion Week London. The runway event focused on Muslim fashion and hijab-wearing women.
More embarrassment for the Church of England. St John’s Church in London hosted the ‘Modest Fashion Week’, with parades of hijab- and niqab-wearing women.
The Saint-Colomban church is being built in Serris, Val d’Europe, near Disneyland Paris. The site will include a parish center, cultural center and Catholic school and covers about 4,000 m². On 18 September, three new bells were blessed and lifted into the 36-metre-high bell tower. The ceremony was led by Bishop Jean-Yves Nahmias of Meaux and auxiliary bishop Guillaume de Lisle. The bells weigh 275 kg, 190 kg and 155 kg. The largest is Geneviève-Étienne and the smallest Espérance (“Hope”).

Abortion pills are every abuser’s dream. A few clicks. A package in the mail. A baby’s life is ended. A woman left to suffer alone. (Video from “Students for Life”—whose leaders earn enormous salaries)
"A woman left to suffer alone." . While this is the most common situation, please never overlook the fact that men's reproductive rights are completely and fully abrogated and usurped by women and by law. A woman may kill a man's son or daughter with complete impunity, no recourse for the father, and typically no sympathy or support for the father.
Unconscionable and unthinkable that this used to be the land of the free and home of the brave. America is now the home of baby murder. I think the Students for Life leaders earn every penny they get and more.

How One Man’s Quest for a Musketeer’s Bones Got Him Locked Up nytimes.com/…/europe/wim-dijkman-musketeer-bones-… A secret archaeological dig inside a Dutch church has led to drama worthy of Alexandre Dumas. Did Wim Dijkman really find the bones of the fourth musketeer? We may never know. By Jeanna Smialek Reporting from Maastricht, the Netherlands Published Sept. 13, 2026Updated Sept. 14, 2026 Leer en español Wim Dijkman was in Munich the first time I talked to him, in possibly illicit possession of three possibly ancient bones. The remains — two teeth, one humerus — may or may not belong to what is left of D’Artagnan, the French historical figure upon whom Alexandre Dumas based the main character in “The Three Musketeers.” They are part of a skeleton Mr. Dijkman and his friends unearthed in an old church near Maastricht, in the Netherlands, earlier this year. To the city’s dismay, they did so without permits, and largely in secret: Even church parishioners weren’t fully informed about …Kara
Swedish news was filming a report in Ukraine and was interrupted by a guy running from mobilization. Earlier the same Swedish news was reporting in Ukraine and one of their team members got mobilized. The Swedish news has a hard time pretending all is fine in Ukraine.

"Remove St. John' Passion from Lectionary" - Jewish Woman New President of Catholic Biblical Association On July 20, at Loyola University Maryland in Baltimore, the 88th Annual Meeting of the Catholic Biblical Association (CBA) elected Amy-Jill Levine, 70, as president for 2026–2027. She is the first Jewish president in the CBA’s history. Founded in 1936, the CBA is an independent association with longstanding institutional ties to the U.S. bishops. Its constitution says it pursues biblical scholarship “in conformity with the teaching of the magisterium of the Catholic Church.” Levine is a New Testament scholar and is a longtime member of the CBA. In spring 2019, she became the first Jewish scholar to teach New Testament at Rome’s Pontifical Biblical Institute. She has also had three audiences with Pope Francis. In a sermon at Washington National Cathedral on March 7, 2021, Levine said: “I’m a Jew. I don’t worship Jesus as Lord and Savior.” "Lectionary Revision Is Only A Start" In an …Kara

Question: Based on all going issues since Benedict XVI resigned from ministerium and not from munus, how one can consider Bergoglio and Prevost were/are true popes? Canon 332 §2 of the 1983 Code states plainly: Si contingat ut Romanus Pontifex muneri suo renuntiet, ad validitatem requiritur ut renuntiatio libere fiat et rite manifestetur, non vero ut a quopiam acceptetur. "If it happens that the Roman Pontiff resigns his munus, it is required for validity that the resignation be freely made and properly manifested, but it is not necessary that it be accepted by anyone." The canon uses munus — not ministerium, not officium, not any other term. Munus in the canonical tradition carries the weight of the office itself: the ontological reality, the gift-and-burden of the Petrine charge, not merely its active exercise. On February 11, 2013, Benedict XVI declared in Latin: ...declaro me ministerio Episcopi Romae, Successoris Sancti Petri, mihi per manus Cardinalium die 19 aprilis MMV …Kara
Sydney Archbishop: Homosexuals Mocked Catholic Faith Sydney Archbishop Anthony Fisher noted the producers of a homosexual performance staged inside a former Catholic church on Kent Street deliberately mocked the Catholic faith. Writing in CatholicWeekly.com.au on July 28, a week after hundreds of Catholics gathered outside the venue to pray the Rosary, Archbishop Fisher rejected claims that the show was simply artistic expression. The performances were "not neutral expressions of art" but "a deliberate appropriation, sexualisation, and denigration of symbols and rituals specific and sacred to the Catholic faith." The archbishop cited promotional images showing a pig offering McDonald's fries as the "Body of Christ," male performers dressed as nuns, and events titled "Sunday Mess" and "Unholy Confessions." He considered claims - that the production was not intended to mock Catholics - were "unpersuasive." "For Catholics, the Eucharist is not a cultural motif available for parody," Fisher …Kara

Tragic Suicide of Italian -Priest, 75 Italian priest Lino Zatelli, 75, killed himself on August 12. He had been parish priest of San Carlo Borromeo in Trento for a quarter of a century. He was found dead inside the rectory of his parish after he didn’t show up to celebrate the Eucharist. Corriere del Trentino reported the death as a voluntary act. Two months earlier he had learned that he would have to leave San Carlo in November for another pastoral assignment. Zatelli publicly said he had not asked to leave. Sad detail: During his Easter homily, Don Zatelli preached about Judas's suicide. He discussed Judas as someone overwhelmed by despair who could no longer see beyond the obstacle before him, but emphasized Christ's forgiveness and imagined Jesus ultimately embracing Judas in heaven. Eucharists Beyond Rubrics A 2019 interview called him the “eternal bad boy of the Trentino Church.” A November 2020 profile describes Zatelli as working in a kind of laboratory parish. His Eucharists …Kara
We are obliged to pray for all of the lost, but the point is clear - current theological aberrations are poisoning the Faith and the Faithful. We are being led by those who "are like whitewashed sepulchers, which outwardly appear brilliant to men, yet truly, inside, they are filled with the bones of the dead and with all filth." Plus ça change, plus c’est la même chose.
Fides Et Ratio That's is all true. So many women (mostly) are involved in Occult. It doesn't matter who they are and what age. It's an 'epidemics'. They are from all walks of life; often you meet nice people just to find out that they try to cast the spells on you and get some access points to you or your home. St. Benedict Medal blessed with the special long blessings, blessed bells to clear the air, and above all being in the state of grace protect against their magicka.
Jane Allen was suffering from anorexia. She traveled to Colorado seeking treatment. Instead, her doctor offered assisted suicide — a prescription for death. Her father intervened just in time. Jane began to heal — eating again, tapering off morphine. The anorexia clinic dropped her, calling her a “liability.” When Jane chose life, her doctors walked away. Assisted suicide isn’t healthcare. It’s preying on the sick and vulnerable.
Yes, communism which NON Russians brought to the people and killed tens of millions of CATHOLICS AND ORTHODOX. Some people ought to take out all the hate from their hearts and their lying and get rid of the ignorance they speak. What was Sister Lucia concerned about? communism. What does the Church teach? communism is a sin and evil. Who did the Saintly Popes reach out to? The Russian Orthodox. Who did the Russian Orthodox reach out to? Saintly Popes. Who did most of those Saintly Popes and more condemned fiercely? protestantism. The slaughterer of souls. And also the mind. YES! The errors of Russia! But NOT of the Russian People! As the Church has said, taught and shown for centuries.
