Despite severe flooding at St. John the Baptist Parish in Hagonoy, Bulacan, Philippines, Leian Lieza Galang and Gilbert Chico chose to go forward with their Catholic wedding on Sept. 1. With their clothes soaked and fewer than 15 guests present, they stood before the altar and received the Sacrament of Matrimony.
Sorry, the profane music and atmosphere used for the occasion of conferring -- for life -- the sacred Sacrament of Matrimony deserves to be flooded out.
The Armenian Quarter of Jerusalem has become a spitting center for Jewish extremists. Every day there is a hateful incident, and every day there is impunity. "Why did you spit?" "I spat on purpose!" "Why?" "I spat on your stinking monastery!"
Spitting is a grave sin. The jews spat on Christ and when we spit on anyone we are spitting on Christ and doing what the jews did to Our Lord. That's what we were taught in our Catholic Schools. Spitting is not only disgusting, but a grave sin. Nor a minor problem.
This spitting is a minor problem, considering what is happening. Secondly, it is much more easy to spit having Jerusalem recognized as the Zionist capital, isn't it?
"The Coalition of Catholics Against Antisemitism has been tapped by the Government of Israel as part of its latest outreach to American Catholics"
EWTN is reporting the so-called “Coalition of Catholics Against Antisemitism” (CCAA) has been “tapped by the Government of Israel as part of its latest outreach to American Catholics.” A high-ranking Israeli official, Tammy Ben-Haim, met in May with the head of the CCAA Simone Rizkallah in Washington, DC. Rizkallah previously received funding from billionaire, Jewish activist Paul Singer and is currently affiliated with the “Tikvah Fund.” Rizkallah said in the article Israel’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs wanted to “design a trip specifically for Catholic leaders, [so] it made sense that they would reach out to us.”
Continuing his catechetical series on Vatican II, reflecting now on the Pastoral Constitution on the Church in the Modern World, Gaudium et spes, Pope Leo XIV says: “This Document focuses on the Church’s pastoral responsibility to engage with the contemporary world, sharing in its joys and sorrows, and calls for a commitment to conversion, bearing witness to Christ’s work, and advocating for the poor and marginalized. The Church is also to be attentive to the signs of the times, interpreting them in the light of the Gospel, thereby addressing pressing issues such as the technological progress that benefits only some and the persistence of widespread poverty. In our own day, marked by profound change and much injustice, each of us, then, is called to play our part in welcoming and listening to the deepest questions and longings of the human heart, making present to all the merciful love of Christ our Savior.”

Dal comunicato dei genitori, unitamente all'avvocato Pillon: "... si reputa contrario all’articolo 30 della Costituzione e a tutte le convenzioni sovranazionali in tema di libertà educativa l’emanato ordine che sembra essere orientato a mantenere i minori in casa famiglia finché i genitori non dimostreranno di avere accettato l’iscrizione dei bambini alla scuola pubblica, in luogo dell’istruzione parentale preferita dalla coppia ".

@ Novena. Die meisten Punkte gehen an Sie. Das freut mich ungemein. Ich fand dieses Musikstück so erheben und ich dachte mir, da fällt Weihnachten, Ostern und Pfingsten zusammen. Marco Frisinas Musik ist einfach großartig.
The US Department of Justice has concluded that the FBI improperly investigated traditional Catholics as potential extremists, monitored two priests and continued developing a controversial intelligence assessment after the bureau had ordered it withdrawn.
On August 28, the U.S. Justice Department released a 231-page report on the FBI’s 2023 Richmond Catholic memo, including evidence of surveillance of traditionalist Catholic clergy. The FBI investigated two priests and conducted surveillance connected to them. One belonged to the Priestly Fraternity of St. Pius X (FSSPX); the other, his uncle, was associated with SSPX Resistance and had been ordained by Bishop Richard Williamson. Agents researched travel and credit-card records. FBI personnel in Boston surveilled the second priest at the airport, while Customs and Border Protection questioned him and searched his phone. Both investigations were subsequently closed after the FBI found no identified national-security threat and no alleged violation of federal law. Among the exhibits in the DOJ report is an FBI PowerPoint titled “Traditionalist Catholicism Overview” - essentially a rudimentary guide to the various traditionalist Catholic groups and sects. Remarkably, the presentation included …More
Der König hatte den Einsiedler versehentlich mit einem Pfeil verletzt. Er sagte: Gott hat es zugelassen, also ist es gut. Darum hat der König ihm das Kloster geschenkt.
Der hl. Ägidius und der Pfeil, der ihn statt der Hirschkuh traf Am 1. September steht im überlieferten Kalender der Gedenktag des heiligen Ägidius, Abt von St-Gilles. Als eine königliche Jagd die Hirschkuh aufhetzte, die ihn in der Einöde genährt hatte, floh sie zu ihm in die Höhle. Ägidius deckte sie mit seinem Leib, und der Pfeil traf ihn. Der König bot ihm alles an. Er erbat ein Kloster. Quelle: Ägidius von St-Gilles - Ökumenisches … #katholisch#Heilige#Gebet
After the 2018 Sino-Vatican agreement “terrible things happen to Catholics” in the Fujian province, an anonymous Chinese bishop who is unaffiliated with the Chinese state church ‘Patriotic Association’, told Anthony Clark for CatholicWorldReport.com on August 23. The bishop speaks of a “state of emergency”. As government influence over the bishops increases, “the integrity of the Catholic faith will suffer.” To “assure the survival of China’s Church,” new bishops have been “secretly consecrated.” The bishop says the faithful question Rome’s genuine concern for their “spiritual well-being” when the Holy See approves government-selected bishops whom they regard as too reliable to the state. The number is unknown, but he suggested that “at least ten new bishops” were consecrated for the underground community in the Fujian province. #newsTzdkbhbakv
The court said the 64-year-old pastor stood in the aisle despite repeated attempts by crew members to stop him and shouted at passengers, “You will go to hell if you don’t believe in Jesus.”
Dvaja pastori v Južnej Kórei dostali pokutu vo výške 1 milión wonov (približne 620 eur) každý za to, že počas vnútroštátneho letu z Čedžu do Soulu hlasno kázali. Vykrikovali, že cestujúci „pôjdu do pekla“, ak neuveria v Ježiša, pričom jeden z nich sa pohyboval po kabíne. Pokračovali v tom aj napriek výzvam palubného personálu, aby prestali. Súd v Soule konštatoval, že ich správanie predstavovalo narušenie poriadku podľa juhokórejského zákona o leteckej bezpečnosti.
Monate später, im Februar 2018, gelang eine bemerkenswerte Entdeckung: Pater Angelo Ciancotti öffnete einen aus den Trümmern geborgenen Tabernakel. Darin befand sich ein Ziborium mit 40 konsekrierten Hostien, die etwa 16 Monate lang unter der Zerstörung unversehrt geblieben waren. Berichten zufolge wiesen die Hostien keinerlei sichtbare Anzeichen von Schimmel oder Verfall auf
16 MONATE UNTER TRÜMMERN: 40 EUCHARISTISCHE HOSTIEN NACH ERDBEBEN IN ITALIEN UNVERSEHRT GEFUNDEN Vor zehn Jahren wurde Mittelitalien von verheerenden Erdbeben erschüttert, die fast 300 Menschenleben forderten und unzählige Häuser, historische Gebäude und Kirchen zerstörten. Zu den beschädigten Kirchen gehörte auch Santa Maria Assunta in Arquata del Tronto, die beim Erdbeben im Oktober 2016 einstürzte. Monate später, im Februar 2018, gelang eine bemerkenswerte Entdeckung: Pater Angelo Ciancotti öffnete einen aus den Trümmern geborgenen Tabernakel. Darin befand sich ein Ziborium mit 40 konsekrierten Hostien, die etwa 16 Monate lang unter der Zerstörung unversehrt geblieben waren. Berichten zufolge wiesen die Hostien keinerlei sichtbare Anzeichen von Schimmel oder Verfall auf; Aussehen und Duft waren unverändert. Auf die Frage, ob Konservierungsmittel verwendet worden seien, antworteten die Ordensschwestern, die die Hostien vorbereitet hatten: „Nur Mehl und Wasser.“ Für viele Katholiken …More
Ein deutscher Priester hat angekündigt, dass er aus dem Priesteramt ausscheiden werde, um eine Frau zu heiraten, mit der er „seit vielen Jahren“ heimlich eine Beziehung führe. „Die Liebe ruft mich zurück zu der Frau, mit der ich schon lange mein Leben teile“, sagte Andreas Unfried. Er fügte hinzu, dass ihm bewusst sei, dass dies zu einer „Suspendierung vom Priesteramt“ führen werde. Unfried ist Priester in der Diözese von Bischof Bätzing.
Kurz vor dem Ruhestand hängt er in einer emotionalen, öffentlichen Beichte das Messgewand an den Nagel, gibt die Pfarrei auf und will seine Freundin heiraten.
Really Leo XIV? "Let us seek not to retreat into our own convictions and religious certainties."
Two short video quotes from today's Angelus: Leo XIV offers unusual definitions of faith, suggesting that focusing on what has been handed down to us is insufficient.
@Aquila : Der NO wird nicht schlechtgeredet. Es zeigt sich nur sein Potential für Vielfalt. Wer Jesu Christi Worte, z. B. in der Wandlung, verfälscht, der liegt fasch. Das ist auch nur im NO möglich, das gibts beim Tridentinischen Ritus nicht.
Das hat mit dem Novus Ordo nichts zu tun! Man soll endlich aufhören, den Novus Ordo auf jede erdenkliche Weise schlechtzureden! Wir brauchen keine „Bekehrung” zum alten Ritus, sondern zu JESUS CHRISTUS!
Bartholomew, the disciple whom St. Philip brought to our Lord, under the name of Nathanael and whom our Lord praised on account of his innocence and simplicity of his heart. He carried the Gospel to Asia, India, and Armenia, where he was flayed alive.
