On June 13, two homosexual men celebrated a “Mass of Thanksgiving for 50 Years of Friendship, Partnership, and Commitment in the Pursuit of Justice” at Holy Apostles Church in London, England. About 150 relatives and friends of the hardened sinners attended. The two homosexual men, Julian Filochowski and Martin Pendergast, established the Diocese of Westminster's "pastoral ministry" for homosexuals in 1999. The principal celebrant was Fr. Jim O'Keefe, a longtime "friend" of the homosexuals. The concelebrants were Bishop John Crowley, emeritus of the Diocese of Middlesbrough; Bishop John Rawsthorne, emeritus of the Diocese of Hallam; and Canon Chris Vipers, a priest of Holy Apostles Parish. Cardinal Timothy Radcliffe, OP, delivered the homily. While celebrating homosexuality, he also blasphemed against the Holy Trinity, declaring: "I would add that the Son is the friend and the Spirit is friendship. So every true, faithful, well-lived friendship is a sharing in the life of God." After …تېخىمۇ كۆپ
A deeply faithful father had a son who wanted nothing to do with God. The young man never went to church, had no interest in reading the Bible, and politely dismissed every conversation about faith. His father loved him deeply and prayed for him every day, but nothing he said seemed to reach his son's heart. As the father's health declined and he realized his life was coming to an end, he called his son to his bedside. "I have one final favor to ask you," he said. "Anything, Dad." "When I'm gone, I want you to come into this room every day for one month. Stay here for at least fifteen minutes." The son looked puzzled. "What am I supposed to do?" "Nothing," his father replied with a gentle smile. "Just sit here. That's all. Fifteen minutes every day." After his father passed away, the young man kept his promise. Day after day, he walked into the quiet room and sat there. He didn't read. He didn't pray. He simply sat in silence. Thirty days passed. Then, one Sunday morning, something …تېخىمۇ كۆپ

02.07.2026 Canonically, how can Cardinals Fernandez, Ladaria, O’Malley and Bishop Peter Libasci, interpret Vatican Council II irrationally, when Brother Andre Marie mimc interprets it rationally at the St. Benedict Center in New Hampshire, USA ? In two theological papers of the International Theological Commission, Vatican, Vatican Council II is interpreted irrationally by Cardinal Fernandez and Cardinal Luiz Ladaria sj.They are Christianity and the World Religions and The Hope of Salvation for Infants who die without being baptised. With the rational interpretation of Vatican Council II the Council has no explicit exceptions for the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus, of the Council of Florence 1442.But with the irrational interpretation of the cardinals there are exceptions for EENS.So Tradition is made obsolete for the cardinals with Vatican Council II interpreted irrationally.

On June 27, an Asian cardinal criticized at the consistory the continuing restrictions on the Mass in the Roman rite, reports IlGiornale.it. The Cardinal argued that if they were lifted, it would be much easier to attract faithful prepared to leave the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X. There are three dozen Asian cardinals. The most outspoken in support of the ancient Roman rite are Cardinals Malcolm Ranjith of Colombo, Sri Lanka, and William Goh of Singapore. Picture: AI, #newsFeyawfwlyc
On June 30, Leo XIV appointed Bishop Marco Mellino as Secretary of the Dicastery for Legislative Texts. Until now, Mellino was the deputy secretary of the same Dicastery. He was one of the principal canon-law officials of Francis' Curial reform. Born in 1966 in Canale (Piedmont), Mellino was ordained a priest in 1991 and earned his licentiate (1999) and doctorate (2000) in canon law at the Pontifical Lateran University. Defending Amoris Laetitia In January 2018, Mellino defended the controversial Chapter VIII of Amoris laetitia about giving Communion to adulterers in an article entitled 'La comunione ad alcuni fedeli in situazione irregolare' (Communion for some members of the faithful in an irregular situation). Mellino belongs to the same canon-law milieu as Cardinal Francesco Coccopalmerio, the principal Vatican defender of Amoris laetitia. In October 2018, Francis appointed Mellino as Bishop and Secretary of the Council of Cardinals (the "C9"). Creating a "Synodal Church" Monsignor …تېخىمۇ كۆپ
“Today is another historic day for the US-Israel relationship as the US receives the property that will be the future home of the new US Embassy complex — deepening and expanding our presence in Jerusalem — the eternal capital of Israel,” Huckabee said in a statement shared by the Foreign Ministry. Speaking at the ceremony, the US ambassador said Washington “recognizes Jerusalem as the eternal, indigenous and forever capital of the Jewish people.” “We are going to plant our flag, our American flag, on the soil of Jerusalem for a permanent and a brand-new embassy compound that will serve as our mothership of diplomatic activities here in Israel,” Huckabee added. “I would say God made that decision 3,800 years ago, and we finally got around to acknowledging what had been determined long before the United States of America came along.”... “Just as the United States is indispensable and irreplaceable to Israel, Israel is indispensable to the United States and to its interests throughout this …تېخىمۇ كۆپ
Leo XIV has overhauled the Vatican's financial watchdog, replacing its long-standing board-led structure with a director appointed directly by the pope. The reform, contained in a chirograph published June 30, introduces a new statute for the Authority for Financial Supervision and Information (ASIF). This body is responsible for combating money laundering and supervising the Vatican's financial system. The biggest change is institutional. Until now, ASIF was governed by a president and board - a model resembling those used by many central banks and independent financial regulators. The new statute abolishes that structure. Instead, ASIF will be headed by a director, assisted by a deputy director, both appointed by the pope for five-year terms. The authority's annual report and budget will also be submitted directly to the Council for the Economy. The statute replaces the previous board with a single papally appointed leadership, a governance model that more closely resembles that of …تېخىمۇ كۆپ
FSSPX "Liturgical" Reply for Lacking an Apostolic Mandate: Asked about the Apostolic Mandate in the liturgical rite of the Episcopal Consecrations, a notary of the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (FSSPX) read a declaration: “It is the Catholic and Roman Church, which has always been faithful to the traditions received from the Apostles, that, in entirely exceptional circumstances, demands that we uphold these traditions — the Deposit of Faith — and transmit them faithfully to all men for the salvation of their souls. From the Second Vatican Council to the present day, church authorities have been acting contrary to the faith and against holy tradition. They will no longer tolerate sound doctrine.”
When asked about the Apostolic Mandate for the Episcopal Consecrations, they justify why they will proceed without it.
They mean they are faithful to Tradition. Vatican Council II irrational is not traditional but heretical and schismatic. However they can still affirm Vatican Council II rational and ask the pope to do the same.
Book of Amos 5,14-15.21-24. Seek good and not evil, that you may live; Then truly will the LORD, the God of hosts, be with you as you claim! Hate evil and love good, and let justice prevail at the gate; Then it may be that the LORD, the God of hosts, will have pity on the remnant of Joseph. I hate, I spurn your feasts, I take no pleasure in your solemnities; Your cereal offerings I will not accept, nor consider your stall-fed peace offerings. Away with your noisy songs! I will not listen to the melodies of your harps. But if you would offer me holocausts, then let justice surge like water, and goodness like an unfailing stream.
Buch Amos 5,14-15.21-24. Sucht das Gute, nicht das Böse; dann werdet ihr leben und dann wird, wie ihr sagt, der HERR, der Gott der Heerscharen, bei euch sein. Hasst das Böse, liebt das Gute und bringt im Tor das Recht zur Geltung! Vielleicht ist der HERR, der Gott der Heerscharen, dem Rest Josefs dann gnädig. Ich hasse eure Feste, – so spricht der Herr –, ich verabscheue sie und kann eure Feiern nicht riechen. Wenn ihr mir Brandopfer darbringt, ich habe kein Gefallen an euren Gaben und eure fetten Heilsopfer will ich nicht sehen. Weg mit dem Lärm deiner Lieder! Dein Harfenspiel will ich nicht hören, sondern das Recht ströme wie Wasser, die Gerechtigkeit wie ein nie versiegender Bach. angelyelina
Cardinal Pietro Parolin told journalists in Rome today that he does not know when or how the excommunications of the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (FSSPX) will take place. “Despite this serious wound I hope that we can find ways to resolve this problem.” He also said that he was "deeply pained" by today's episcopal ordinations: "It is a schismatic act."
From Delia Gallagher: Vatican Secretary of State, Cardinal Pietro Parolin, says he is “deeply pained” by the SSPX ordinations today. “It is a schismatic act” he does not know when or how the excommunications will take place. “Despite this serious wound I hope that we can find ways to resolve this problem”
The Vatican drops the hammer: • The four new SSPX bishops, along with the two SSPX bishops who consecrated them, are excommunicated. • All SSPX priests are declared "in schism and must therefore be considered schismatics." • All lay faithful "who formally adhere to the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X are to be considered schismatics and excommunicated." • SSPX confessions and marriages are declared invalid.
The Vatican's Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith on July 2 issued a decree excommunicating the six bishops of the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (FSSPX). The decree also warns clergy and faithful not to adhere to the Fraternity's schism, stating that doing so incurs automatic excommunication. An accompanying explanatory note says that all attempts since Pope Paul VI to reconcile the movement founded by Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre with the Catholic Church have failed. The recent episcopal consecrations against the will of Pope Leo XIV, it says, "constituted the offense of schism, with the resulting canonical consequences for the sacred ministers and lay faithful involved." "The sacred ministers belonging to the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X are in schism and must therefore be considered schismatics." Lay faithful who formally adhere to the Fraternity are likewise to be considered schismatics and excommunicated. The FSSPX clergy administer "the sacraments illicitly": "The …تېخىمۇ كۆپ
Weather Deteriorated During Episcoapal Consecration: As the consecration began in Écône, a downpour doused the faithful in the field outside the tent. Meanwhile, the organ played Handel's "Lascia ch'io pianga": "Let me weep over my cruel fate, and sigh for freedom."
Au moment de la consécration, un déluge s'abat sur Écone. L'orgue entonne « Lascia ch'io pianga » tandis que les fidèles se mettent à l'abri. (Laisse-moi pleurer mon sort cruel et soupirer après la liberté ; que la douleur brise ces chaînes de mes tourments, ne serait-ce que par pitié.) Un moment d'un symbolisme tonitruant.

Thus, I thought it was appropriate to make it now as I’ll soon be doing my charity cycle ride to raise money for the church in which Henry Jermyn is buried and memorialised.

Benedict XVI: Places of worship, like this splendid Al-Hussein Bin Talal mosque, stand out like jewels across the earths surface. They all point to the divine.
It is significant that we have no record in the Gospels of our Lord having visited, or praised, the alternative temple in Samaria. He praised the actions of certain Samaritans for the action's faithfulness to the will of the Father, not for their 'Samaritan-ism' itself. Samaritan behavior of this form was used by our Lord as a sort of 'cattle-prod' to the sons and daughters of the temple of Jerusalem, and ultimately those who would follow Him through His disciples, to "up their game".

A grandson is a sweet kind of voluntary servitude. Maybe that is how God designed it: just when the colors of the world begin to fade, a little miracle appears and lights a fire inside you again, like gasoline poured onto dying embers. A grandson makes us fully human. There is an old saying that only people raise their grandchildren in this way, unlike most creatures in nature. And there is something true in that. That long-forgotten, intoxicating baby smell works on you like magic. Suddenly, you understand your own grandparents—the ones who once embarrassed you, fussed over you, and seemed a little too obsessed. For our children, we were willing to do a lot. For our grandchildren, we are willing to do everything. Now we are exactly like our grandparents were. Maybe even worse. A grandson is medicine for every ache. Back pain? Neck pain? Bad knees? Please. Just wait until you have a grandchild. Somehow, everything starts working again. Not long ago, I could barely get up without complaining …تېخىمۇ كۆپ
