Football Fan Mass in Argentina. Worse than Germany: On 16 July, football fan signs, including altar decorations, flags, hats and shirts, were incorporated into a Mass at the Nuestra Señora de la Candelaria parish in Córdoba's Villa Argentina neighbourhood. The service was led by Rev. Luis Luján. He explained that the idea was to stay close to people and use the excitement around the national team to communicate Gospel values.
I wonder if we're taking this World Cup business too far. Father "Lucho", Our Lady of Candelaria Parish, Villa Argentina neighborhood, Córdoba. Visit our Blog: pagina-catolica.blogspot.com
Christ said, My house is a house of prayer, but you have made it a den of thieves. Ecclesiastics says there is a time and a place for everything, but a church is not a place of revelry.
A Roman intelligence investigation has led to the arrest of two former Italian intelligence agents, Gavino Raoul Piras and Vincenzo Di Pasquale, who are accused of selling classified information to the Russian GRU (military intelligence). The investigation, which began in 2025, was initiated after the Italian AISI (Internal Security Agency) detected the Russians had recruited an ex-agent. The Russian agent, Mikhail Astakhov, operated under a diplomatic cover in Italy, allowing him to avoid arrest.
Humpback Whale Crucified among Priests, Altar Servers and an Altar: The blasphemous play Timmy: Hope Dies Last, which premiered on 11 July at the Ernst Deutsch Theater in Hamburg, Germany, portrays the stranded humpback whale Timmy as a Christ-like figure. Directed by Alexander Klessinger, the production features a 'Mass for Timmy', a crucifixion. The production was inspired by Timmy, whose stranding in the Baltic Sea this spring prompted a nationwide rescue effort. The whale was found dead off the coast of Denmark approximately two weeks after being freed. The operation reportedly cost around €2 million.
Es macht traurig und entsetzt zugleich, mit welcher Selbstverständlichkeit das Heilige für Millionen von Christen verspottet wird. Jesus Christus – er, der die Liebe, die Vergebung und die Hoffnung ist – wird erneut zum Gegenstand von Provokation und Lächerlichmachung gemacht. Wo bleibt der viel beschworene Respekt vor Religionen, wenn es um den christlichen Glauben geht? Von Toleranz und Rücksicht wird gesprochen – doch immer wieder scheint das Christentum ein einfaches Ziel für Angriffe zu sein. Andere Religionen werden häufig mit größerer Vorsicht behandelt, während der Name Jesu öffentlich verspottet wird. Doch wir wissen als Christen: Das Wort war schon immer ein Dorn im Auge der Widersacher. „Denn es kommt die Zeit, da sie die gesunde Lehre nicht ertragen werden; sondern nach ihren eigenen Begierden werden sie sich selbst Lehrer aufladen, nach denen ihnen die Ohren jucken.“ (2. Timotheus 4,3) Jesus selbst sagte: „Wenn die Welt euch hasst, so wisst, dass sie mich vor euch gehasst hat.“ …Mwy

That's what you call a follower. Always wants to be part of the crowd and fit in. With a weak mind who can't think, for themselves and to avoid problems with them. That's a real pity. The only time you would ever see me following anyone was when I couldn't talk my friends out of something. So I would go to watch over them to try and stop any problems or protecting them. A friend of over 60 years just mentioned that to me last night in an email.
Apostate Jorge Bergoglio: No Catholic Mass available? Just go to the Anglicans! It is not licit for the faithful by any manner to assist actively or to have a part in the sacred [rites] of non-Catholics. (Canon 1258 §1) Whoever in any manner willingly and knowingly helps in the promulgation of heresy, or who communicates in things divine [=assists at sacred rites] with heretics against the prescription of Canon 1258, is suspected of heresy. (Canon 2316) It is unlawful for Catholics in any way to assist actively at or take part in the worship of non-Catholics (Canon 1258). Such assistance is intrinsically and gravely evil; for (a) if the worship is non-Catholic in its form (e.g., Mohammedan ablutions, the Jewish paschal meal, revivalistic “hitting the trail,” the right hand of fellowship, etc.), it expresses a belief in the false creed symbolized; (b) if the worship is Catholic in form, but is under the auspices of a non-Catholic body (e.g., Baptism as administered by a Protestant minister …Mwy
Papa Jorge ate too g d much. He was/'is a disgrace to the Church as even his Jesuit superior said to Woytyla who ignored the Jesuit superior Koilvenbach's plea not to appoint him. Then again we really do not know if Wotyla ever was licitly ordained.
26 Years Later: Why Jeanette Hall Is Still Grateful to Be Alive: In Oregon, USA, on July 17, 2000, Jeanette Hall was diagnosed with colorectal cancer. Believing she had no future, she asked her doctor for assisted suicide under Oregon's newly enacted law. Instead of writing the prescription, Dr. Kenneth Stevens took the time to understand her fears and encouraged her to consider treatment. One question changed everything: "Wouldn't you like to see your son graduate from the police academy?" Jeanette chose treatment. She survived, attended her son's graduation, and years later told Dr. Stevens: "You saved my life. If I had gone to a doctor that believed in assisted suicide, I would not be here."
Pope Leo XIV just appointed a German bishop who supported same-sex blessings, gender ideology, and LGBT initiatives. The same Vatican that celebrated that appointment has now imposed canonical sanctions on the Society of Saint Pius X, sanctions that require a more demanding process for lifting than the procedure for Catholics who have procured an abortion. The comparison is stark. The priorities are exposed. The inconsistencies that have left traditional Catholics reeling are now being seen. John-Henry Westen also investigates a widely circulated letter attributed to Bishop Fulton Sheen criticizing the SSPX. While the letter may be genuine, the host argues it likely does not reflect Sheen's own thinking, citing historical inaccuracies, Sheen's declining health, and the possibility that staff drafted much of his correspondence. The Vatican's treatment of the SSPX is not about discipline. It is about eliminating the Traditional Latin Mass and the communities that preserve it. The episcopal …Mwy
Another piece of the puzzle is that +Sheen - like MANY priests at the time (even my saintly confessor) - saw Vatican II as "of the Holy Spirit" and submitted to it in obedience. They explained the fallout after the 2nd Vatican Council as a "high jacking" of the "reform" by radical progressives. Hindsight has revealed that the impetus of the council itself was flawed: that the Church needed to change to speak to "the modern world."
This is not meant to be uncharitable, but Fulton Sheen should not be a yardstick to measure orthodoxy. Whatever zeal he had initially, he was full bore a lover of VCII, Paul VI and the new mass. I am sure with that pedigree he was not a friend of Abp. Lefebvre or the Society
The contribution of three women - two religious sisters and one laywoman - at the Dicastery for Bishops is "highly valued and important," the Prefect, Archbishop Filippo Iannone, told Glas-Koncila.hr on July 14. As head of the Dicastery for Bishops, Monsignor Iannone oversees the Vatican office responsible for evaluating candidates for bishopric. However, many of these appointments are very controversial and difficult to justify from a Catholic perspective. Appointments are one of the most important ways in which a pope exercises governance and reveals his true priorities. Francis announced in July 2022 that women would become members of the Dicastery for Bishops for the first time in history. He then appointed Sr. Raffaella Petrini, Sr. Yvonne Reungoat and María Lía Zervino. Leo XIV retained the reform by confirming Petrini and Zervino as members and appointing Sr. Simona Brambilla. Reungoat's term ended. All four women are closely associated with the Francis-era deform agenda and its …Mwy
Archbishop Wrote That Leo XIV Shares Pro-Homosexual Agenda: The pro-homosexual final report of the Synod's Study Group Number 9 should not surprise anybody, because certain bishops are encouraging the homosex community, Cardinal Burke told Edward Pentin in a recent video interview. These bishops claim that the Church is changing and that the homosexuals should continue in their sinful ways. Cardinal Burke mentioned the letter from an Archbishop who claimed that "Leo XIV shared this view, because he doesn’t talk about sexual morality." For Cardinal Burke it is completely irresponsible to write something like that.
On June 26, the Archdiocese of Chicago, ruined by Cardinal Blase Cupich, dedicated a memorial for suiciders. The memorial, titled "At Peace," is located at Queen of Heaven Cemetery in Hillside, Illinois. According to the Archdiocese, it is the first memorial established by a Catholic archdiocese in the United States specifically for suiciders. The Vicar General, auxiliary Bishop Lawrence Sullivan, said in a June 24 statement that the memorial was created to "honor the lives lost to suicide". And: "Historically, the Catholic Church denied Catholic funerals in churches and burials in consecrated ground for individuals who died by suicide. The Church has undergone a significant transformation in its understanding of suicide and mental illness and now recognizes that many who die by suicide suffer from mental illness and unbearable pain. The Church now embraces these individuals and affirms that they are with God, not condemned." #newsBdkpdqzsck
Deacon Recites Parts of the Eucharistic Prayer: On June 27, during a funeral in Mühlwald, Diocese of Bolzano-Brixen (Bozen-Brixen), Italy, a deacon recited parts of the Eucharistic Prayer. According to the Missal, the Eucharistic Prayer is reserved to the priest alone. The diocesan bishop is Bishop Ivo Muser.

Run of Saint Andrew: Amalfi's Centuries-Old Tradition. The spectacular 'Run of Saint Andrew' in Amalfi, Italy, is part of a centuries-old celebration honoring Saint Andrew, the city's patron saint. According to local tradition, on 27 June 1544, as the fleet of the Ottoman corsair Khayr al-Din Barbarossa threatened Amalfi, the townspeople prayed for Saint Andrew's intercession. A violent storm scattered the enemy ships, and the city was spared. Each year on 27 June, bearers carry the silver reliquary bust of Saint Andrew at a run up the 62 steps of Amalfi Cathedral, commemorating this traditional account of the city's deliverance.
La spettacolare "Corsa di Sant'Andrea": cinque secoli di fede e tradizione: Secondo la tradizione, il 27 giugno 1544, mentre la flotta del celebre corsaro ottomano Khayr ad-Din Barbarossa minacciava Amalfi, gli abitanti implorarono l'intercessione di Sant'Andrea.
I agree with this. I have posted many ProLife articles and nobody ever responds in a sympathetic way to the unborn in danger of abortion. The latest example was someone extoling Barnhardt for her prolife articles when the truth is that she has never written a prolife article.
Today, Don Davide Pagliarani, Superior of the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (FSSPX), responded to the 2 July decree of excommunication. It "once again highlights the deeply tragic situation facing the universal Church." He claims that the FSSPX's actions are motivated solely by the desire to save souls and insists that the Fraternity does not seek to replace the Church, but to remain faithful to her. Using the biblical imagery of asking for bread, fish, and an egg (cf. Luke 11:11–13), he says the Fraternity's requests were met with rejection, symbolised by receiving a stone, serpent, and scorpion. According to Pagliarani, the FSSPX had asked to be instructed and confirmed in "the faith of all time", yet was instead declared schismatic for a second time. His central statement is this: "The FSSPX promises You today that it will not receive these new sanctions - objectively unjust and invalid - with bitterness or revolt." Don Pagliarani concludes by expressing confidence that one …Mwy

Vatican Responded "Good Luck" to the Catholic State Idea: Today, Bishop Bernard Fellay FSSPX ordained five priests and three deacons in Écône. During his homily, he claimed "a small incident" witnessed by all the leading figures of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, including the Prefect, the Secretary and the Undersecretary. The FSSPX said that they want to win over individuals but also societies for Christ. The alleged response from the Congregation: "Good luck." Monsignor Fellay comments: "They no longer believe it."
Mgr Fellay reports this highly revealing anecdote about the mindset of the Roman authorities. When the FSSPX tells them that it wants to work to bring souls and societies back to God, these same authorities say to it, "Good luck!" They no longer believe in it!
