Leo XIV has named the homosexual activist Michael Saporito, 64, Bishop of Metuchen, New Jersey (September 15). Monsignor Saporito, 64, is currently auxiliary bishop of Newark. Institutional Connection to McCarrick A native of Newark, Saporito entered the McCarrick seminary in 1987. In 1992, Archbishop Theodore McCarrick ordained Saporito to the priesthood. In 1999, homosexual McCarrick elevated the young Rev Saporito as assistant director of vocations. Founded Homosexual Ministry in Parish During Saporito’s tenure as pastor of St. Joseph Church in Maplewood (2004–2011), the parish employed an openly homosexual man as its full-time director of music and liturgy. He said he disclosed the relationship before being hired. Furthermore, as pastor of St. Joseph, Rev Saporito founded a group for homosexuals called "Open Arms Ministry." A 2011 report noted that the parish's embrace of homosexuals came under Saporito: “Above all, according to parishioners, Saporito - through words and deeds …Máis
Interesting Miracle in Russia with Saint Nicholas in 1956. Saint Nicholas is the most popular Saint in Russia. When Bergoglio lent Russia Relics of Saint Nicholas, it was said many Miracles occurred as well. President Putin made sure he also venerated the relics. Strange Miracle - 1956 - St. Nicholas Center MOSCOW, May 24. /TASS/. President Vladimir Putin came to Moscow's downtown Cathedral of the Savior on Wednesday to venerate the relics of St Nicholas the Wonderworker that arrived in Moscow from Bari, Italy, on Sunday. Prior to visiting the cathedral Putin came to the official residence of the Patriarch of Moscow and all Russia Kirill I. He congratulated the Patriarch on the occasion of patron saint’s day and also had a meeting with the visiting head of the Coptic Orthodox Church, Pope Tawadros II. “This event (the delivery of a fragment of St Nicholas’s relics from Bari to Russia TASS) became possible thanks to an agreement reached at a meeting between Patriarch Kirill I and Pope of …Máis
Emmanuel Macron’s request to accompany Leo XIV for a few minutes inside Notre-Dame Cathedral was not accepted by the Holy See, La Croix reports. This reflects a wider disagreement over the papal visit. Several requests from the Élysée were refused: the military welcome will be reduced, avoiding the Republican Guard and its drums; the Holy See declined the Grand Cross of the Legion of Honour; and there will be no state lunch or dinner with Macron.
LaCroix écrit que « la demande d’Emmanuel Macron d’accompagner le pape pendant quelques minutes à Notre-Dame n’a pas été acceptée par le Saint-Siège. Cet épisode met en lumière les divergences qui ont marqué les préparatifs : Paris envisageait une visite d’État, tandis que Rome voyait plutôt un voyage apostolique ».
A BLACK MANTLE. A GENTLE KISS. WHAT DID CHANDAVILA REVEAL? | SG News Beneath a chestnut tree in the quiet Spanish countryside, a 10-year-old girl reported an encounter marked not principally by fear or spectacle, but by a mother’s tenderness. In 1945, Marcelina Barroso Expósito said she experienced the presence of the Blessed Virgin Mary under the title Our Lady of Sorrows at Chandavila, near La Codosera in Extremadura, Spain. Her experiences began on May 27. Marcelina described initially seeing a dark figure that later became clearer as Our Lady of Sorrows, clothed in a black mantle filled with stars. But according to the Vatican, what marked Marcelina most deeply was something more personal: She said Mary embraced her and kissed her on the forehead. Days later, Marcelina reported being asked to travel on her knees across a difficult stretch covered with thorns, sharp stones and dry chestnut husks. The message accompanying the challenge was one of trust: “Do not be afraid; nothing will …Máis
EIN SCHWARZER MANTEL. EIN SANFTER KUSS. WAS HAT CHANDAVILA OFFENBART? Unter einem Kastanienbaum in der stillen spanischen Landschaft berichtete ein zehnjähriges Mädchen von einer Begegnung, die nicht primär von Furcht oder Spektakel, sondern von mütterlicher Zärtlichkeit geprägt war. 1945 gab Marcelina Barroso Expósito an, die Gegenwart der Jungfrau Maria unter dem Titel „Unsere Liebe Frau der Schmerzen“ in Chandavila bei La Codosera in Extremadura, Spanien, erlebt zu haben. Ihre Erlebnisse begannen am 27. Mai. Marcelina beschrieb, zunächst eine dunkle Gestalt gesehen zu haben, die sich später als „Unsere Liebe Frau der Schmerzen“ offenbarte, bekleidet mit einem schwarzen, sternenübersäten Mantel. Doch laut Vatikan war es etwas Persönlicheres, das Marcelina am tiefsten berührte: Sie sagte, Maria habe sie umarmt und ihr einen Kuss auf die Stirn gegeben. Tage später berichtete Marcelina, sie sei aufgefordert worden, auf Knien einen schwierigen, mit Dornen, scharfen Steinen und trockenen …Máis
Leo XIV appoints military bishop who wants to “make a different Church”, and is open to female deacons and Communion for homosexuals. On September 14, Leo XIV has appointed Bishop Pedro Luis Fuentes Valencia, 58, as Military Ordinary for Bolivia. The Passionist bishop has served as apostolic administrator of the Military Ordinary since 2022, alongside his duties as auxiliary bishop of La Paz. Fuentes represented the Bolivian bishops at both sessions of the Synod on Synodality in Rome in 2023 and 2024. "Synodality Is Nature of Church" In October 2023 he spoke of having “the courage to build a different kind of church”. In June 2024, he defined synodality as “the very nature of the Church”. In July 2024, he repeated: “The Synod on Synodality is a way of being the Church.” And: “This is the Church’s identity: listening to one another, sharing, walking together, maturing together, growing together,” Communion for Homosexuals In October 2023, Monsignor Fuentes spoke about Holy Communion …Máis
In October 2023, Monsignor Fuentes spoke about Holy Communion for adulterers and those “not in full communion with the church”. According to Ceb.bo this included “the situation of the LGBT community”. Bishop Fuentes said: “This remains under debate, and the issue is still open. But to enter into Communion, one must reflect on one’s life—not so much in a moralistic sense, but in terms of what it means to be a Christian, for that is the direction we are heading in: what it means to be baptized and to be a follower of the Lord.”
Here is an example of what I mean: the Pope has appointed a new bishop for Terni, Italy—in addition to appointing the infamous Bishop Saporito to the See of Metuchen. Here is what the traditionalist blog *Messainlatino* says about him: "Our sources inform us that the appointment of Monsignor Alfonso Raimo—currently Auxiliary Bishop of Salerno-Campagna-Acerno—as the new Bishop of Terni-Narni-Amelia will be announced shortly. We understand that he is the rector of the Church of San Giorgio Martire in Salerno, where the traditional Holy Mass is celebrated and where he has also delivered homilies, and that he holds 'orthodox' positions regarding doctrine." I am certain that Gloria.tv will publish an article defaming this bishop, claiming he said something "synodal," met with Protestants, or something similar. This amounts to discrediting the Church. Saporito is a heretic; Raimo is not. Yet for Gloria.tv and its followers, both are trash; this is lying and defamation.
The FSSPX makes its annual pilgrimage to Einsiedeln, but its procession remains on public ground. The Priestly Fraternity of St. Pius X (FSSPX) makes an annual Rosary pilgrimage to the famous Swiss monastery of Einsiedeln. This year’s pilgrimage takes place on October 10, but the public prayer procession is held only on public ground. Organised by the FSSPX-associated Militia Immaculatae, the procession has been held annually since 2021. Around 750 people participated in 2025. The distinction over where it takes place is significant. The lower part of the square in front of Einsiedeln Abbey, including the Marian fountain and the area up to the monastery arcades, belongs to the District of Einsiedeln and is public property. The upper part belongs to the monastery. The district has authorised the procession on its property. Fr. Philipp Steiner told kath.ch that the abbey had not been asked for permission and had only recently been informed of this year’s event. He stressed that “Einsiedeln …Máis

“Conservative” Auxiliary Bishop Josef Graf of Regensburg, Germany, can envision ordaining married men to the priesthood. Monsignor Graf made this remarks during a holiday in San Genesio, South Tyrol, where he also helped with the grape harvest in a local vineyard. He told Bz-bx.net: “I personally believe that the Church could afford viri probati”. He added that married priests would probably not solve the shortage of priests. On the ordination of women to the priesthood, Monsignor Graf said he believes it is “not possible.” He pointed there are “still” weighty theological reasons for reserving Holy Orders to men. #newsAdwjzpyvzr
Mature married men have worked out as well in the parishes founded by Anglicans who converted to Catholicism and, of course, historically in the Eastern Churches, so I don't see what people are worrying about. As long as they don't offer ordination to married men under the age of, say, 45 or 50, I think they'd make an excellent and much needed source of new priests.
Toronto Archdiocese cracks down on the traditional Latin Masses. Cardinal Francis Leo of Toronto, Canada, is implementing 'Traditionis Custodes', effective next Sunday. VoxCantor.blogspot.com published a terrifying detail: One Sunday per month, the Novus Ordo must be said. At the parish St. Vincent, the old high altar will be used. At the parish Holy Family the Novus Ordo will be presided over with the back to God facing the people. And: No other sacraments are permitted according to the 1962 usage. There are four major parish churches in the Archdiocese of Toronto celebrating the Roman rite: - St. Lawrence the Martyr Parish — Scarborough - St. Patrick’s Parish — Schomberg - Holy Family Parish — Toronto - St. Vincent de Paul Parish — Toronto The Masses at Schomberg and Scarborough have existed for over 40 years. All four parishes have sufficient Novus Ordo Eucharists in various languages. The numbers are interesting, too. At these four Masses and two celebrated by the Priestly Fraternity …Máis
St. Vincent de Paul Parish has one TLM a week, a Missa Lecta on Sundays at 9:30am; its first monthly restriction is to happen next Sunday on September 20th, to be replaced by an English-language Mass "celebrated at the high altar in the Oratory way." As it stands, the parish already has Sunday morning Modern Roman Rite Masses in English at 8:30am and 11am (the latter with music). Holy Family Parish has had an 11am Sunday TLM Missa Solemnis for several years, now replaced once a month for a Latin Modern Roman Rite Mass versus populum, starting on September 27th; no mention was made of the parish's daily Traditional Latin Mass being affected, though the announcement noted that St. Vincent de Paul parishioners seeking Sunday refuge at Holy Family are advised that the Holy Family 11am Sunday TLM is already standing room only.
Catholic priest had his cremated ashes turned into a blue diamond to become a “diamond with countless facets” reflecting God’s love. Vatican teaching forbids converting remains into jewelry and calls for burial as it honors the resurrection of the body.

The Popes of Vatican II and the post-council with regard to the doctrine of Judeo-Christianity (“Ancient Covenant not abrogated”; “The Jews are saved without Christ”; “The Church must not evangelize the Jews”) are objectively “false preachers of the Gospel, who are to be regarded as blasphemers, condemned to anathema or extermination”...
However the sedevacantist interpretation of Vatican Council II is also irrational as that of Pope Leo XIV and the SSPX. Vatican Council II irrational is political left.
Leo XIV Appoints Ecumenical Archbishop: "I Never Pray That A Reformed Christian Become Catholic" Today, Leo XIV has appointed Bishop Ferenc Palánki, 62, as the new Metropolitan Archbishop of Kalocsa-Kecskemét, Hungary.

A canon lawyer, he was appointed auxiliary bishop of Eger in 2010 and ordained a bishop in 2011. 2015: Pro-Migration against Hungarian Cardinal During the migration crisis in 2015, Palánki was asked whether he sides with Cardinal Erdő and Bishop Kiss-Rigó (both took anti-migrant lines) or with the Pope's call to take migrants in.
