Revelation 11:19a; 12:1-6a, 10ab The new Ark of the Covenant is Mary. And each time we receive Communion, we are an ark, the temple of the Holy Spirit and the tabernacle. 1 Corinthians 15:20-27a The Lord is life, and life continues in the Lord. Luke 1:39-56 Mary is joyful: “The Mighty One has done great things for me.” It’s the joy of God’s love revealed in the heart and being of Mary. Biblical texts: NAB-RE Normand Thomas.
Auxiliary Bishop Rob Mutsaerts of 's-Hertogenbosch wrote on August 13 an open letter to Leo XIV. Main phrases. - Does the synodal process actually help bring souls closer to Christ and to eternal salvation? […] What has all this actually yielded? Not: how many meetings were organized? Not: how many reports were written? Not: how many people participated? But: has faith become stronger? Has Christ been proclaimed more clearly? - When one asks such questions, it is impossible to consider the Synod a success. - What once began as a 2021–2024 synod threatens to become a permanent form of governance. - The classical synod was a means. In contemporary synodal discourse, synodality threatens to become an end in itself. - The Church is not a conversation but a received reality. For the Church does not begin with our dialogue. It begins with Christ. - Christ did not set up a discussion group. He called apostles. He gave them authority. He sent them out to proclaim, baptize, and teach. - Truth is …More
What the Hell Happened to Tucker Carlson? Maybe nothing happened to him. Maybe the fraud finally became impossible to ignore. By Mars Lewis August 14, 2026 Some men abandon a cause. Others remain until their presence itself proves they never believed it. That is my position on Tucker Carlson. For years conservatives watched him and believed they were seeing conviction. They were watching one of the most accomplished political performers of the era. At Fox the apparatus was complete. Platform, money, legal protection, production, distribution, and a prime-time hour that converted anger into ratings and ratings into influence. He operated as the quiet destroyer of liberal pretension. The schoolboy squint. The measured voice that still left opponents in fragments. Millions trusted him because he said what the rest of television would not say. Censorship. Institutional corruption. The intelligence services. The open disdain the governing class directed at ordinary Americans. He was frequently …More
It is striking that the strong earthquake in Bogotá, Colombia, seems not to affect this chapel of the Good Shepherd Institute at the very moment when the priest consecrates the sacred species during the Tridentine Mass. Visit our Blog: pagina-catolica.blogspot.com
The Archdiocese of Utrecht has rejected as false rumours that Cardinal Willem Eijk, 73, could have asked Pope Leo XIV during an audience on Monday to accept his early resignation as Archbishop. “These reports are false. He has not offered his resignation,” the archdiocese told the Dutch newspaper Katholiek Nieuwsblad on Wednesday. An archdiocesan spokesman added that there was no basis for such speculation. The audience attracted attention because Eijk has experienced health problems in recent months and didn't attend the consistories in January and June. The archdiocese also provided an update on the cardinal’s health. “It is known that Cardinal Eijk struggled with health problems last winter,” the spokesman said. His recovery had taken longer than initially hoped, but was now progressing well. According to the archdiocese, Eijk is expected to resume his duties fully on September 1. #newsKxqihmxlwe
He gets off a plane to save his life and keeps everyone else on the plane not letting them know he got off to protect himself......... ONLY! The situation in the East is not good at all. I will say no more about it. No one seems to listen or care. Not even all the warnings GOD has shown us. I will leave this video for those that do want to know.

About 14 years ago, when I belonged to a Fraternity of St Peter parish community, all couples planning to be married had to attend Novus Ordo classes in the neighboring city. No exceptions. If the Fathers did not cooperate, they were in danger of losing their faculties for performing marriages all-together. It's just the way it is in the FSSP. And, we all know that in most cases their main mission is to draw the faithful away from a nearby SSPX chapel. Every sermon must include some condemnation of the SSPX - it's mandatory and expected. At least those are the conclusions I've come to over the years. Parish life is so much more peaceful and sublime with the FSSPX, where the politics of Rome don't mess everything up.
Not Disturbing the Political Powers Behind France’s Euthanasia Law? Bishop Emeritus Dominique Rey told TribuneChrétienne.com of his one regret about Leo XIV’s September 25–28 visit to France: the Pope’s “very busy program” leaves no time to visit people at the end of life or palliative care units. Yet Leo XIV’s schedule includes several other meetings, including one with survivors of clergy sexual abuse. Meanwhile, France is close to legalizing euthanasia.

Ezekiel 16:1-15, 60, 63 “I will establish an everlasting covenant with you.” The Covenant is God’s Love. Matthew 19:3-12 God wants us to be happy, full of joy and love. Biblical texts: NAB-RE Normand Thomas.
Massachusetts has just eliminated any concrete limit on abortion after 24 weeks. From now on, the final say rests with the "physician's professional judgment." But be careful: don't call it a late-term abortion. That sounds too much like what it actually is. Better to call it "healthcare," add "reproductive rights" to the mix, and top it off with "progress." That way—using the right vocabulary—one can applaud without remorse the fact that a human being in the womb has fewer rights the closer it gets to being born.
A literal coven of witches. Yet , the gov will get the majority of the Catholic vote when she runs for reelection. That's the current state of the faith here.
Massachusetts acaba de eliminar cualquier límite concreto al aborto después de las 24 semanas. A partir de ahora, la última palabra la tiene el «criterio profesional del médico». Pero cuidado: no lo llames aborto tardío. Suena demasiado a lo que realmente es. Mejor llámalo «atención sanitaria», súmale «derechos reproductivos» y remátalo con «progreso». Así, con el vocabulario correcto, se puede aplaudir sin remordimientos que un ser humano en el vientre tenga menos derechos cuanto más cerca está de nacer.
Bishop Vicente de Paula Ferreira, 55, of Livramento de Nossa Senhora in Bahia, Brazil, criticized the consecration of dioceses to St. Michael the Archangel. In an August 8 social-media post, Bishop Ferreira wrote: “Are there theological justifications for consecration to St. Michael? One consecrates oneself to God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Isn’t the devil that is being fought rather imaginary? The greater exorcism should be of homophobia, femicide, racism, crimes against Indigenous peoples — of this legion of evils.” Ferreira’s comments came as dioceses across Brazil have been participating in “The Great Reconquest,” an initiative promoted by the Hesed Institute centered on devotion and consecration to St. Michael. According to ACI Digital, 34 Brazilian dioceses had been consecrated to St. Michael by August 11. #newsJjefxvmkpq
When a 'bishop' humiliates the Archangel Defender of God's Honor and is a supporter of the sin of Sodom, it means he is on the side of the fallen angels.
