NOVEMBER 23 2025 THE GOSPEL breski1 Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Luke 23,35-43. The rulers sneered at Jesus and said, "He saved others, let him save himself if he is the chosen one, the Messiah of God." Even the soldiers jeered at him. As they approached to offer him wine they called out, "If you are King of the Jews, save yourself." Above him there was an inscription that read, "This is the King of the Jews." Now one of the criminals hanging there reviled Jesus, saying, "Are you not the Messiah? Save yourself and us." The other, however, rebuking him, said in reply, "Have you no fear of God, for you are subject to the same condemnation? And indeed, we have been condemned justly, for the sentence we received corresponds to our crimes, but this man has done nothing criminal." Then he said, "Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom." He replied to him, "Amen, I say to you, today you will be with me in Paradise."

AfD party conference Essen 2015. Wikimedia Commons, Olaf Kosinsky/Skillshare.eu,CC-BY-SA-3.0-DE The cordon sanitaire against the Alternative for Germany party (AfD) looks to be crumbling among German industrialists, with two major associations reviewing their approach to the right-wingers. On November 16, the influential association of family enterprises Die Familienunternehmer (The Family Business Entrepreneurs, FU) announced it was ending its “ban” on any contact with AfD representatives. “At the core, our decision was about the interpretation of what the cordon sanitaire against AfD actually is and what its aims are,” FU president Marie-Christine Ostermann told newspaper Handelsblatt today. “For us the cordon sanitaire meant that we did not invite AfD MPs to our events out of principle. We have now ended this type of contact ban,” Ostermann said. She added, though, that her association was not keen to see AfD as a coalition partner in a future government. However, the …
2 Samuel 5: The Book of 2 Samuel, Catholic Bible Study, Fr. Tim Peters 2nd book of Samuel 5,1-3. In those days, all the tribes of Israel came to David in Hebron and said: "Here we are, your bone and your flesh. In days past, when Saul was our king, it was you who led the Israelites out and brought them back. And the LORD said to you, 'You shall shepherd my people Israel and shall be commander of Israel.'"

Saints of the Day The Seven Sons of St. Felicitas, Martyrs July 10 Homily on Blessed Felicitas: Consider, dear brothers, this man's heart in a woman's body. Before death she stood without fear. She feared to lose the light of the truth in her sons if she kept them alive. St Felicitas encouraged each son to die well Let none of you imagine, dear brothers, that seeing her sons die, the heart of this mother did not vibrate with natural tenderness. Her sons, whom she knew to be her own flesh, she could not but see them die with pain, but she had within her a strong enough love to overcome the pain of flesh. Felicitas loved her sons as nature intended, but for the sake of the heavenly fatherland, she wished that those whom she loved should die, and even in her presence. It was she who felt their wounds, but it was she who multiplied herself, so to speak, in the person of the sons who preceded her to the Kingdom. With reason I call this woman more than a martyr, for in her ardor she died in …

In a blog post published on his personal website this week, 93-year-old retired Chinese Cardinal Joseph Zen has issued yet another sharp critique of the Synod on Synodality and the late Pope Francis. Francis left behind “chaos and division,” His Eminence said. “Our greatest hope is that Pope Leo will unite the Church on the foundation of truth, rallying us all to the mission of evangelization. We must offer our prayers and sacrifices for Pope Leo.” Zen has not been shy about sharing concerns about the synodal process. After Francis’ death, His Eminence warned electors ahead of the conclave that the Church faces a “matter of life and death” as she grapples with it. In a commentary published in February 2024, His Eminence said it was his hope that “this Synod on ‘Synodality’ can be successfully concluded.” In his commentary this week, Zen worried that the Catholic Church has “become like the Anglican Church” and that it is seemingly “committing suicide by assimilating with” …
