Fr William Graham of the Diocese of Duluth, Minnesota was falsely accused and cast out in 2016 after his bishop deemed a nearly 40-year-old claim to be “credible.” By Fr William Graham with an Introduction by Fr Gordon MacRae. From Fr Gordon MacRae: Some of our readers might have passed over my recent post, “Pop Stars and Priests: Michael Jackson and the Credible Standard.” Much more than the strange story of Michael Jackson, that post was really about the much stranger story of Catholic priests falsely accused. Commenter James Anderson wrote of it, “This article is the best ever on your false conviction.” The matter of falsely accused Catholic priests has received some increased attention of late, but not nearly enough to counter the vast media bias that grew and festered through news of the scandal of sexual abuse in the Catholic priesthood since the moral panic of 2002. In my post linked above, I wrote of a development in my diocese, the Diocese of Manchester, New Hampshire. A press …More

Sacred Heart: The Son of God has a human heart! The Most Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary are two relatively recent liturgical memories, but they are grounded in the Scriptures and the Tradition of the Church. With Br. Claudio Bottini, we invite you to turn your gaze to Calvary to explore through scripture and the teaching of the Magisterium, the graces that flow from the Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary. "The heart in the Bible indicates the person and the seat of the intimate being of the person, of their feelings, desires, will, decisions. And here on Calvary the heart of Christ was given to us, it was manifested when the soldier wounded the heart of Christ. From his heart, from which flowed blood and water - the symbols of the sacraments of the Church - the Church was born." Br CLAUDIO BOTTINI, ofm - Studium Biblicum Franciscanum cmc

June 8 - Saint Medard of Noyon Son of Nectardus, a Frankish noble, and Protagia, Gallo-Roman nobility. Brother of Saint Gildardus, Bishop of Rouen, France. Pious youth and excellent student, educated at Saint-Quentin. Often accompanied his father on business to Vermand, France and to Tournai, Belgium, and frequented the schools there. Ordained at age 33. Reluctant bishop of Vermand in 530; in 531, he moved his see to Noyon, France, which was further from border clashes. Bishop of Tournai in 532; the union of the two dioceses lasted until 1146. Gave the veil to QueenSaintRadegunde. Medardus was one of the most honoured bishops of his time, his memory has always been venerated in northern France, and he soon became the hero of numerous legends. Each year on his memorial the Rosiere is awarded to the young girl who has been judged the most virtuous and exemplary in the region of Salency, France; she is escorted by 12 boys and 12 girls to the church, …More

June 8 Saint Medard. by irapuato on June 8, 2014 Saint Medardus (or St Medard) (FrenchMédard or Méard) (c. 457 – c. 545) was the Bishop of Vermandois who removed the seat of the diocese to Noyon. St Medardus was born at Salency, Oise, in Picardy. His father, Nectaridus, was a noble of Frankish origin, while his mother Protagia was Gallo-Roman. The Roman Martyrology includes the fanciful tale that Saint Gildard, Bishop of Rouen, was his brother, "born on the same day, consecrated bishops on the same day, and on the same day withdrawn from this life." A pious fiction links his childhood to his future bishoprics: "He often accompanied his father on business to Vermand and Tournai, where he frequented the schools, carefully avoiding all worldly dissipation". At the death in 530 of his patron in the Church, Bishop Alomer, when Medard was 33, he was chosen to succeed him as bishop of Vermand due to his exemplary piety and his knowledge, considerable for that time. Despite …More

At 2pm on 6 June, several representatives of the papal commissioner arrived at the convent of the Poor Clare sisters in Belorado, Archdiocese of Burgos, Spain. In May, the nuns announced that they had joined a sedevacantist pseudo-bishop. The delegation consisted of Sister Carmen Ruiz, Secretary of the Federation of Poor Clares of Our Lady of Aránzazu, Don Rodrigo Sáiz, representative of the Pontifical Commissioner, Don Carlos Azcona, Notary of the Ecclesiastical Tribunal, accompanied by the Notary María Rosario Garrido. First, Sister Belén received the visitors at the revolving window where the person opposite cannot be seen. Then, Sister Sión received them in a small room. They asked to speak to the ex-abbotess, Sister Isabel, who informed them through Sister Belén that, with the exception of the notary, the other visitors were "not welcome" and should leave the convent. She warned that she would call the police if they refused. When they did, she called the police. The notary, María …More

In September 2023 Claire Best wrote an article about how corruption drove the case against Fr Gordon MacRae in 1994 and St Paul’s School student Owen Labrie in 2014. May 29, 2024 By Claire Best The first civil lawsuit in over a thousand cases of alleged child sexual assault and other abuse brought by victims of the New Hampshire Youth Detention Center against the state has just concluded. A civil jury awarded David Meehan, the plaintiff, $38 million dollars. The attorney for the State, Brandon Chase for DCYF — the NH Division for Children, Youth and Families — quickly responded that it was only going to pay out $475,000 due to a cap for each incident and since only one box was filled by the jury, the State has interpreted that as only one incident. Over the weekend, the attorneys for David Meehan filed a motion for an emergency hearing with the judge regarding the discrepancy. They included emails from jurors who had contacted them after the jurors saw the state’s announcement about the …More

Father Jean-François Laco of Sainte-Suzanne, a commune in Réunion, a French overseas department near Madagaskar, preached on Pentecost (May 19) against false religions. Laco is also a composer and singer. "I don't believe in that fat, sitting man, the one with a nice belly, who is called Buddha", he preached saying that Buddha statues should not be used for decoration: "That doesn't bring peace, but rather disorder." The video reportedly received 180,000 views and allegedly hundreds of [bot] comments. Réunion has 885,700 people and Laco spoke in a kind of French that can only be understood by locals which means that over 20% of the population has seen the video which is unlikely. The priest deleted the video but copies of it remained available in the internet. At the behest of his bishop, he expressed his regret using the usual formulas like "parts of the sermon had been excerpted" and "words taken out of the context". "If you watch the video of the homily in its entirety, you'll think …More

Monsignor Jorge García Cuerva, Archbishop of Buenos Aires, Argentina, has turned his cathedral into a snack bar. There are many soup kitchens in the centre of Buenos Aires that feed hundreds of people every night. So there is no need for a snack bar in the cathedral. Nor would it make sense to turn a soup kitchen into a cathedral, as this would deprive the soup kitchen's clients of their food. After different versions of the event circulated online, the Archdiocese of Buenos Aires issued a statement: "We would like to inform you that in the framework of the Week of Charity, on the eve of the annual collection for 'Caritas', last Tuesday, June 4, a meeting of pastoral agents who accompany people in street situations was held in the Metropolitan Cathedral." In the early days of the Church, when the widows of Greek-speaking Jews were overlooked in the daily distribution of food, the Twelve Apostles appointed deacons to look after the poor. They argued that "it is not desirable that we should …More

The controversial Archbishop of Algiers, French-born Jean-Paul Vesco, 62, has again said that he wants invalidly ordained deaconesses (La-Croix.com, 28 May). He is relying on the strategy of the boiled frog: "What seemed inconceivable yesterday, such as the appointment of women to the highest positions in the Roman Curia, has become natural today. Likewise, what seems unimaginable today will become natural tomorrow". Even more unimaginable until yesterday was also the current decadence of the Roman Curia. Jean-Paul Vesco believes that Francis' pontificate has "moved lines that were difficult to imagine being moved" when it comes to "the place of women" in the life of the Church. In the light of the Gospel, "the place of women in the Church" does not depend on workplaces in the Curia. Regarding Francis' homosexual propaganda text 'Fiducia supplicans', Jean-Paul Vesco said it showed "the extreme difficulty of having a single audible word on all continents, given the diversity of societies …More

St Paul's Parish in Lexington, Diocese of Lexington, Kentucky - the diocese is led by homosexual activist John Stowe - is offering scheduled [pseudo-] blessings for homosexual concubines. Scheduled blessings are not "spontaneous blessings" as required by Fiducia supplicans, but the hypocrisy of this text is that it says one thing but expects and encourages people to go all the way. The parish writes on its website: "Same-sex couples wishing to receive a [pseudo] blessing should contact Father Richard" at the phone number or email provided. CatholicVote.org (4 June) asked the priest the naive question of how such appointments are compatible with "Fiducia supplicans", but didn't get a reply from the "all are welcome" priest. The parish website also features a blasphemous prayer to "Our Mother of Pride" (sic) next to a picture of Our Lady wrapped in a homosexual flag. John Stowe recently accepted a woman as a "male hermit". Stowe is particularly fond of making fun of God's sixth commandment. …More

The fruits of Jorge and Tucho!!! Matthew 7:15-20 Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition 15 Beware of false prophets, who come to you in the clothing of sheep, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. 16By their fruits you shall know them. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? 17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit, and the evil tree bringeth forth evil fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can an evil tree bring forth good fruit. 19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit, shall be cut down, and shall be cast into the fire. 20Wherefore by their fruits you shall know them.
