Acts of the Apostles 16,11-15. We set sail from Troas, making a straight run for Samothrace, and on the next day to Neapolis, and from there to Philippi, a leading city in that district of Macedonia and a Roman colony. We spent some time in that city. On the sabbath we went outside the city gate along the river where we thought there would be a place of prayer. We sat and spoke with the women who had gathered there. One of them, a woman named Lydia, a dealer in purple cloth, from the city of Thyatira, a worshiper of God, listened, and the Lord opened her heart to pay attention to what Paul was saying. After she and her household had been baptized, she offered us an invitation, "If you consider me a believer in the Lord, come and stay at my home," and she prevailed on us. shareyourcatholicfaith
Leo Affirms Francis’ Blessing Of Gay Couples Saint Catherine of Siena: In wicked ministers, the sin against nature (homosexuality) reigns. This sin is repulsive even to demons. "(...) those unhappy men do not only check such tendency, but that they do something much worse and they fall in the vice against the nature. They are blind and stupid, whose confused intelligence does not perceive the vileness in which they live. I displease this last sin, because I am the Eternal Purity. It is to Me so abominable that by its cause I made disappear five cities. (cf. Genesis 19, 24). My Justice is not able to support it more. That sin, nevertheless, does not only dislike to Me. It is even unbearable to the demons, who are had by patterns by those unfortunate ministers. The demons do not tolerate that sin. They do not wish the virtue, but by his angelical origin, they challenge to see so stinking vice. They throw the poisoned arrows of lust, but they turn round at the moment at which the sin is …More
The German apostate Reinhard Marx, a promoter of sodomy, participated in the invalid conclaves of 2013 and 2025—those in which the gay mafia elected Bergoglio and Prevost, respectively.
"St. Vincent Ferrer taught that the first appearance after the Resurrection was to the Blessed Virgin Mary. St. Ambrose, St. Anselm, St. Albert the Great, and St. Ignatius of Loyola also supported this belief. They explained that Jesus first appeared not to convince doubters, but to comfort the one who suffered most with Him at Calvary."
This isn't something new. The media is still trying to traumatize the people of the world. About 50 years ago there was quite an outbreak of hantavirus in the Southwest US - primarily New Mexico, if I remember correctly. The little white-footed field mice that carry it are so cute, but everyone had to learn to keep mice out of garages, etc. because of the risk of inhaling the dust. That's my view point - obviously not scientific, but also not AI generated either.
A new advertisement for a French perfume brand appeared on the LED screens covering the façade and apse of Rome’s Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore. This prompted a group of residents and worshippers from the Monti district to send a protest letter to Cardinal Rolandas Makrickas, criticising what they described as the “commercialisation” of the historic basilica. The screens were installed during restoration works that began in late 2024. Back then, Vatican officials said the advertising revenue helps cover renovation costs ahead of the Jubilee.
La pubblicità di un noto profumo francese sulla facciata della basilica patriarcale di Santa Maria Maggiore è stata la goccia che ha fatto di nuovo traboccare il vaso facendo insorgere un gruppo di fedeli del quartiere Monti che, alquanto sbigotti, hanno inviato una lettera di protesta al cardinale arciprete Rolandas Mackrikas. «In quanto membri del Comitato cittadino del Rione Monti e residenti del Rione, vi scriviamo per esprimervi il nostro profondo sgomento per i due enormi cartelloni pubblicitari luminosi sulla facciata e sull’abside della veneranda Basilica». Il gruppo di fedeli si chiede se sia necessario ricorrere a pubblicità tanto appariscenti che nulla hanno a che fare con l'atmosfera e il luogo sacro. Dal volto di Sinner che fa da testimonial ad una marca di caffè, piuttosto che all'ultimo modello di uno smartphone, fino a un profumo. Il tema che viene sollevato è la evidente “mercificazione” di Santa Maria Maggiore...

This Is What Happened When Trump Abandoned the World’s Poorest Children May 9, 2026 By Nicholas Kristof Opinion Columnist nytimes.com/2026/05/09/opinion/foreign-aid-cuts.h… A year after some of the world’s richest men cut aid for the world’s poorest children, they’re trying to roll out a new public relations narrative: Aid continues! We’re saving lives from AIDS! Anyway, aid never really worked, so we’re focused on trade! Building opportunities for American companies while saving babies! As Jeremy Lewin, the acting under secretary of state for foreign assistance, put it: “Contrary to false media narratives, the data shows that President Trump’s foreign assistance review maintained and improved frontline lifesaving programs, while reducing NGO bloat and costs.” “False media narratives” may refer to my reporting from a series of African countries on children dying as a result of the Trump cuts. Let’s first concede a few points. American humanitarian aid was never great at …More

It took Russia to bring help to them. France came, looked around and left. They asked Russia for help and President Putin not only sent them weapons and aid but men to teach them how to defend themselves. Where was the rest of the world? Looking the other way and laughing at them. That's a fact that those in Africa still talk about today! And why many countries raise Russian flags on stores and homes and roadways. Not just one African nation but many. Ask Russia for help and she will be there, no matter who you are. facts speak for themselves!
Monasteries and spiritual centers in Spain are increasingly hosting yoga congresses and New Age-inspired events. The latest controversy emerged at the Castle of Javier in Navarra - the birthplace of St. Francis Xavier and a Jesuit-run spiritual center. It hosted the XII Iberian Yoga Congress organized by the Spanish Yoga Federation (FEYS) from May 1–3. Around 250 participants attended workshops featuring mantra concerts, Eastern spirituality, meditation, and yoga practices. Images show participants meditating before Jesus Christ placed alongside figures of Buddha and Krishna. Activities reportedly included sessions titled “Awakening of the Soul,” “Essene Mantras,” and “108 Sun Salutations.” According to InfoVaticana, similar gatherings have also been held at Catholic properties such as the Marist monastery of Las Avellanas, the Franciscan sanctuary of Aránzazu, and the Teresian-Sanjuanist International Center in Ávila. At the same time, Spain continues to experience a sharp decline …More
Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint John 15,26-27.16,1-4a. Jesus said to his disciples: "When the Advocate comes whom I will send you from the Father, the Spirit of truth that proceeds from the Father, he will testify to me. And you also testify, because you have been with me from the beginning. I have told you this so that you may not fall away. They will expel you from the synagogues; in fact, the hour is coming when everyone who kills you will think he is offering worship to God. They will do this because they have not known either the Father or me. I have told you this so that when their hour comes you may remember that I told you."
Aus dem Heiligen Evangelium nach Johannes - Joh 15,26-27.16,1-4a. In jener Zeit sprach Jesus zu seinen Jüngern: Wenn der Beistand kommt, den ich euch vom Vater aus senden werde, der Geist der Wahrheit, der vom Vater ausgeht, dann wird er Zeugnis für mich ablegen. Und auch ihr legt Zeugnis ab, weil ihr von Anfang an bei mir seid. Das habe ich euch gesagt, damit ihr keinen Anstoß nehmt. Sie werden euch aus der Synagoge ausstoßen, ja es kommt die Stunde, in der jeder, der euch tötet, meint, Gott einen heiligen Dienst zu leisten. Das werden sie tun, weil sie weder den Vater noch mich erkannt haben. Ich habe es euch aber gesagt, damit ihr euch, wenn die Stunde kommt, daran erinnert, dass ich es euch gesagt habe. angelyelina
[Saint Louis-Marie Grignion de Montfort; XVII-XVIII Century AD; born: Montfort-sur-Meu, France/died: Saint-Laurent-sur-Sevre, France; (aged 43); Founder; Spiritual Writer] 3. The interior constituents of this consecration and its spirit To Jesus through Mary 43. I have already said that this devotion consists in performing all our actions with Mary, in Mary, through Mary, and for Mary. 44. It is not enough to give ourselves just once as a slave to Jesus through Mary; nor is it enough to renew that consecration once a month or once a week. That alone would make it just a passing devotion and would not raise the soul to the level of holiness which it is capable of reaching. It is easy to enrol in a confraternity; easy to undertake this devotion, and say every day the few vocal prayers prescribed. The chief difficulty is to enter into its spirit, which requires an interior dependence on Mary, and effectively becoming her slave and the slave of Jesus through her. I have met many people who …More

War in Iran. Key Developments, April 24: A “Neither Peace Nor War” Stalemate. Iran Holds All the Cards—the U.S. Is Digging Its Own Grave The war in the Middle East has entered a “neither peace nor war” phase, but this is precisely where the U.S. seems to have miscalculated: by maintaining the blockade, they are themselves provoking a rise in oil prices, putting pressure on their own economy, and strengthening Iran’s role as the controller of key routes. Trump’s “unwavering” stance isn’t working; all the trump cards are in Iran’s hands—and the US is digging its own grave. The “neither peace nor war” mode In the Middle East, the conflict between the US and Iran has entered a “neither peace nor war” phase. According to military blogger Yuri Podolyaka’s morning briefing, the situation is as follows: the formal two-week ceasefire announced by Donald Trump on April 8 was supposed to end on the 22nd, but the U.S. president effectively extended it without specifying a concrete timeframe …More
Israel is taking out the last remaining residential towers in Gaza to make it impossible for the remaining Palestinians to live there and turning them into refugees.
One of the most terrifying attacks carried out by Israel, where it completely destroyed the Mashteha Tower within a matter of seconds, as it is considered one of the largest and most beautiful towers in Gaza, and houses thousands of families living in it, despite the thousands of tents that were located on every side of this tower, aircraft launched no less than 6 deadly missiles that resulted in thousands of lethal shrapnel fragments, which led to the destruction of thousands of tents that were the only shelter for the families. This is not just a war, this is genocide.
It is fake because the intent is to show the evil Jews destroying the housing for good Palestinian people,the building was obviously in need of demolition to make the area safe even for the Arabs. I am no friend of the Jew nor am I his enemy , but I think it is unfair that so many have a knee jerk reaction and blame nearly everything on Zionism etc. the real problem in the world is so many turning their backs to God regardless of race. Is Biden,Harris Pelosi really any better than the Netin what ever his name is? The scariest thing in this world today is a pope and hierarchy in the Catholic Church who are far from being Catholic. They are leading more people to hell than all the Jews everywhere.
