“When we had our children, our ideas changed somewhat. We lived only for them. They were all our happiness , and we never found any except in them. In short, nothing was too difficult, and the world was no longer burden to us. For me, our children were a great compensation, so I wanted to have a lot of them in order to raise them for Heaven.” Saint Zélie Martin
Pope Leo to the cardinals at Christmas, channeling his inner Francis: “In addressing faith, liturgy, morality… there is a risk of rigidity or ideology.”

24.12.2025 EVIDENCE SHOWS FR. GEORGES DE LAIRE MADE A DOCTRINAL MISTAKE DURING MICHAEL VORIS CASE AND WHEN THE DECREE OF PROHIBITIONS WAS ISSUED AGAINST THE ST. BENEDICT CENTER, RICHMOND, NEW HAMPSHIRE, USA. Evidence now shows that Fr. Georges de Laire the Judicial Vicar in the Diocese of Manchester, USA made an objective error in the interpretation of Vatican Council II, the Catechisms, the baptism of desire, the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus etc when he issued a harsh Decree of Prohibitions against the traditionalists at the St. Benedict Center in Richmond, New Hampshire, USA. The proof is out. He has interpreted Vatican Council II irrationally with ‘the redbeing an exception for the blue’ while the religious community affirms the same Council but with ‘the rednot being an exception for the blue’. So the passages in red do not contradict the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus, blue and neither the Athanasius Creed, blue. They also do not contradict, in general, the …More
Leo XIV was moved to tears after his election: Monsignor Diego Ravelli, Master of Pontifical Ceremonies, recounts in a recent BBC documentary on the conclave the emotional moment following the election of Leo XIV. He accompanied the newly elected Pope into the Room of Tears, recalling: “At that moment it was just he and I, alone. The new Pope experiences a very strong emotion that can even lead to tears. I myself shed a few tears at that moment as well; it came naturally, because it is an intense moment.”
Mons. Diego Ravelli confirming that both he and Pope Leo XIV cried in the Room of Tears after being elected Pope.
English translation Paramony of the Nativity Paromony literally means permanence and used for the vigils for Christmas and Theophany where the faithful keep an all-night vigil in church after the Vespers and Saint Basil Divine Liturgy for the first Liturgical Office of the Feast at dawn. Troparion of the Paramony At that time, since Mary was of the House of David, she registered with the Venerable Joseph in Bethlehem. She was with Child, having conceived virginally. Her time was come and they could find no room in the inn, but the cave seemed a joyful palace to the Queen. Christ is born to renew the likeness that had been lost of old.
À cette époque, Marie, qui était de la maison de David, s'était enregistrée avec le vénérable Joseph à Bethléem. Elle était enceinte, ayant conçu de manière virginale. Son heure était venue et ils ne trouvèrent pas de place dans l'auberge, mais la grotte semblait être un palais joyeux pour la reine. Le Christ est né pour renouveler la ressemblance qui avait été perdue depuis longtemps.
If you have recently lost a loved one or are remembering those who used to sit at the table with you in years past, consider that the Child who is God, born in Bethlehem, came to die for us.

Leo XIV responded (video below): “I’m sorry I can’t comment in this circumstance here.” As became known yesterday, Archbishop Hicks picked a homosexual chancellor for his former Diocese of Joliet. While Pope Leo XIV declined to comment on matters concerning his own house and accountability, he spoke broadly about the responsibilities of others. Some quotes: Christmas ceasefire “I once again make this appeal to all people of good will: that, at least on the feast of the birth of the Saviour, one day of peace may be respected.” “Perhaps they will listen to us, and there will be 24 hours – one full day of peace throughout the world.” Ukraine “Among the things that cause me great sadness in these days is the fact that Russia has apparently refused the request for a Christmas truce.” Gaza “An hour ago I was in …More
