Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Matthew 14,22-33. After he had fed the people, Jesus made the disciples get into the boat and precede him to the other side of the sea, while he dismissed the crowds. After doing so, he went up on the mountain by himself to pray. When it was evening he was there alone. Meanwhile the boat, already a few miles offshore, was being tossed about by the waves, for the wind was against it. During the fourth watch of the night, he came toward them, walking on the sea. When the disciples saw him walking on the sea they were terrified. "It is a ghost," they said, and they cried out in fear. At once (Jesus) spoke to them, "Take courage, it is I; do not be afraid." Peter said to him in reply, "Lord, if it is you, command me to come to you on the water." He said, "Come." Peter got out of the boat and began to walk on the water toward Jesus. But when he saw how (strong) the wind was he became frightened; and, beginning to sink, he cried out, "Lord, save me!" …More
Aus dem Heiligen Evangelium nach Matthäus - Mt 14,22-33. Nachdem Jesus die Menge gespeist hatte, drängte er die Jünger, ins Boot zu steigen und an das andere Ufer vorauszufahren. Inzwischen wollte er die Leute nach Hause schicken. Nachdem er sie weggeschickt hatte, stieg er auf einen Berg, um für sich allein zu beten. Als es Abend wurde, war er allein dort. Das Boot aber war schon viele Stadien vom Land entfernt und wurde von den Wellen hin und her geworfen; denn sie hatten Gegenwind. In der vierten Nachtwache kam er zu ihnen; er ging auf dem See. Als ihn die Jünger über den See kommen sahen, erschraken sie, weil sie meinten, es sei ein Gespenst, und sie schrien vor Angst. Doch sogleich sprach Jesus zu ihnen und sagte: Habt Vertrauen, ich bin es; fürchtet euch nicht! Petrus erwiderte ihm und sagte: Herr, wenn du es bist, so befiehl, dass ich auf dem Wasser zu dir komme! Jesus sagte: Komm! Da stieg Petrus aus dem Boot und kam über das Wasser zu Jesus. Als er aber den heftigen Wind bemerkte …More
Mexican Bishop Hops Left and Right Before the Altar: Bishop José Leopoldo González González, 71, of San Juan de los Lagos, Jalisco, Mexico, hopped and danced in liturgical vestments, including his mitre, during Emaús 2026. The diocesan gathering brought together more than 5,000 young Catholics on 23–24 May in San Miguel el Alto, Jalisco. González explained that a young man had told him the dance was simple—“one step to the right and another to the left” - and joked that he had “fallen into the trap.”
During Emaús 2026 in San Miguel el Alto, Bishop José Leopoldo González González drew attention for his energetic participation with young people during the activities and Mass.
– Folha de S. Paulo, June 4, 1984 – by Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira Our great, beautiful, and beloved Brazil. These are just a few of the adjectives that — though deserved — have become worn out from constant use. Far more accurate and genuine to our reality would be to describe this country as indecipherable, for it truly is in more than one way. Today, I will focus on just one of those ways. Imagine, dear reader, a farmer living with his family in a spacious house, surrounded by the wide-open spaces that make up the rural property. Wide indeed, stretching as far as the eye can see. It so happens that the family has grown considerably, and there is no longer enough room in the big house for the farmer’s offspring. Quarrels erupt on every side. Some wish to enlarge the cramped corners they occupy and, to justify this, argue that the house is, in a sense, a common asset belonging to the entire family. They bellow, with the metallic insistence of busybodies, a handful of clichés about the …More
Stop Negotiating and Get the Job Done: American approaches to war for the last 70 years have been characterized by a normalcy bias that war conduct should be guided by the goal of reaching negotiated compromise outcomes rather than achieving victory and total defeat of the enemy.
19th Sunday – OT – A - Second Reading - Romans 9:1–5 - I could wish that I were accursed Letter to the Romans 9,1-5. Brothers and Sisters: I speak the truth in Christ, I do not lie; my conscience joins with the holy Spirit in bearing me witness that I have great sorrow and constant anguish in my heart. For I could wish that I myself were accursed and separated from Christ for the sake of my brothers, my kin according to the flesh. They are Israelites; theirs the adoption, the glory, the covenants, the giving of the law, the worship, and the promises; theirs the patriarchs, and from them, according to the flesh, is the Messiah. God who is over all be blessed forever. Amen. denicemay
Brief des Apostels Paulus an die Römer 9,1-5. Schwestern und Brüder! Ich sage in Christus die Wahrheit und lüge nicht und mein Gewissen bezeugt es mir im Heiligen Geist: Ich bin voll Trauer, unablässig leidet mein Herz. Ja, ich wünschte selbst verflucht zu sein, von Christus getrennt, um meiner Brüder willen, die der Abstammung nach mit mir verbunden sind. Sie sind Israeliten; ihnen gehören die Sohnschaft, die Herrlichkeit und die Bundesschlüsse; ihnen ist das Gesetz gegeben, der Gottesdienst und die Verheißungen; ihnen gehören die Väter und ihnen entstammt der Christus dem Fleische nach. Gott, der über allem ist, er sei gepriesen in Ewigkeit. Amen.
I will be sharing my small library of stories in honor of the Hiroshima and Nagasaki martyrs of Japan in honor of their death and ascent into heaven on August 6th and 9th, 1945.
Nagasaki was specifically targeted by the US because it was the epicenter of Catholicism in Japan and a threat to their satanic nwo. Our brothers and sisters in Christ are martyrs because of that fact. Let us pray to them and ask for their protection in this trying time!
Thank you for this. I believe it and it is a shame the US did not agree to the Japanese surrender earlier (there would have been no North Korea, and China may have remained free, plus all those lives would have been spared).

' The devices are proving transformative for people with disabilities, but the ability to film strangers without their knowledge is raising concerns. Apart from a small, red recording light on the frame of some models, many people may not realise they’re being filmed. Experts warn the new wave of AI technology could be smart glasses with built-in facial recognition, which could access personal information and increase the risk of identity theft.'
An unusual controversy has erupted in the Church in Angola after an anonymous letter sent to the Apostolic Nunciature in Luanda called for the next bishop of Mbanza Kongo to be white, reports the Substack.com-account The Pillar (August 7). The authors argue that the historic diocese has not developed sufficiently under its three Angolan bishops, while insisting the request is not racially motivated. The Diocese of Mbanza Kongo has rejected the suggestion that the letter represents its faithful. Angolan Catholic commentator Paulo Viana believes the dispute may actually be about dissatisfaction with Bishop Vicente Carlos Kiaziku, whose health problems have kept him away for extended periods, and the battle over his eventual successor. Viana suggests the letter could be intended to derail the possible appointment of Bishop António Lungieki Bengui, auxiliary bishop of Luanda. The controversy is especially striking in Mbanza Kongo, the cradle of Christianity in Angola and home of Henrique of …More

On August 6, Pope Leo XIV appointed 15 new consultors to the Dicastery for Religious, headed by Prefect Sr Simona Brambilla. The new consultors comprise two bishops (Alfonso Vincenzo Amarante and Kevin Otieno Mwandha), five priests, including one abbot (Ignasi Fossas, Damián Astigueta, Maurizio Bevilacqua, Benjamin Earl and Flavien Mambueni), two religious brothers (Antoine Kazindu and Emili Turú), and six religious sisters (Chiara Lorenzato, Maria Nirmalini, María Rosaura González Casas, Mary Lembo, Patricia Murray and Maria do Disterro Rocha Santos). Leo XIV has again appointed liberal, synodal figures, illustrated by these four personnel choices. Less Uniformity in Liturgy, More Creativity Indian Sister Maria Nirmalini, A.C. was a member of the Synod on Synodality (2023) and hoped for “liturgical reform, particularly of the Mass with less emphasis on uniformity and more on creativity.” In the same VaticanNews.va interview she demanded “inclusion of women in all leadership/decision …More
Sadly, most Catholics are now "Conciliar Catholics." And since Conciliarism is an ever-evolving religion its tenets are constantly being updated. But make no mistake, Conciliarism is Satanically driven and Satan's ultimate goal is to destroy the Catholic Church. Faithful Catholics know that will never happen, but the authentic Catholic Church will suffer greatly as Rome moves further away from the truth through Synodality. And while the role of the SSPX is still unclear to many, all should recognize that it is the only priestly organization celebrating the TLM that adheres exclusively to the authentic teachings that pre-dated Vatican II. The most revealing clue as to its legitimacy, however, is that the SSPX is the only priestly organization that the Conciliarists in Rome regularly attack and work to destroy. There are relatively few Catholics who assist at the SSPX Masses, but as Jesus told us, when He returns He expects to find very few who have not loss their faith.
Bishop Michael Sis of San Angelo, West Texas, will expand access to the traditional Latin Mass with a new monthly celebration at St. Ann’s Catholic Church in Midland, beginning August 30. Rev. Ryan Rojo, the diocese’s Vocations Director and Director of Seminarians, announced the development on X.com. The Mass will be celebrated on the last Sunday of each month at 3 p.m. Rev. Rojo promised that this is “just a beginning”: “The diocese discerns a path forward to provide for our people.” He added that other diocesan priests will learn to celebrate the Roman rite in the coming weeks and months. The existing weekly Traditional Latin Mass at St. Margaret of Scotland Church in San Angelo will continue unchanged. #newsIwnpjbusjk
