Journalists Raymond Arroyo and Robert Royal, and canon lawyer and priest Gerald Murray of New York talked on January 16 about the consistory of January 7-8. A short sequence, video below. Robert Royal commenting on Cardinal Grech’s contribution on synod: I think you hear that and you say, what in God’s name can that possibly mean? This is the gobbledygook we’ve been listening to for years about synodality and all this confusion. I mean, one of the things I’ve heard from sources is that many of these cardinals have said, "Look, we’re just confused about this. We’re tired of going over the same things again and again." These pronouncements keep coming out. When I read Cardinal Grech, I said to myself: This guy knows they haven’t gotten anything substantial done. You can try to preserve the illusion that there’s somehow a dynamic age of the Spirit underway, but it’s about to die. Raymond Arroyo: Well, he says there are good fruits here. He says fruits are blooming all over the place. …More
(Feast of St. Marcellus I, Pope and Martyr – January 16) Brothers and Sisters, There is a kind of suffering that comes from the world, and we expect it. The world has always resisted the light. But there is another kind of suffering – sharper, quieter, and harder to bear – when the wound comes from within, when rejection comes not from strangers, but from one’s own. Holy Scripture says of Our Lord: “He came unto his own, and his own received him not” (John 1:11). And on this day, January 16, the traditional calendar places before us a Pope – St. Marcellus I – whose witness is marked by that same sorrowful pattern: not merely opposed by the enemies of the Church, but resisted amid turmoil and rebellion within the household of faith. So the title today is simple. And heavy. Exiled by his own. Pause for a moment and let that phrase do its work. Because it is not only history. It is a pattern. It is a temptation. It is a warning. And it is also – mysteriously – a path that God has …More
“Leo XIV is responsible for it. In fact, he set the four-topic agenda for the meeting… I just hope they drop this middle school social science approach.” — Fr. Gerald Murray
In Yiwu, Zhejiang, participants in a sports event are indoctrinated against the “xie jiao” while cycling up the hills. by Qi Junzao The Yivu race: anti-xie-jiao propaganda is not far away. On December 14, the city of Yiwu in Zhejiang province hosted what might have been a perfectly ordinary sporting event: a cycling hill‑climb invitational. One thousand riders gathered at the scenic Shili Taohua Wu area to test their stamina on the winding Yan’kou Lake track. But in China, no public gathering is too innocent to escape the heavy hand of propaganda. Suddenly, the event was transformed into a “sports + anti-xie‑jiao extravaganza.” For readers unfamiliar with the term, “xie jiao” is often translated as “cults” or “evil cults,” but this is not accurate. It designates in China since the Middle Ages “organizations spreading heterodox teachings,” and the powers that be decide which teachings are “heterodox.” Today, it is a deliberately broad and elastic label wielded by the Chinese …

Watch independent news and do not make this as right or left, it;s a stupid way of thinking. There's so much lies being told in the news and this government is evil. Serves evil and does evil. I'm sorry for those who make this a thing about parties because they will also die eventually, they will only have two options, obey or disobey, if they obey out of fear of being killed, they will die later on, MARK MY WORDS, they will remember my words if they read this, in the near future when this happens, and they decide to blindly obey they will suffer a terrible death later on because the devil himself will make sure to give it to them, as he is already walking in the world waiting for his moment to appear as the savior and the one bringing the solution to all the problems. Those who think about parties with these events if they do not wake up THEY WILL CONDEMN THEMSELVES TO HELL AS THE BLOOD THIS GOVERNMENT IS CAUSING IN AND OUT THE U.S. WILL BE ALSO IN THEIR HANDS. More U.S. citizens will …More
"Consensus" at the Synod is like UN-talks - but in reality, critical voices were excluded during the Francis' pontificate - Fr Gerald Murray during the Arroyo-show.
Zerrt sie ins Scheinwerferlicht, damit jeder sie sehen kann! Die US-Einwanderungsbehörde ICE veröffentlicht jetzt Fotos der gefährlichsten kriminellen illegalen Einwanderer im sogenannten Schutzgebiet Minnesota. Das sind die Verbrecher, die die Linken seit Jahren beschützen und verhätscheln und weswegen gerade die gewalttätigen Ausschreitungen gegen ICE stattfinden. "In einer Pressemitteilung vom 14. Januar gab die US-Einwanderungsbehörde ICE bekannt, dass Operationen in Minnesota zur Festnahme mehrerer krimineller, illegal eingereister Ausländer geführt haben, die mutmaßlich „Gangmitglieder sind … viele von ihnen wegen Gewaltverbrechen verurteilt wurden“. Die Behörde betonte, dass diese Kriminellen zu denjenigen gehörten, die von Politikern wie Tim Walz und Jacob Frey, die sich für sogenannte Sanctuary-Programme einsetzen, geschützt würden. „Dies sind die schlimmsten kriminellen, illegal eingereisten Ausländer, gegen die ICE vorgeht“, heißt es in der Pressemitteilung. „Und genau …More
Das US-Justizministerium hat Ermittlungen gegen Beamte des Bundesstaates Minnesota, darunter Gouverneur Tim Walz und Bürgermeister Jacob Frey, wegen des Verdachts der Verschwörung zur Behinderung der bundesstaatlichen Einwanderungsbehörde eingeleitet. Im Mittelpunkt der Ermittlungen steht 18 U.S.C. § 372, ein Bundesgesetz, das Verschwörungen zur Behinderung von Bundesbeamten bei der Ausübung ihrer Pflichten durch „Gewalt, Einschüchterung oder Drohungen“ unter Strafe stellt, so ein US-Beamter. Ein weiterer Beamter erklärte, die Ermittlungen seien durch öffentliche Äußerungen von Walz und Frey zur kürzlich erfolgten Entsendung Tausender Beamter der Einwanderungs- und Zollbehörde (ICE) und der Grenzschutzbehörde (Border Patrol) in den Großraum Minneapolis ausgelöst worden. Fast 3.000 Bundesbeamte der Einwanderungsbehörde wurden im Rahmen einer großangelegten Operation zur Bekämpfung illegaler Einwanderung und mutmaßlichen Betrugs in Minnesota nach Minneapolis entsandt. Das Ministerium …More
A l'évidence, l'apparition de la Vierge Marie, le 17 janvier 1871, à Pontmain
A l'évidence, l'apparition de la Vierge Marie, le 17 janvier 1871, à Pontmain, alors que la guerre que Napoléon III a déclaré à la Prusse se solde par une série de défaites, motiverait qu'on citât Pontmain dans les manuels d'histoire. Ce documentaire passionnant, tourné à Pontmain et dans les environs, riche en témoignages et images d'archives, nous invite à comprendre pourquoi. Et pourquoi le sanctuaire de Pontmain, désormais de renommée internationale, est unique au monde. Sans doute est-ce parce que l'apparition de la Belle Dame à Pontmain présente un caractère particulier. En opposition à la plupart des apparitions de Marie, qui parle aux voyants - en général des enfants, comme à La Saiette ou Fatima - la Vierge s'est en effet adressée ce jour-là aux petits paroissiens de Pontmain par le biais de l'écriture. Une écriture en lettres d'or. « Priez, mes enfants, écrit la Reine du Ciel, mon fils se laisse toucher. Dieu vous exaucera en peu de temps ». Découvrons ensemble …More
Catholics gathered outside of Charlotte Diocese Pastoral Centre yesterday to pray in reparation after a ban on altar rails and kneelers went into effect in the Diocese
January 15 in Charlotte, in the cold and in front of the chancery, faithful gathered to pray for our diocese, for Bishop Martin, and in reparation for his liturgical directives.
homilyat the Mass celebrated at Martyr's Shrine, in Midland, Ontario, that has much to tell about truth and reconciliation in Canada with the Indigenous Peoples. We cannot forget the sacrifices made by the missionaries to evangelize. We must no interpret the past from a woke view. We cannot have truth and reconciliation without truth. The pope's words speak for themselves. Saint Paul also tells us how firmly he believed in the love of Christ and in its power to overcome all obstacles: "Nothing can come between us and the love of Christ." These are words which proceed from the very depths of his being and out of his personal experience as an Apostle. For this great missionary faced many trials and difficulties in his zealous efforts to proclaim the Gospel. To the Corinthians, he writes: "I have been in danger from rivers and in danger from brigands, in danger from my own people and in danger from pagans; in danger in the towns, in danger in the open country, danger at sea and danger from …
I have seen and testified January 18 - Second Sunday in Ordinary Time Dear brothers and sisters, John the Baptist, in the passage from the Gospel of St. John the Apostle that we’re going to listen to on Sunday, January 18, helps us better understand the beautiful mission of us Christians in the world. First of all, we must "see," with the "eyes" of faith, God's love for us in the Risen Jesus, present through His Holy Catholic Church, in His Word, in His Sacraments, especially in the Holy Eucharist. Regarding the encounter with God in His Word, Pope Leo in his catechesis on Wednesday, January 14, pointing to the DEI VERBUM, as one of the most beautiful and important documents of the Second Vatican Council, recalls that its purpose is to nourish the New Testament hope in the God who makes us children and calls us to become like Him even though in our fragile humanity. That's why the Pope invites us to cultivate friendship with God by listening to His Word and through liturgical, communal …More
