The Archdiocese of Olomouc, Czech Republic, has cancelled a homosexual “pilgrimage” scheduled for September 19, in Olomouc. Olomouc Archbishop Josef Nuzík, 60, was expected to preside at the Eucharist, giving the event direct institutional backing. The program also included a presentation by priest Cyril Havel on Building a Bridge, a book by American Jesuit James Martin; a video greeting from Martin; testimony from parents of alleged transgender-children; and a discussion of different Christian approaches to homosexual pastoral care. Organizers claimed a “wave of negative and hostile reactions” online, although they did not identify who was responsible or where these reactions were posted. Claiming they could no longer guarantee participants a safe environment, organizers cancelled the event on August 14. The event, Pouť na půli cesty (“Pilgrimage Halfway”), was to be the second pilgrimage for homosexuals, their relatives and other participants. It was organized by pastoral ministries …More
Ezekiel 34:1-11 “I will tend my flock.” God is the Shepherd of humanity. Matthew 20:1-16 “You too go into my vineyard, and I will give you what is just.” God is Just; he gives to each person equally: peace and joy, which are manifestations of his Love. We receive his Love 100%. It is up to us to welcome him. Biblical texts: NAB-RE Normand Thomas.
A mother in Ceuta has broken down in tears on Live TV: "My 16-year-old daughter has to go everywhere with her father or with me because the migrants devour her. I can't take it anymore. I want them all gone." The left-wing feminists are silent.

"In the Middle Ages, the Christian nations and princes, enlightened by the Church, had foreseen this great social peril. On the one hand, they knew that they had a duty to bear with the Jews, and that it was impossible for them to make away with them, since the prophecies announce that they will subsist until the end of the times, and that only then will they return to the true Faith. On the other hand, they knew that they could not live in peace and security if they granted unrestricted freedom to such a grasping, all-pervading race. It is a fact of experience that, wherever the Jews establish themselves and predominate, they turn into despots and ravaging tyrants. That is why, denying them civil and political rights, which they would have abused - and do abuse - wherever wealth has made them masters, Canon Law granted them tolerance. It watched over them so that they might live in peace and go quietly about their activities and their commercial affairs without harming the Christians …More
August 18 – Saint Helena | The Empress Who Searched for the Cross of Christ On August 18, the Church celebrates Saint Helena, mother of Emperor Constantine, Roman empress, great benefactor of Christians, and the pilgrim whose memory remains closely associated with the discovery of the True Cross of Christ. Born around 250, probably in Drepanum in Bithynia, Helena came from relatively humble origins. Her life changed when she became the companion of Constantius Chlorus, with whom she had a son: Constantine. When political ambitions led Constantius to separate from her, Helena experienced a long period away from public prominence. After Constantine's rise to power, however, she returned to an important position and eventually received the prestigious title of Augusta. After embracing Christianity as an adult, Helena used her wealth and influence in the service of her faith. She assisted the poor, prisoners, exiles, and people condemned to labor in the mines. Ancient accounts emphasize her …More
The sarcophagus was probably originally to be used for her son, the emperor Constantine. The sarcophagus was removed from the Mausoleum and ultimately moved to the Vatican museums in the 18th century. It is now in the Sala a Croce Greca of the Pio-Clementine Vatican Museum. Helena’s remains were moved to Santa Maria in Ara Coeli, a titularbasilica in Rome, located on the highest summit of the Campidoglio. This is still the designated church of the city council of Rome, which uses the ancient title of Senatus Populusque Romanus. In it, several relics from the Holy Sepulchre itself are also housed, next to the resting place of the woman who found it. Where are the remains of St. Helena of …
Leo XIV’s Peru Visit Prepared By Pachamama Offering: On 13–14 August, “Entrelazando Voces por la Dignidad,” a regional gathering of social organizations and Indigenous communities, took place in Cusco, Peru. Spanish-language outlets, including Vatican News, linked it to preparations for Pope Leo XIV’s November visit. Bishop Lizardo Estrada Herrera, auxiliary bishop of Cusco and CELAM secretary-general, inaugurated the gathering; Bishop Miguel Ángel Cadenas of Iquitos also attended. InfoVaticana video shows the event opening with an Andean offering to Pachamama/Mother Earth. Participants received coca leaves, performed guided breathing, blew three times on the leaves, and placed them with food offerings in bowls on the ground. Bishop Estrada is shown adding coca leaves to the offering. Monsignor Jordi Bertomeu, Vatican official overseeing the dissolution of the community Sodalitium, also took part, placing coca leaves in the offering.

The Mass in the traditional Roman rite plays “no separate or prominent role” in the Archdiocese of Cologne, "conservative" Cardinal Rainer Maria Woelki told Die-Tagespost.de on the occasion of his 70th birthday on August 17. “I see myself entirely at home in the tradition and teaching of the Second Vatican Council,” Cardinal Woelki said. The liturgical reform was “one of the essential reforms” of Vatican II. The cardinal expressed gratitude to the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter (FSSP), which celebrates the Roman liturgy at designated locations in the archdiocese. “I see this as an enrichment, because there have always been different rites in the Church,” he explained. His but: “The Novus Ordo Missae has a beauty and dignity that is in no way inferior to the Tridentine rite.” For Cardinal Woelki, the ars celebrandi is decisive. Liturgical abuses are not confined to the Novus Ordo, Cardinal Woelki believes. If Mass were merely "rattled off in ten to twelve minutes" - something that …More

They have forgotten what SIN is and they will eradicate ALL that reminds of SIN until they eventually declare that HELL does not exist. 1) Wisdom 2:12; Let us set a trap for the righteous man, who annoys us, opposes our ways, confronts us about our violations of the Law, and accuses us of failing to live up to our upbringing. 2) Wisdom 2:14–16; He is a reproach to our standards; his very presence is unbearable to us; he leads a life unlike anyone else’s, and his ways are strange. He regards us as bastards; he shuns our ways as if they were impurities; he proclaims the final fate of the righteous to be blessed and boasts of having God as his father. 3) Proverbs 6:16-17: "A lying tongue" and "a false witness who lies with every breath" among the seven things God detests. 4) Isaiah 5:20 Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who turn darkness into light and light into darkness, who turn bitter into sweet and sweet into bitter! 5) John 8:44 You belong to your father, the devil, and …More
1) Księga Mądrości 2:12; Zastawmy pułapkę na sprawiedliwego, który nas irytuje, sprzeciwia się naszym drogom, wytyka nam łamanie Prawa i oskarża nas o to, że nie postępujemy zgodnie z naszym wychowaniem. 2) Księga Mądrości 2:14–16; Jest on hańbą dla naszych norm; sama jego obecność jest dla nas nie do zniesienia; prowadzi życie inne niż wszyscy, a jego drogi są dziwne. Uważa nas za bękartów; unika naszych dróg, jakby były nieczystościami; głosi, że ostatecznym losem sprawiedliwych jest błogosławieństwo, i chwali się, że ma Boga za ojca. 3) Księga Przysłów 6:16–17: „Kłamliwy język” i „fałszywy świadek, który kłamie z każdym oddechem” należą do siedmiu rzeczy, których Bóg nienawidzi. 4) Księga Izajasza 5:20 Biada tym, którzy zło nazywają dobrem, a dobro złem, którzy zamieniają ciemność w światło, a światło w ciemność, którzy zamieniają gorycz w słodycz, a słodycz w gorycz! 5) Ewangelia według św.

During a secret Vatican consultation in 2016, six voters didn't simply doubt the Medjugorje apparitions but reportedly concluded that the devil was behind the phenomenon, Italian journalist David Murgia reported August 17 on IlSegnoDiGiona.com. Six participants in the confidential consultation of the Vatican's then-Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith concluded that Medjugorje could not be explained without the “original, direct and foundational intervention” of the Evil One. Three of the six were reportedly cardinals. In Murgia's account, they considered Medjugorje not a “Mariophany” - an appearance of Mary - but a “Satanophany.” Their proposed judgment was constat de praeternaturalitate maligna: essentially, a finding of malign preternatural origin. The six were part of a larger group of 33 Church figures who submitted opinions on Medjugorje in 2016. According to Murgia, 21 rejected a supernatural origin, nine favored it, and three remained undecided. The six who attributed the …More
RealRobert @Real_RobN And here it is… USAID more than doubled its spending on Brazil as soon as Bolsonaro won the 2018 election. This wasn’t because Brazil suddenly needed twice the aid; the money was spent on operations aimed at overthrowing the Brazilian government. The 2022 Brazilian election was stolen from Bolsonaro just as the 2020 U.S. election was stolen from Donald Trump and from Kari Lake in 2022, with USAID and the CIA involved in installing election-rigging machines that Brazilians didn’t even want. Just months before the election, CIA Director William Burns visited Brazil and warned Bolsonaro not to cast doubt on the voting machines or contest the election results — implying the newly installed machines were compromised. Additionally, Defense Secretary Lloyd “Woke” Austin — a DEI hire — visited Brazil and pressured the Chief of the Brazilian Armed Forces to accept the election results and support Lula, a convicted felon and self-proclaimed communist. How’s that for election …More
