Five Closures in Three Months: Society of Jesus in Spain in Decline

The Society of Jesus is undergoing a new process of reorganization in Spain marked by the decrease in the number of religious and the scarcity of vocations. In just three months, the Jesuits have announced the closure of five communities and stable works in different parts of the country, a decision that the order itself attributes to the impossibility of maintaining its presence with the current personnel. The most symbolic case has been that of Murcia, where on June 16 an uninterrupted presence of almost five centuries came to an end. According to El Debate, the provincial of Spain, Father Enric Puiggròs SJ, signed together with the bishop of Cartagena, Mons. José Manuel Lorca Planes, the agreement that ends the stable Jesuit community in the city, acknowledging that “for now” it is no longer possible to maintain a religious community there. The first Jesuits arrived in Murcia in 1555, barely fifteen years after the founding of the Society of Jesus by St. Ignatius of Loyola and still …

Trudeau Appears in Katy Perry’s Video Watch It Burn: Katy Perry’s new Watch It Burn promo briefly features former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in the background. The music video includes scenes inside a church, with Perry shown sitting in a church pew. The imagery, combined with the lyric 'watch it burn', is reminiscent of the wave of church arsons in Canada during Trudeau's time in office. Since 2021, more than 120 churches have been damaged by arson or vandalism.

Former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau appeared in the background of a promotional video for girlfriend Katy Perry’s latest music video titled “Watch It Burn” that has led to speculation of a connection to churches burning down in Canada over the past five years.

Cardinal Sarah: Gender ideology and radical Islam are ‘apocalyptic beasts’

The rise of radical Islam and the relentless spread of gender ideology are two unlikely allies in the attack upon the sanctity of life and God, according to one prominent Vatican cardinal. Both “gender ideology and Islamic fundamentalism” are “apocalyptic beasts” which seek to destroy the family, humanity and the image of God, Cardinal Robert Sarah said this week at the European Parliament. “The crisis of the Church in the West and the crisis of the West itself are, at heart, one and the same crisis,” attested the cardinal during an address he gave at the European Parliament on Wednesday afternoon. “It is because the Church in many European nations has lost its identity, its prophetic voice, that the West itself has lost the meaning of its own civilisation.”

"What is the story of Our Lady of Mount Carmel?"

Today the liturgy celebrates the optional memorial of Our Lady of Mount Carmel. In the Collect we pray: "May the venerable intercession of the glorious Virgin Mary come to our aid, O Lord, so that fortified by her protection, we may reach the mountain which is Christ." Christ is our total hope and salvation. What is the story of Our Lady of Mount Carmel? Mount Carmel has been a place of prayer and closeness to God since the time of the prophet Elijah in the 10th century before Christ (cf. 1 Kings 18:41ff). It was also the site where Elijah’s prayer brought an end to the drought and famine that had befallen Israel. Because of this, the Carmelites consider Elijah one of their spiritual fathers. The spiritual tradition continued with Christian hermits living on the mountain in persistent prayer. In the 12th century, the Order of the Brothers of the Blessed Virgin Mary of Mount Carmel was officially founded. In the 13th century, during a time of persecution, the Blessed Virgin Mary appeared …

“Whosoever dies clothed in this [Scapular] shall never suffer eternal fire. It shall be a sign of salvation, a protection in danger, a pledge of peace and of My special protection until the end of the ages.”
– Our Lady of Mount Carmel to St. Simon Stock, 1251

Our Lady of Mount Carmel and Fatima | The Fatima Center

“Whosoever dies clothed in this [Scapular] shall never suffer eternal fire. It shall be a sign of salvation, a protection in danger, a pledge of peace and of My special protection until the end of the ages.” – Our Lady of Mount Carmel to St. Simon Stock, 1251 On July 16, 1251, Our Lady of Mount Carmel appeared to St. Simon Stock, the Superior General of the Carmelite Order, and gave him the Brown Scapular. Assuring him of Her special protection over the Order, She directed him to institute a confraternity of the faithful dedicated to Her service and wearing Her designated habit, whose members would likewise experience Her unfailing solicitude for their salvation. (For a brief history of the Brown Scapular see the section beneath this article.) A Sign of Salvation and Protection[1] Wearing the Brown Scapular is a sign of predestination, just as daily recitation of the Holy Rosary is a sign of predestination. The Scapular represents Our Lady’s protection and Her care for us. She promised …

‘We Have a Problem’ – Allah's Willing Executioners

Image generated by ChatGPT. by James Zumwalt Hollywood used a misquote from an aborted 1975 moon landing—“Houston, we have a problem”—to make the movie “Apollo 13,” and in doing so, it became memorialized; the movie demonstrated NASA’s success in using teamwork to solve an issue that could have devastated the mission. It is an approach Denmark’s politicians adopted to tackle their own problem. In 2018, Danish leaders had an “aha” moment, recognizing a major issue. In Apollo 13, the astronauts and NASA operated as a team from the outset; however, it would take a few years for the Danes to be able to mirror that dynamic on a political level to solve the issue about to devastate their own mission. The problem Denmark faced was only recognized after its leaders analyzed what immigration data were telling them. A podcast by Dr. Steve Turley does an outstanding job of highlighting both Denmark’s problem and its solution. Denmark opened its borders only to later discover that Muslim immigrants …

Italian Bishop: "Penitential Act No Longer Works At Mass"

During a recent Alpine Mass celebrated in the woods before a cheerful gathering of elderly people, Bishop Derio Olivero, 65, of Pinerolo, Italy, said that there is one part of the Mass "that no longer works", the Penitential Act, reports MessaInLatino.it on 14 July.
The blog notes that during Mass, the bishop wore his characteristic episcopal bandana as headgear.
Monsignor Olivero is a pro-homosexual activist. During the Alpine Mass, he said sentimentally, "The Mass is a slow act of love. The acts of love are not done in a hurry; caresses given in haste become slaps. So, if you're willing, let's do something: look into each other's eyes for a moment. Look at the person beside you and think: 'This is my brother; this is my sister.'"

Unmasking the War in Ukraine (Part 1) | UK Column Interviews

In a troubled and dangerous world the West claims only it holds the line in terms of freedom, democracy, international security and justice. Deepti is an analyst with UNIT, an international team working to bring peace to Ukraine. She sits down with Brian Gerrish and unmasks that false narrative. As she exposes how UK, USA and European powers are stirring up slaughter in Ukraine, Deepti has been questioned by the UK Intelligence Services and banned from contacting many concerned politicians, professionals, academics and establishment names who work to progress UNIT's work towards peace. Those same UK security and intelligence services have also banned this brave woman from being away from her home overnight. Part 1 of Brian’s interview with Deepti discovers why the West is so afraid of the truth about the origins of the war in Ukraine. And why UK establishment is so afraid of UNIT's international work.
