Leo XIV promotes Bishop García Macías, who fought the traditional Mass but promoted the Mayan liturgy in Mexico. Today, Pope Leo XIV appointed Spanish Bishop Aurelio García Macías, 61, as Secretary of the Dicastery for Divine Worship. He is succeeding Archbishop Vittorio Francesco Viola, who has been appointed Archpriest of St. Peter’s Basilica. García Macías is former rector of the seminary of Valladolid. A career man, with a gentle and courteous manner, like Monsignor Viola, he too was formed liturgically at Sant’Anselmo. In 2021, Francis appointed García Macías Undersecretary of the Congregation for Divine Worship and, unusually for that position, simultaneously elevated him to the episcopate. Part of the Sant’ Anselmo clique García Macías became a close friend of Archbishop Piero Marini, the former papal master of ceremonies and a prominent figure associated with the postconciliar liturgical reform. La Nuova Bussola Quotidiana identified García Macías in 2023 as part of a group of …More
Archbishop Cordileone: "It is very clear to me that there was more unity in the Church when we were living under Summorum Pontificum than we are now under Traditionis Custodes."

Leo XIV appoints enemy of Roman Mass, Archbishop Viola, as archpriest of St. Peter’s – “More to the left than Andrea Grillo”, wears Bugnini’s ring. Today, Pope Leo XIV appointed Archbishop Vittorio Francesco Viola, 61, O.F.M., as Archpriest of St. Peter’s Basilica, Vicar General for Vatican City, and President of the Fabric of St. Peter. He succeeds Cardinal Mauro Gambetti. Monsignor Viola will likely be created a cardinal, as every listed Archpriest of St. Peter’s for hundreds of years has been a cardinal. In 2021, when he was Bishop of Tortona, Francis appointed him Secretary of the Dicastery for Divine Worship. Viola’s career was strongly supported by Archbishop Domenico Sorrentino, who served as Prelate of Pompeii, Secretary of the Congregation for Divine Worship, and later Bishop of Assisi. In Assisi, he worked closely with Viola, who was active in Franciscan, liturgical, and charitable work. Archbishop Viola is part of the circle inspired by Archbishop Annibale Bugnini, the architect …More
Leo XIV has appointed Vittorio Francesco Viola OFM, the current secretary of the Dicastery for Divine Worship, and prime enforcer of Traditionis custodes, who famously wears the episcopal ring of Annibale Bugnini, as Vicar General of Vatican City State, Archpriest of St. Peter's Basilica and President of the Fabric of St. Peter.

VATICAN II: A MASONIC DREAM COME TRUE - Source: … - It is no secret that our modern world is a new world; that the old order of things has disappeared and that what was once a Christian civilization has been superseded, and now a new order reigns. But while this fact is no secret, the organizations that inspired and ultimately brought about these changes were. Today I want to continue my research on Freemasonry, but I want to analyze more broadly what is happening at a civilizational level and how, ultimately, all of this constitutes an attempt to dethrone Jesus Christ, our Lord, as King of all creation.
I CAN DO ALL THINGS THROUG CHRIST WHO STRENGTHENS ME Liturgy of October 11, 2026– 28th Sunday in Ordinary Time Dear brothers and sisters, let us allow ourselves to be inspired and guided by saints like Saint Paul—who belong, so to speak, to the Church’s "special forces." Indeed, in the passage from his Letter to the Philippians that we're going to listen to on Sunday, October 11, Saint Paul invites us to let God empower us—in body and spirit—so that, like him (who was "trained for anything: plenty and hunger, abundance and want”, because he could do everything through Jesus who gave him strength, —cf. Phil 4:12-13), we too may become capable of facing every situation, even the most extreme, in order to proclaim the Good News of the Gospel to our brothers and sisters. In fact, as Jesus will remind us in the passage from the Gospel of Matthew, God the Father invites every man and women to renounce their vain plans and useless ideologies in order to share in the extraordinary feast He is …More
Concubinages may contain “authentic love” - Leo XIV-appointed Bishop at the 'Amoris Laetitia' meeting. At the Vatican meeting marking ten years of Amoris Laetitia, Bishop Stephen Fernandes, 65, spoke on October 9 about accompanying unmarried couples. Leo XIV had apointed him as auxiliary bishop of Bombay, India, in October 2025. Discussing differences between countries, Bishop Fernandes said: “The Gospel remains one, but pastoral pathways cannot be identical everywhere.” Addressing cohabitation, he said that “we should resist both indifference and condemnation.” He proposed asking: “What is already good in their relationship? Where can we discern signs of generosity, fidelity, responsibility and grace?” Fernandes also questioned whether moving such couples toward marriage should be the sole objective: “The question is not simply: How can we move this couple towards a wedding? It is also: Are these two people truly called to marriage, and are they ready to enter into a lifelong marital …More
This… is not great news. For years, Viola has been identified as the éminence grise (no pun intended) behind Cardinal Roche’s maneuvers against the Traditional Latin Rite. Now, he is elevated to a central position in the Vatican, and as a probable future Cardinal.
Why Modern Marriage Crumbles Beneath the Rebellion of Decades of Lawlessness You sit in your houses, weeping over the wreckage of your broken vows, pointing your soft, therapeutic fingers at "poor communication" and "unmet emotional needs." You treat marriage like a marketplace for mutual self-admiration, a perpetual indulgence of the passions, and a playground for unrestrained desire. Repent. You are looking at the smoke while ignoring the fire. What you call a "modern marriage" is no marriage at all. It is nothing more than a glorified shack-up between two so-called equals—the terrible, rotten fruit of the 1960s sexual revolution, which tore down the moral fences of Christendom and baptized lawlessness as liberty. If you stripped away the cowardice of this age and listened to the unyielding voice of the ancient Fathers—confirmed and systematically sealed by the angelic doctor Thomas Aquinas—you would see why your dwellings are falling into the dust. You have committed a double rebellion …More
Homily October 11, 2026 Isaiah 25:6-10a “The Lord will provide for all peoples a feast.” He is ready. Let us receive all of God’s grace. Philippians 4:12-14, 19-20 “I know how to live in humble circumstances.” Joy, peace, and the love of God cost nothing. Matthew 22:1-14 “Come to the feast.” Let’s stay with God, in God. Biblical texts: NAB-RE Normand Thomas.
Bishop Athanasius Schneider warned that Pope Leo XIV’s Vatican meeting on Amoris Laetitia “will not have fruit and meaning” unless the disputed teaching is corrected. In an interview with Michael Haynes, he condemned the interpretation approved by Pope Francis as “against divine law” and “a direct attack on the ineffable sanctity of the Eucharist.” Schneider insisted that the meeting must address the controversy with the Pope, arguing that the current practice cannot continue. He also denounced a new Vatican document commemorating Nostra Aetate as “a pure expression of relativism” and “a very cunning form of denial of the uniqueness of Jesus Christ,” declaring: “This is a betrayal of Christ.”
Ukraine Isn’t a Charity Case, It’s the World’s Top Military School All of the military tacticians in the world are studying this modern war and Ukraine’s ability to innovate and produce (under the most austere, wartime conditions) new drone technology on the cheap. Ukraine’s success in blunting the entire conventional army of Russia with the use of drones has every military strategist reassessing tactics and equipment. While drones cannot win wars by themselves, they can deter even armored forces from invading a country with impunity.
Here is one of your buddies Jeff. You sound so much alike. But you do quote and support them. So no wonder. NATO chief says ‘almost sure’ is enough to blame Russia Mark Rutte expressed support for countries that try to pin almost any incident on Moscow NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte has urged member states to blame any incident they find suspicious on Russia even if they lack irrefutable evidence. He also hailed a recent accusation made by Estonia against its eastern neighbor and called on other nations to follow suit. And old saying goes, takes one to know one. Jeff and Rutte and his daddy Trump!
Gee @Instaurare Omnia in Christo I'd love to comment but you're a BLOCKER! Besides you believe everything Russia propaganda puts out and not the Catholic Church's teachings on this subject, so whatever!
If a person leaves GOD'S True Home for the scandals of men, then they are not listening to GOD. This is why I am totally against scandals that overwhelm GTV. One of the main reasons.
During the Vatican meeting marking the tenth anniversary of Amoris Laetitia, Pope Leo XIV and Cardinal Mario Grech both used language suggesting that different local Churches may develop different "pastoral" approaches. As so often with synodal language, the implications remain ambiguous: neither explicitly says that different countries may adopt contradictory teachings or sacramental rules. Leo XIV called for episcopal conferences and local Churches to discern “new paths.” In his October 7 address, he said: “Moreover, the diversity of the situations from which we come can become a gift for the discernment of the whole Church.” He later spoke of experiences brought from different cultural contexts, adding: “This will nourish the pastoral discernment of the Episcopal Conferences and the hierarchical structures of the Eastern Churches. It will likewise help the local Churches recognize new paths, and draw all the baptized more deeply into the Church’s synodal journey.” Grech: Reception of …More
