African Priest Baptized 175 People the Day Before He Was Shot Dead

The Catholic Church in the Central African Republic is mourning the loss of Father Crépin Martial Monga-Hadassi, 35, who was killed on June 29 while serving one of the country's most conflict-ridden regions.
His funeral was celebrated on July 1 at Saint Peter Claver Cathedral in Bangassou.
Just one day before his death, on June 28, Father Crépin baptized 175 people in one of his final pastoral acts.
On the morning of June 29, he accompanied the newly baptized to the Mbomou River before returning to St. John the Baptist Parish in Zémio, where he served as vicar.
Later that evening, at around 6:43 p.m., Father Crépin was ambushed while returning to the parish rectory. The attack reportedly took place on the road between a Central African Armed Forces (FACA) checkpoint and the parish residence. He was fatally shot, while a female parishioner traveling with him was seriously wounded.
The identity of the attackers remains unknown, and no group has claimed responsibility.

Why has the Vatican said so little about the persecution and murder of Christians in Africa? Why so much attention to the orchestrated “schism” with the SPPX?

Rome pronounces excommunication: the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X officially declared to be in a state of schism - The day after the episcopal ordinations celebrated at Écône, the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith published a decree declaring that the bishops who participated in the consecrations without a pontifical mandate have incurred excommunication latae sententiae

Excommunication des évêques de la FSSPX – Le clergé déclaré schismatique – Confessions invalides

Le 2 juillet, le Dicastère pour la doctrine de la foi du Vatican a publié un décret excommuniant les six évêques de la Fraternité sacerdotale Saint-Pie X (FSSPX).
Ce décret met également en garde le clergé et les fidèles contre toute adhésion au schisme de la Fraternité, précisant que cela entraîne une excommunication d’office.
Une note explicative jointe précise que toutes les tentatives menées depuis le pape Paul VI pour réconcilier le mouvement fondé par Mgr Marcel Lefebvre avec l’Église catholique ont échoué.
Les récentes consécrations épiscopales, effectuées contre la volonté du pape Léon XIV, « ont constitué un schisme, avec les conséquences canoniques qui en découlent pour les ministres sacrés et les fidèles laïcs impliqués », précise-t-elle.
« Les ministres sacrés appartenant à la Fraternité sacerdotale Saint-Pie X sont en schisme et doivent donc être considérés comme schismatiques. »
Les fidèles laïcs qui adhèrent formellement à la Fraternité doivent également être considérés …More

“Today is another historic day for the US-Israel relationship as the US receives the property that will be the future home of the new US Embassy complex — deepening and expanding our presence in Jerusalem — the eternal capital of Israel,” Huckabee said in a statement shared by the Foreign Ministry.
Speaking at the ceremony, the US ambassador said Washington “recognizes Jerusalem as the eternal, indigenous and forever capital of the Jewish people.” “We are going to plant our flag, our American flag, on the soil of Jerusalem for a permanent and a brand-new embassy compound that will serve as our mothership of diplomatic activities here in Israel,” Huckabee added. “I would say God made that decision 3,800 years ago, and we finally got around to acknowledging what had been determined long before the United States of America came along.”...

TIME TO FILE CANONICAL PETITIONS AGAINST CARDINAL FERNANDEZ AND THE BISHOPS AND PRIESTS

02.07.2026
Canonically, how can Cardinals Fernandez, Ladaria, O’Malley and Bishop Peter Libasci, interpret Vatican Council II irrationally, when Brother Andre Marie mimc interprets it rationally at the St. Benedict Center in New Hampshire, USA ?
In two theological papers of the International Theological Commission, Vatican, Vatican Council II is interpreted irrationally by Cardinal Fernandez and Cardinal Luiz Ladaria sj.They are Christianity and the World Religions and The Hope of Salvation for Infants who die without being baptised.
With the rational interpretation of Vatican Council II the Council has no explicit exceptions for the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus, of the Council of Florence 1442.But with the irrational interpretation of the cardinals there are exceptions for EENS.So Tradition is made obsolete for the cardinals with Vatican Council II interpreted irrationally.

Stephen Wang is the new Bishop of Arundel & Brighton: from the Venerable English College to St Philip Howard’s Cathedral

Vatican City - Pope Leo XIV today appointed Fr Stephen Wang, a priest of the Archdiocese of Westminster and until now Rector of the Venerable English College in Rome, as Bishop of Arundel & Brighton. The diocese has been vacant since 14 February 2026, when Archbishop Richard Moth, appointed to the primatial See of Westminster on 19 December 2025, took possession of the Archdiocese. “Gratitude and trepidation, and a profound sense of peace” The Bishop-elect entrusted his first thoughts to a statement which reveals something of the man before the pastor: “This appointment has come as a huge surprise. I feel a mixture of gratitude and trepidation; an excitement and curiosity about all that lies ahead; and above all, a sense of peace. I’m grateful to Pope Leo for calling me and putting his trust in me, and to Archbishop Moth for all his care for the Diocese over these years. “I’m sad to be leaving the Venerable English College, and the Diocese of Westminster. But I am overjoyed at the thought …

"Leo XIV confirms a pattern..."
I'd be cautious.
One English appointment is too small a sample.

Wang publicly opposed it in 2012. He argued it would “radically transform” marriage, erase sexual difference from its definition, and harm the social recognition of mother-father family life. He also signed/sent arguments to the UK consultation and linked the Coalition for Marriage petition.
Homosexual relationships: he explicitly said “no-one denies that there can be a profound relationship between two people of the same sex,” but argued that a same-sex relationship is not the same as marriage because it cannot unite sexual difference with natural procreation.
Pornography and masturbation: in A Way of Life for Young Catholics, he says pornography causes “immense damage” and that masturbation is wrong because sexuality should lead to “open and loving relationships,” whereas masturbation “traps us in ourselves.”

The Vatican drops the hammer: • The four new SSPX bishops, along with the two SSPX bishops who consecrated them, are excommunicated. • All SSPX priests are declared "in schism and must therefore be considered schismatics." • All lay faithful "who formally adhere to the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X are to be considered schismatics and excommunicated." • SSPX confessions and marriages are declared invalid.

FSSPX Bishops Excommunicated - Clergy Declared Schismatic - Confessions Invalid

The Vatican's Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith on July 2 issued a decree excommunicating the six bishops of the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (FSSPX).
The decree also warns clergy and faithful not to adhere to the Fraternity's schism, stating that doing so incurs automatic excommunication.
An accompanying explanatory note says that all attempts since Pope Paul VI to reconcile the movement founded by Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre with the Catholic Church have failed.
The recent episcopal consecrations against the will of Pope Leo XIV, it says, "constituted the offense of schism, with the resulting canonical consequences for the sacred ministers and lay faithful involved."
"The sacred ministers belonging to the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X are in schism and must therefore be considered schismatics."
Lay faithful who formally adhere to the Fraternity are likewise to be considered schismatics and excommunicated.
The FSSPX clergy administer "the sacraments illicitly": "The …More

Cardinal at "Mass and Blessing" of Golden Homosexual Jubilee

On June 13, two homosexual men celebrated a “Mass of Thanksgiving for 50 Years of Friendship, Partnership, and Commitment in the Pursuit of Justice” at Holy Apostles Church in London, England.
About 150 relatives and friends of the hardened sinners attended.
The two homosexual men, Julian Filochowski and Martin Pendergast, established the Diocese of Westminster's "pastoral ministry" for homosexuals in 1999.
The principal celebrant was Fr. Jim O'Keefe, a longtime "friend" of the homosexuals.
The concelebrants were Bishop John Crowley, emeritus of the Diocese of Middlesbrough; Bishop John Rawsthorne, emeritus of the Diocese of Hallam; and Canon Chris Vipers, a priest of Holy Apostles Parish.
Cardinal Timothy Radcliffe, OP, delivered the homily. While celebrating homosexuality, he also blasphemed against the Holy Trinity, declaring: "I would add that the Son is the friend and the Spirit is friendship. So every true, faithful, well-lived friendship is a sharing in the life of God."

Holy See rules SSPX bishops excommunicated, strips faculties for two sacraments

VATICAN CITY (PerMariam) — Following the Society of Saint Pius X’s consecration of four new bishops, the Holy See has declared all six of the Society’s bishops are now excommunicated, and further warned of heavy penalties for the clergy and faithful attached to the Society. Following through with its prior warnings from May 13 and from June 30, the Vatican has now announced that the penalty of latae sententiae excommunication has been incurred by all six SSPX bishops: Alfonso de Galarreta and Bernard Fellay, Pascal Schreiber, Michael Goldade, Michel Poinsinet de Sivry, Marc Hanappier. The first two were consecrator and co-consecrator at the July 1 ceremony, while the other four were those in receipt of the order of bishop. All six SSPX bishops, July 1, 2026 The Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith’s Decree cites the reasons as being “episcopal consecration of four presbyters, without a papal mandate and against the will of the Supreme Pontiff,” and then for Bp. Fellay as having …

In the initial draft, Tucho had ended the declaration with, "And your little dog too!" The bishops, under Cannon Law #1364, are excommunicated , latae sententia i.e. without a trial. The Explanatory Note addressing the 1988 excommunication does not say that the priests and faithful in the SSPX are excommunicated. It states, "formal adherence to the schism" would result in excommunication. The word "formal" in that declaration means that the individual declares, "I don't care what the Pope says, I say..." It cannot just be implied by remaining in the society or assisting at their masses. The dicastery similarly conflates the terms "illicit" and "invalid." Illicit is "against the law", invalid is "having no effect". Isaac's blessing of Jacob was illicit, since he misled his father. None the less, both Isaac and Esau knew it was valid. At worst, SSPX sacraments are illicit. (The members of the Society argue that the state of emergency makes them licit. As the Synodal Church evolves, it is …More

Leo XIV Promotes Key Architect of Francis' Revolution

On June 30, Leo XIV appointed Bishop Marco Mellino as Secretary of the Dicastery for Legislative Texts. Until now, Mellino was the deputy secretary of the same Dicastery. He was one of the principal canon-law officials of Francis' Curial reform.
Born in 1966 in Canale (Piedmont), Mellino was ordained a priest in 1991 and earned his licentiate (1999) and doctorate (2000) in canon law at the Pontifical Lateran University.
Defending Amoris Laetitia
In January 2018, Mellino defended the controversial Chapter VIII of Amoris laetitia about giving Communion to adulterers in an article entitled 'La comunione ad alcuni fedeli in situazione irregolare' (Communion for some members of the faithful in an irregular situation). Mellino belongs to the same canon-law milieu as Cardinal Francesco Coccopalmerio, the principal Vatican defender of Amoris laetitia.
In October 2018, Francis appointed Mellino as Bishop and Secretary of the Council of Cardinals (the "C9").

Cardinal Müller urges Vatican to rethink Latin Mass restrictions after SSPX consecrations

Cardinal Müller: "Time to Free the Roman Rite"

The episcopal consecrations in Ecône, Switzerland, today should lead the Church to reconsider the restrictions on the Mass in the Roman rite, Cardinal Gerhard Müller told IlGiornale.it on July 1.
The restrictions imposed by Traditionis Custodes (2021) have only strengthened the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (FSSPX) by giving them "a symbol of dissent against Rome". They have "almost served as propaganda" for them.
According to Cardinal Müller, Traditionis Custodes "has not had a positive effect": "Using an authoritarian approach to demand blind obedience is not our way."
He praised Benedict XVI's Summorum Pontificum (2007) for bringing "a great deal of peace" to the Church, adding: "One cannot prohibit the rite in its ancient form."
The ancient Mass cannot be harmful when "the saints and the Fathers of the Church celebrated in this form."
Cardinal Müller rejected the claim that those attached to the ancient rite reject the Second Vatican Council, arguing instead that the …More
