HS Senior Pilgrimage to Italy | Walking in the Footsteps of the Saints Each year, graduating seniors from Chesterton Academies embark on a two-week pilgrimage to Italy—a culminating experience that brings four years of classical and Catholic education to life. From the major basilicas of Rome to the hill towns of Orvieto and Assisi, students encounter the history of the Church where it actually happened. They pray at the tombs of St. Peter, St. Paul, St. Francis, St. Clare, and Blessed Carlo Acutis, walk the ancient streets traveled by pilgrims for centuries, and experience the beauty of the Eternal City and beyond. The pilgrimage deepens students' faith, strengthens lifelong friendships, and helps them discover that the Catholic faith is not simply something to learn—it is something to live.

The Rupnik case: 22 previously undisclosed letters from women who belonged to the Slovenian Loyola Community and described alleged abuse by the famed mosaic artist are part of the records of alleged abuse.
Twenty-two previously undisclosed letters by members of the former Loyola Community in Slovenia have been included in the Vatican's ongoing canonical criminal trial, according to OSVNews.com (August 6). The letters were written during Easter 2000 after the community's superior, Sister Ivanka Hosta, asked the 40 sisters to write directly to Rupnik about their relationship with him as part of the Jubilee Year. The sisters were instructed to describe what had happened and to offer forgiveness in a process of reconciliation. Twenty-two of the letters describe psychological, spiritual or sexual abuse. The letters are held in the archives of the Loyola Community, now in the custody of the Archdiocese of Ljubljana. Their full contents have not been made public. According to OSVNews, the letters describe alleged manipulation, coercion, abuse of authority, and physical and sexual assaults. Several sisters said Fr Rupnik used spiritual direction and religious language to pressure them into acts …More
On 4 August, Peruvian essayist Santiago Roncagliolo, in a lengthy interview with Daniel Titinger, described Leo XIV's behind-the-scenes methods as Bishop Robert Prevost of Chiclayo, Peru. According to Roncagliolo, Prevost quietly built coalitions, divided opponents, managed information, and preferred discreet political action to public confrontation. Roncagliolo is broadly sympathetic to Leo XIV. "As a character to narrate he was a nightmare. He has no phrases, no scenes, no gestures. You ask the sources: 'What did Prevost say at that dramatic and crucial moment?' 'Nothing, I think'.'" Weakening Opus Dei from Within Interviewer Titinger described Prevost as "a Trojan horse": "He understands the adversary, doesn't confront him openly, but disables him from within. He's always quiet; that's why he wasn't well known." Roncagliolo does not reject the characterization and discusses Prevost in those terms. He also explains how Prevost weakened Opus Dei: "Prevost divided Opus Dei. He offered …More
Bill Gates: "I can't remember talking about masks at all..." This video not only proves that Bill Gates is lying, but also that he has knowingly spread falsehoods about masks.
One must first understand why wars are fought in the first place. Christian Rakovsky, a founder of Jewish Bolshevism and one of the architects of World War II, was very clear on why that war was fought. First, to punish Germany for printing their own money and prevent their example from spreading to other nations. Second, to prevent Germany's nationalistic spirit from spreading to other nations. Third, and most importantly, to weaken and destroy the Catholic Church. Here are Rakovsky's own words, tape recorded and reprinted in the book Red Symphony by Dr. J. Landowsky "Hitler, this uneducated and elementary man . . . took over for himself the privilege of manufacturing money . . . Are you capable of imagining what would have come of this system if it had infected a number of other states . . . This is very serious. . . . There is only one solution - war. "We have yet another reason, a religious one. Communism cannot be the victor if it will not have suppressed the still living Christianity …More
Serbia's Giant Cross Is Inspiring the World Again | Shalom World News At the entrance to the Serbian city of Kragujevac, every road seems to lead to the Cross. Rising 18 meters into the sky, the St. George's Day Cross (Đurđevdanski Krst) has stood for more than 15 years as a powerful reminder that Christ remains at the heart of a nation shaped by faith. Designed by Serbian sculptor Zoran Ilić and consecrated in 2010 by the Serbian Orthodox Church, the monument bears a striking six-meter relief of Christ's Crucifixion on one side and an image of St. George on the other. This year, the Cross was lovingly restored after the Eparchy of Šumadija initiated conservation work to preserve one of Serbia's most recognizable Christian landmarks. The restoration included cleaning the monument, repairing damaged sculptural elements, renewing the gilded halos and protecting it for generations to come. For the people of Kragujevac, this is more than a monument. It is part of everyday life. Locals simply …More
"Every religion legitimately considers itself to possess the truth," Cardinal Jean-Marc Aveline, Archbishop of Marseille and president of the French Bishops' Conference, said in an interview on Avvenire.it on August 5. Talking about Marseille's religious diversity [where Arabic has long become the dominant language], Cardinal Aveline described the coexistence of Muslims, Jews, Buddhists, and Christians as a theological challenge: "We did not invent the plurality of religions, nor the fact that every religion legitimately considers itself to possess the truth." On the Church's catholicity, Aveline claims: "The Creed we recite every Sunday embodies the Church's vocation to catholicity. If I had been born in China, I would have been Confucian; in Japan, Shinto." He argued that the Church's catholicity means recognizing "the desire for God in the hearts of women and men of every religion." Citing the Second Vatican Council, he said the Holy Spirit offers everyone "the possibility of being …More
I advise GLORIA TV to create a news segment about the parallel, false church of Prevost-Bergoglio. These comments, obviously, are not from a Catholic cardinal, but from an infiltrator dressed as a cardinal.
Pathetic, funny and sad. Who remembers when Vladimir Vladimirovich first put restrictions the gays and pedophiles? The US, Europe and he jews all went berserk! They were ready to burn him at the stake! But did that bother him? Of course not, He kept putting more and more on them through the years. Putin is owned by no one. Not afraid of anyone. And will always do what is right for his people and country. What he did, he should receive rewards. Not burned at the stake. But today, people see evil as good and good as evil.
Russia's most immediate benefit from upgrading ties to North Korea is its ready access to large stockpiles of ammunition. As of late 2024, Russia was firing an average of 10,000 artillery shells a day. To sustain this rate of fire while it increases its domestic production capacity, Russia has turned to North Korea for artillery ammunition and ballistic missiles. According to U.S. officials and observers, North Korea has supplied Russia with millions of artillery and rocket artillery ammunition. According to the May 2025 MSMT report, North Korea also supplied Russia with at least 100 ballistic missiles in 2024 that were "launched into Ukraine to destroy civilian infrastructure and terrorize populated areas."congress.gov/crs-product/IF12760
Replace "I have to" with "I get to" One small change in language can completely shift the way you experience your day. Instead of saying, “I have to,” try saying, “I get to.” For example, when you wake up and think, “I have to go to work today,” replace it with, “I get to go to work today.” The phrase “I have to” often carries a sense of obligation, frustration, and resistance. It makes an ordinary responsibility feel like a burden. “I get to,” however, redirects your attention toward the opportunity hidden inside the same situation. “I get to help my child with homework.” “I get to be exactly who I am.” “I get to walk to the store and buy groceries.” “I get to work and support myself.” “I get to clean a home that gives me shelter.” “I get to call someone I love.” The task itself has not changed, but your perspective has. What once felt like an inconvenience can become a reminder that you still have abilities, opportunities, relationships, and choices that should not be taken for granted. …More
