January 19 Saints Marius, Martha, Audifax, and Abachum. by irapuato on January 19, 2014 Saints Marius, Martha, Audifax, and Abachum[1] (died 270) were, according to their largely legendary passio of the 6th century, four saints of the same family (a husband, his wife, and their two sons). They came from Persia to Rome, and were martyred in 270 for sympathizing with and burying the bodies of Christians. Some ancient martyrologies place the date of their death between 268 to 270, during the reign of Claudius II, although there was no persecution of Christians during this time.[2] Their story states that the family's assistance to the Christians exposed them to persecution. They were seized and delivered to the judge Muscianus or Marcianus, who, unable to persuade them to abjure their faith, condemned them to various tortures. Despite the torture, the saints refused to abjure. Maris and his two sons were thus beheaded on the Via Cornelia, and their bodies were burnt. Martha …More
Archbishop Paglia Distances Himself from Bishop's Bell for the Unborn Children: Bishop Antonio Suetta, 63, of Ventimiglia–Sanremo, Italy, installed a “Bell for the Unborn Children” in the diocesan bell tower in Sanremo on December 28. It rings every evening at 20:00 as a reminder of children killed by abortion. Bishop Suetta was fiercely attacked by the media and left-wing parties. He clarified that the bell’s purpose is to foster prayerful remembrance and respect for life. Archbishop Vincenzo Paglia, 80, former president of the Pontifical Academy for Life, publicly distanced himself from the initiative when asked about it at a conference in Sanremo. He said that he had preferred bells for the elderly and for 'fraternity' over Bishop Suetta's bell.
L'ex presidente della Pontificia Accademia per la Vita va a Sanremo e prende le distanze dall'iniziativa della "Campana dei bambini non nati" presa dal vescovo Suetta. Scandaloso ma non sorprendente visti i precedenti. Ma gli altri vescovi da che parte stanno? Riccardo Cascioli
If you no longer believe what the Church teaches about the person, marriage and family, this is what you do: you distance yourself from the teaching. And silence means acceptance,

The lights are on in the Apostolic Palace — but is the Pope at home? Fr. Andrew Khoo published on social media a photo of the Apostolic Palace, Vatican, yesterday afternoon showing that the lights were on in the papal apartments. Rumours have since spread that “Pope Leo is finally home.” The lights could also have been from staff carrying out maintenance or other work there. On Tuesdays, Leo XIV is usually in Castel Gandolfo.
The lights are now on in the Papal Apartments of the Apostolic! It looks like Pope Leo is finally home!! [: Fr. Andrew Khoo]
Demotivated, tired due to the complicated relationship with the curial leadership, and often even mobbed: the Pope's employees wish to work in a more transparent system where meritocracy is rewarded. The picture that emerges from the first representative survey conducted among those working in the offices across the Tiber between September 15 and January 7 reveals a complex and disheartening situation, as repeatedly denounced by the Adlv – a sort of internal union – although always sidelined, reaching high points of friction under Pope Francis's pontificate. However, the arrival of Pope Leo has given some hope, as he immediately addressed the Labor Tribunal – Ulsa –, authorized the payment of the conclave bonus, which had been abolished, and offered reassurances on a shared path...
February 8, 2020 Jesus said to Catalina: “I promise to the soul that visits Me frequently in this Sacrament of Love, that I will receive it affectionately together with all the Blessed and the Angels in Heaven, and that each of its visits will be written down in the Book of its Life and I will grant to it: Every petition that is presented before the Altar of God in favor of the Church, the Pope and consecrated souls. The annulment of Satan’s power over its person and its loved ones. Special protection in case of earthquakes, hurricanes and other natural disasters which otherwise would affect it. It will be lovingly withdrawn from the world and its attractions, which are the cause of perdition. The elevation of its soul, desiring to attain sanctification, in virtuous eternal contemplation of My Face. Relief of its loved ones from the pains of Purgatory. My blessing on every material and spiritual project it undertakes, if they are for the good of its own soul. The receiving of My visit …
20.01.2026 Karl Rahner made a factual mistake in his book, there is no denial from anyone : Pope Leo and the cardinals follow him Lumen Gentium 16 refers to an invisible person in our human reality. This is a fact of life. We cannot see or meet anyone saved in invincible ignorance. So LG 16 cannot be an explicit example of salvation outside the Church as Rahner implies. It cannot be an objective exception for the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus as held by Augustine and Aquinas. On Jan.17,2026 I wrote on Gloria TV1that Karl Rahner used the False Premise and Inference to interpret Vatican Council II in his book,The Christian of the Future(1967.Herder and Herder, New York). On pp.94 and 95 he projects being saved in invincible ignorance of Lumen Gentiun 16 as being an explicit and known example of salvation outside the Catholic Church. He then infers that LG 16 is an objective exception for the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus. So EENS has become obsolete for him (pp.82-85). In this …More
She was the most famous child in the world at age six—but what her mother did to her hair every single night for years will break your heart. February 27, 1935. A six-year-old girl in a party dress sat through hours of the Academy Awards ceremony, watching adults collect gold statues. When they finally called her name, Shirley Temple walked to the stage and received something no other child ever had: a miniature Oscar, made specially because she was too small for a regular one. She thanked them politely. Then she turned to her mother with the question every exhausted six-year-old would ask: "Mommy, can I go home now?" What the audience didn't know was that this little girl had been working since she was three years old. She could smile on command, cry on cue, and tap dance up a flight of stairs without missing a beat. But she was still just a child who wanted to go to bed. Behind those famous blonde curls was work nobody saw. Every single night, her mother sat with bobby pins and patience …More

January 20th - Saint of the Day: Pope Saint Fabian, Martyr A dove picked the pope. No campaign. No clout. Just Providence. Pope Saint Fabian was basically “some guy in the crowd”… until the Church watched a dove land on him and everyone knew who God had chosen. Then he spent 14 years quietly strengthening the Church in Rome, honoring the martyrs, and building real structure for charity and pastoral care. And when Emperor Decius demanded compromise, Fabian did not negotiate worship. He chose Christ and paid for it with his life. His tomb still preaches from the Catacombs of Saint Callistus with a message that hits hard: “Fabian, bishop and martyr.” If faith feels pressured to stay private, this saint is a wake up call. Courage is not loud. It is loyal. Go to HolyManna.blog to read the full story of Pope Saint Fabian and discover many more saints, feast days, and daily reflections.
Web Don’t Trust the Plan! Telegram ControNewsMovimentoDiLiberazione Q's goal has always been to derail real resistance movements and replace them with hopium-addled fantasy narratives. They succeeded. The enemy never wanted your silence. The enemy wanted your voice, to weaponize your beliefs against yourself. The enemy wanted your trust, to poison your will with manufactured illusions of control. The enemy wanted your anonymity, to map you, profile you, and erase you. * * * * * * It has happened again, another mask has slipped. And beneath it, the machinery of manipulation has been exposed.
