"Love it or hate it**, ‘prepping’ is becoming a way of life for many Catholics and with World War III brewing – or, some may say, already begun – our thoughts naturally turn to things both eschatological and practical. Damian Keller leads this article with a short reminder of our spiritual obligations and focus at this time. "Below that, you will find links to some helpful videos concerning practical considerations. These are not created by Catholics and are merely representational – there is a vast amount of information available for those who want to dive deeper into how and why we should make physical preparations. "(**If you are not convinced that prepping is compatible with relying on Divine Providence, then you may like to watch this documentary about the Siege of Sarajevo – a modern day case study in the realities of war and suffering. It reveals that in times of great hardship, people are grateful for the least bit of comfort; we can ensure even a little of this for our …More

Proper way, of Meditation when going for Confession : Aside from Sincerely sorry for our Sin. Powerful method of confession revealed by God the Father to the Doctor of the Church, St. Catherine of Siena.

This spiritual journey into her teachings offers a profound understanding for every Christian seeking deeper faith.

On April 25, Sarah Mullally, who holds the title of Anglican Archbishop of Westminster, blessed at the tomb of St Peter and Archbishop Flavio Pace, 48, Secretary of the Dicastery for Promoting Christian unity, crossed himself.
Talking to Gloria.tv, Bishop Athanasius Schneider asks Pope Leo XIV to permit the episcopal consecrations of the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X. Since Leo XIV continually calls for peace in the world, the bishop argues that he should also foster peace within the Church. If he cannot make peace with the faithful and clergy of the FSSPX — Catholics who love and pray for the Pope — then his appeals for peace will lose credibility. Bishop Schneider therefore recommends that the Pope allow the consecrations as a gesture of reconciliation and to build bridges with the FSSPX, with whom he should continue discussions towards a lasting solution.
Ausschnitt aus diesem Video: "Wenn der Papst in der Welt zum Frieden aufruft, sollte er auch innerhalb der Kirche Frieden stiften. Eine Erlaubnis der Bischofsweihen wäre ein seelsorgliches Zeichen des Dialogs und der Versöhnung mit der Piusbruderschaft – als Brücke zu weiterer Klärung und Einheit."
Prevost obstinately rejects the authority of God and defies the Holy Spirit. Leo Affirms Francis’ Blessing Of Gay Couples Saint Paul teaches us that anyone who rejects the instructions to live in holiness and disobeys the Will of God—which consists precisely in the requirement that we Christians live in holiness and abstain from all sexual immorality—is not rejecting a human authority; rather, on the contrary, such a person is rejecting the Supreme Authority, which is the authority of God. Such a person rejects and defies the Holy Spirit. In other words, Prevost is committing the sin of blasphemy against the Holy Spirit. 1 Thessalonians 4:1-8 New Catholic Bible God Wills Your Sanctification Chapter 4 Respect for the Body. 1 Finally, brethren, you learned from us how you ought to live so that you may be pleasing to God—and as you are indeed doing. Now we ask and exhort you in the Lord Jesus to do so even more. 2 For you know what instructions we gave you by the authority of the Lord …More
Wall Street Apes @WallStreetApes This woman lives in Boston, Massachusetts. She has a 6 month old child and needs childcare but she heard it was expensive She films herself walking into KinderCare, she got a quote: - 2 days a week cost $2,450 per month - 3 days a week cost $3,115 per month + $200 initiation fee yearly “Like that is crazy” “This is a true problem in the United States. Like this is really a legitimate problem that needs to be addressed because people can't afford childcare” Foreigners and illegals get this 100% for free, paid for by taxpayers Americans can’t afford to have kids but we're paying for foreigners to have kids and replace us
2 Peter 2:21-22 It would have been better for them never to have known the way of righteousness than, having known it, to turn back and abandon the holy commandment that was handed on to them. What happened to them manifests the truth of the proverbs: “The dog returns to its own vomit,” and “The washed sow returns to wallowing in the mud.” Hebrews 10:26 Apostasy Remains Unforgiven. If we deliberately persist in sin after having received the knowledge of the truth, then there no longer remains any sacrifice for sins.
For about forty years, the United States and the Soviet Union spent an absurd amount of money preparing for the end of the world. Both sides built bunkers, stockpiled supplies, trained civilians, and developed survival protocols that most people today have completely forgotten about. But here’s the thing – the scenarios they were preparing for sound a lot like what you are getting ready for right now. The triggers might be different, but the problems are the same. The Cold War generated decades of real, government-funded survival research. Most of it gathered dust in declassified archives and forgotten civil defense manuals. Some of it is surprisingly practical, and almost none of it gets talked about anymore. That changes now. The Swiss Shelters When people think Cold War bunkers, they think of secret government facilities buried inside mountains. Fair enough, but the most impressive civilian shelter program didn’t come from the US or the Soviet Union. It came from Switzerland. …
“May the life of Mary, who gave birth to God, be for all of you as instructive as if it were written down. Come to know yourselves in her and carry out the good works that you have neglected in the past.” Saint Athanasios of Alexandria (3rd Century)
Oradea, Romania // Armed Romanian gendarmes and police entered a Catholic Church during the celebration of Mass on Tuesday morning, April 14, in Oradea, initiating an eviction enforcement against Abbot Anzelm Fejes, superior of the 900-year-old Norbertine Abbey of Oradea, and seizing parts of the monastic enclosure. The unconstitutional intrusion and criminal seizure of the monastery took place despite the fact that the case remains under judicial appeal and has generated statements of formal legal protection from Romania’s highest state authorities and those of the Norbertine Order in Rome. According to Krónika, the enforcement began shortly after 9:00 a.m., when a judicial bailiff, accompanied by nearly 100 gendarmes and police, entered the Church of Our Lady of Sorrows while Mass was underway, during the time of Holy Communion. The Catholic faithful had formed a line at the entrance. The bailiff proceeded inside despite their presence. The liturgy continued uninterrupted. The …More
April 21, 1923 Volume 15 The darkest point of the present society. This morning my always lovable Jesus transported me outside of myself, to a place in which one could see flags being waved, and parades in which all classes of people were participating, including priests. As though offended by all this, Jesus wanted to clasp the creatures in His hand to crush them; and I, taking His hand in mine, clasped Him to myself, saying to Him: “My Jesus, what are You doing? After all, they don’t seem to be doing evil things, but rather, good things. It seems that the Church is uniting with your enemies of before, and these no longer show that aversion for dealing with people from the Church; on the contrary, they call them to bless their flags. Is this not a good sign? And You, instead of being pleased with it, seem to get offended.” And Jesus, sighing and highly afflicted, told me: “My daughter, how you are deceiving yourself. This is the darkest point of the present society, and their union …More

PresidentDonald Trump’s job approval among Catholicvoters rebounded in April despite his public feud with Pope Leo XIV intensifying this year. The shift challenges assumptions that Trump’s attacks on a sitting pope would alienate a key religious voting bloc. Catholics—long a pivotal swing constituency—appear more resistant to Vatican criticism than many Democratic and Republican strategists had anticipated. White House spokeswoman Taylor Rogers told Newsweek in an emailed statement: “There has never been a greater president for Catholic Americans than President Trump, and his record proves it. “President Trump ended the weaponization of the federal government against Christians, proudly defended and expanded our religious rights, pardoned pro-life activists, stopped the chemical mutilation of our nation’s children, and protected parents’ rights. The president will never waver in his support for Catholic Americans and will continue delivering unprecedented victories.” Continue …
