Damián Montes Nieto has announced in an Instagram video that he is finally leaving the priesthood: “I have decided to withdraw from the exercise of priestly ministry.” He was a Redemptorist and ordained to the priesthood in 2013 at the Santuario del Perpetuo Socorro in Granada, Spain. He prefers to keep private the “serious reasons” that turned his ministry into a “very sad and very difficult” experience. Looking to the future, he hopes for “the opportunity for a new life, shared with someone, or to start my own family.” He has taken up employment within an educational community and has assumed the role of Academic Vice Director at an international institution. Montes was "born a poet and an artist.” As a missionary priest, Montes had the opportunity to visit countries such as India, Honduras, Thailand, and Colombia, as well as various cities in Spain and Italy. Radical Pro-Homosex Priest Montes was one of the most openly homosex-affirming Catholic priests in Spain. In a 2021 …More

St Charbel heals Elias with cancer in Damour, … Many years ago I worked with an engineer who grew up in Syria, and upstairs from his childhood home lived an old Jewish couple who would "read" Turkish coffee grounds for the neighbors. I had a chance to try some Turkish coffee and learn the significance of some of the symbols that appear on the sides and bottom of the little cup. Then, fast forward several years, I was a volunteer at a Cathedral where one of St Charbel's great nieces was also a volunteer. And, she showed me this image of St Charbel in the coffee grounds. She loved it so much, that I developed a great affection for it myself. St Charbel has been so good to so many people. @In Principio posted a picture of the miraculous hand print St Charbel left on a man's arm, and @Instaurare Omnia in Christo posted a link to a fantastic youtube about that miracle youtube.com/watch?v=7UatXxxzk_Y It's an hour long video, and has English subtitles, so to get the story you need to pay …More
Toward the Spirit: Why Faithful Catholics Need to Recover the Patristic and Scholastic Vision of Marriage Faithful Catholics today find themselves in an unusual position. On one side stands a secular culture that has largely abandoned Christian morality altogether. Marriage has been redefined, chastity ridiculed, fertility treated as a burden, and self-denial dismissed as unhealthy. Against these errors, faithful Catholics rightly defend the Church's teaching. Yet another danger confronts us—one far more subtle. It is possible to defend Catholic morality while gradually losing sight of the theological vision that once animated it. We may continue to affirm the Church's teachings while forgetting the spiritual principles that gave those teachings their shape. We may preserve the conclusions while neglecting the foundations. This danger is especially evident in the realm of marriage. The Catholic Church continues to teach the sanctity of marriage, the evil of contraception, the goodness …More
Communion we all born from the side Christ who are baptised and have life from his body and blood . We are attached to eucharist umbilical cord the church is the bride of Christ which is pregnant with faithful Catholics. The crucifix is the symbol of marriage no escaping calvary in this life for it is the source of redemptive life . Marriage is the mirror of calvary
Sturgeon and Murrell in happier times – Wiki Commons,Scottish Government, CC-BY-2.0 Sturgeon insists she knew nothing of her husband’s crimes. Today (23), former Scottish National Party chief executive Peter Murrell was sentenced to over five years in prison. The estranged husband of former Prime Minister Nicola Sturgeon admitted embezzling more than $540,000 of SNP party funds to buy luxury items such as cars and a motorhome. Reuters reported: “Murrell, 61, is the estranged husband of ex-SNP leader Nicola Sturgeon, who suddenly resigned in 2023, shortly before she was arrested as part of the probe into the party’s finances. She was cleared of wrongdoing in March last year. He pleaded guilty last month to embezzling £400,310 from the SNP between 2010 and 2023, using the money to buy several vehicles, as well as items from luxury brands such as Estee Lauder and Harrods. He was jailed for five years and three months at Edinburgh High Court on Tuesday.” The judge said Murrell’s …
One message for Muslims, another for Catholics: While Pope Leo XIV described the Great Mosque of Algiers in April as "a divine, sacred space" where "God is present", Cardinal George Jacob Koovakad, Prefect of the Dicastery for Interreligious Dialogue, told AdVaticanum.com on June 22 that "Catholics should understand papal gestures in non-Christian spaces as symbolic acts of encounter and dialogue" and "not as approval of all religious beliefs equally."
After Leo XIV told moslems that mosques are "sacred space", Cardinal Koovad says that "Catholics should understand papal gestures in non-Christian spaces (Mosques) as symbolic acts of encounter and dialogue, not as a denial of the uniqueness of Christ or as approval of all religious beliefs equally."
Pope Leo XIV to the UN’s World Food Programme: “Your institution’s commitment resonates profoundly with the Catholic Church’s mission to uphold human dignity and to foster fraternity, rooted in the Gospel’s call to love our neighbor. Together, we share the urgent task of confronting hunger and malnutrition, while also tackling the underlying structural causes that sustain them. To meet this task effectively, we must examine the challenges before us, their underlying causes and the paths toward lasting solutions.” “Today, crises have evolved from isolated events into persistent realities, marked by prolonged conflicts, chronic food insecurity, economic volatility and growing climate vulnerabilities. This raises a fundamental question: what configuration of the global order is capable of producing, reproducing and, at times, normalizing such conditions? The issue is no longer limited to how to intervene; rather, it extends to understanding why the system constantly produces the very …More

"We must obey God rather than men." St Peter (Peter the Roman) our first nad actual pope. God wanted Justice and Mercy, and through His Son we found both, sometimes it is hard to watch how, from far we see it coming, slowly, like if time stops, our instincts or subconscience tells us exactly what will come next... a heart shattering but expected experience: excommunication. I used to not believe in luck, but sometimes I just think on how lucky to find Jesus while inside the Church He founded in St Peter, somedays I tell myself that it isn’t luck but just His Love, such sweet Mercy which I don’t deserve, that creates the false but sweet thought that I'm so lucky to be alive and catholic, so... so happy about this "feeling of fortune", which, spiritually speaking is not luck, just His Divine Mercy, but my flesh tries to deceive my heart and mind that it is just luck. True, most catholic people in the world walks through life without ever embracing Jesus, they stuck in "automatic" mode, …More
The solar panel-covered roof of a 500,000 sq-ft cold storage facility in Los Angeles caught fire on Wednesday, sending up thick clouds of dark smoke and ammonia, leading city officials to order nearby residents to shelter in place. About 110 firefighters responded in the afternoon to a blaze at the cold storage and freezing warehouse owned by Lineage in the Boyle Heights neighborhood near downtown, according to spokesperson Jennifer Middleton of the Los Angeles fire department. Both the city and Los Angeles county deployed firefighters and hazmat teams to contain the fire. The cause of the fire remains under investigation, Middleton said. By the time firefighters arrived, the solar panels covering the roof had caught fire. “I urge everyone in the impacted area to get indoors immediately, close windows and doors, turn off air conditioning, and avoid unnecessary travel to the area,” the Los Angeles mayor, Karen Bass, wrote in a tweet. Black smoke rises from a warehouse fire in the Boyle …
People want proof all the time about Putin. I and others have left plenty of it. But it seems some still don't get it. So I thought I would let you hear what I see and know be told by Former Austria's Former Foreign Minister Karin Kneissl confirm what I say is true. That I am not the only one who knows President Putin well. She moved to Russia to Saint Petersburg and attends important speeches and dinners and celebrations with President Putin. So she knows him very well. @Jeffrey Ade More proof? Or just one more thing to demand and ignore? I invite you once again to hear with your own ears who President Putin truly is. If you refuse. Don't demand proof again. I am leaving three videos. First is Mrs Kneissl in an interview with of all people the BBC. When you hear her describe Putin whom she knows well, no one will be able to comprehend it. So much propaganda destroys the brain. I truly believe it. The government turned on her. But what I see, the people loved her and still do and even …More
" Former Foreign Minister Karin Kneissl confirm what I say is true... She moved to Russia to Saint Petersburg and attends important speeches and dinners and celebrations with President Putin" --- Yep. Paputchiks, next to matryoshkas, are probably most famous and most worldwide Russian products. "So much propaganda destroys the brain." --- True indeed. So, please do not damage our brains making this (allegedly Catholic) forum another version of the infamous "npabga"
Yesterday, the Vatican published the program for the Consistory of June 26–27, thus providing a picture of the themes, personalities, and processes that Leo XIV wants for the Church. The scheduling information had already been leaked on June 17. Francis' Personnel Remains The Vatican has entrusted the four principal sessions to Cardinals Grzegorz Ryś (Poland), Víctor Manuel Fernández (Curia), Stephen Brislin (South Africa), and Mario Grech (Curia). All four are prominent figures associated with Francis' "project". Cardinals Fernández and Grech are homosexual activists. Francis' Synodal Procedures Remain MessaInLatino immediately noted that the structure of the meeting is unmistakably similar to the synods of Francis: small groups, listening sessions, synthesis reports, and strictly timed interventions. Two of the four sessions are organized around Leo XIV's encyclical Magnifica humanitas. This means discussions about peace, reconciliation, social fragmentation, technology, and power. …More
