The Vatican has stepped in to save an 850-year-old French abbey from being sold. Founded in 1169, Notre-Dame-du-Pré Abbey in Valmont, Normandy, was home to Benedictine monks and, more recently, nuns. But in 2022, the last sisters departed due to age and declining health, leaving the historic monastery's future uncertain. A dispute emerged within the Church. A Vatican-appointed apostolic commissioner, tasked with overseeing the dissolution of the religious community, supported selling the abbey to an outside organization. Bishop Jean-Luc Brunin of Le Havre opposed the sale, insisting that the property should retain its religious purpose. In July 2026, Rome sided with the bishop, clearing the way for the abbey to remain in ecclesiastical use, according to Tribune Chrétienne. An endowment fund is now envisaged to manage the vast estate, comprising 15 hectares of land and 8,000 square metres of buildings. Four religious communities have already expressed interest in settling there. A decision …More
The consecrated life was once taught to be a very holy vocation. But since Vatican II this has changed. No small wonder the monasteries and convents are empty.
Revelation 13:4 and they worshiped the dragon because he had conferred authority on the beast. They also worshiped the beast, saying, “Who can compare with the beast? Who can fight against it?”
How podcasts became political powerhouses | Let's Focus Some called the 2024 US presidential election the “podcast election”. Two years on, the label looks less like hyperbole and more like a preview. Host Josh Rushing is joined by Cenk Uygur, founder of The Young Turks, and Emily Jashinsky, host of After Party and an anchor at Breaking Points, to ask whether podcasts are genuinely widening political discourse - or simply letting candidates pick friendly rooms and dodge the scrutiny that comes with real journalism.

Petition: Deny Tedros his WHO Treaty win this November Tedros has a problem: after years of pressure, meetings, and negotiations, he still cannot call his Pandemic Treaty finished. And you and I are still here. Countries adopted the main agreement in 2025, but the last annex is stuck. Negotiators left September without a deal. From 2–13 November, they go back to Geneva to try to finish it. Your minister's delegation will go in with a position. Every delay has bought you and CitizenGO time—time to expose the deal, warn more people, pressure governments, and make finishing it politically harder. This is your chance to change it. Tedros's final term as WHO Director-General ends in August 2027. Think of the staff, money and pressure the WHO has spent on this. Do you expect him to let it fail quietly? I don't. Big Pharma has huge contracts at stake, too. They will keep pushing. I need you to tell your Health Minister: REJECT the WHO Pandemic Treaty. Put our families and our country ahead of …More
FIFA’s Trump Tower Deal: 7 Years, $4 Million, One Mostly Unused Office nytimes.com/…10/13/world/europe/fifa-trump-tower-… The deal is another sign of how Gianni Infantino, the leader of soccer’s global governing body, has sought closer ties to President Trump. By Tariq Panja Tariq Panja has covered FIFA for almost two decades. Oct. 13, 2026, 12:00 a.m. ET Leer en español About a year before the World Cup, FIFA held a splashy opening for its latest office, a 17th-floor suite in Trump Tower. President Trump’s son Eric Trump said his family’s organization was “honored” to host the global soccer body. FIFA signed a more than seven-year lease, worth about $4 million, according to two officials directly involved in the deal and documents reviewed by The New York Times. The suite mostly sits empty. The terms of the deal, which have not been previously reported, raised concern among some senior FIFA officials about renting space in a Trump-linked building, in a high-tax state, without a clear …More
In France, Leo XIV told different audiences what they want to hear: reassuring conservatives while also offering a positive interpretation of the French Revolution's ideals. Polish priest and philosopher Andrzej Kobyliński observed talking to Jan Pospieszalski on October 6 about Leo XIV's France trip: “The various statements during this pilgrimage were addressed to different groups in France. In a sense, everyone got what they wanted. There were statements affirming the value of tradition, but there were also very positive words about the interpretation of the slogan ‘Liberty, Equality, Fraternity.’" And: "There was not a single critical remark - which also surprised me greatly - about the heart of the dispute. That is, concerning the Enlightenment project and the legacy of the French Revolution. That was completely missing."
What moved me was not only the egg tempera craft, the egg yolk and ground earth somehow turned into the divine, though that alone is its own quiet miracle. It was your nerve. In the third section you do the thing almost no one in this tradition dares. You paint women back into the icons that left them out, into Pentecost, into the Last Supper, into the rooms where they surely stood and were simply never shown.

The irony: Glasgow's archdiocesan newspaper entitled Flourish - meaning “to thrive” or “to blossom” - announces plans to halve the archdiocese's roughly 80 parishes and close 24 churches. Under the front-page headline “We Must Face Up to Reality”, the October issue of Flourishdetails the largest parish restructuring in Glasgow's history. Many mergers and closures are expected within five years, others within a decade. The proposals were approved by Archbishop William Nolan and his council of priests. Since Nolan took office in 2022, the number of active priests has fallen by a third. Most are over 60, while only ONE priest is under 45. Archdiocesan communications director Ronnie Convery warned that, on current projections, Glasgow could have just eight active priests in twenty years. #newsHbkzquamnc

Terrifying!! A Massive Echinus geyser eruption at Yellowstone has scientists worried. Yellowstone is changing — but not in the way many headlines suggest. In 2026, Echinus Geyser returned to a pattern of recurring activity after years of relative quiet. Its September 15 eruption was part of a broader period of renewed hydrothermal activity across Yellowstone. At the same time, scientists were documenting something far more concerning: repeated hydrothermal disturbances and explosions at Biscuit Basin. On September 27, 2026, a small collapse pool formed after the June 13 Biscuit Basin hydrothermal explosion produced another significant explosion. Just after 8:12 PM MDT, boiling water, steam, mud, and rocks were thrown at least 100 feet, or approximately 30 meters, into the air. The event was captured by nearby seismic, acoustic, and camera monitoring equipment. So what does this mean for Yellowstone? Could another hydrothermal explosion happen? And does Echinus Geyser's renewed activity …More

Le miracle du soleil - le 13 octobre 1917 Le Miracle du soleil, ou la danse du soleil, (en portugais : O Milagre do Sol) est un phénomène céleste qui aurait été observé le 13 octobre 1917 à Fátima à midi (heure solaire, ou 13 h 45 heure légale), dans le cadre des apparitions mariales de Fátima par 40 000 à 50 000 personnes (certaines estimations donnent 70 000 personnes), pendant environ dix minutes à Cova da Iria, près de Fátima, au Portugal. La survenue d'un « miracle » (sans en préciser la nature) sur ce lieu aurait été annoncée par les pastoureaux de Fátima trois mois à l'avance. Quoique seuls des articles de presse postérieurs au 13 octobre 1917 mentionnent cette prédiction, d'autres documents, tels que plusieurs comptes-rendus d'interrogatoires de Lucie attesteraient que la fillette parlait déjà à l'avance d'un « miracle pour que tous croient » prévu pour la sixième et dernière apparition, soit au mois d'octobre. Ces documents sont apparus après la danse solaire du 13 …More

So the Catholic faith was always very important to you? Definitely. I altar served throughout grade school. Actually, I even served a couple Masses at college at Pitt. Like I said, the nuns were tough, but it was really good for me. Everything has changed because they don’t get the vocations anymore. They need the vocations in order to do what they have to do.
