German Bishop Opposes Efforts to Convince People of the Gospel

Bishop Gerhard Feige of Magdeburg, Germany, has criticized calls for new evangelization strategies as a response to declining Church membership.
“I am very skeptical of strategies and methods aimed at deliberately persuading people,” Monsignor Feige told Herder Korrespondenz in its September issue.
Addressing secularization, pluralization, individualization, increased mobility and digitalization, Bishop Feige said: “Methods of evangelization hardly seem to me to be the right response to these complex phenomena.”
Instead, the bishop argued that the Church should focus on living out its mission through service to others, “It is not about imposing the Gospel on people,” he said. “The present age challenges us to be a Church that is as authentic and committed to serving others as possible.”

All the fruits of the 2VC.
He is "very sceptical" he said.
If he had faith as small as a mustard seed, at least he would not be skeptical. He would do his job, his life's calling to which he himself voluntarily responded, and God would do the rest.
But the conciliarists who have now metastasized into synodalists, would do anything but what they were called to and agreed to do. What will be their reward?!

Twice I visited two German chancery offices, over 30 years ago, and I came to the conclusion that none of the clerics working there believed in God.

Cardinal Jean-Paul Vesco has accused the Israeli leadership of pursuing a “genocidal logic” and warned that the prospects for a Palestinian state have been progressively undermined

Cardinal Vesco: Netanyahu Wants the Palestinian People to “Disappear”

During the Consistory, Leo XIV told the cardinals, “Support me, stand with me in this battle against war,” pro-homosexual Cardinal Jean-Paul Vesco of Algiers told IlMessaggero.it on August 23.
Questioning the “Just War”
Cardinal Vesco questioned the Christian concept of a just war, arguing that “for those who are fighting, their own war is always just.” While acknowledging a right to self-defense, he asked, “But up to what point?”
“In any case, war itself is not just. In the end, we no longer know where to draw the line.”
Israel and its “Settlements, Settlements, Settlements”
On Gaza, CardinalVesco recalled living in Jerusalem for two years and visiting Gaza several times during the Intifada: “I experienced the checkpoints and saw with my own eyes the humiliation they represented. Today it is much worse.”
Even then, he said, it was difficult to believe in a two-state solution because the Israeli authorities did not want one: “Netanyahu has not wanted it for more than twenty years.”

No. I am not saying that Alberto Melloni or FSCIRE interpret Vatican II as continuous with a Feeneyite understanding of extra ecclesiam nulla salus.
“Those who, through no fault of their own, do not know the Gospel of Christ or his Church, but who nevertheless seek God with a sincere heart, and moved by grace, try in their actions to do his will as they know it through the dictates of their conscience—those too may achieve eternal salvation (LIONEL: It does not state that we can know of any particular state.

Ben-Gvir claims removing UNRWA compound from East Jerusalem
Israel seizes UNRWA training center in occupied East Jerusalem

Israel seized the Qalandia Training Center from UNRWA to build a new educational complex, claiming historical ownership by the Jewish National Fund and prompting Palestinian calls for UN intervention.
'Israeli' police forces took control of a United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) facility in Kafr 'Aqab, located in East Jerusalem, and evicted its staff on Tuesday, National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir claimed. Speaking on behalf of the police force, Ben-Gvir confirmed that a large detachment of police personnel carried out the operation to remove the UN agency from the site. "This morning, large forces of the 'Israeli' police removed UNRWA from the location," Ben-Gvir stated.

Kenya: Fake Priest Celebrates Mass Alongside Bishop Before Being Exposed

A fake priest in Kenya managed to concelebrate the Eucharist alongside Bishop John Mbinda of Lodwar before being exposed.
Jones Bogonko Onchonga used forged documents to pose as a Catholic priest and “celebrate” Eucharists in several churches.
Suspicions arose during a Eucharist on August 9, when Catholics noticed irregularities in his celebration: he appeared tense and left the altar during the service. A photo was shared among local clergy, prompting questions about his liturgical identity.
The Diocese of Lodwar later confirmed that he was not an ordained priest, but a married layman and father of two.
He now faces criminal charges over the alleged impersonation and use of false documents.
According to Fides, police said Onchonga confessed to having impersonated a priest for almost two years.

The Divine Liturgy is not the question of discipline but lex orandi strictly related to lex credendi.
The Council of Trent confirmed the above proclaiming anathemas against sacramental revolutionaries (Canon XIII about the Sacraments in general).

"So, then, if anyone says that the Roman Pontiff has only an office of supervision or guidance, and not the full and supreme power of jurisdiction over the whole Church, and this not only in matters of faith and morals, but also in those which concern the discipline and government of the Church dispersed throughout the whole world; or that he has only the principal part, but not the absolute fullness of this supreme power; or that this power of his is not ordinary and immediate both over all and each of the Churches and over all and each of the pastors and faithful: let him be anathema."

FSSPX to Continue Lourdes Pilgrimage Despite Bishop’s Restrictions

The Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (SSPX) has announced that it will continue its annual pilgrimage to Lourdes.
Following the episcopal consecrations on July 1 in Ecône, Bishop Jean-Marc Micas of Tarbes and Lourdes withdrew permission for the SSPX to celebrate public Masses, administer sacraments, or organize public prayers at Lourdes.
In an August 22 statement, Fr. Gonzague Peignot, superior of the FSSPX in France, announced that the Fraternity intends to continue coming to Lourdes every year, “Our Lady does not deserve to be abandoned despite the obstacles,” he said.
The FSSPX expressed 'sorrow and incomprehension', questioning the bishop's decision and pointing to the interreligious Christian-Muslim pilgrimage that was welcomed at the sanctuary in October 2025.
For now, the FSSPX faithful intend to remain present at Lourdes, but their pilgrimage will no longer be able to take the same public form as in previous years.

The Fifth Latter of St. Francis of Paola ~ 'May our blessed Lord Jesus Christ reign! Gaudeamus omnes; let us all rejoice'

Fifth Letter .
[The original of the following letter is allegedly preserved in the city of Montalto in Calabria, Kingdom of Naples, and has been copied by John Baptist Francesco, a public notary:]
My Lord and Brother in Jesus Christ our Lord, — May his Divine Majesty reign in every place, namely, in heaven, upon earth, and even in hell. How spiritually blind are those persons who, having no thought about the things of God, fix their end in earthly objects! Wretched men! by far worse than the very beasts which are guided by their senses, because they cannot have reason; but when men abandon the use of their reason, they become brutalized. Hence they shall ever be in confusion. Let, therefore, the princes of this world be prepared for the greatest scourges to fall upon them. But from whom? First from heretics and infidels, then from the holy and most faithful Cruciferi elected by the Most High, who, not succeeding in converting heretics with science, shall have to make a vigorous use of …More

THE happenings of our days are supplying strong arguments that the prophecies of the Holy Scriptures are coming to their realization. Better information means better preparedness.
THE SMOKE OF THE ANTICHRIST is not available in book stores. The distribution of this book is carried out by the goodwill and ingenuity of its readers who wish to be the "fragrance of Christ for God" (II Cor. 2, 15), by sharing the light of Christ with their fellow men, in this age of general confusion brought into the world by "the world rulers of this darkness" (Eph. 6, 12).

Natalie Harp: The Stalker Who Got the Job | The Daily Beast Podcast
Kurt Andersen and Joanna Coles take a wild ride through the strange characters, political fantasies, and very plausible futures shaping America right now. Andersen sizes up Natalie Harp as a figure so bizarre she could have stepped out of Dickens, Orwell, or The Simpsons, before revisiting his new novel’s startling vision of Donald Trump’s death and an America fractured beyond recognition. They debate whether the country’s divisions could really lead to disunion, why fiction may be better equipped than nonfiction to capture this political moment, and whether Jon Ossoff has emerged as the Democrat to watch. Then, the conversation takes an even stranger turn as Andersen reviews his former coke dealer RFK Jr.’s unlikely new food podcast and what it might reveal about life after Trump. 00:00 - Natalie Harp: The Stalker Who Got the Job 06:46 - Why Natalie Harp Is Like Smithers 12:16 - Kurt Andersen Imagines Trump’s Final Act …More

On 23 August, at Holy Family Church in St. Louis Park, Minnesota, a woman knelt at the Communion rail during Communion. Just as the priest was about to give her Communion, she stood and handed him a flower. Despite Communion being distributed by intinction, she grabbed the Host and then took the chalice used for intinction, drank from it, and threw it onto the floor before leaving the church with an escort. The priest immediately purified the area where the Precious Blood had been spilled.

A disturbing incident occurred during Sunday Mass at Holy Family Church in St. Louis Park, Minnesota, where a woman disrupted Communion by grabbing and dropping the vessel used for intinction, spilling some of the Precious Blood.

Since they have a video of the Mass, hand it over to the police and send copies to the news media. If it were just the humans being disrespected, they could choose to "grin and bear it" but since God was profaned, the woman needs to be tracked down and punished.

(Clement, Disciple of the Apostle Peter – Volume III)
The central theme of The Apocalypse, the third volume of the tetralogy Clement, Disciple of the Apostle Peter, is the Apostle John’s Revelation on the island of Patmos. Through the prism of such disturbing contemporary phenomena as the new world order, microchipping, gender ideology, heresy, idolatry and occultism, the book explores the meaning of apocalyptic symbols and imagery.
One interesting aspect of the book is its prophetic nature. First published in Czech in 2019, the book highlighted dangerous means of global control and depopulation, such as microchipping, vaccination and digitalisation, which became a reality almost immediately in the near future (the Covid pandemic, artificial intelligence).
