At the canonization of St Maximilian Kolbe, Pope John Paul II was gifted with a portrait of the new saint by Fr James McCurry, a friend of Beyond These Stone Walls.
Welcome Jesus before that it be too late Yes, God wants all men to be saved, but saved during the life he gives them here on earth, because there is no other. After this life comes eternity, eternal life. I repeat this because even priests find it hard to accept: there is no third life between time and eternity in which we can still secure our salvation. As God teaches through the mouth of Saint Paul: At the acceptable time I heard you; on the day of salvation I helped you. Behold, now is the acceptable time; behold, now is the day of salvation. Now, not tomorrow. That is why the Apostle says: Work out your salvation with fear and trembling. Why work out your salvation with fear and trembling, if you can still do it in death, once you are free from the cares and temptations of this world?

Ezekiel 12:1-12 “They have eyes to see, but do not see; ears to hear, but do not hear.” People are busy with so many things. They don’t have time. It’s the reason to simplify the messages. Matthew 18:21–19:1 To harm someone is also to harm ourselves. Let us draw near to God, let us allow Him to love us. Biblical texts: NAB-RE Normand Thomas.
World’s Oldest Trappist Monk, 108, Survivor of Communist Persecution, Has Died. Fr. Benedict Chao, the world’s oldest Trappist monk, died on July 31 at Our Lady of Joy Abbey on Lantau Island, Hong Kong, at the age of 108. Born in Hebei, China, in 1918, Chao entered monastic life in 1941 and was ordained a priest in 1949.

After fleeing mainland China, Chao and fellow monks lived for a time in Canada and the United States before rebuilding their monastic community in Hong Kong.

"Catholic" Governor Removes Abortion Limits: Massachusetts has removed its gestational limit on abortion. This means that abortions can legally occur until close to birth. Democratic Governor Maura Healey, a "Catholic", signed the law on August 10. Massachusetts bishops opposed the legislation, but no canonical penalties, including excommunication, have followed. Healey was also received by Pope Francis at the Vatican in 2024.
I "Cattolici" (nel senso di movimento politico/culturale organizzato) sono riusciti a spazzare via la Cattolicità. Non sono parole. Le Vittime sono milioni. I "Preti" (nel senso di movimento culturale/politico organizzato, basato sull'assioma "Noi non possiamo essere come i Preti del 1950") sorridono

According to TVPerú Noticias, Prevost submitted his application in 2015 and addressed a handwritten letter to then-President Ollanta Humala explaining his ties to Peru and formally requesting nationality. As part of the naturalization process, Prevost also underwent an examination on Peruvian history, geography and culture. Héctor Pérez, head of Migraciones’ General Archive, said the future pope achieved an exceptionally high result. The essential details of Prevost’s naturalization are confirmed by official Peruvian records. Supreme Resolution No. 157-2015-IN, dated August 17, 2015, states that Prevost applied for …More
