The U.S. birth rate reached a new record low in 2025, according to provisional Vital Statistics data released this month by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Last year, the U.S. recorded only 53.1 births per 1,000 women of childbearing age (ages 15-44), a 1.3% decline from 2024 and a 23% decline from 2007. The decline reflects a social shift as women are choosing to bear children later in life, as well as the combined weight of decades of social changes that undermined the American family. The U.S. birth rate today is so far below historical averages that the total number of annual births is much smaller than in previous years, when the U.S. had a significantly smaller population. For example, there were 4.3 million births in 1961, when the U.S. population was 184 million, slightly larger than the current population of Bangladesh. In 2025, there were only 3.6 million births in the entire U.S., despite a population of 342 million. In 1961, the general fertility rate …
Leo XIV received Cardinal Gianfranco Ghirlanda, S.J., Patron of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta, and Grand Master Fra’ John Timothy Dunlap on April 10 to address ongoing issues related to the Order’s constitutional reform. According to CatholicHerald.com, the meeting focused on the Order’s revised Constitutional Charter, drafted under Ghirlanda’s supervision. The reform remains controversial as it reshapes the balance between the Order’s sovereignty and Vatican oversight. Leo XIV first met both men together before holding separate discussions. Previous reports had suggested that Cardinal Ghirlanda - appointed by Pope Francis in June 2023 with broad reform powers - could be replaced, possibly by Cardinal Arthur Roche or Cardinal Timothy Dolan. Nico Spuntoni wrote that the audience aimed to review specific constitutional articles and update related regulations. He added that a leadership change may become likely once Ghirlanda’s mandate ends. The Order remains unique as both a …More

Ninth Day: Today bring to Me SOULS WHO HAVE BECOME LUKEWARM,* and immerse them in the abyss of My mercy. These souls wound My Heart most painfully. My soul suffered the most dreadful loathing in the Garden of Olives because of lukewarm souls. They were the reason I cried out: 'Father, take this cup away from Me, if it be Your will.' For them, the last hope of salvation is to run to My mercy. Most compassionate Jesus, You are Compassion Itself. I bring lukewarm souls into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart. In this fire of Your pure love, let these tepid souls, who, like corpses, filled You with such deep loathing, be once again set aflame. O Most Compassionate Jesus, exercise the omnipotence of Your mercy and draw them into the very ardor of Your love, and bestow upon them the gift of holy love, for nothing is beyond Your power. Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon lukewarm souls who are nonetheless enfolded in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. Father of Mercy, I …More
*To understand who are the souls designated for this day, and who in the Diary are called 'lukewarm,' but are also compared to ice and to corpses, we would do well to take note of the definition that the Savior Himself gave to them when speaking to St. Faustina about them on one occasion: There are souls who thwart My efforts (1682). Souls without love or devotion, souls full of egoism and selfishness, proud and arrogant souls full of deceit and hypocrisy, lukewarm souls who have just enough warmth to keep themselves alive: My Heart cannot bear this. All the graces that I pour out upon them flow off them as off the face of a rock. I cannot stand them because they are neither good nor bad (1702).
Pro-homosexual Luxembourg Cardinal Jean-Claude Hollerich has warned that the idea of female ordination would "currently" split the Church. In an interview with VaticanNews.va on 10 April, Cardinal Hollerich referred to the divisions within the Anglican group following the appointment of Sarah Mullally. According to the cardinal, any [impossible] change in access to ordained ministry must come through “the consensus of the whole Church,” not through isolated regional decisions. However, Hollerich claimed a growing frustration among “many” women. For him it is difficult to imagine a Church enduring long-term if “half of the People of God suffer because they have no access to ordained ministry.” Asked about a possible timeline, Cardinal Hollerich said: “I leave that to the Holy Spirit.” In the meantime, he wants to expanding women’s roles in decision-making within the Church. He has three women serving as episcopal delegates in his Archdiocese for consecrated life, the social sector,…More

Today, Pope Leo XIV appointed Monsignor Joseph de Metz-Noblat as the Bishop of Verdun in France. Born on 6 February 1959 in Cherbourg, he studied civil law, philosophy, and theology. He obtained a licentiate in canon law from the Institut Catholique de Paris, and was ordained as a priest for the Diocese of Verdun in 1987. Leo XIV seems to favor the appointment of pro-homosexual canon lawyers. Public Profile In 2014, Francis appointed Monsignor Metz-Noblat as Bishop of the little-known diocese of Langres, in eastern France. The anti-Catholic magazine Golias described him once as "turning to literature... and terribly bored". He avoids the limelight and is reluctant to take strong public positions. However, he has been involved in one controversy: the baptism register reform in the French church. 2018 Proposal In December 2018, as president of the French bishops’ Council for questions of Canon Law, Bishop Metz-Noblat proposed changing baptismal records from 'father/mother' to 'parents or …More
Another member of the anti-church—the harlot dressed in purple and scarlet from Revelation chapter 17. This harlot anti-church is described as holding a golden cup filled with abominations and sexual immorality. The apostate church, now led by Prevost, is seducing and leading astray many nations and peoples.
On April 10, Pope Leo XIV has appointed Monsignor Isaac Jogues Kodjo Agbéménya Gaglo as the new Archbishop of Lomé, Togo. Biographical Outline Born on 7 October 1958 in Kpémé, he was ordained a priest by John Paul II in 1985. He completed his theological studies in Ouidah, Benin, and earned a doctorate in moral theology at the Jesuit-run University of Innsbruck, Austria (1992–1997). Gaglo served as a parish priest, diocesan consultor, and administrator of Aného before being appointed bishop of Aného in 2007. When he visited Geneva, Switzerland, in April 2019, on a pastoral trip to support Togolese priests working in the area, he was dressed in civilian clothes, wearing a light-colored turtleneck sweater with a light-colored blazer. Region Dominated by Vodun The Diocese of Aného is in southern Togo. About 40–60% of the population follows ancestral religious practices; a large share of these are connected to Vodun. In southern Togo, about 30–40% of the population are Catholics and …More

Today, the Vatican press speaker Matteo Bruni published a statement addressing recent media reports about a January meeting between Pentagon officials and then US Nuncio Christophe Cardinal Pierre. Bruni claims that the portrayal of the meeting in certain media “does not correspond to the truth in any way." He emphasized that the meeting was routine and part of the nuncio’s regular diplomatic responsibilities. Cardinal Pierre’s discussion with Elbridge Andrew Colby at the Pentagon was simply "an opportunity to exchange views on matters of mutual interest". The Vatican Press Office is not known for telling the truth. The Substack.com-account The Pillar reported on April 10 that the January meeting was "tense at times, characterizing some exchanges as aggressive", yet without threats. #newsJdymfwngfx
The meeting was in January. Yesterday (Apr 8), a Media outlet published an article. Purportedly about the January meeting, but Pope Leo said (Apr 7) about Trump's ending a civilization statement, "that threats against the population of Iran are unacceptable."

Since when does the Papal Nuncio meet “regularly” with a third-tier underling in the Defense Department of a major power? When did high ranking Vatican envoys start holding regularly scheduled “exchange opportunities” with governmental lackeys…particularly military ones?
This is the priest who died on the Titanic to hear confessions and administer last rites. Given the opportunity to board a lifeboat on two separate occasions, Father Thomas Byles firmly declined. He chose instead to stay behind, absolving sins and consoling the doomed passengers. Following the vessel's collision with the iceberg, he assembled the remaining crowds on the aft deck. Those who lived through the disaster recalled him standing bravely amid the panic, listening to confessions, granting collective absolution, and reciting the Rosary right up until the ocean claimed the stern. This is the type of story we should elevate, heroic virtue. May the Lord bless us with more holy men possessing the courage of Father Thomas Byles.
I was just mentioning him to my coworkers recently! What a true hero! Those locked in steerage were blessed to have the last rites! It was better for them to save their souls then end up losing them in the States! My blood boils when I think of those Catholics being murdered!
Professor Norman Finkelstein: “Israel is now a madman.” “It didn’t get its way with Iran, and so it is totally destroying Lebanon now.” “It is in a state of catatonic lunacy.” “I’ve said this for years. Now it’s the consensus.” “Israel is a lunatic state. A lunatic society.”
I Studied the Economic Fallout From World War I. This Could Be Worse Than We Expect. nytimes.com/2026/04/08/opinion/war-iran-economy-w… In 1910, a British journalist published “The Great Illusion,” one of the worst-timed best sellers in history. The author, Norman Angell, argued that the growing interconnection of the world economy meant that no one could ever truly win a world war. Even if Germany were to invade Britain and take all the gold held in the Bank of England, the integration of Europe’s banking systems guaranteed a financial crisis that would leave the Germans worse off than if they’d just stayed home. This fact did not make war impossible, Mr. Angell wrote. But it made conflict much more costly and destructive for everyone. Four years later, World War I began. In the hyperconnected world of 1914, the war’s shocks reverberated far beyond the battlefields, leaving enduring political and economic instability in their wake. Now that the United States and Iran have declared …More
