Cardinal Pietro Parolin told journalists in Rome today that he does not know when or how the excommunications of the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (FSSPX) will take place. “Despite this serious wound I hope that we can find ways to resolve this problem.” He also said that he was "deeply pained" by today's episcopal ordinations: "It is a schismatic act."
From Delia Gallagher: Vatican Secretary of State, Cardinal Pietro Parolin, says he is “deeply pained” by the SSPX ordinations today. “It is a schismatic act” he does not know when or how the excommunications will take place. “Despite this serious wound I hope that we can find ways to resolve this problem”
The episcopal consecrations in Ecône, Switzerland, today should lead the Church to reconsider the restrictions on the Mass in the Roman rite, Cardinal Gerhard Müller told IlGiornale.it on July 1. The restrictions imposed by Traditionis Custodes (2021) have only strengthened the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (FSSPX) by giving them "a symbol of dissent against Rome". They have "almost served as propaganda" for them. According to Cardinal Müller, Traditionis Custodes "has not had a positive effect": "Using an authoritarian approach to demand blind obedience is not our way." He praised Benedict XVI's Summorum Pontificum (2007) for bringing "a great deal of peace" to the Church, adding: "One cannot prohibit the rite in its ancient form." The ancient Mass cannot be harmful when "the saints and the Fathers of the Church celebrated in this form." Cardinal Müller rejected the claim that those attached to the ancient rite reject the Second Vatican Council, arguing instead that the …Дэлгэрэнгүй
"Modernist Church Kills Everything It Touches: The newly ordained FSSPX Bishop Michael Goldade criticized the Church during today's Vespers: "If the Catholic Church in her tradition brings forth life, the modernist church is a desert. It kills. It kills everything that it touches. It kills the supernatural life. It kills the sources of grace. It dries up everything because it has placed man in the place of God and therefore turned away from the sources of life."
Bishop Michael Goldade of the SSPX says his consecration and that of three other bishops today are signs "of the vitality of Holy Mother the Church."
July 1st - Saint of the Day: Saint Oliver Plunkett, Bishop & Martyr In 1681, a Catholic Archbishop was dragged into an English courtroom and convicted of high treason. The judge announced his actual crime out loud from the bench. "The bottom of your treason was your setting up your false religion." In other words, he was sentenced to be hanged, drawn, and quartered for being Catholic and doing his job. His name was Saint Oliver Plunkett, Archbishop of Armagh and Primate of All Ireland, and his story is one of the most dramatic, courageous, and deeply moving in the history of the Catholic Church. Here is what makes his story truly extraordinary. He confirmed over 48,000 Catholics in four years, traveling on foot through Irish mountains and rain with barely any food. He founded the very first integrated school in Irish history, where Catholic and Protestant children were educated together, in the middle of violent religious persecution. He personally sought …Дэлгэрэнгүй
Yesterday, Leo XIV wrote to the Priestly Fraternity of St. Pius X. He acknowledged the FSSPX's devotion to Tradition, the liturgy, and priestly formation. He begs them to "turn back" from a prospective "schismatic act", warning of its grave consequences while reaffirming the Church's openness to dialogue and reconciliation. The letter. To the Reverend Father Davide Pagliarani Superior General of the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X With a paternal heart, and aware of the responsibility entrusted to me by the Lord as the Successor of the Apostle Peter, I address you and, through you, the bishops, priests, seminarians and faithful connected to the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X. The Church recognizes the devotion to liturgical life, commitment to priestly formation, apostolic zeal and desire for fidelity to Tradition that characterize many people and communities connected to your Fraternity. This has motivated the attentive and generous attitude that my Predecessors have consistently …Дэлгэрэнгүй
This is the same apostate, impostor, and gay activist who reinforces Muslims in their idolatry of the false god Allah and in their rejection of the Holy Trinity—deceiving them by telling them that their idolatrous mosque is a "holy place"—and who confirms in heresy, schism, and apostasy the heretical, apostate Lutheran woman and gay activist who poses as a bishop.
This is political strategy. It has nothing to do with being a "Shepherd." Enough dialogue. We've been dialoguing for 60 years. "By their fruits you will know them." Who would have guessed Our Lord was prophesying with a double entendre.
Thomas's doubt helps us believe... July 3 - Feast of St. Thomas the Apostle Dear brothers and sisters, the doubt of St. Thomas the Apostle, whose feast we celebrate on July 3, who, to believe in the Resurrection of Jesus, wanted to see and personally touch the Risen One, can help this poor, once-Christian West of ours return to the roots of its greatness. Faith is a human act (CCC 154). In our hyper-modern, and unfortunately no longer Christian, Western world, we all feel, especially young people, somehow represented by St. Thomas, in our need to "see and touch," firsthand, in order to believe. Jesus knows very well how we are made, and the entire Gospel of John tells us how the disciples come to faith in Jesus through seeing, touching, and reflecting on the signs He performed. The supernatural gift of faith not only does not exclude, but requires the participation of the whole person, in all their dimensions. A true experience of faith, therefore, presupposes the participation of the …Дэлгэрэнгүй
On June 27, an Asian cardinal criticized at the consistory the continuing restrictions on the Mass in the Roman rite, reports IlGiornale.it. The Cardinal argued that if they were lifted, it would be much easier to attract faithful prepared to leave the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X. There are three dozen Asian cardinals. The most outspoken in support of the ancient Roman rite are Cardinals Malcolm Ranjith of Colombo, Sri Lanka, and William Goh of Singapore. Picture: AI, #newsFeyawfwlyc
Aaron the High Priest | The First High Priest of Israel | Feast Day July 1st Today we remember Aaron, whose feast day is observed on July 1 in the Roman Martyrology. Aaron was the older brother of Moses and played a vital role in God's plan to free the Israelites from slavery in Egypt. When Moses felt unable to speak before Pharaoh, Aaron became his spokesman. Later, God appointed Aaron as the first High Priest of Israel, giving him the responsibility of leading the people in worship and offering sacrifices on their behalf. Aaron's ministry included: Leading Israel's worship Offering sacrifices to God Teaching God's law Serving God's people as High Priest Although Aaron was chosen by God, Scripture also shows that he was not without faults. He failed during the incident of the golden calf, yet he repented and continued serving faithfully. His life reminds us that God can work through imperfect people who return to Him with humble hearts. Aaron's priesthood ultimately …Дэлгэрэнгүй
Aaron - Gedenktag katholisch: 1. Juli erster Priester * um 1529 v. Chr. in Ägypten † um 1452 v. Chr. Aaron war der älteste Sohn von Amram und Jochabed, der Bruder von Mose und Mirjam aus dem Stamm Levi. Seine Frau hieß Elisabeth, seine Söhne waren Nadab, Abtu, Eleazar und Ithamar (2. Mose 6, 23). Als Mose das Volk Israel aus Ägypten herausführen sollte, sich aber die für die Begegnung mit dem Pharao nötige Redegabe nicht zutraute, verwies Gott ihn auf den beredsamen Aaron, der den Pharao bewegen sollte, das Volk ziehen zu lassen (2. Mose 4, 14). Nach dem Auszug wurde Aaron mit seinen Söhnen zum Priestertum berufen (2. Mose 29, 4); Gott bestätigte dies durch das Wunder, dass sein erstes Opfer vom himmlischen Feuer verzehrt wurde und sein Stab ergrünte, blühte und Mandeln trug (4. Mose 17). Als Mose länger auf dem Berg Sinai blieb als erwartet, zweifelte das Volk an seiner Rückkehr und Aaron ließ ein goldenes Kalb, einen Stiergott, anfertigen, den das Volk nun verehrte (2. Mose …Дэлгэрэнгүй
The Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X. (FSSPX) “sincerely regrets that, due to exceptional circumstances, these consecrations had to be conferred without the authorization of the Holy Father”, the general house said in a communiqué after the episcopal consecrations today in Ecône, Switzerland. “It particularly regrets that the Society’s Superior General did not have the opportunity to meet personally with His Holiness Pope Leo XIV to explain, in a spirit of filial devotion, the grave reasons that made this ceremony necessary.” At the same time, the statement speaks of a profound joy inspired by these episcopal consecrations. #newsVluwxevdyp

Burning Crosses at a Polish Festival: On 26 June, during the Bangarang heavy metal festival in Chwałkowo, Poland, a stage performance included the burning of wooden crosses.

Płonące krzyże na satanistycznym festiwalu Na festiwalu "Bangarang" w Chwałkowie który odbył się w miniony weekend doszło do skandalicznego wydarzenia i znieważenia chrześcijańskiego symbolu religijnego. Został spalony Krzyż. Pytanie dlaczego nikt o tym nie piszę i nie mówi? Impreza dofinansowana przez lokalne samorządy, promowana głośno w mediach.. ogromny skandal na skalę Polski, a tutaj cisza Chodzi o festiwal Bangarang7, który odbył się w miniony weekend w Chwałkowie. To wydarzenie od kilku lat przyciąga fanów metalu, punka, rocka i hardcore’u. Festiwal organizuje Stowarzyszenie „Dżentelmeni Metalu”, które z pola kukurydzy stworzyło miejsce rozpoznawalne w środowisku miłośników ciężkiego grania.
A firefighter stood by for fire safety. Local politicians and officials condemned the act as blasphemous and disrespectful of religious feeling. And yet it was still allowed. Even with a firefighter to make sure it doesn't get out of control. Their only real concern. A lot of people get away with this sort of thing in Poland like Blaspheming against Catholics and GOD. Very few are even fined. Then below we have this mess in Poland. No wonder they don't stop burning of crosses and filthy plays. You will never see this in Russia! It's a crime, and a serious crime to attack any religion in Russia. They won't pretend to be outraged. THEY WILL BE! And off to jail you go! Freedom of religion is one thing they take very seriously. They got caught in their own laws trying to ban freemasons. But working on how to change it without hurting others. That will be one huge challenge they have on their hands. Thankfully there isn't many at all. About 1.000 +. This is why many hate Russia. She destroys …Дэлгэрэнгүй

#nurmut - Ökumenischer CSD-Gottesdienst machte Hoffnung sichtbar
„Hab nur Mut, steh auf!“ – dieser Zuspruch aus der Geschichte des blinden Bartimäus (Markus 10,46–52) stand im Mittelpunkt des diesjährigen ökumenischen CSD-Gottesdienstes. Unter dem Motto #nurmut feierten zahlreiche Meschen einen Gottesdienst, der Mut machte, berührte und Gemeinschaft erfahrbar werden ließ. Menschen aus der LGBTQIA+-Community, Freund:innen, Familienangehörige und viele Allies (Personen, die selbst nicht queer sind, aber sich sichtbar und aktiv für die Rechte, Sicherheit und Würde von queeren Personen einsetzen) kamen zusammen, um gemeinsam zu beten, zu singen und ein Zeichen für eine Kirche zu setzen, in der Vielfalt ihren Platz hat. Die Predigt hielt Pfarrer Samuel Ebner. Ausgehend von der Geschichte des Bartimäus sprach er über den Mut, die eigene Stimme zu erheben, auch dann, wenn andere zum Schweigen auffordern. Bartimäus ließ sich nicht beirren und rief weiter nach Jesus – ein Bild, das viele Menschen aus der Community bis heute bewegt. Der Ruf „Hab nur Mut …
Leo XIV has overhauled the Vatican's financial watchdog, replacing its long-standing board-led structure with a director appointed directly by the pope. The reform, contained in a chirograph published June 30, introduces a new statute for the Authority for Financial Supervision and Information (ASIF). This body is responsible for combating money laundering and supervising the Vatican's financial system. The biggest change is institutional. Until now, ASIF was governed by a president and board - a model resembling those used by many central banks and independent financial regulators. The new statute abolishes that structure. Instead, ASIF will be headed by a director, assisted by a deputy director, both appointed by the pope for five-year terms. The authority's annual report and budget will also be submitted directly to the Council for the Economy. The statute replaces the previous board with a single papally appointed leadership, a governance model that more closely resembles that of …Дэлгэрэнгүй
