‘Life of Mary’ by Bl. Anne Catherine Emmerich; Part II; Chapter 1 ~ ‘2. SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION…’; pages 47-54; points 2.1-2.4

[Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich – XVIII-XIX Century AD; Flamschen, Holy Roman Empire/Dulmen, German Confederation; Mystic; Stigmatist, Writer]
“II. THE IMMACULATE CONCEPTION
“2. SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE CONCEPTION OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN.

[Here follow various visions which Catherine Emmerich communicated at different times in the course of her yearly meditations during the octave of the feast of the Immaculate Conception. Though they do not directly continue the story of the Blessed Virgin’s life, yet they throw a remarkable light on the mystery of her election, preparation, and veneration as the vessel of grace. As these visions were related by Catherine Emmerich in the midst of much suffering and many interruptions, it is not surprising if they are somewhat fragmentary in character.]

"2.1 THE ANGELS ARE SHOWN THE RESTORATION OF MANKIND.
I saw in a wonderful picture that God showed the angels how it was His will to restore mankind after the Fall. At first sight I did not understand this picture, but soon it became quite clear to me. I saw the Throne of God and the Holy Trinity, and at the same time a movement within that Trinity. I saw the nine choirs of angels, and how God announced to them in what manner it was His will to restore the fallen human race. I saw an inexpressible joy among the angels over this. I was now shown in a number of symbolic pictures the unfolding of God’s designs for the salvation of mankind. I saw these pictures appearing among the nine choirs of angels and following each other in a kind of historical sequence. I saw the angels helping to make these pictures, protecting and defending them. I cannot now remember for certain the order in which they appeared, but will tell in God’s name what I can still recollect. I saw a mountain as of precious …

Bishop Strickland Lectures Leo XIV on Sexual Sins: Not of Less Importance

On 24 April, Bishop Joseph Strickland posted a comment on X regarding Pope Leo XIV's response to a question on blessings for homosexual couples in the Archdiocese of Munich during the flight from Africa to Rome.
Monsignor Strickland called the distinction between 'formal' and 'informal' blessings, as referenced in 'Fiducia Supplicans', confusing because sin cannot be blessed.
Likewise, the suggestion that there are 'greater and more important' moral issues than sexual morality must be understood with great care: "The Church has never taught that sins against chastity are of little importance."
"Sacred Scripture and the constant teaching of the Church affirm that sexual morality touches deeply on the dignity of the human person, the sanctity of marriage, and the proper ordering of love."
Leo XIV had said that there are much greater and more important issues, such as justice, equality, and the freedom of men and women and of religion.
Bishop Strickland responded: "The moral law is not …More

Remembering the dead - Romanian Orthodox Way

Coliva (or Koliva) is a traditional Eastern Orthodox ritual food made of boiled wheat berries, sugar, nuts, and flavorings, primarily used to honor the dead. It is served at funerals and memorial services in countries like Romania, Greece, and Bulgaria to symbolize the resurrection, the cycle of life, and Christian hope, often garnished with a cross of candy or powder.
Usage: It is brought to the church, blessed during the service, and then shared among family, friends, and sometimes the community in memory of the loved one.
Not just at funerals, but also for the 40 day and yearly remembrance.

I can confirm that story about Sarajevo firsthand. I can also say that during those years, God blessed us with an abundance of food from nature. The soil was very fertile—potatoes grew better than ever (almost twentyfold), and other vegetables were just as plentiful. The same was true for fruits like apples, pears, plums, and others, which we used to make delicious jams and get plenty of vitamins from.

Chinese military scientists have been dying mysteriously - as 11 US nuclear and space experts die or go missing

At least nine scientists have mysteriously died in China as speculation grows over the deaths and disappearances of 11 American scientists.
In many of the Chinese cases, the causes of death are recorded as accidents, sickness, or unexplained incidents.
And while these explanations appear straightforward individually, taken together they are drawing increased scrutiny.
One of the most puzzling cases is that of Feng Yanghe, a 38-year-old defence technology professor who died in July 2023.
He had reportedly been working on simulations related to a potential Taiwan invasion before his death in a late-night car crash in Beijing, Newsweek reports.
Official accounts state that Feng had been leaving a work meeting when the crash occurred at around 2.35 am.
But speculation grew after his obituary described the scientist as having been 'sacrificed while performing official duties,' wording that some observers found unusual for what was described as a traffic accident.
Further attention was …

Romanian Police Enter Catholic Church During Mass to Enforce Eviction of Norbertine Abbot

Oradea, Romania // Armed Romanian gendarmes and police entered a Catholic Church during the celebration of Mass on Tuesday morning, April 14, in Oradea, initiating an eviction enforcement against Abbot Anzelm Fejes, superior of the 900-year-old Norbertine Abbey of Oradea, and seizing parts of the monastic enclosure.
The unconstitutional intrusion and criminal seizure of the monastery took place despite the fact that the case remains under judicial appeal and has generated statements of formal legal protection from Romania’s highest state authorities and those of the Norbertine Order in Rome.

According to Krónika, the enforcement began shortly after 9:00 a.m., when a judicial bailiff, accompanied by nearly 100 gendarmes and police, entered the Church of Our Lady of Sorrows while Mass was underway, during the time of Holy Communion. The Catholic faithful had formed a line at the entrance. The bailiff proceeded inside despite their presence.
The liturgy continued uninterrupted. The …More

Leo XIV Appoints Coadjutor, 54, Amid Accusations Against Cardinal, 59

Today, Pope Leo XIV has appointed Jesuit priest Joseph Samedi, 54, as Coadjutor Archbishop of Bangui.
The appointment places Fr Samedi alongside Cardinal Dieudonné Nzapalainga, 59, who is only five years his senior.
Background to the Appointment
Cardinal Nzapalainga has led the Archdiocese of Bangui since 2012 and was made cardinal by Pope Francis in 2016.
He rose to international prominence for his interfaith work during the Central African Republic’s civil conflict, particularly through the 'Plateforme des Confessions Religieuses de Centrafrique', a coalition of Christian and Muslim leaders promoting reconciliation.
In recent years, however, local and regional reporting has pointed to growing tensions between the Archdiocese of Bangui and the Nunciature in the Central African Republic.
The most sweeping allegations have come from journalist Jean-Paul Naïba, who accuses the cardinal of greed, financial misconduct, nepotism, and misuse of church-affiliated NGOs.
Regional outlets including …More

France Deploys Nuclear-Armed Rafale Jets to Poland to Simulate Attacks on Russia & Belarus

France has deployed a squadron of nuclear-capable Dassault Rafale fighter jets to Poland, conducting high-intensity drills that simulate tactical nuclear strikes near the borders of Russia and Belarus. The aircraft, equipped with the supersonic ASMP-A cruise missile capable of delivering a 300-kiloton payload, are operating out of Polish airbases in a move that signals a hardening of Europe’s independent nuclear deterrent. While the French Ministry of Armed Forces emphasizes the drills are "defensive exercises," the forward deployment into Poland represents a strategic shift toward a "European nuclear shield" that operates outside the traditional U.S.-led NATO nuclear sharing framework. Moscow has denounced the move as a direct provocation and "encirclement," as Polish officials reportedly explore deeper integration with France’s nuclear arsenal to counter the evolving threat from the war in Ukraine.

The worst PM in Canada's history now lectures the world on good governance

By far the worst PM in Canada's history is now lecturing the world on good governance. If it weren't real, this would be humorous. Yes, former PM Justin Trudeau recently spoke in Singapore claiming the old international ties are no longer useful for world trade. There is a need to change economic relationships because of the President of the United States Donald Trump.
So, Canada is now forced to economically get closer to Europe and China for trade. Trudeau never tells the audience that he was responsible for the cold shoulder Trump has given Canada. Trudeau and now PM Marc Carney have failed miserably to work effectively with Trump. They both have put their personal hurt feelings and serving the WEF ahead of Canada's security and economic prosperity. This is a mark of failed and incompetent political leadership.
Whatever feminist, blackface Trudeau charged to give the speech is too much. His inept ideas are not worth a penny. Yes, he talks lot, but in the end he says little of use.…

"Kwasniewski’s program for a new Church constitution (after years of heavy hints) has finally seen the light of day as a Manifesto translated from German and heavily inspired by Georg Hegel. This turgid text might only be closely examined by those sympathetic or scandalised enough to be bothered (it’s a pity Luther is not around – he could have helped with the prose), but it leaves one thing clear: Kwasniewski is no traditional Catholic....It is also for the reader to fathom how Kwasniewski’s declaration of neutrality1 concerning the SSPX consecrations can be reconciled with his total support for a Manifesto centred on condemning these consecrations and ridiculing their justification."

The high church modernist Synodal Way to “complete” Vatican II - Pax Orbis

Vinicius returns to the theme of High Church Modernism (see previous articles here and here) – that incoherent ideology found among many influential ‘traditionalist’ commentators but which is in fact a blend of occult mysticism, Vatican II ecclesiology and the rejection of the decrees of the dogmatic First Vatican Council.
by Vinicius
For Gallican “reformers” the Catholic Church has been all wrong for most of the last thousand years. Their unoriginal solution (in view of Lutheranism, Gallicanism, Anglicanism etc) is to go back to the “early Church”.
Writers like Peter Kwasniewski, Sebastian Morello, and Tim Flanders can’t be sure exactly what period has to be dusted off or what this means; the only dogma seems to be anti-papalism and open-ended radical change to the constitution and even doctrine of the Church.
Traditional rite Catholics who endorse the unorthodox novelties and equivocations in Vatican II texts have been thrown completely off-balance by the Society of Saint Pius …

The darkest point of the present society.

April 21, 1923 Volume 15
The darkest point of the present society.
This morning my always lovable Jesus transported me outside of myself, to a place in which one could see flags being waved, and parades in which all classes of people were participating, including priests. As though offended by all this, Jesus wanted to clasp the creatures in His hand to crush them; and I, taking His hand in mine, clasped Him to myself, saying to Him: “My Jesus, what are You doing? After all, they don’t seem to be doing evil things, but rather, good things. It seems that the Church is uniting with your enemies of before, and these no longer show that aversion for dealing with people from the Church; on the contrary, they call them to bless their flags. Is this not a good sign? And You, instead of being pleased with it, seem to get offended.” And Jesus, sighing and highly afflicted, told me: “My daughter, how you are deceiving yourself. This is the darkest point of the present society, and their union …More

Same-sex blessings issue highlights need for bishops’ conferences’ doctrinal authority

Cardinal Robert Prevost, prefect of the Dicastery for Bishops, speaks during a synod press briefing at the Holy See Press Office, Oct. 23, 2024.
By Felipe Salvosa II
October 24, 2024
VATICAN– Reservations posed by African bishops to a Vatican document allowing non-liturgical blessings to couples in irregular situations, including same-sex couples, have highlighted the need to give more doctrinal authority to national bishops’ conferences.
This was emphasized on Wednesday, Oct. 23, by Cardinal Robert Prevost, the Augustinian prefect of the Dicastery for Bishops.
Cultural differences may be one of the reasons why “each episcopal conference needs to have a certain authority, in terms of saying, ‘how are we going to understand this in the concrete reality in which we’re living,?’” he told a press briefing at the sidelines of the synod.
Prevost, the American former head of the Augustinian order and former bishop of Chiclayo in Peru, specifically cited the row over Fiducia supplicans, the …

Apostate Robert Prevost endorses Bergoglio’s heresies: Prevost once again confirms that he possesses the element of obstinacy which establishes him as a manifest, pertinacious, and formal heretic.
The Magisterium of the Church has decreed in perpetuity that the elevation of a heretic as Pope is invalid and null.
The Church also teaches that the sin of heresy, schism, and apostasy separates the heretic from the Mystical Body of Christ—which is His Church—and that he who is not a member of the Church cannot be the Head of the Church.

Deep mourning after a 17-year-old Egyptian stabs 25-year-old Gabriele Vaccaro to death with a screwdriver to the neck – Allah's Willing Executioners

25-year-old Gabriele Vaccaro, pictured right, was reportedly murdered by a 17-year-old Egyptian. Now, his family and community are in mourning.
A 17-year-old Egyptian migrant has been arrested for fatally stabbing 25-year-old Gabriele Vaccaro with a screwdriver in a parking lot in Pavia, Italy. The argument was reportedly over a girl, with the Egyptian suspect already having a criminal record for illegal possession of a weapon.
The incident, which occurred on April 19, began with a dispute in a bar over a girl, with the Egyptian later targeting Vaccaro, originally from Sicily, in a nearby parking lot.
The events occurred at 4:00 a.m. when the suspect stabbed the victim in the abdomen with what investigators believe was a screwdriver.
The injury was considered to be “deceptive,” as it did not shed excessive amounts of blood but appeared instead as a deep puncture wound. As a result, it may have concealed the severity of the internal damage.
The stabbing attack occurred in front of a …

'I acted to protect my child': Austrian mom fined for keeping son from explicit sex ed workshop - LifeSite

Thu Apr 23, 2026 - 7:08 am EDT
(
LifeSiteNews) — A mother in Austria has been fined for temporarily keeping her 10-year-old son out of school during a sexual education class.
Michaela Vamos-Karandish was fined 110 euros ($128) for keeping her young son out of school for four days in March 2025 after an external sex education workshop was to take place. The workshop’s content had not been disclosed to parents beforehand. In addition, numerous sex education books – the content of which some parents found questionable – were made available in the classroom for unsupervised use by students.
According to a report by ADF International, the materials included books such as Lina, the Explorer and My First Sex Education Book, which contain explicit depictions of sexual practices.
Some of the books also depicted modern views on gender and family, incompatible with nature and traditional teaching. The mother argued that these violated the principle of neutrality in public schools. In a book …
