Cardinal Parolin Confirms Report on Vatican Mediation With Maduro

On Saturday, Vatican Secretary of State Cardinal Pietro Parolin confirmed that he tried to find a solution in Venezuela that would avoid bloodshed, including seeking an agreement with Nicolás Maduro and other representatives of the government. The Cardinal added that these efforts ultimately failed.
Speaking on the sidelines of an event, Parolin said: "We tried what also appeared in some newspapers". This was an indirect reference to earlier reporting by Washington Post about Vatican involvement in efforts to secure a safe passage for Maduro before his capture by the United States.
Cardinal Parolin added that the Vatican had always supported a peaceful solution, but that it eventually found itself faced with a fait accompli, meaning the situation had developed beyond what diplomacy could influence.
In short, Parolin’s Saturday remarks publicly confirmed that:
- The Vatican tried to broker a peaceful exit for Maduro
- This included negotiating directly or indirectly with Maduro and his …More

U.S. send a military ariplane and lands it in Toluca, Mexico, maximum alarm. D.T. is moving his cards to try another invasion as he has said so many times that Mexico, Canada, Colombia, Greenland are in his list. He is the prelude to what's to come when the Anti-Christ appears, as more innocent Americans keep falling victims of ICE, some not reported killings and others ending in hospitals because of the beatings and shootings, and other military craft being used by ICE. Trump is provoking to be able to call the insurrection act or to call martial law nation wide and kill at his pleasure as he has no values at all for human life. Civil war is coming, and WW 3 is at the door, the door is opening now, all of a sudden we will hear the bombs exploding and millions being killed.

LIFE AND LABORS of BISHOP BARAGA First Bishop of Marquette, Michigan
Fr. Chrysostom Verwyst, OFM
PDF
Frederic Baraga was born on June 29, 1797, in the manor house at Mala Vas (German: Kleindorf) near the village of Dobrnič in Lower Carniola, a province of the Duchy of Carniola in the Austrian Empire. Today it is part of the Municipality of Trebnje in Slovenia. He was baptized Irenaeus Fridericus Paraga at Saint George's Church in Dobrnič, but never used the name "Irenaeus".
Frederic was the fourth of five children born to Janez Baraga and Marija Katarina Jožefa née Jenčič. His sister Antonija Höffern became the first Slovenian woman to immigrate to the United States. Upon her father's death, Baraga's mother inherited an estate at Mala Vas and substantial fortune. She died in 1808, and her husband in 1812. Frederic spent his childhood in the house of Jurij Dolinar, a lay professor at the diocesan seminary at Ljubljana.
Between 1809 and 1815, during the Napoleonic Wars in Europe, France …More

Pedaling Away From “Illicit Religion”: China Turns Bicycle Races Into Propaganda Arenas

In Yiwu, Zhejiang, participants in a sports event are indoctrinated against the “xie jiao” while cycling up the hills.
by Qi Junzao
The Yivu race: anti-xie-jiao propaganda is not far away.

On December 14, the city of Yiwu in Zhejiang
province hosted what might have been a perfectly ordinary sporting event: a cycling hill‑climb invitational. One thousand riders gathered at the scenic Shili Taohua Wu area to test their stamina on the winding Yan’kou Lake track. But in China, no public gathering is too innocent to escape the heavy hand of propaganda.
Suddenly, the event was transformed into a “sports + anti-xie‑jiao extravaganza.”
For readers unfamiliar with the term, “xie jiao” is often translated as “cults” or “evil cults,” but this is not accurate. It designates in China since the Middle Ages “organizations spreading heterodox teachings,” and the powers that be decide which teachings are “heterodox.” Today, it is a deliberately broad and elastic label wielded by the Chinese …

Holy Land Patriarchs Denounce "Christian Zionism" as Harmful Ideology

The Patriarchs and Heads of the Churches in Jerusalem denounce “Christian Zionism” as a harmful ideology.
In a joint statement on January 17 (below), they write: “Recent activities undertaken by local individuals who advance damaging ideologies, such as Christian Zionism, mislead the public, sow confusion, and harm the unity of our flock. These undertakings have found favor among certain political actors in Israel and beyond who seek to push a political agenda which may harm the Christian presence in the Holy Land and the wider Middle East.”
The Patriarchs and Heads of Churches further note with concern that these individuals have welcomed at official levels both locally and internationally.

Worth noting this has always been the Catholic view Vatican in 1985: "The existence of the State of Israel and its political options should be envisaged not in a perspective which is in itself religious, but in their reference to the common principles of international law."

A Statement from the Patriarchs and Heads of Churches in Jerusalem:
The Patriarchs and Heads of Churches in the Holy Land affirm before the faithful and before the world that the flock of Christ in this land is entrusted to the Apostolic Churches which have borne their sacred ministry across centuries with steadfast devotion. Recent activities undertaken by local individuals who advance damaging ideologies, such as Christian Zionism, mislead the public, sow confusion, and harm the unity of our flock. These undertakings have found favor among certain political actors in Israel and beyond who seek to push a political agenda which may harm the Christian presence in the Holy Land and the wider Middle East. Holy Scripture teaches us that “we, though many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another” (Romans 12:5). To claim authority outside the communion of the Church is to wound the unity of the faithful and burden the pastoral mission entrusted to the historic churches …More

WATCH: Cardinals in Conflict – The Future of the Latin Mass and Synodality

A battle royale is underway inside the Vatican—and the stakes couldn’t be higher. On this edition of The Prayerful Posse, Raymond Arroyo, Fr. Gerald Murray, and Robert Royal break down new details from the recent meeting of cardinals in Rome, where divisions over synodality and the Traditional Latin Mass are now boiling into open conflict.
Cardinal Joseph Zen stunned the room by denouncing what he called “Bergoglian synodality,” warning the process has become manipulated and even “insulting” to bishops—raising urgent questions about authority, hierarchy, and whether the Church is being pushed toward confusion and division.
Meanwhile, Cardinal Arthur Roche issued a sharp letter attacking the Traditional Latin Mass, arguing the conflict is not about preference—it’s about the Church’s identity. The Posse explains why this fight matters, what Vatican II actually called for, and why this liturgical showdown isn’t going away.
Plus: the Vatican financial trial involving Cardinal Becciu,…

This Synod idea with Laity present is just about to blow up in leo's face.
The German and Spanish Church want to push the envelope to be all inclusive in their ideologies, and WILL in fact erupt into chaos when leo tries to stamp it out.
The problem in the Church is the financial handcuffs that every Bishop and Cardinal has that prevents them from speaking out on this matter.
A fine example is when Cardinal Burke was told by the Vatican to exit and move out of the Vatican property apartment you occupy.
To prevent this from happening, the well to do laity with additional living quarters, should contact their favorite Cardinal or Bishop and offer their services.
Just imagine - having a Cardinal say daily Liturgy at your abode!

January 19th - Saint of the Day: Saints Marius, Martha, Audifax, and Abachum, Martyrs
oFur names. One decision. Zero compromise. Saints Marius, Martha, Audifax, and Abachum (Abaco) are remembered on January 19 as Roman martyrs who refused to bow to idols when the empire demanded it. This is not soft, aesthetic Christianity. This is faith with a spine. Here is the wild part: Catholic tradition remembers them for showing mercy when mercy could get you killed. They cared for persecuted Christians and honored the bodies of martyrs, even when doing the right thing made them a target. And their story hits even harder because the Church is honest about what is known and what is tradition. The exact persecution era is debated, but the core is crystal clear: they chose Jesus over survival. They did not negotiate with lies. They did not trade truth for comfort. They stayed faithful as a household. If faith feels pressured to stay quiet, their witness is a wake-up call. Holiness is not vibes. …More
