On Thursday, the Spanish Civil Guard arrested Laura García de Viedma, abbess of the Sedevacantist Poor Clares at the Belorado monastery. The investigation concerns the alleged sale of artworks and heritage items belonging to the convent. According to Spanish media reports, officers entered the monastery early in the day despite attempts by members of the community to block access. Items from the monastery have reportedly surfaced on the antiques market. Some of the convent's gold, totalling 1.73 kg, was reportedly sold for around €130,000. In recent months, the courts have ordered the nuns to leave Belorado and rejected their attempt to register as a civil association owning the monastery. Most of the group now reside in a monastery in Orduña, having moved several elderly sisters there ahead of the eviction process in Belorado. #newsWeubvnpjjk
In a remarkable video, a young woman named “Laura” who converted from Buddhism to Catholicism in 2018 pleads with Pope Leo XIV to be faithful to his role as Christ’s representative on Earth and urged him to stop being “confusing and abstract.” “When I heard that the world was receiving a new Pope, I was very curious, was very hopeful to see what was to come,” she began.
Cardinal Tucho Fernández clarified his November 4 clarification Mater Populi Fidelis on the Marian title Co-Redemptrix. He was asked about it by DianeMontagna.Substack.com after Tuesday’s press conference. Regarding his formulation that “it is always inappropriate” to use the title Co-Redemptrix, Tucho claimed now that it is "not meant to judge the past". However, "from now on" it will not be used "either in the liturgy, that is, in liturgical texts, or in the official documents of the Holy See", he believes. "If you, together with your group of friends, believe you understand well the true meaning of this expression, have read the document, and see that its positive aspects are also affirmed there, and you wish to express precisely that within your prayer group or among friends, you may use the title—but it will not be used officially, that is, either in liturgical texts or in official documents." Tucho’s problem is "not its underlying doctrine", but the term itself that risks "…More
@victimsoul the Lavender Mafia doesn’t believe in anything but themselves and their agenda. They hate the Blessed Virgin Mary, they hate her son Jesus.
[Saint John of the Cross – XVI Century AD; Fontiveros, Crown of Castile, Spanish Monarchy/Ubeda, , Crown of Castile, Spanish Monarchy; (Aged 49); Priest, Mystic, Writer, Doctor of the Church] “ARGUMENT ALL the doctrine whereof I intend to treat in this Ascent of Mount Carmel is included in the following stanzas, and in them is also described the manner of ascending to the summit of the Mount, which is the high estate of perfection which we here call union of the soul with God. And because I must continually base upon them that which I shall say, I have desired to set them down here together, to the end that all the substance of that which is to be written may be seen and comprehended together; although it will be fitting to set down each stanza separately before expounding it, and likewise the lines of each stanza, according as the matter and the exposition require. The poem, then, runs as follows: STANZAS Wherein the soul sings of the happy chance which it had in passing through the …More
"4. This light guided me More surely than the light of noonday, To the place where he (well I knew who!) was awaiting me - A place where none appeared."
Quote: "I believe Pope Francis’ Traditionis Custodes was inspired by the Holy Spirit." Now one sees why the modernists HAD to seize the papacy to get the remaining faithful in line!
An Adelaide man who filmed an Indian migrant defecating in public has been arrested by the Aus Fed Police for using a carriage service to menace and harrass, Home Affairs Minister Tony Burke confirmed. 'We have zero tolerance for racial hatred in Modern Australia'
It’s not enough to reduce their countries to ……holes, now they’re working on us…What’s so different from them and us comes down to respect for others, never mind respect for themselves…Are they civilized or just following their animal instincts…even dogs here are reluctant to defecate inside ….they wait for someone to walk them outside and then that someone scoops…out of respect for the dog and the rest of us. Is that such a difficult concept?
THANKSGIVING 2025 Happy Thanksgiving Day! Here's a wonderful prayer I recorded for the occasion, attributed to St. Thomas Aquinas: I praise, glorify, and bless You, my God for the immeasurable blessings shown to me who am unworthy of them. I praise Your compassion extended to me for so long a time and Your gentleness appearing in the guise of correction. I praise Your tenderness calling out to me, Your kindness welcoming me, and Your mercy forgiving my sins. I praise Your goodness given to me beyond what I deserve and Your forbearance that does not remember grievances. I praise Your humility that consoles me, Your patience that shelters me, Your eternity that preserves me, and Your truth that rewards me. What can I proclaim, my God, about Your ineffable generosity? For You call the fugitive back. You welcome the one who returns. You sustain the faltering. You gladden the despondent. You prod the negligent. You arm the warrior. You crown the victor. You spurn not the repentant sinner. …More
First non-European bishop appointed in Germany. With the appointment of Joshy George Pottackal, O.Carm., the German Catholic Church marks a quiet but historic turning point. Born in Kerala, India, and today a German citizen, Pottackal has spent most of his priestly life serving communities in the Diocese of Mainz — from youth ministry to parish leadership and seminary formation. His selection as auxiliary bishop signals something more than a personal milestone: it reflects a Church that increasingly mirrors the global reality of its faithful. Pottackal’s pastoral style is known to be grounded, people-focused, and refreshingly unpretentious. His path — India to Germany, student to pastor, citizen to bishop — embodies the kind of rooted openness that Germany’s Catholic landscape has long needed but rarely seen in leadership.

Contrary to the optimistic picture presented by Vatican News, the Vatican’s 2024 financial statement shows an improved but still structurally weak fiscal position. The Curia’s operating deficit narrowed from –€52.4 million in 2022 to –€33.5 million in 2024, but the deficit remains recurring. The year’s small surplus of €1.6 million was achieved mainly through non-repeatable factors: higher donations and a sharp rise in financial gains linked to the sale of long-held investments. Key cost pressures continue to grow. Personnel expenses increased steadily from €158 million (2022) to €175.4 million (2024) despite stated containment efforts. Real-estate maintenance costs jumped from €13.2 million to €24.2 million in one year, without a matching rise in property income. The Vatican also acknowledges that much of 2024’s improved result came from “punctual” financial effects unlikely to recur.
“The reason the Church’s leaders persecute the most faithful Catholics is that, broadly speaking, the leadership of the Catholic Church on earth at this time is dominated by a network of active homosexuals and theological modernists”, philosopher Peter Kwasniewski wrote on his Substack.com-account TraditionSanity.com on November 20. He added that they in the network rely on one another’s support: “We all know individual good bishops or cardinals but such exceptions are a controlled opposition, with very limited mobility.” Kwasniewski explains that their “religion” is one of self-actualization and self-regard: “Theirs is the fashionable subjectivism and flexible relativism of the postmodern West, where ‘anything goes’ - except, of course, traditional faith and morals, for this faith and these morals would eliminate them ...” The more fruitful the Mass in the Roman rite is, the more furious they will be: “It’s precisely because of this fruitfulness, not in spite of it, that its …More

Pope Leo XIV reinstated the pastoral district of central Rome, which Pope Francis had dissolved in October 2024. The decree, published on Wednesday, is titled Immota Manet ('It remains unchanged'). The restored district encompasses Rome’s historic city centre, characterised by its dense concentration of churches, and is home to most of the city's clergy. Francis distributed this territory among the city's four outer districts, claiming that it should not become a 'museum'. Leo XIV argued that the city centre forms a coherent whole. Francis's change was met with strong resistance from the clergy and was reluctantly implemented.

In a separate post on X late on Tuesday, Tinubu said he has ordered a full security cordon over the forests in Kwara State in response to the kidnappings and acts of terrorism. “The Air Force is to maintain continuous surveillance over the most remote areas, synchronizing operations with ground units to effectively identify, isolate, disrupt, and neutralize all hostile elements,” he wrote.
