Genesis 3:9-15, 20 “I heard you in the garden; but I was afraid.” Fear (evil) is the cause of all our separations from God. Fear; anguish, worry, anxiety… Luke 1:26-38 The angel Gabriel says to Mary, “Hail, favored one! The Lord is with you.” God greets us in this way every day. Biblical texts: NAB-RE Normand Thomas.
The Church has established the intentions of the Papacy for which we pray to gain a plenary indulgence. We cannot pray for Prevost's diabolical Marxist intentions, which openly contradict them.
Pray for the Traditional Intentions of the Holy Father
The incorrupt left foot of Saint Anna, the mother of the Theotokos, the grandmother of Christ. The nerves and toes are clearly visible, while it still retains the temperature of a living body. Skete of Saint Anna, Holy Mount Athos. Saint Anna, pray to God for us!
Everything of Friday’s announcement indicates that this is deal is the complete capitulation of the Holy See to the Chinese Communist Party: The Vatican announced the resignation of Bishop Joseph Zhang Weizhu at age 67 as a bihop selected by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) was consecrated as his successor. Although the Vatican now refers to Zhang as Bishop Emeritus and the CCP acknowledges this title, he remains under strict house arrest, isolated from his family and unable to attend the consecration ceremony. All of this, the Vatican says, occurred within the framework of its secret Provisional Agreement with China.
The Vatican announced the episcopal consecration of Monsignor Francesco Li Jianlin as the new bishop of the Prefecture of Xinxiang in Henan, China, on December 5. The liturgy was held at the church of Weihui and celebrated by Bishop Li Shan of Beijing. He heads the state-controlled Chinese Patriotic Catholic Association. Li Jianlin is the second bishop elected during the papal interregnum following the death of Pope Francis. The appointment was formally approved by Pope Leo XIV on August 11. It comes with the acceptance of the “resignation” of the underground bishop Giuseppe Zhang Weizhu of Xinxiang. Loyal Catholic Bishop Erased from Memory The official Chinese report made no mention of papal approval and omitted any reference to Bishop Zhang Weizhu. Appointed in 1991, he was never recognized by Beijing. For decades he faced arrests, restrictions, and suppression because he refused to join the Patriotic Association. One notable episode occurred in 2021, when police dismantled a clandestine …More
Brigitte Macron can clearly be seen receiving Communion while the commentator says: “She has the perfect right to do so.” He adds that Emmanuel Macron did not approach to receive the Host out of “total respect” for “secularism,” the separation between Church and state that the French call “laïcité.”
Mon Dec 8, 2025 - 12:21 pm EST (LifeSiteNews) — Father Guy Pagès is a priest of the diocese of Paris well known for his work on Islam, its incoherence, and its total incompatibility with the Catholic faith. He recently wrote an open letter to Pope Leo XIV asking him to impose sanctions on those who allowed a profanation of the Holy Eucharist when France’s first lady was publicly given Communion during a special Mass celebrated by the Archbishop of Paris, Laurent Ulrich, in Notre Dame Cathedral. The occasion was the cathedral’s official reopening after the terrible fire, beginning on the Monday of Holy Week in 2019, that could have destroyed it. Pagè’s letter is full of anguish regarding the eternal fate of those who made this sacrilege possible and, mentioning the assessment of Benedict XVI, warns that a parallel can be made between the abuse of children within the Church and contempt for the Body of Christ.

This is the legacy of the Protestant error of "total depravity of man." The deformers insisted exclusively on "all have sinned" (or as the 1960s put it "the devil made me do it") that NO ONE, no saint even the Virgin Mary can lead a moral life; so no blame for wickedness since 'everybody does it!
07.12.2025 POPE LEO’S ECCLESIOLOGY WITH THE NEW MISSAL AT THE NOVUS ORDO MASS IS CUSHINGITE AND SCHISMATIC If the pope used the Roman Missal at the Novus Ordo Mass his ecclesiology would be Feeneyite and non schismatic. The New Missal cannot support the exclusivist ecclesiology of the past since it is based upon Vatican Council II interpreted irrationally, with exceptions for the Creeds, EENS etc. Theologically how can Pope Leo support the new missal of Pope Paul VI which is Cushingite and not Feeneyite ? It is faulted for what it does not say, for not being in harmony with the Nicene, Apostles and Athanasius Creed, interpreted rationally. It does not support the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus (EENS) of the Council of Florence 1442 and an ecumenism of return of the Syllabus of Pope Pius IX. It does not support the Catechism of Pope Pius X (24Q, 27Q Outside the Church No Salvation). It must be replaced by the Roman Missal which is Feeneyite, orthodox and aligned with Vatican Council …More
By TFP LA “Why Liberalism and Socialism Hate the Dogma of the Immaculate Conception so Much.” was the topic of the latest Ladies Talk and Tea. It was held in Lafayette, the heart of Acadiana. A short answer is to be found in the affirmation that of all creatures, only Mary (and naturally her Divine Son Jesus) was conceived without the stain of original sin. This makes her unequal to the rest of the human race. It places her in a unique, privileged place in God’s Creation and Divine Plan. For the liberal who believes that the individual is without the effects of original sin, or the socialist who believes the masses are, this anti-egalitarian act of God inspires not admiration but hatred. And this applies to Catholics influenced either by the liberalism of the French Revolution or the socialism of the Russian Revolution. Our country was consecrated to Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception on May 13, 1846. That was years before Blessed Pius IX proclaimed the dogma as a truth of the …
By J.B. Shurk European civilization is dying. The Trump administration’s new National Security Strategy makes this clear. It has squandered its post-WWII economic and military assistance from the United States by investing in centralized, socialist bureaucracies and expansive welfare States. By chasing the “climate change” con as a means for European governments to justify total control over the drivers of economic growth, European nations have forsaken cheap energy exploration, private entrepreneurship, and technological innovation. By depending upon the United States to defend its territorial interests, European nations have destroyed their military capabilities. In an effort to “juice” their economies with cheap labor and artificial demographic growth, European nations have opened their borders to tens of millions of foreign immigrants. The natural result is that foreign cultures have steadily eroded and replaced millennia-old European cultures without much resistance. The Trump …
This post is for my fellow Filipinos who love our Catholic traditions. Let us talk about one of the most beautiful customs we have during Advent. Simbang Gabi, the Misa de Aguinaldo. These dawn Masses are not just cultural events. They are a real Catholic treasure. For those who might not know, Simbang Gabi is a nine day novena of dawn Masses in honor of the Blessed Virgin Mary. It starts at dawn on December 16 and leads us right up to the dawn of December 24. In the traditional Roman Rite this practice comes from the ancient Rorate Caeli Masses. These were candlelit Marian Masses prayed before sunrise. The church is dark, the candles are glowing, and the priest begins with the words of Isaiah calling for the heavens to drop down the dew of the Savior. That is the real origin of Simbang Gabi. Now as we get ready to begin these nine days, we need to get something straight. Simbang Gabi is not a Catholic version of a wish spell. It is not a superstition. It is not a guarantee that if you …More
IF SCIENCE STILL CANNOT EXPLAIN, THERE ARE ONLY TWO OPTIONS: TO BELIEVE OR NOT TO BELIEVE Saint Bernardette Soubirous of Lourdes died in 1879 at the age of 35. Her body was excavated due to the process of canonization and to the surprise of doctors and examiners alike, her body was completely intact. Her teeth and nails were found incorrupt and perhaps equally compelling was the fact that the Rosary in her hands was still wet so many years after her death. Bernardette still has liquid blood flowing through her body. If she were alive today she would be 181 years old
(Click Image Below)—View & Interact with the ISAAC KAPPY MIND MAP—(Click Image Below) The Isaac Kappy Mind Map The Isaac Kappy Mind Map is a culmination of over four months of research and investigation, requiring 10-12 hours a day regularly. It began May 15, 2019, and culminated on September 23, 2019. Although I (Cory Daniel/ThePhoenixEnigma) have been the spearhead of this investigation and the idea and creation of this mind map is mine, I am not its sole contributor, for I could not have accomplished this alone. Instead, it is a collaborative effort of around 8 people who worked tirelessly with passion and intent for the sole purpose of finding out what exactly happened to Isaac Benjamin Kappy. Whether or not we achieved this we are not sure, but we’re miles closer to an answer than we were on May 14, 2019. And most importantly, Isaac’s death has not been swept under the rug. I would like to thank my research team for all their sacrifice. I’ve never seen a group of people so …
Mary Live with Dr. Mark Miravalle: International Mariologists Respond to Vatican Document on Mary An international group of Mariologists has respectfully responded to the Nov 4, 2025, Vatican document on Mary, calling for "substantive changes" due to the document's straying from previous papal teachings on Our Lady.
