In the most significant appointment for the US Church to date, Pope Leo has officially appointed Joliet’s Bishop Ron Hicks (58) as the 11 Archbishop of New York, succeeding Cardinal Timothy Dolan. A native of Chicago, Hicks was ordained to the priesthood by Cardinal Bernardin. He served as Auxiliary/Vicar General to Cardinal Cupich. Hicks spent five years doing missionary work with orphans in El Salvador.
Pope Leo XIV has appointed Bishop Ron Hicks, 58, of Joliet, Illinois, as the 11th Archbishop of New York. Monsignor Hicks was ordained as a priest in 1994 by likely homosexual Cardinal Joseph Bernardin. He was ordained as an auxiliary bishop by pro-homosexual Cardinal Blase Cupich, whom he owes his entire carreer. Cardinal Timothy Dolan, who has led the Archdiocese of New York since 2009, will be remembered for permitting a transvestite show funeral for homosexual activist Cecilia Gentili at St. Patrick’s Cathedral in February 2024. In all likelihood, substantively, Bishop Hicks will not differ significantly from Cardinal Dolan. First Generation-X Prelate at Major US Archdiocese Bishop Hicks will be the first Generation-X prelate (born roughly between 1965 and 1980) to hold a major U.S. see. He comes from a very different era of seminary formation. The Archbishop of New York is traditionally appointed a cardinal. From 2005 to 2010, Bishop Hicks spent five years on missionary assignment …More

A man decided to mark an important moment in his life. He chose his best calf, prepared a generous meal, and said to his daughter: “Go invite our relatives and neighbors. I want to share my joy—and a good dinner—with them.” The girl stepped outside, but instead of delivering the invitation, she called out loudly: “Please help! My father’s house is on fire! Anyone who can—come quickly!” Within minutes, people began to run toward the yard. Some came in slippers, some straight from the road. They came without hesitation. One carried a bucket, another brought nothing but their own two hands—but all were ready to help. The relatives and neighbors who were supposed to be invited, however, never appeared. Some didn’t respond at all. Others likely decided it wasn’t their problem. Meanwhile, the table in the yard was already set. When those who had rushed to help saw the food, they were confused. But the man simply smiled and invited them to sit. They ate, drank, laughed, and enjoyed the …More
Bishop Michael Martin of Charlotte, North Carolina, has banned the public use of kneelers for receiving Communion with effect from 16 January 2026. In a letter published on CharlotteDiocese.org on 17 December, he writes that using them is 'a visible contradiction to the normative posture of Holy Communion established by our episcopal conference'. The text begins with pious or banal quotations. He then admits that it is the right of the faithful to kneel when receiving Holy Communion. But: "The normative posture for all the faithful in the United States is standing." "Faithful individuals who feel compelled to kneel to receive the Eucharist, as is their right, should prayerfully consider the communal blessing that is realised when we share a common posture." Monsignor Martin refers to the norms of the US bishops' conference which "logically" do not envisage the use of kneelers or receiving communion. The three main points of the letter are: 1. Clergy, catechists, ministers of Holy Communion …More

Pope Leo XIV has appointed Auxiliary Bishop Ramón Bejarano of San Diego as the new Bishop of Monterey, California. Born on July 17, 1969, in Laredo, Texas, Monsignor Bejarano was ordained a priest for the Diocese of Stockton on August 15, 1998. On February 27, 2020, Pope Francis appointed him Auxiliary Bishop of San Diego, run by Cardinal Robert McElroy, one of the most progressive prelates in the American hierarchy. “All Are Welcome” Eucharist In June 2024, Bishop Bejarano presided over an “All Are Welcome” Eucharist at St. John the Evangelist Parish in San Diego. The service was presented as an outreach to practicing homosexuals. At the end of the service, he offered a special blessing for homosexuals: "Help us embrace that our beloved LGBTQ+ siblings and all who feel marginalized by the Church are beautifully and wonderfully made in Your image." He continued: "Bless our LGBTQ ministry so that we may continue to grow by your grace and bring all people to the knowledge and love …More
1 Corinthians 11:27-30 "Whenever you eat this Bread and drink this Cup, you proclaim His death, and so, whoever eats the Bread or drinks the Cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of the Body and Blood of the Lord. Each one ought to examine himself before eating this Bread and drinking this Cup, for whoever eats and drinks without recognizing the Body eats and drinks his own condemnation. Indeed, that is why many of you are weak and sick, and some have even died."
