My Lord and my God: I firmly believe that you are here, that you see me, that you hear me. I adore you with deep reverence. I ask you for forgiveness of my sins and grace to make this time of prayer fruit. My Mother Immaculate, Saint Joseph, my father and lord, my guardian Angel: intercede for me.

Pope Leo XIV published today an Apostolic Letter on archaeology. Marking 100 years since the founding of the Pontifical Institute of Christian Archaeology, he described the discipline as “indispensable for understanding Christianity”: “Revelation is always history. If this is so, then understanding Revelation requires an adequate knowledge of the historical, cultural and material contexts in which it took place,” he wrote. The Pontifical Institute, founded in 1925, is led by German priest Stefan Heid. He is world-famous for his research showing that the early Church celebrated Holy Mass ad orientem.

Leone XIV firma una lettera apostolica per scavare nelle radici della fede

Questa mattina è stata pubblicata una Lettera Apostolica di Papa Leone XIV dedicata all’importanza dell’archeologia cristiana nel cammino della Chiesa contemporanea. Il testo prende spunto dal centenario del Pontificio Istituto di Archeologia Cristiana e lo collega al nuovo Anno Giubilare, ricordando che nel 1925, anno di fondazione dell’Istituto, Pio XI aveva indetto il “Giubileo della pace” per lenire le ferite della Prima guerra mondiale. Fin dalle prime righe della pagina iniziale il Papa spiega che la memoria del passato, «illuminata dalla fede e purificata dalla carità», è per la Chiesa «nutrimento della speranza», e che l’archeologia rientra pienamente in questo servizio alla memoria credente.
La “casa dell’archeologia”: come nasce il Pontificio Istituto
Per comprendere la portata della lettera, il Papa torna alla storia del Pontificio Istituto di Archeologia Cristiana (PIAC), che definisce «la casa dell’archeologia». L’Istituto nasce l’11 dicembre 1925 con il motu …

Pope to Pontifical Institute of Archaeology: “By concentrating on the physical traces of faith, archeology educates us in a theology of the senses: a theology that knows how to see, touch, smell and listen. Christian archeology is a school of the senses. By examining stones, ruins and other artifacts, it teaches us that nothing touched by faith is insignificant.

NATO Chief Tells Europe To Prepare For War With Russia

Russia could attack a Nato country within the next five years, according to Secretary General Mark Rutte.
Speaking at the Munich Security Conference in Germany, the Nato chief said that Europe needs to prepare for war with Russia on a scale not seen since World War Two.
He said “Russia has brought war back to Europe, and we must be prepared for the scale of war our grandparents and great-grandparents endured.”

Italian Priest Proposes "Baby Girl" as Christ in Nativity scene: On 3 December, Father Vitaliano Della Sala, pastor in Capocastello (Diocese of Avellino, Italy), told a local television station that a 'baby girl Jesus' should be introduced into nativity scenes because God could have incarnated as a woman as well. This "provocation" should stimulate reflection on women's "access" to Holy Orders: "I was thinking of having a baby girl Jesus born, to say that if Jesus was born male, this does not mean He privileged us men and excluded the possibility of women becoming deacons, priests and even bishops," Don Della Sala said. In 2023, the pro-homosexual priest featured two lesbians at the side of the manger.

I welcome this sort of stuff - The Orthodox Church ( who is monitoring this forum) will help spread the news of the Novus Ordo Heresies, further dividing the ever chance of unification.
Imagine that, promoting a female messiah, and promoting young girls with hand grenades, and venerating NAZI's

Meet the head of the Transalpine Redemptorists who called out the ‘Synodal Church’

On this episode of The John Henry Westen Show is Father Michael Mary Sim, the founder and superior of the Sons of the Most Holy Redeemer (Transalpine Redemptorists) religious congregation. We discussed the community’s recent letter denouncing the “Synodal Church,” their bishop’s attempt to expel them, and more.
First we briefly discussed the history of the Transalpine Redemptorists, who were founded under the auspices of Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre and the Society of St. Pius X (SSPX), as well as their 2024 expulsion from their diocese in New Zealand.
Then I asked Fr. Michael Mary about the congregation’s October open letter repudiating the “Synodal Church” and why they decided to write it now after suffering through Francis without making similar statements.
The priest emphasized that what really led to that letter was Francis’ stunning remarks last year that “every religion is a way to arrive at God,” delivered to an ecumenical group of young people in Singapore. After that, the …More
