Mon Oct 6, 2025 - 8:54 pm EDTTue Oct 7, 2025 - 6:08 am EDT PITTSBURGH (LifeSiteNews) — Bishop Athanasius Schneider urged the faithful during a talk on Saturday not to bow to the modern idols that have crept into the Catholic Church such as LGBT ideology or the climate change agenda. Speaking at the Catholic Identity Conference (CIC) in Pittsburgh on October 4, the auxiliary bishop of Astana, Kazakhstan, emphasized that in a period when the First Commandment is often rejected even by the Church hierarchy, Catholics must cling to Our Lord Jesus Christ and not offer incense to modern idols such as political correctness, “Mother Earth,” icebergs, and the LGBT ideology. Schneider’s bold statement comes just over a month after the sacrilegious LGBT pilgrimage at the Vatican in early September that saw thousands of so-called “LGBT Catholics,” many with their same-sex “partners,” processing into St. Peter’s Basilica, and about a week after Pope Leo’s blessing of an iceberg during a Vatican …
Antiphon of Saint Nicholas Against the Errant Doctrine O lumen veritatis, Shone Nicholas in council hall; The heretic raised trembling voice, And shadows gather’d round them all. O pastor fidelissimus, Nick rose with righteous, solemn fire: “Let not the Son be counted less Than He who births the heavenly choir.” O verbum aeternae lucis, He struck with creed, not flesh nor spear— A blow of truth, a liturgy That drove the errant teaching clear. O sancte Nicolae, quick, Rose steadfast Nick against the heretic; Not flesh he struck, but error thick— A truth-born slap, austere and mystic._ O defensor fidei, Thus did the saint his vigil keep: By doctrine’s light the night was torn, And error sank in humbled sleep.
Saint Sabas the Sanctified |Founder of Holy Monasteries | Feast Day: December 5 | Catechism for Kids Saint Sabas the Sanctified (439–532 AD) was one of the greatest early monks of the Church and a major leader of Eastern Christian monasticism. Born in Cappadocia (modern-day Turkey), he entered monastic life as a young boy and grew into a wise, peaceful, and deeply holy man. Saint Sabas travelled to Palestine and founded several monasteries, including the famous Great Lavra of Saint Sabas (Mar Saba) in the Kidron Valley. This monastery is still active after over 1,500 years, making it one of the oldest continuously inhabited monasteries in the world. The monks there still follow many of the ancient customs he established! Sabas spent much of his life in prayer, fasting, silence, and service. Kings, bishops, and emperors came to him for wisdom because of his strong faith and gentle heart. He also defended the true teachings of the Church during times of confusion and helped bring peace …More
Pope Francis, who died in April 2025, set aside funds in his will for a humanitarian project run by Dominican sister Lucía Caram, she said in remarks reported by Spanish media. According to Sister Caram, the funds were explicitly intended to support medical care in war-affected areas of Ukraine, in particular the purchase of ambulances. The exact amount designated in the pope’s will has not been disclosed. Sister Caram said that Francis had expressed support for her work on several occasions: “I never imagined it would come in this form.” Born in Argentina, Sister Caram has lived in Spain for about thirty years. She became widely known for her homosexual activism. She stated that Our Lady was “not a virgin”, supported homosexual "marriages" and said that homosexual sins are “love.” In 2023, she acknowledged that Francis is a friend of active homosexuals and transvestites, and claimed that he had recently “appointed a homosexual as prefect of a very important Vatican dicastery,” …More
The wicked anti-Catholic and homosexual activist Jorge Bergoglio has bequeathed money to the apostate Argentinian nun Lucía Caram, who promotes homosexuality, rebels against God's natural laws, and denies all Catholic doctrine. 2 Corinthians 11:13-16 Such people are false apostles, dishonest workers who masquerade as apostles of Christ. And no wonder! Even Satan masquerades as an angel of light. Therefore, it should not be considered unusual that his servants also disguise themselves as ministers of righteousness. Their end will be appropriate to their deeds.
The apostate and gay activist Robert Prevost appoints the gay activist Salvador González Morales as "bishop" of the synodal sect run by anti-Catholic homosexuals.
Today, Pope Leo XIV has appointed Monsignor Salvador González Morales as the new Bishop of the Diocese of Cancún-Chetumal, Mexico. In February 2019, Francis had appointed him Auxiliary Bishop of the Archdiocese of Mexico City. He also served as Vicar General of the Archdiocese. The Case of Rev. Olvera Delgadillo In June 2022, the Catholic priest Juan de Dios Olvera Delgadillo was temporarily suspended after signing the declaration Mater Veritatis Salutaris, which criticized certain teachings of Pope Francis on adultery and homosexuality. The unjust punishment was imposed by the vicar general, Monsignor González Morales. In a 2023 follow-up interview, Rev. Olvera Delgadillo added that he had been removed from his post at the Basilica of Guadalupe, yet has received neither a formal canonical sentence nor proper due process. Celebration of a Homosexual Eucharist In October 2024, Monsignor González Morales presided over a homosexual Eucharist (pictured). According to a report from the …More
Dec 5 First Week of Advent, Friday We continue posting Advent reflections by the Church Fathers. It's a good way to prepare to celebrate Christmas. The reflections and quotations come from the book called, Advent and Christmas with the Church Fathers by Marco Pappalardo. Introduction Jesus was born two thousand years ago. This is a historical fact for everyone, and it is the starting point and destination of salvation history for those who believe. So what are we waiting for? We await the coming of Christ on the last day, which will be the beginning of the never-ending celebration. Yet the way we wait is also important. Here are some fitting words: gladness, hope, poverty in spirit, thoughts directed to God, and everlasting treasures. Dec 5 "Listen to these words of mine and act on them” Here's today's Mass reading from the holy Gospel according to Matthew 7:21, 24‑27: Jesus said to his disciples: “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the Kingdom of heaven, but only …
Pro-homosexual Cardinal Matteo Maria Zuppi, Archbishop of Bologna and President of the Italian Bishops’ Conference, praised the “excellent relationship” with the Italian government, adding that “there is close cooperation on many issues” (SecoloDItalia.it, December 4). On migration, Zuppi said that the Church will always reiterate that lives must be saved, mindful of the law of the sea and the words of Francis and Leo XIV: “The simplification of ‘all in/all out’ does not work.” And: “It is clear that this is an epoch-making phenomenon that needs to be regulated at the European level.””
Andrà ad Atreju Il cardinale Zuppi: “I vescovi hanno un ottimo rapporto con il governo. Togliere il presepe? È come buttare giù i campanili” Politica - di Stefania Campitelli - 4 Dicembre 2025 alle 13:20 Nessuna opposizione al governo Meloni né una linea Zuppi contrapposta quella di Papa Leone XIV sul dossier Ucraina. In una lunga intervista al Giornale, il cardinale Matteo Maria Zuppi, presidente della Cei (nominato da papa Francesco) e inviato vaticano per la missione umanitaria a Kiev, fa anche il punto sulle relazioni tra la Santa Sede e Palazzo Chigi. “La Cei ha un ottimo rapporto col governo e su tanti dossier c’è una collaborazione. Un esempio su tanti: apprezziamo quanto è stato fatto in favore degli oratori che – spiega il prelato che sarà ospite di Atreju – in un tessuto sociale così debole diventano importantissimi per la promozione umana e anche per l’evangelizzazione. E potremmo continuare su vari aspetti. Poi, certo, esistono temi su cui c’è più dialettica e …More
Amos 3:3 “Can two walk together without agreeing?” John 15:19 If you belonged to the world, the world would love you as its own; but because you do not belong to the world, because my choice withdrew you from the world, therefore the world hates you.
Pope Leo: “Artificial intelligence has certainly opened up new horizons for creativity, but it also raises serious concerns about its possible repercussions on humanity’s openness to truth and beauty, and capacity for wonder and contemplation.”
And in all seduction of iniquity to them that perish; because they receive not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. Therefore God shall send them the operation of error, to believe lying:
Earlier this week, Anna Gallagher, executive director of the Catholic Legal Immigration Network Inc. (CLINIC) crooned: “As we enter the Advent season, we remember that the Holy Family themselves were migrants seeking safety.” It is a recurring motif to validate the resistance of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) to curtailment of illegal immigration. In November, the USCCB prepared for Advent by declaring war on the Trump administration with a “Special Pastoral Message on Immigration.” The insurrectionist tenor of this rare “special message” places the globalist conceits — and monetary interests — of the hierarchy ahead of the just laws of their own country. Larded with scriptural citations isolated from historical context, the declaration erases distinctions between lawful immigration and waves of illicit, unvetted migrants. The term illegal does not appear. This is a calculated omission for emotional effect. Inaccurate wording disguises the USCCB’s self-interested …

Three hundred and fifty-five years. That was the duration of time that the Hudson’s Bay Company existed prior to the beginning of its liquidation in March of this year. Founded in 1670 by Royal Charter of King Charles II, it is rather poetic that – over 300 years later – it would be dissolved under King Charles III. The history of the Hudson’s Bay Company and the history of Canada are nigh inseparable. In line with the mercantilist policy throughout the remainder of the British Empire, the HBC effectively ruled Rupert’s Land. This was akin to the East India Company in the Subcontinent, and the British South Africa Company in Rhodesia. As with all institutions of culture and identity in this country, the Hudson’s Bay Company had been fundamentally subverted, right under all of our noses. In an article published back in April, Jeffery Vacante of the Toronto Star pointed out that the liquidation of the Hudson’s Bay Company came at a very convenient time. Especially so for its American…
Isaiah 30:19-21, 23-26 “People of Zion, dwelling in Jerusalem, you shall no longer weep; The Lord will be most gracious to you.” The grace of God is present in this moment. We receive it.

FIVE SATURDAY DEVOTION “Look, my daughter, my Heart is full of thorns which ungrateful men continually pierce into me with blasphemies and ingratitude. You, at least, try to console me and say that all those who, for five months, on the First Saturday, confess, receive Holy Communion, pray the Rosary and keep me company for fifteen minutes, meditating on the fifteen mysteries, with the desire of reparation, I promise to assist them at the hour of death with all the graces necessary for the salvation of their souls.” (Our Lady of Fatima) PERSONAL CONSECRATION TO THE IMMACULATE HEART OF MARY - (Prayer written by Sister Lucia) Virgin Mary, Mother of God and our Mother, to Your Immaculate Heart we consecrate ourselves, in an act of total surrender to the Lord. Through You we will be led to Christ. Through Him and with Him we will be led to the Father. We will walk in the light of faith and do everything so that the world may believe that Jesus Christ is the one sent by the Father. With Him …More
