Nine Consecrated Hosts Sold on Etsy.com.

Etsy.com, an e-commerce website focused on handmade or vintage items and craft supplies, has recently sold 9 consecrated hosts. They were marketed as “real Catholic hosts, consecrated by a priest!!!” And: “Made and consecrated in Germany.” The seller ‘Pentagora” recommended them quote – “to be abused for classic black fairs or black magic purposes.”

Archbishop Víctor “Tucho” Fernández of La Plata, Argentina, Francis’ Amoris Laetitia ghost-writer, published an online diary about his April/May Ad-Limina visit in Rome. In the first paragraph, Fernández writes he was very impressed to stand in Rome before the tomb of San Sebastian and – quote – “see the image of his body pierced by arrows because of his missionary commitment.” The Argentinean blog Wanderer comments, “Everyone knows that the iconography of Saint Sebastian has been used for decades to represent a certain minority that is ecstatic regarding the contemplation of the naked body of Saint Sebastian, although not precisely because of his missionary commitment.”

Martyr Cardinal George Pell is spending his jail time in solitary confinement writing and reading extensively and praying ahead of his appeal against his false conviction, The Weekend Australian wrote. The innocent Cardinal is still prevented from saying Mass. Friends of Pell have reported that he is “remarkably robust’’ and has been inundated with letters from all over the world and is visited regularly. The heroic cardinal spends 23 hours a day in his cell.

Monsignor Philippe Marset, the vicar general of Paris Archdiocese, does not believe in miracles. On April 21 he talked to the private French TV Broadcaster M6 about his experience in Notre Dame square after a fire had destroyed the cathedral. Quote, “This morning I was asked, ‘Do you believe in miracles?’ I answered, ‘No, I believe above all in the firefighters.'" For years, Marset was the responsible for the Paris youth pilgrimage to Lourdes.

All of you that serve Satan - suffer his punishment.
He is not your friend, since he loves nobody.
When you die - he calls you stupid for preferring eternal death & his hatred of you to Christ's love, & promise of Salvation if you submit to HIS rule instead.
If you reject Christ's Crucifixion as an atonement for your sins - Satan will punish you the same way
If you seek to gain power over Christ …More

If you reject Christ's Crucifixion as an atonement for your sins - Satan will punish you the same way
If you seek to gain power over Christ in violating the Consecrated Host - you will experience what you strove to do to Christ - as a punishment to YOU in Hell. God tries to warn us that Satan judges those who don't love Christ. Christ judges us in LOVE - Satan condemns you without Mercy. For betraying Christ, Satan tells you how stupid you are - once you are in Hell, and within a very very short time you wish you had not made that same choice that you believed was good before the gates were slammed shut behind you.

Visions of Hell take many varieties - but here is what I have learned from the Saints and sinners

a) One saw a man in Hell, who had been restrained by demons, he was having nails permanently hammered into his head without any end to it. (Sorry to anyone who doesn't believe in Hell.... Many, people did not believe either - until Christ showed them a preview to wake them up from their sordid lives before it was too late for them to repent

b) An immoral abuser who died briefly - found what he had done to others ( as Christ warns us) was re-enacted in the most terrifying way upon himself - he was led into darkness - but gained assistance from Our Lord when the Lord's Prayer appeared before his eyes and he gratefully started to recite it. The demons, fled from Our Lord, and the man converted and repented it was so awful!
c) A man was seen grinning superficially -locked in that position, with worms going into his ears and coming out of his eyes.

d) The Devil does not look glamorous - he is blistered, burned and screams with hate & insanity.

I could go on - but I won't.

Satan does this and more to those who serve him. You preferred his evil - to Christ's GOOD, & you'll find Satan's own punishment will be given him by Christ, long after your treatment by him has made you repent of your bad choices.

Don't trust the Devil. Hatred of you is disguised whilst you live - after death - he doesn't pretend any longer.

Prior to this, I was an "either way is ok" kind of person. However, this news item is the definitive reason why there should NOT be communion in the hand. Everyone receives on the tongue and those who are somehow traumatized by a priest putting the host on their tongue, can receive separately at the end of mass when a special provision would be made to allow communion in the hand with the understanding that the host must be consumed immediately in front of the priest.

A little common sense and the problem is solved.
Will it happen?
Highly doubtful.

p.s. Are we allowed to give compliments? 😲
If so, I like what our lovely and gracious news presenter did with her hair. A little long for my taste but the change is good. 👌

I heard that Mother Teresa was very sad seeing people receive the Holy Eucharist/Jesus in the hand rather than on the tongue. Also, I heard a woman, who lives solely off of the Holy Eucharist for over 12 years, say that it hurts her to see so many people receiving in their hands and they drop crumbs from the Host onto the floor where they are trampled on... and the abuses and stealing of the Hosts …More

Sometimes the priests find the Host tucked into hymnals or worse, people try to steal the Host for mocking or sacrileges and black masses...
