Blessed Karl Leisner - August 12 The Blessed Karl Leisner (28 February 1915 in Rees – 12 August 1945 in Planegg, Germany) was a Roman Catholic priest interned in the Dachau concentration camp. He died of tuberculosis shortly after being liberated by the Allied forces. He has been declared a martyr and was beatified by Pope John Paul II on 23 June 1996. Leisner was born on 28 February 1915, the oldest of five children. When he was six years old, the family moved to Kleve, a city on the lower Rhine, where his father worked as a civil servant. He attended school and completed his gymnasium studies in 1934. During his youth, he became an altar boy and, at the suggestion of the high school chaplain, former a Catholic youth group, the Saint Werner Group. These youth groups combined prayer with outdoor activities, such as camping and cycling. Leisner turned out to be a natural leader and became a youth leader in the 1930s, during the era in which the Nazis were beginning to take control of …Dabalata
The Priest Barracks of Dachau Concentration (in German Pfarrerblock, or Priesterblock) incarcerated clergy who had opposed the Nazi regime of Adolf Hitler. From December 1940, Berlin ordered the transfer of clerical prisoners held at other camps, and Dachau became the centre for imprisonment of clergymen. Of a total of 2,720 clerics recorded as imprisoned at Dachau some 2,579 (or 94.88%) were Roman Catholics. Among the other denominations, there were 109 Protestants, 22 Orthodox, 8 Old Catholics and Mariavites and 2 Muslims. Members of the Catholic Society of Jesus (Jesuits) were the largest group among the incarcerated clergy at Dachau. Priest Barracks of Dachau Concentration Camp - Wikipedia
Cardinal Matteo Zuppi of Bologna and president of the Italian Bishops’ Conference attended the private funeral of Italian singer-songwriter Francesco Guccini in Pavana on Saturday. He delivered an address, published on Avvenire.it (August 8), in which he practically canonized the self-described agnostic. Guccini, 86, had described himself as an “agnostic possibilist.” Zuppi, who was his friend, recalled that the singer had once told him he wanted the cardinal present at his funeral. Addressing Guccini directly, Cardinal Zuppi imagined what the deceased might now be seeing: “We do not know precisely … what you see: the fullness of that light which, in reality, you had already sensed from here and which you were able to glimpse in the poignant and infinite beauty of life.” Cardinal Zuppi portrayed Guccini’s agnostic doubt positively, as an honest search for truth. “Doubt was your way of standing before things without cheating, with integrity,” he said. “You never stopped asking and listening.” …Dabalata
British Catholic Prime Minister Andy Burnham is "a non-Catholic Catholic kind of guy", UK-based writer Steven Tucker argues on August 7 on CrisisMagazine.com. Burnham has absorbed a specifically left-wing, Liverpool strain of Catholic Social Teaching that is socialism in disguise. Main points: Archbishop Derek Worlock (1920–1996) of Liverpool had a significant influence on Burnham during his youth. As an altar boy, Burnham played tapes of Worlock's sermons in which he criticised the central government for neglecting the North West. Burnham considered the "vast majority" of staff at his Catholic schools to be Labour supporters who encouraged him in that direction. In 2012, Burnham said that "what I used to read in the catechism - the realisation of it on Earth - was the Labour Party'. He has campaigned, voted and marched for homosex "marriage", homosex adoption and gender policies. He has even supported male access to women's facilities. While mayor of Manchester, he took part in a city …Dabalata
Israel is silent as Moscow seeks answers about a dual citizen of Russia and Israel. Missing since landing at Ben Gurion Airport last wee. Israeli authorities have remained silent on the fate of Russian-Israeli historian Artyom Kirpichenok, days after his reported detention and despite Moscow seeking answers about his whereabouts. Kirpichenok, 51, is a dual Russian-Israeli citizen, journalist, and Middle East expert known for his writings on Zionism and criticism of Israel’s policies toward Iran and Palestine. He reportedly disappeared on August 2 shortly after landing at Ben Gurion Airport on a flight from Yerevan. Kirpichenok reportedly sent his family a brief message saying “arrived” at 10:41 am, but his phone and social media activity ceased shortly afterward. Reports citing Israeli police say he passed through passport control at Ben Gurion before disappearing. Colleagues said he had traveled to Israel for an academic conference and had a return ticket for August 8. International …Dabalata
Bishop Fredrik Hansen of Oslo plans the first diocesan synod in Oslo before the 2030 jubilee of St. Olaf. “A diocesan synod is not a democratic assembly,” Bishop Hansen wrote on August 6 on Katolsk.no, the website of the Catholic Church in Norway. “As bishop, I am also obliged to exclude from the synod anything that contradicts or calls into question the doctrine of the Church,” he added. “It is not for us to decide on matters of faith and morals.” The synod will arrive at plans and documents that are “presented to me as bishop and brought to a decision by me.” Bishop Hansen indicated that participation in the assemblies would probably resemble “a considerably expanded pastoral council.” He compared his diocesan synod with the synods held by St Archbishop Charles Borromeo of Milan “in accordance with the provisions of the Council of Trent.” However, his working method “will resemble that of the Second Vatican Council,” he threatened. Bishop Hansen recently extended permission for the …Dabalata
A clever but meaningless pronouncement. Pope Leo XIV would feel quite comfortable in offering similar assurances. The problem with Conciliarism is that the teachings of the Second Vatican Council have allowed the Modernist leaders to determine what "contradicts or calls into question the doctrine of the Church." They call it a "living" Magisterium.
Book of Ezekiel 9,1-7.10,18-22. Then he cried loud for me to hear: Come, you scourges of the city! With that I saw six men coming from the direction of the upper gate which faces the north, each with a destroying weapon in his hand. In their midst was a man dressed in linen, with a writer's case at his waist. They entered and stood beside the bronze altar. Then he called to the man dressed in linen with the writer's case at his waist, saying to him: Pass through the city (through Jerusalem) and mark an X on the foreheads of those who moan and groan over all the abominations that are practiced within it. To the others I heard him say: Pass through the city after him and strike! Do not look on them with pity nor show any mercy! Old men, youths and maidens, women and children--wipe them out! But do not touch any marked with the X; begin at my sanctuary. So they began with the men (the elders) who were in front of the temple.

Buch Ezechiel 9,1-8a.10,18-22. Gott, der Herr, schrie mir laut in die Ohren: Das Strafgericht über die Stadt ist nahe. Jeder soll sein Werkzeug zum Zertrümmern in die Hand nehmen. Da kamen sechs Männer vom oberen Tor, das im Norden liegt. Jeder hatte sein Werkzeug zum Zertrümmern in der Hand. Unter ihnen war auch ein Mann, der ein leinenes Gewand anhatte; an seinem Gürtel hing Schreibzeug. Sie kamen herein und stellten sich neben den Altar aus Bronze. Die Herrlichkeit des Gottes Israels schwebte von den Kerubim, über denen sie war, hinüber zur Schwelle des Tempels. Er rief den Mann, der das leinene Gewand anhatte und an dessen Gürtel das Schreibzeug hing. Der Herr sagte zu ihm: Geh mitten durch die Stadt Jerusalem und schreib ein T auf die Stirn aller Männer, die über die in der Stadt begangenen Greueltaten seufzen und stöhnen.

Today, Pope Leo XIV received Cardinal Willem Jacobus Eijk, 73, of Utrecht, in audience. AdVaticanum.com reported that the audience comes amid renewed attention to the cardinal’s health. Cardinal Eijk was absent from both extraordinary consistories convened by Pope Leo XIV this year, in January and June, with his absence from the June gathering reported as health-related. His health problems stretch back more than two decades. In 2001, while serving as Bishop of Groningen, he suffered a brainstem infarction. One of its lasting consequences was severe facial pain. On March 2, 2020, the Archdiocese of Utrecht published excerpts from a letter Cardinal Eijk had sent that day to members of pastoral teams. The letter concerned treatment he had undergone abroad for the facial pain caused by his 2001 brainstem infarction. Cardinal Eijk wrote: “I never made public statements about this facial pain, because I wanted to prevent people from sparing me because of it and from being reluctant to call …Dabalata
The Peruvian naturalization file of Robert Prevost preserves a handwritten letter in which he expressed his desire to remain in Peru “for the rest of my life.” The documentation, held by Peru’s National Superintendency of Migration, records the process through which the American-born Prevost obtained Peruvian citizenship in 2015 after years of pastoral work in the country. According to TVPerú Noticias, Prevost submitted his application in 2015 and addressed a handwritten letter to then-President Ollanta Humala explaining his ties to Peru and formally requesting nationality. As part of the naturalization process, Prevost also underwent an examination on Peruvian history, geography and culture. Héctor Pérez, head of Migraciones’ General Archive, said the future pope achieved an exceptionally high result. The essential details of Prevost’s naturalization are confirmed by official Peruvian records. Supreme Resolution No. 157-2015-IN, dated August 17, 2015, states that Prevost applied for …Dabalata
SAINT JANE FRANCES DE CHANTAL - August 12 (1572-1641) Jane Frances de Frémyot was placed under a worldly-minded governess at 16 years old. She sought refuge by offering herself to the Mother of God like many saints. When a Protestant who lacked character sought her hand in marriage, she refused him. She later married Baron de Chantal, who gave her the home and the heart of a truly Christian man. Two of Jane's children and a dearly beloved sister died; and in the full tide of prosperity, her husband was killed during a hunting accident. Friends urged her to remarry, but she retired to her father-in-law's estate. On March 19, 1609, she affectionately bade farewell to her family and relations and entered religious life. Alban Butler's translation of Acta Sanctorum states, "Her 15-year-old son used every entreaty and endearment to induce her not to leave and at last flung himself across the door of the room. In an agony of distress, she passed over him to the embrace of her aged and disconsolate …Dabalata

– Folha de S. Paulo, November 13, 1984 – by Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira Having always avoided partisan battles, I had planned to stay silent on the shifting dynamics of the succession debates. This was especially true since, until recently, the ideological differences between the two candidates were vague — almost intangible—and therefore did not warrant serious commentary. Aside from a doctrinal perspective, any interference on my part in this great “brouhaha” would be pointless. I don’t have a structured constituency to lend political weight to my statement, and my role in the Brazilian public sphere is purely ideological or doctrinal. It so happens, however, that in recent weeks, the landscape of political controversy has experienced notable shifts. For quite some time, Mr. Tancredo Neves’s public stance leaned left, with only occasional right-wing statements meant to reassure conservative voters in his home region. Mr. Paulo Maluf, on the other hand, maintained a subtly right-leaning …Dabalata
