On March 30, Pope Leo XIV appointed a new group of members to the Dicastery for Promoting Integral Human Development, including bishops, clergy, religious figures, and lay academics. All of them are closely aligned with the priorities of the Francis era, such as mass immigration, "synodality", social justice, inculturation, and ecology. Archbishop Rogelio Cabrera López of Monterrey, Mexico Monsignor Cabrera publicly aligned himself with the pro-homosexual document Fiducia Supplicans. According to AciDigital.com (23 January 2024), he urged Catholics to read the document in a spirit of mercy and called for “affective and effective communion” with Pope Francis and his pastoral proposals . In his capacity as president of the Mexican bishops’ conference, he was also involved in submitting the "Mayan rite" to the Vatican for approval. Auxiliary Bishop Lizardo Estrada Herrera of Cusco, Peru Monsignor Estrada is the General Secretary of CELAM, the Latin American Bishops’ Council. In July …Aswan
"Now, to have our "loins girt," signifies two things: First, the virtue of chastity; Secondly, a readiness to meet our Lord coming to judgment, whether it be the particular or the general judgment. The holy fathers, St. Basil, St. Augustine, and St. Gregory, give the first explanation. And truly, the concupiscence of the flesh, beyond all other passions, doth greatly hinder us from being ready to meet Christ; whilst, on the other hand, nothing makes us more fit to follow our Lord, than virginal chastity. We read in the Apocalypse how virgins follow the Lamb “whithersoever he goeth.”
[St. Robert Bellarmine – XVI-XVII Century A.D.; Montepulciano, Grand Duchy of Tuscany/Rome, Papal States; (Aged 78); Cardinal; Rector; Professor; Doctor of the Church; Role in Giordano Bruno & Galileo cases] “CHAPTER IV. THE FOURTH PRECEPT, CONTAINING THREE EVANGELICAL COUNSELS. ALTHOUGH what we have said on faith, hope, and charity, may seem sufficient to enable us to live well and die well; yet, in order to effect these two objects more perfectly and more easily, our Lord Himself has deigned to give us three counsels in the Holy Scriptures: thus He speaks in St. Luke: "Let your loins be girt, and lamps burning in your hands. And you yourselves like to men who wait for their lord, when he shall return from the wedding; that when he cometh and knocketh, they may open to him immediately. Blessed are those servants, whom the Lord, when he cometh, shall find watching." (chap. xii. 35, 36.)

The Church is “nothing without God” and exists to save souls and nourish them through the sacraments, Cardinal Robert Sarah, 80, told CNews on March 27. When speaking about the Church’s problems, Sarah avoids naming individuals. Throughout the interview, he uses only broad categories - "we," "people," - and shifts the blame onto modern culture and ideas such as relativism, rupture, and innovation. His consistent rhetorical strategy is to use passive and "we". The Church: Not an NGO His basic argument is that the Church cannot be reduced to a humanitarian, political, or sociological institution: "God must truly be placed at the center of our existence, at the center of our life, at the center of our concerns." And: "If we detach the Church from this mission… the Church is useless." Liturgy as Battlefield Cardinal Sarah mentions Leo XIV only briefly and in an almost deferential way when describing the liturgical crisis. "I understand that the Pope is concerned about this liturgical unity …Aswan
To be clear, in the case of heresy it is God who judges it because the Catholic Faith is revealed by God. The Pope is in effect judged by God as a heretic when he rejects the faith. Any man can identify the Pope as a heretic freely without any problem in that case. The man is not judging the Pope, the Pope has already been judged by God. The man is simply expressing an existing judgement.

Think about that. Iran hides nothing while Israel and bibi not only hide what's going on there, but people are jailed for posting online. Iran has not hid anything from anyone so far. Which tells me, they are more trustworthy than both trump and bibi.
@Renvoie les riches les mains vides Thank you again for taking on the Russian influencers on Gloria TV! I am glad there are others willing to fight for the truth of Our Lady of Fatima's message! As for @Instaurare Omnia in Christo's idea that "The Russian government tried to kick them out. But the freemasons used Russia's own laws to prevent it." It is naive to think the laws that promote evil in Russia are accidental. Russia is in fact corrupt to the core and merely deceiving the gullible Catholics. And here on Gloria TV all these Russian influencers can post are RT TV articles. Or they post something a Pope said about Russia as if that's a magisterial teaching! Or they quote a "prophecy" that isn't aplicable in this circumstance. They are bombarding this platform with disinformation. And when you quote a Papal Encyclical they just assume it doesn't have anything to do with the modern age. They are completely modernist on the subject of the "Errors of Russia." God bless you!
"Fun Church" in Holy Week: Fr. Simon Teller, O.P., published a video on March 29 about the different ways people use palms on Palm Sunday. The examples include the deconstructionist, the artist, the hoarder, the tickler, the sword fighter, and the panda mode. Fr. Teller is a chaplain at Providence College in the United States.
Benjamin Netanyahu has ordered Israeli authorities to grant Cardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa of Jerusal “full and immediate access” to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem. He reversed an earlier decision after Israeli police blocked the Cardinal and few other priests from entering the holy site during Palm Sunday celebrations. The disproportionate restriction triggered strong international criticism from political leaders. Israel’s President Isaac Herzog personally apologized to the Cardinal following the incident. The video below shows the empty, silent streets of Jerusalem on Palm Sunday, devoid of the procession, olive and palm branches, and the cheers of the faithful. #newsOnyraezrlx
The streets are void the article says. Hmm, no processions, no faithful equals no tourism. No tourism equals no money. Hotels, restaurants, shops, all are empty.

Vice President JD Vance: “My advice to young men who are thinking about becoming fathers who are about to have babies is, you're never ready” “It will be shocking. It will be crazy. It will be the most difficult and the most rewarding thing that you’ve ever done.” "I would do it all again; in fact, I have one regret, it's a slight regret. I wish we had started early and had more” Don’t wait until everything is “Perfect” to have kids. Children are what perfects life.
The British journalist Melanie Phillips (who has written for The Guardian and The Times, among others) explains clearly how Western societies came to accept lies as truth. Following the experience of totalitarian structures in the 20th century, society rejected any external authority on principle. As a result, the hierarchy among opinions, values, worldviews and cultures also disappeared. Nothing could be better or worse than anything else. No lifestyle, no family background, no national culture, no religion. Anyone who failed to understand this was a racist. As a result, a liberal society could no longer claim to be better than an unfree society. The only thing that mattered was what the individual person felt. Their feelings were more important than any facts, because they used them to create their own reality. With that, the idea of an objective truth was done away with.
Pope Leo XIV has carried out a reshuffle at the Roman Curia, confirming weeks of leaks and speculation in the Italian media. He has reappointed careerists to different posts, but has once again failed to appoint a distinct Catholic. At the centre of the changes is Archbishop Edgar Peña Parra, who is leaving his influential role as Substitute for General Affairs — effectively the 'No. 2' in the Secretariat of State. He has been accused of being homosexual. Leo XIV has appointed him as Apostolic Nuncio to Italy and San Marino. This places him in one of the Holy See's most sensitive diplomatic roles, given the unique relationship between Italy and the Vatican. Monsignor Paolo Rudelli succeeded him as Sostituto. He was the Permanent Representative to the Council of Europe from 2014 to 2019 and most recently served as Nuncio to Colombia. His appointment also signals continuity in diplomatic appointments at the heart of Vatican governance. Furthermore, Archbishop Petar Rajić, until now the …Aswan
The 'smoke of Bergoglio' has not yet been removed from St. Peter! The Vatican Gardens' keepers should uproot and burn that evil pachamama shrub, planted by aka francis.
