@Jeffrey Ade, my friends are Saints, Angels and good Catholics. I am very simple with that question. Friend is an very expensive word with a tremendous important meaning. Even more than own familie members. Our Lord said to us: " Majorem hac dilectionem nemo habet, ut animam suam ponat qui pro amicis suis." (Ioan 15,13) So, who would lay down his life for his friend, and not for his brother or uncle who would lay down his life.
Munich Liturgical Controversy Goes Around the Globe: Many Catholic media outlets across the globe - in English, French, Polish, Spanish, Italian, etc. - are reporting on the latest liturgical abuse from the Archdiocese of Munich and Freising. The case centers on a Mass for the feast of St. Mary Magdalene, where Auxiliary Bishop Wolfgang Bischof delivered a "dialogue homily" together with laywoman Theresia Reischl, despite the Holy See's recent reaffirmation that the homily during Mass is reserved to an ordained minister. The celebration also featured liturgical dancing and balloons, further fueling criticism.
Today, Fr Michael Mary, superior of the sedevacantist Transalpine Redemptorists in Scotland, will be consecrated as an alleged bishop. Katholisch.de traced the long and tangled succession lines of schismatic bishops, focusing primarily on the lines of Marcel Lefebvre (1905-1991) and Pierre Martin Ngô Đình Thục (1897–1984). Here are the key points:. Lefebvre line (FSSPX) Among the different splinter groups, only the SSPX has significant size. In 1988, Lefebvre consecrated Alfonso de Galarreta, Bernard Fellay, Bernard Tissier de Mallerais, and Richard Williamson as bishops. All four later consecrated additional bishops. In 1991, Tissier de Mallerais consecrated Licínio Rangel for the Priestly Union of St. John Mary Vianney, Brazil. Rangel and his community reconciled with Rome in 2002 and became an Apostolic Personal Administration. The same year Fernando Arêas Rifan became Rangel's coadjutor, but he was consecrated by Cardinal Darío Castrillón Hoyos, with Rangel serving only as co-…அதிகமாக
I used to wonder how the consecration requested by Our Lady of Fatima, in unison with all the Bishops of the world could ever take place since bishops are all over the place with their beliefs. Then I realized as these bishops ascend to heresy, they are no longer bishops so it may end up being some sede, bishops, SSPX and a few good sons of the church left in the NO. There is the manageable number.
Young Catholics in Brazil are expressing a desire for deeper faith formation, greater emphasis on holiness, and well-celebrated liturgy, while also voicing frustration with what they see as an excessive focus on sociopolitical issues in the Church, according to a national survey presented to the Brazilian Bishops' Conference (CNBB). The 2025 survey, conducted by the CNBB's Episcopal Commission for Youth with academic partners, gathered responses from more than 11,000 Catholics aged 12 to 29 across Brazil. It used a voluntary online questionnaire rather than a representative random sample. According to the partial results (document below), holiness and the Christian faith were the most frequently cited topics of interest among respondents. Many also expressed a desire for stronger formation in Catholic teaching, greater emphasis on Scripture and the Eucharist, and well-celebrated liturgy. Asked what makes participation in the Church more difficult, respondents most often pointed to a lack …அதிகமாக

German Balloon Mass with Female Dialogue Homily: On 22 July, a Eucharist in Munich to celebrate the Feast of St Mary Magdalene featured a woman performing a liturgical dance in a red dress. Another woman wearing an alb and a stole-like liturgical scarf delivered a dialogue homily with Auxiliary Bishop Wolfgang Bischof and stood near the altar during the Eucharist. Red balloons were also used during the celebration.

The former Catholic seminary and boarding school in Bay Shore, New York, is set to become a Muslim boarding school, reports LiBn.com on July 15. The United American Muslim Association (UAMA) purchased the building for $5.2 million. The 6,500-square-metre centre, founded in 1926 by the Montfort Missionaries, was used to train priests before later serving as a retreat house. Pending approval of a zoning change, the new owners intend to establish an Islamic boarding school for up to 120 boys. According to its website, UAMA aims to provide an education in accordance with the Quran and Sunnah. However, local residents have organised opposition to the proposal, with many displaying 'NO Boarding School' signs throughout the neighbourhood. Picture: Google street view, #newsAjnqxreavu
The Montfort fathers seem like they are shadow of their founder. I stopped going to their website after reading there that St. Luke's gossip is not really true, just a narrative.
Polish President Pardons Woman in High-Profile Free Speech Case: Polish President Karol Nawrocki pardoned in April 2026 Weronika Krawczyk, ending a widely debated free speech case. Krawczyk, a mother of three from the Starogard Gdański area (Pelplin diocese, near Gdańsk), was convicted over online posts warning other women about a gynecologist who, she said, had misdiagnosed her unborn son with Down syndrome and repeatedly urged her to have an abortion. Her son was born healthy in 2016. Krawczyk also refused a court-ordered apology to the doctor. The pardon lifted the order to publicize the verdict and the obligation to apologize. Her case had received support from pro-life and Catholic organizations, including Catholic Action in Poland and Bishop Ryszard Kasyna of Pelplin.
O sprawie pani Weroniki Krawczyk słyszała chyba cała Polska. Kobieta została skazana tylko za to, że odradziła na forum internetowym korzystanie z usług ginekologa, który chciał zabić jej nienarodzone dziecko. Lekarz ten proponował jej aborcję, twierdząc, że dziecko urodzi się z zespołem Downa. Ostatecznie urodziła zdrowego synka, a lekarz nie poniósł żadnej odpowiedzialności karnej. Pani Weronika natomiast została ukarana za opinię, w której wyraziła sprzeciw wobec jego działań. Sąd w Gdańsku skazał kobietę na 60 godzin prac społecznych oraz karę finansową, a także zobowiązał do przeprosin. Ponieważ nie wyobrażała sobie możliwości przeproszenia abortera, który chciał zabić jej dziecko, groziło jej realnie więzienie. Za Weroniką Krawczyk wstawiły się liczne środowiska pro-life, a później również biskup diecezji pelplińskiej. Jako matka trójki dzieci, w tym jednego z niepełnosprawnością, także ze względu na ich dobro wnioskowała do Prezydenta RP o ułaskawienie. Znają już Państwo szczęśliwe …அதிகமாக

Italian Bishop Celebrates Alpine Mass with Hosts in a Plastic Box: Worse than Germany: On 19 July, Bishop Derio Olivero, 65, of Pinerolo, Italy, celebrated at the Chisonetto Dam near the Italian ski resort Sestriere the annual "Mass in the Valley". Around 300 people attended lying on mats. Throughout the "liturgy" the hosts remained in a plastic storage container placed on the altar. The used cup was wooden.

These miserable people can't win on the battlefield so they attack children and civilians. How much more can Russia and Putin take? I think people should thank GOD for giving the world a man like President Putin who tries to avoid an outright WW.
“The enemy knew exactly who they were targeting and deliberately struck civilians,” Balitsky said in a statement on Max. “This is a blatant crime..." Why does anyone support governments that commit war crimes?!
Why God Sometimes Allows Spiritual Darkness During times of spiritual difficulty and purification, it may feel like God has abandoned us, but this is not the case. God allows us to experience these feelings to purify us of selfishness and strengthen our virtues. Like Mother Teresa, we should focus on loving and serving others, even when we don’t feel God’s presence, because He is always with us, guiding us towards sainthood. The journey to holiness involves four stages: the active and passive nights of the senses, and the active and passive nights of the spirit. While we can actively pursue virtues like humility, true perfection requires God’s transformative work through trials and darkness. These experiences, though painful, are ultimately rewards that purify us and deepen our charity, the foundation of all virtues. Fr.

The Dead End to Trump’s ‘Perfect’ War July 25, 2026 nytimes.com/…nion/trump-iran-saudi-arabia-war-nuc… By Nicholas Kristof Opinion Columnist “We won,” President Trump announced on March 11, less than two weeks into his Iran war. “In the first hour, it was over.” On March 24, in the Oval Office, he reiterated, “This war has been won.” On April 6, he asserted, “They are militarily defeated.” On April 11, Trump posted on Truth Social, “The United States has completely destroyed Iran’s Military.” “The war in Iran is going along swimmingly,” Trump said on April 16. “It’s perfect.” The perfection of Trump’s war has confused some of his supporters. “I don’t understand how it’s possible that Iran has the capabilities to fight this way and continue to try to lash out at Gulf countries and U.S. military bases,” Maria Bartiromo of Fox News said on air recently. “Because the U.S. has obliterated Iran’s military, and the president continues to reiterate that.” Yet Trump’s perfect war seems …அதிகமாக
