Armand de Malleray preaches on the reading from the Acts of Apostles: Simon the Magician trying to buy the power of God.

Young people have the right to more traditional forms of liturgical experience, said Bishop Joel Portela Amado, 71, of Petrópolis, at a press conference of the Brazil Bishops in Aparecida, according to AciDigital.com. A journalist asked about a possible “return” of the Mass in the Roman rite and spoke about “young people who kneel to receive Communion” and “wear veils”. Bishop Joel replied it is important to consider broader trends, citing 2022 census data showing the highest number of people without religion is among those aged 19 to 39. “It’s not that they don’t believe in God. They are ‘unchurched’ - they believe in God, but lack a concrete path within the Church,” he said. Bishop Joel suggested this can lead young people to seek religious reference points, sometimes in past forms they did not grow up with. For him, such “diversity” is legitimate: “Do they have the right to be like this? Yes, because Catholicism is plural by nature, especially in a deeply plural world,” he said. …އިތުރު

Now I’m hesitant because you don’t know who’s going to come to the door.” Ordinary childhood: “Probably like anyone else’s—it was a mom and dad, three boys, school, homework, play, and repeat. It was just a normal life.” Childhood memory: “One time we were building a shed in the backyard and Rob fell through the roof. It was just part of the wood was rotted, because we were using old doors from the house for the roof.” Leo XIV’s early vocation: “We always knew that he wanted to be a priest. From a very young age, that was just always there.” A “prophecy”: “When he was maybe in first or second grade, one of the moms across the street said, ‘You know, he’s going to be the first American Pope.’ We just kind of heard it and moved on.” Still just brothers: “People say, ‘Who says no to the Pope?’ I …އިތުރު

Today, Leo XIV appointed Monsignor Michele Morandi as the new Bishop of Faenza-Modigliana, an Italian diocese with 130,000 Catholics and 80 parishes. Born in Alfonsine, Italy, in 1976, he was ordained a priest in 2003 and has served as a parish priest, rector of the diocesan seminary and vicar general of the diocese. Closed Seminary Is "Excellent Starting Point" As rector of the seminary, he wrote in 2024 for the 70 anniversary of the large seminary building in Faenza. The seminarians now study in Bologna. The building is called the 'former seminary' and used as a library, a school, a workplace and an art space, and has become a "secular place". For Monsignor Morandi, this was an "excellent starting point", as from that moment on, things were "no longer tainted by clerical and collegial imagery or clouded by a curtain of incense." Identification with the Synodal Process Monsignor Morandi took part in the Italian Church’s national synodal assembly in Rome. In a diocesan article from 2025…އިތުރު
This post furthers the Marxist dilectic by exposing its anti-Catholic bias towards MAGA/Zionism. I read in it, "But when a left wing ideologue wants to bash a conservative American President, facts can be most inconvenient."
As St. Robert Bellarmine explained, God always blesses just wars. And the Popes themselves proclaimed that the Crusades were the Wars of Christ, the Wars of God. How tiresome this endless fountain of heresies from the conciliar church is.
On April 19, 2005, Joseph Ratzinger became Benedict XVI On April 19, 2005, Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger was elected successor of Saint Peter and presented to the world as Pope Benedict XVI, on a day marked by the speed of the conclave and by first words that defined the tone of his pontificate from the outset. “A humble worker in the Lord’s vineyard” After the white smoke and his appearance on the central balcony of St. Peter’s Basilica, Benedict XVI addressed the faithful gathered in the square with an expression that has remained as a synthesis of his pastoral identity: “a simple and humble worker in the Lord’s vineyard.” Before a packed St. Peter’s Square, the new Pontiff acknowledged the magnitude of the mission received and appealed from the first moment to the prayer of the Church. “It consoles me that the Lord knows how to work with insufficient instruments as well,” he stated, showing an attitude of trust in God’s action more than in his own capacities.

On April 16, during the visit of Pope Leo XIV to Bamenda, Cameroon, Fon Fru Asaah Angwafor IV, the tribal leader of the Mankon community, spoke about polygamy. He made the remarks during an interreligious peace meeting in the cathedral. He is the hereditary "king" of the Mankon people and rules over culture and spiritual tradition. He presides over pagan rites, such as important funerals and ancestral ceremonies. During these events, he wears ceremonial attire alongside elders. He also identifies as 'Catholic'. In his speech at the cathedral, the tribal leader stated that 'some cultural practices continue to pose challenges' and cited polygamy as an example. He expressed gratitude that, within the framework of the 2023 and 2024 Synod, African bishops had been tasked with conducting a study on polygamy and its place in the life of the Church. The tribal chief went on to say that adulterers in polygamous relationships should be able to fully integrate into the Church without being 'judged …އިތުރު
Prevost refused to defend Catholic moral doctrine against the advocate of polygamy, the pagan apostate Fon Fru Asaah Angwafor IV. Prevost said nothing against this frontal assault on faith, but he did use his speech to launch a political weapon: “ Jesus told us: Blessed are the peacemakers! But woe to those who manipulate religion and the very name of God for their own military, economic or political gain, dragging that which is sacred into darkness and filth.”
Tony Seruga @TonySeruga ROME HAS FALLEN For the first time ever, the Vatican has built a Muslim prayer room inside its Apostolic Library. While Christians are banned from Mecca, while no church stands in Saudi Arabia, and while Europe’s cathedrals are being turned into mosques, Pope Leo XIV rolls out prayer rugs in the heart of Rome. He’s doing it side-by-side with Amy Pope, the UN’s migration chief and former Obama insider, who runs a billion-dollar machine moving “refugees” across the West. Together they preach “compassion” — but it’s really globalism disguised as faith. The UN engineers the migration. The Vatican blesses it. And Western civilization pays for it.

Leo XIV downplayed tensions with President Donald Trump on the flight to Luanda, Angola, today. “The talk that I gave at the prayer meeting for peace was prepared two weeks ago, well before the president ever commented. And yet it was looked at as if I was trying to debate again the president, which is not in my interest at all.” Leo XIV added that “much of what has been written since then has been more commentary on commentary, trying to interpret what has been said.”
“A certain narrative has spread, not entirely accurate, because of the political situation that arose when, on the first day of the journey, the President of the United States made some remarks about me. Much of what has been written since then has been little more than commentary upon commentary, in an attempt to interpret what was said. One example is the address delivered at the Prayer Meeting for Peace on 16 April. That address had been prepared two weeks earlier, well before the President commented on me and on the message of peace I am promoting. And yet it was interpreted as though I were trying to engage once again in debate with the President, which is not at all my interest. I come to Africa primarily as a pastor, as Head of the Catholic Church, to be with, to celebrate with, to encourage and to accompany all African Catholics.”

From Pope Francis, the idea of synodality remains - that is, the notion that the Church is a process of listening, consultation and struggle, Austrian Jesuit Andreas Batlogg told Kirche-und-Leben.de on 17 April. He has written several books about Francis, including an early biography. Regarding the 2019 Amazon Synod, Father Batlogg said that Francis had come close to abolishing celibacy: "Then there was massive backlash. And he slowed down." Something similar happened with the Synod on Synodality, which concluded without a final document. The internal division within the Church under Francis has become "very deep": "There was open resistance, not just behind the scenes." With Leo XIV, however, there has been "more of a shift in tone than a break in substance", according to Fr Batlogg. Leo XIV presents himself as calmer and more controlled, with a greater focus on clarity and a more traditional demeanour: "However, these are initially matters of style."

18.04.2026 The SSPX maintains the separation of Church and State, a leftist concept. Since they use the New Theology created with the False Premise they have collegiality, with the liberals. With the New Theology they are liberals on Ecumenism and Inter-Religious Dialogue, like the pope and the cardinals and bishops. Cushingism is liberalism and schism. They cite Tradition but in Tradition there were no separation between state and Church. Presently Pope Leo is aligned with the leftist state. They interpret Vatican Council II as does Pope Francis in Evangelii Gaudium. EG mentions hypothetical cases as if they are visible and personally known people, in the present times saved outside the Catholic Church. Ad Gentes 7 is not mentioned and it is assumed that Vatican Council II has explicit exceptions for AG 7 and the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus.

Spiegati gli Atti degli Apostoli | La nascita della Chiesa Gli Atti degli Apostoli sono un testo contenuto nel Nuovo Testamento, scritto in greco antico. La sua redazione definitiva risale probabilmente attorno all'80-90, ma sono state proposte anche datazioni verso il 60-70 d.C. La tradizione cristiana lo attribuisce a Luca, collaboratore di Paolo e autore del Vangelo secondo Luca.[Nota 1] Atti è composto da 28 capitoli e narra la storia della comunità cristiana dall'ascensione di Gesù (1,6-11) fino all'arrivo di Paolo a Roma (28,16), coprendo un periodo che spazia approssimativamente dal 30 al 63 d.C. Oltre che su Paolo, l'opera si sofferma diffusamente anche sull'operato dell'apostolo Pietro. Il libro descrive il rapido sviluppo, l'espansione e l'organizzazione della testimonianza cristiana prima tra i giudei e poi nelle nazioni che si affacciano sul Mediterraneo.

“The multiplication of the loaves and fishes occurred during the sharing; that is the miracle,” said Pope Leo XIV in his homily at the Japoma Stadium in Douala, Cameroon, on 17 April, which was attended by around 120,000 people. He continued: ‘There is bread for everyone if it is given to everyone. There is bread for everyone if it is taken not with a snatching hand, but with a giving hand.” Common heresy in the Francis era Here, Leo XIV reflects an idea that Pope Francis has returned to several times: that the multiplication of the loaves is not about a supernatural increase in food, but a transformation of human hearts that leads to sharing. During the Angelus on 26 July 2015, Francis said that 'the miracle does not consist in the multiplication itself, but in the sharing'. At the Angelus on 29 July 2018, and in various weekday homilies at Santa Marta, Francis reiterated that the true sign is not a miracle, but a change in attitude; the crowd learns to share.
