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 …Aktar
Don't let the Sacraments available in your time go to waste. Edited: Don't let them pass you by. Because they are not ever wasted. They go to someone else or for other graces. Graces for all defects supplied.
Cardinal Pizzaballa on Palm Sunday: “In this afternoon of Palm Sunday we gather without a procession, without palms waving through the streets. This absence is not merely a matter of formalities. It is the war that has interrupted our festive journey, making even the simple joy of following our King difficult.” “Today Jesus weeps once more over Jerusalem. He weeps over this city, which remains a sign of both hope and sorrow, of grace and suffering. He weeps over this Holy Land, still unable to recognize the gift of peace. He weeps for all the victims of a war that seems without end: for divided families, for shattered hopes. But the tears of Jesus are never fruitless. They open our eyes, challenge us, and reveal the truth.”
Nach heftiger Kritik Kardinal erhält doch Zugang zu Grabeskirche Eine Zugangssperre für Kardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa zur Grabeskirche in der Jerusalemer Altstadt hat am Sonntag für Aufsehen gesorgt. Der höchste Vertreter der katholischen Kirche im Heiligen Land wollte dort die Palmsonntag-Messe feiern, wurde jedoch von der israelischen Polizei angehalten und zur Umkehr aufgefordert. Dieser Vorfall sorgte für heftige Kritik. Ministerpräsident Benjamin Netanjahu ruderte nun zurück und ordnete an, dass Pizzaballa „sofortigen“ Zugang zur Kirche erhalten solle. Online seit heute, 7.21 Uhr Netanjahu führte Sicherheitsbedenken als Grund für die ursprüngliche Maßnahme an: „In den vergangenen Tagen hat der Iran wiederholt die heiligen Stätten aller drei monotheistischen Religionen in Jerusalem mit Marschflugkörpern ins Visier genommen. Bei einem Angriff schlugen Raketensplitter wenige Meter von der Grabeskirche entfernt ein.“ Zum Schutz der Gläubigen habe Israel Menschen aller …Aktar
Jerusalem: Kardinal an Zutritt zu Grabeskirche gehindert Der höchste Vertreter der katholischen Kirche im Heiligen Land, Kardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa, ist von der israelischen Polizei am Zugang zur Grabeskirche in der Altstadt von Jerusalem gehindert worden. Der Italiener Pizzaballa habe in der Kirche die traditionelle Messe zum Palmsonntag feiern wollen, sei aber von israelischen Polizisten angehalten und zur Umkehr aufgefordert worden, teilte das Lateinische Patriarchat von Jerusalem heute mit. Reuters/Ammar Awad Mit ihm sei zudem der Kustos im Heiligen Land, Francesco Ielpo, gewesen. Der Franziskaner ist der oberste Wächter der Heiligen Stätten, einschließlich der Grabeskirche. Das Lateinische Patriarchat von Jerusalem bezeichnete den Vorfall als „schwerwiegenden Präzedenzfall“.
@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!

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 …Aktar

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.
Bishop Michael Martin of Charlotte, North Carolina, has defended his decisions to restrict the celebration of the Traditional Latin Mass to only one location and to prohibit the use any tools for kneeling at Communion. In an interview with AmericaMagazine.org on 26 March, he began with a thinly veiled dismissal of Catholics attached to the Roman rite: "I don't want to say that they're some sort of lunatic fringe. They're not. These are people who feel strongly about the liturgy, and there's goodness and holiness in that." Leo XIV Would Not Change what Francis Has Done Monsignor Martin referred to his responsibility as a bishop to maintain fidelity to the Church’s "norms". He framed his cruel decisions, especially those relating to the Traditional Latin Mass, as an act of obedience: "All I did was implement Traditionis Custodes in the Diocese of Charlotte." The bishop rejected the idea of extending the existing Masses indefinitely without a clear pastoral plan to end them: "If we need …Aktar
Bishop Michael Martin says he didn’t expect Leo to defend the Traditional Latin Mass and is moving to eliminate its influence, including removing altar rails and limiting the old Mass in Charlotte.
Multiple governments - including the USA, France, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Lebanon, and Poland, - condemned Israeli police for blocking a private prayer by Cardinal Pizzaballa at the church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem today. In response, Israeli officials say they are working on a plan to allow church leaders to worship at the holy site in the coming days. Cardinal Pizzaballa told TV2000 that there were no clashes: "Everything was done in a very polite manner. I do not want to force the issue. We want to use this situation to try to clarify better in the coming days what to do, in respect for everyone's safety but also in respect for the right to prayer."
Cardinal Pizzaballa: “It is true that the police had said that the orders from the internal command prevented any kind of gathering in places where there is no shelter, but we had not asked for anything public, just a brief and small private ceremony to preserve the idea of the celebration in the Holy Sepulchre. There were no clashes; everything was done in a very polite manner. I do not want to force the issue; we want to use this situation to try to clarify better in the coming days what to do, in respect for everyone's safety but also in respect for the right to prayer."

Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf: "Iran is not negotiating with the U.S.; false reports are manipulating the markets, the speaker said." Iran has not held negotiations with the United States, and false reports are being used to manipulate markets, Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf said on Monday. “No negotiations have taken place with the US, and false reports are being used to manipulate financial and oil markets and to escape the quagmire in which the US and Israel are trapped,” the speaker said on the X program. Earlier that same day, Trump stated that the United States and Iran had held very positive and productive talks over the past two days and announced the postponement of U.S. attacks on Iran’s energy infrastructure. The president also expressed hope that progress would be achieved within five days, a CNBC reporter reported following an interview with the president.

Israeli police prevented two of the most senior Catholic leaders in the Holy Land - Cardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa of Jerusalem, and Father Francesco Ielpo, Custos of the Holy Land - from entering the Church of the Holy Sepulchre on Palm Sunday. Lpj.org announced that they were stopped while walking to the church, where they were scheduled to celebrate the Eucharist on Palm Sunday. They were required to turn back, despite not participating in any public gathering. As a result, the church leaders were unable to preside over the Palm Sunday liturgy. This is unprecedented in modern times. The Latin Patriarchate added they had complied with all restrictions imposed since the outbreak of the ongoing conflict, including canceling public gatherings and arranging for services to be broadcast to the faithful worldwide. They characterized the decision to block access as “unreasonable” and “disproportionate”. #newsTjnhyvbccs
