“Pope Francis was like a second father to me, and I still miss him deeply,” said his nurse, Massimiliano Strappetti, 56, in an interview with Corriere.it on April 19. Francis hated hospital stays and joked whenever he had to go to Gemelli Hospital: “You’ll see—the cardinals are preparing the conclave now.” “Every morning when he woke up, he would ask me, ‘Hello, who died today?’ That was just how he was,” Strappetti recalled. One day, Strappetti told Francis that he was divorced and living with another woman. The pope replied: “And what’s the problem?” He then asked: “Do they let you receive Communion? If not, tell me the names of those priests who refuse - I’ll go speak to them myself!” For Strappetti, Francis was a “surprising” pope. #newsAzcbcontal
When Prevost challenged Catholic morality to promote the "informal," sacrilegious blessing for sodomite concubines—describing the agenda of his synodal sect—he stated: "Equal freedom for men and women, freedom of religion—all of that would take priority over that particular issue."
Meeting for the first time with Anglican Dame Sarah Mullally, who holds the title Archbishop of Canterbury, Leo XIV encourages Catholics and Anglicans to proclaim Christ together. They prayed together in the Urban VIII Chapel in the Apostolic Palace. Leo XIV spoke about a fake archbishop who was an Anglican layman, and a pope who was far from saintly. “When archbishop Michael Ramsey and Saint Pope Paul VI announced the first theological dialogue between Anglicans and Catholics [in 1966], they spoke of seeking the ‘restoration of complete communion in faith and sacramental life’. Certainly this ecumenical journey has been complex. While much progress has been made on some historically divisive issues, new problems have arisen in recent decades, rendering the pathway to full communion more difficult to discern. I know that the Anglican Communion is also facing many of these same questions at this time. Nevertheless, we must not allow these continuing challenges to prevent us from using …Yana
He warns that such people compensate for their "inner weakness" by becoming overly bossy. This also happens in the Industrial workforce. With an inexperienced person placed into a position of power and authority, power quickly goes to his head and leadership skills are lost. A "How to Become a Good Supervisor" seminar focuses on transitioning from individual contributor to leader by mastering communication, conflict resolution, and performance management. Key topics include active listening, setting clear expectations, delivering constructive feedback, and building team trust. These seminars, often available via SkillPath, AMA, or online modules, emphasize practical tools to boost team morale and productivity. The guy who really wants the job is the guy who should never be promoted, it'll go to his head.
Talking to Gloria.tv, Bishop Athanasius Schneider asks Pope Leo XIV to permit the episcopal consecrations of the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X. Since Leo XIV continually calls for peace in the world, the bishop argues that he should also foster peace within the Church. If he cannot make peace with the faithful and clergy of the FSSPX — Catholics who love and pray for the Pope — then his appeals for peace will lose credibility. Bishop Schneider therefore recommends that the Pope allow the consecrations as a gesture of reconciliation and to build bridges with the FSSPX, with whom he should continue discussions towards a lasting solution.
Ausschnitt aus diesem Video: "Wenn der Papst in der Welt zum Frieden aufruft, sollte er auch innerhalb der Kirche Frieden stiften. Eine Erlaubnis der Bischofsweihen wäre ein seelsorgliches Zeichen des Dialogs und der Versöhnung mit der Piusbruderschaft – als Brücke zu weiterer Klärung und Einheit."

Leo XIV managed to top Francis! “As my beloved predecessor, Pope Francis, said to the Primates of the Anglican Communion in 2024, ‘it would be a scandal if, due to our divisions, we [leaders of the Conciliar-Synodal church and Anglican sect] did not fulfill our common vocation [!!!] to make Christ known’ (Address to Primates of the Anglican Communion, 2 May 2024).”
Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint John 10,22-30. The feast of the Dedication was taking place in Jerusalem. It was winter. And Jesus walked about in the temple area on the Portico of Solomon. So the Jews gathered around him and said to him, "How long are you going to keep us in suspense? If you are the Messiah, tell us plainly." Jesus answered them, "I told you and you do not believe. The works I do in my Father's name testify to me. But you do not believe, because you are not among my sheep. My sheep hear my voice; I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish. No one can take them out of my hand. My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all, and no one can take them out of the Father's hand. The Father and I are one." shareyourcatholicfaith
Monday, April 27 – Saint Peter Canisius, Confessor and Doctor of the Church – Saint Zita of Lucca, Virgin, Servant, Secular Third Order of Franciscans – Grand Duchy of Luxembourg: Blessed Mary, Consoler of the Afflicted
Saint Pierre Canisius, prêtre de la Compagnie de Jésus, confesseur et docteur de l’église. Sanctoral Saint Pierre Canisius, Confesseur et Docteur de l’Église – Veillons à l’enseignement catholique de nos enfants. Pierre Canisius naquit à Nimègue en Gueldre, l’année même où, en Allemagne, Luther brisait avec l’Église par une révolte ouverte, tandis qu’en Espagne, Ignace de Loyola abandonnait la milice terrestre et se consacrait à soutenir les combats du Seigneur : Dieu voulant sans doute annoncer par cette double coïncidence quels seraient dans la suite ses adversaires et sous quel chef il s’enrôlerait dans la sainte milice. A Cologne où l’avaient amené ses études, Pierre se lia à Dieu par le vœu de chasteté perpétuelle et s’enrôla, peu après, dans la Compagnie de Jésus. Revêtu du sacerdoce, il entreprit aussitôt, par ses missions, ses sermons et ses écrits, de défendre la foi catholique contre les attaques perfides des novateurs. Par deux fois il prit part au Concile …
