Emmanuel Macron’s request to accompany Leo XIV for a few minutes inside Notre-Dame Cathedral was not accepted by the Holy See, La Croix reports. This reflects a wider disagreement over the papal visit. Several requests from the Élysée were refused: the military welcome will be reduced, avoiding the Republican Guard and its drums; the Holy See declined the Grand Cross of the Legion of Honour; and there will be no state lunch or dinner with Macron.
LaCroix écrit que « la demande d’Emmanuel Macron d’accompagner le pape pendant quelques minutes à Notre-Dame n’a pas été acceptée par le Saint-Siège. Cet épisode met en lumière les divergences qui ont marqué les préparatifs : Paris envisageait une visite d’État, tandis que Rome voyait plutôt un voyage apostolique ».
If the Pope personally asked Macron not to approve the law that kills the sick, and the French government paid him no heed, why should the Holy See heed an anti-Catholic leader like Macron?
The Popes of Vatican II and the post-council with regard to the doctrine of Judeo-Christianity (“Ancient Covenant not abrogated”; “The Jews are saved without Christ”; “The Church must not evangelize the Jews”) are objectively “false preachers of the Gospel, who are to be regarded as blasphemers, condemned to anathema or extermination”...
However the sedevacantist interpretation of Vatican Council II is also irrational as that of Pope Leo XIV and the SSPX. Vatican Council II irrational is political left.
Leo XIV appoints military bishop who wants to “make a different Church”, and is open to female deacons and Communion for homosexuals. On September 14, Leo XIV has appointed Bishop Pedro Luis Fuentes Valencia, 58, as Military Ordinary for Bolivia. The Passionist bishop has served as apostolic administrator of the Military Ordinary since 2022, alongside his duties as auxiliary bishop of La Paz. Fuentes represented the Bolivian bishops at both sessions of the Synod on Synodality in Rome in 2023 and 2024. "Synodality Is Nature of Church" In October 2023 he spoke of having “the courage to build a different kind of church”. In June 2024, he defined synodality as “the very nature of the Church”. In July 2024, he repeated: “The Synod on Synodality is a way of being the Church.” And: “This is the Church’s identity: listening to one another, sharing, walking together, maturing together, growing together,” Communion for Homosexuals In October 2023, Monsignor Fuentes spoke about Holy Communion …Ọzọ
Here is an example of what I mean: the Pope has appointed a new bishop for Terni, Italy—in addition to appointing the infamous Bishop Saporito to the See of Metuchen. Here is what the traditionalist blog *Messainlatino* says about him: "Our sources inform us that the appointment of Monsignor Alfonso Raimo—currently Auxiliary Bishop of Salerno-Campagna-Acerno—as the new Bishop of Terni-Narni-Amelia will be announced shortly. We understand that he is the rector of the Church of San Giorgio Martire in Salerno, where the traditional Holy Mass is celebrated and where he has also delivered homilies, and that he holds 'orthodox' positions regarding doctrine." I am certain that Gloria.tv will publish an article defaming this bishop, claiming he said something "synodal," met with Protestants, or something similar. This amounts to discrediting the Church. Saporito is a heretic; Raimo is not. Yet for Gloria.tv and its followers, both are trash; this is lying and defamation.
You’re going to have a field day on Gloria.tv because the new Bishop of Metuchen, Saporito, is a genuine heretic—meaning you can use this appointment to discredit the Church, something that thrills you.
Autumn Ember Days is coming! Today (September 14) is the Exaltation of the Holy Cross. Autumn Ember Days follows this feast day. I don't know what days we fast for 2026! My guess is Sept 16, 18, 19. Some sources say Sept 23, 25, 26. It probably does not matter which week you choose. I intend to fast starting the Wednesday, September 16.
Leo XIV has named the homosexual activist Michael Saporito, 64, Bishop of Metuchen, New Jersey (September 15). Monsignor Saporito, 64, is currently auxiliary bishop of Newark. Institutional Connection to McCarrick A native of Newark, Saporito entered the McCarrick seminary in 1987. In 1992, Archbishop Theodore McCarrick ordained Saporito to the priesthood. In 1999, homosexual McCarrick elevated the young Rev Saporito as assistant director of vocations. Founded Homosexual Ministry in Parish During Saporito’s tenure as pastor of St. Joseph Church in Maplewood (2004–2011), the parish employed an openly homosexual man as its full-time director of music and liturgy. He said he disclosed the relationship before being hired. Furthermore, as pastor of St. Joseph, Rev Saporito founded a group for homosexuals called "Open Arms Ministry." A 2011 report noted that the parish's embrace of homosexuals came under Saporito: “Above all, according to parishioners, Saporito - through words and deeds …Ọzọ
I read that Raimo is another terrible bishop: pope appointed Bishop Alfonso Raimo, formerly Auxiliary Bishop of Salerno-Campagna-Acerno, to the Diocese of Terni-Narni-Amelia, Italy, on Tuesday. The 67-year-old prelate has a long history of missionary work and was the founder and president of the Eboli School of Interreligious and Intercultural Dialogue , where he championed interreligious dialogue as the only way to build peace. The appointment marks a rapid promotion for Raimo, whom Francis elevated to the episcopate just over two years ago, in April 2024. Since then, he has continued to actively participate in interreligious initiatives, including a Jubilee of Interreligious Dialogue held together with Muslim, Baha'i, Protestant, Orthodox, and Buddhist representatives. Raimo's dedication to interreligious dialogue predates his arrival to the episcopate. As a priest and vicar general of Salerno-Campagna-Acerno, he founded and presided over the Eboli School of Interreligious and …Ọzọ
15.09.2026 IT IS BECAUSE EVERYONE MAINTAINS ‘THE SECRET ‘ THAT DON LEONARDO POMPEI, THE SSPX AND ARCHBISHOP VIGANO CAN BE EXCOMMUNICATED It is because Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre interpreted Vatican Council II irrationally and not rationally, that Cardinal Victor Manuel Fernandez and Pope Leo and the cardinals and bishops, could excommunicate Don Leonardo Pompei , the SSPX bishops, Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigano and so many others. The Vatican can excommunicate the traditionalists because they, the traditionalists, interpret the Vatican Council II, the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus, the baptism of desire and the Creeds and Catechisms irrationally, like the liberals. If they choose to interpret Church Documents rationally, the progressivists cannot excommunicate them. For then, Vatican Council II etc would be traditional, dogmatic and ecclesiocentric. This has to be understood. It is important. It has to be made known to people in general that the pope, cardinals and bishops, must stop …Ọzọ
“Conservative” Auxiliary Bishop Josef Graf of Regensburg, Germany, can envision ordaining married men to the priesthood. Monsignor Graf made this remarks during a holiday in San Genesio, South Tyrol, where he also helped with the grape harvest in a local vineyard. He told Bz-bx.net: “I personally believe that the Church could afford viri probati”. He added that married priests would probably not solve the shortage of priests. On the ordination of women to the priesthood, Monsignor Graf said he believes it is “not possible.” He pointed there are “still” weighty theological reasons for reserving Holy Orders to men. #newsAdwjzpyvzr
Mature married men have worked out as well in the parishes founded by Anglicans who converted to Catholicism and, of course, historically in the Eastern Churches, so I don't see what people are worrying about. As long as they don't offer ordination to married men under the age of, say, 45 or 50, I think they'd make an excellent and much needed source of new priests.
The FSSPX makes its annual pilgrimage to Einsiedeln, but its procession remains on public ground. The Priestly Fraternity of St. Pius X (FSSPX) makes an annual Rosary pilgrimage to the famous Swiss monastery of Einsiedeln. This year’s pilgrimage takes place on October 10, but the public prayer procession is held only on public ground. Organised by the FSSPX-associated Militia Immaculatae, the procession has been held annually since 2021. Around 750 people participated in 2025. The distinction over where it takes place is significant. The lower part of the square in front of Einsiedeln Abbey, including the Marian fountain and the area up to the monastery arcades, belongs to the District of Einsiedeln and is public property. The upper part belongs to the monastery. The district has authorised the procession on its property. Fr. Philipp Steiner told kath.ch that the abbey had not been asked for permission and had only recently been informed of this year’s event. He stressed that “Einsiedeln …Ọzọ

The declaration was made during a discussion of the topic. A Square Deal for Every Man, which was the subject of Dr. Holderbys discourse Sunday morning. I wish to speak a word of caution to you today as regards your attitude towards one of our citizens who had been convicted of an atrocious crime, he said. It is not for me or for you to affirm that he is innocent or guilty. The jury has rendered its verdict. The question that concerns the church did this man have a fair and impartial trial? If the trial was conducted without vindictiveness and prejudice and the testimony was sufficient to convict then the verdict is just. But if …Ọzọ
Toronto Archdiocese cracks down on the traditional Latin Masses. Cardinal Francis Leo of Toronto, Canada, is implementing 'Traditionis Custodes', effective next Sunday. VoxCantor.blogspot.com published a terrifying detail: One Sunday per month, the Novus Ordo must be said. At the parish St. Vincent, the old high altar will be used. At the parish Holy Family the Novus Ordo will be presided over with the back to God facing the people. And: No other sacraments are permitted according to the 1962 usage. There are four major parish churches in the Archdiocese of Toronto celebrating the Roman rite: - St. Lawrence the Martyr Parish — Scarborough - St. Patrick’s Parish — Schomberg - Holy Family Parish — Toronto - St. Vincent de Paul Parish — Toronto The Masses at Schomberg and Scarborough have existed for over 40 years.

St. Vincent de Paul Parish has one TLM a week, a Missa Lecta on Sundays at 9:30am; its first monthly restriction is to happen next Sunday on September 20th, to be replaced by an English-language Mass "celebrated at the high altar in the Oratory way." As it stands, the parish already has Sunday morning Modern Roman Rite Masses in English at 8:30am and 11am (the latter with music). Holy Family Parish has had an 11am Sunday TLM Missa Solemnis for several years, now replaced once a month for a Latin Modern Roman Rite Mass versus populum, starting on September 27th; no mention was made of the parish's daily Traditional Latin Mass being affected, though the announcement noted that St. Vincent de Paul parishioners seeking Sunday refuge at Holy Family are advised that the Holy Family 11am Sunday TLM is already standing room only.
A Massachusetts family says the state took custody of their teenage daughter. The parents say it happened after they refused to affirm her as a boy, citing their Catholic faith. Joseph and Arlene Kutzko say a counsellor at Algonquin Regional High School socially "transitioned" their daughter Sophie with a male name and pronouns without their knowledge, then reported the family to the Department of Children and Families (DCF). Their attorney, Vernadette Broyles, says an abuse allegation against the father was found unsupported. The state now has guardianship, while a restraining order prevents Sophie’s parents and older brother from contacting her. The family says DCF sought to administer high-dose testosterone, but a judge has temporarily blocked the treatment as they fight the case. The next court hearing is October 29.

Interesting Miracle in Russia with Saint Nicholas in 1956. Saint Nicholas is the most popular Saint in Russia.

Pub Meeting (!) and FSSPX Mass Prompt Minnesota Bishop’s Warning Bishop Patrick Neary of Saint Cloud, Minnesota, issued a diocesan warning against the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (FSSPX) after an unauthorized Mass was celebrated in the diocese. In a letter dated September 2, Bishop Neary said he had learned of a social-media post promoting a meeting at the restaurant Opole Pub to “explore bringing the Latin Mass” to Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church in Opole. The same post advertised a Latin Mass for the following day at the Opole Ballpark Pavilion, part of the local baseball grounds. Monsignor Neary wrote that neither event was sanctioned by the diocese. Both, he said, involved a priest of the FSSPX — “a group recently declared by the Holy See to be in schism with the Catholic Church because of the illicit ordination of four bishops without a papal mandate.” The bishop told Catholics not to “support or participate in FSSPX-sponsored activities, including inviting FSSPX priests to …Ọzọ
