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-…ተወሳኺ
Bishop Aguer : "The four Eucharistic Prayers of the reformed Missal seem to have been displaced by the “zero prayer”; that is, by what the celebrant in turn desires. This and other doctrinal, moral, and disciplinary breakdowns emptied seminaries and convents, triggered massive defections in the clergy and religious life, and unleashed a bleeding in the Church." spanish in comment of Archbishop Aguer: Traditionis Custodes Fueled … french in comment of Mgr Aguer : « Traditionis Custodes » a suscité …
Abortion pills are every abuser’s dream. A few clicks. A package in the mail. A baby’s life is ended. A woman left to suffer alone. (Video from “Students for Life”—whose leaders earn enormous salaries)
"A woman left to suffer alone." . While this is the most common situation, please never overlook the fact that men's reproductive rights are completely and fully abrogated and usurped by women and by law. A woman may kill a man's son or daughter with complete impunity, no recourse for the father, and typically no sympathy or support for the father.
Unconscionable and unthinkable that this used to be the land of the free and home of the brave. America is now the home of baby murder. I think the Students for Life leaders earn every penny they get and more.

1) The Holy Scriptures teach about Purgatory as a Place of purification to attain the necessary holiness to see God. a) 2 Maccabees 12:39–46; The next day, they went in search of Judas to gather the bodies of those who had fallen and lay them to rest with their relatives in their fathers’ tombs. Then they found, under the tunics of each of the dead, objects consecrated to the idols of Jamnia, which the Law forbids to the Jews. It was then clear to all why those men had perished. They all blessed the works of the Lord, the just Judge who reveals hidden things, and they turned to supplication, praying that the sin committed might be completely erased. The valiant Judas urged the crowd to keep themselves free from sin, in light of what had happened because of the sin of those who had perished. After collecting nearly 2,000 drachmas from his men, he sent them to Jerusalem to offer a sin offering, acting in a most beautiful and noble way, with the resurrection in mind. For if he had not …ተወሳኺ
The French Ministry of the Armed Forces and the City of Versailles have announced on July 23 that the former Récollets Convent in Versailles will be converted into a luxury hotel. Located less than 100 meters from the Palace of Versailles, the historic site is expected to reopen around 2030. Built in 1684 during the reign of King Louis XIV, the convent was designed by architect Jules Hardouin-Mansart. It originally housed the Récollets, a reformed branch of the Franciscan Order. The monks lived in poverty, prayer, and preaching while serving the people of Versailles and the royal armies. Following the French Revolution, the monks were expelled and the property was nationalized. The convent chapel was demolished in 1796, and the remaining buildings were successively used as a prison, military infirmary, army barracks, and administrative offices. The French state will retain ownership of the property but will grant a long-term emphyteutic lease to a private operator responsible for restoring …ተወሳኺ

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

Bishop Blocks Electronic Music Concerts in Church: On July 23, Bishop Alexandre de Bucy of Agen, southwestern France, barred an electronic music festival from using the Saint-Robert Church for concerts scheduled on August 7–9. The church is municipally owned under French law, but the bishop has authority over its religious use and the French law forbids a secular use of state-owned churches. Organizers had reportedly failed—for the fourth consecutive year—to seek permission from either the parish or the Diocese of Agen. Parish priest Rev. Gilles N'Goran condemned the planned concerts as a "profanation."
L’évêque d’Agen, Alexandre de Bucy, a interdit un concert de musique électronique dans l’église Saint-Robert, faute d’autorisation de la paroisse et du diocèse. Le festival, prévu du 7 au 9 août, était organisé pour la quatrième année consécutive sans consultation préalable. Le curé, le père Gilles N’Goran, a dénoncé le projet comme une « profanation ».
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 …ተወሳኺ
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.

In the month of anniversary of Bloody Sunday in Roman-Catholic churches of Volhynia (July 1943), NCR likens the leader of "Banderam favens" Ukrainian Church Shevchuk to Cardinal Sapieha: "The heroic witness of Cardinal Adam Sapieha does not belong only to the past; it has an echo today in one of the bravest bishops of the 21st century, Major Archbishop Sviatoslav Shevchuk, head of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church. Indeed, given the changing political geography of Sapieha’s life, it could be argued that Shevchuk is one of his heirs." (cf.: 75 Years After His Death, Cardinal Sapieha’s …) Sapieha as the Archbishop of Cracow loudly denounced abominable crimes of Ukrainian banderism - including many murders of Catholic priests, also in churches and parish buildings, and sometimes during the Holy Mass. On March 27, 1944 after dramatic reports from the Archdiocese of Lwow and letters from Roman-Catholic Archbishop Boleslaus Twardowski Sapieha was compelled to write to Hans Frank: "Your …ተወሳኺ
