Netherlands Church Burned to the Ground on New Year’s Eve: The historic Vondelkerk Church in Amsterdam was severely damaged by a fire shortly after midnight on New Year’s Eve. The church was desecrated in 1977 and has not been used for Eucharistic services since then. The fire broke out in the early hours of 1 January. The cause of the fire is under investigation. It is believed that youth gangs using fireworks were responsible for the fire. The church’s roof and tower collapsed, and the authorities confirmed that the building could not be saved. Nearby residents were evacuated as a precaution, and there have been no reports of injuries or fatalities. Built in the 19th century, the church was a protected historic landmark and cultural venue.

"Youths with fireworks" "A worker smoking [Notre Dame]" all these suspicious causes of the arson of Christian churches... Could it be that the "immigrants welcomed" in Europe are doing a little 'renovation'???

Videos released in Epstein files raise fresh questions about jail footage A recently released cache of surveillance video from the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York City is raising new questions about the prison cameras at the facility where Jeffrey Epstein died in his cell in 2019. The videos were among a huge cache of materials released on Dec. 23 by the Department of Justice as congressionally mandated by the Epstein Files Transparency Act. Rather than clarifying events surrounding Epstein's death, the footage appears to complicate the official narrative, and contradicts some prior statements about the prison's surveillance system. The Epstein jail videos Epstein was found dead in his cell at approximately 6:30 a.m. on Aug. 10, 2019, by a corrections officer delivering breakfast at the Metropolitan Correctional Center, where he was awaiting trial on federal sex trafficking charges. His death was ruled a suicide by the city's chief medical examiner. Three months later,…Күбрәк
Remarkable Transformation: St. Cecilia’s Catholic Church in Ames, Iowa, has undergone a transformation from its 1972 modernist design to create a more sacred space. In the early 2000s, the original narthex was demolished in preparation for the renovation. Although a new narthex was completed in 2005, the church renovation itself did not proceed at that time. In early 2023, the priest of St. Cecilia's commissioned a renovation project with three main objectives: to increase the amount of natural light, to harmonise the church with the existing narthex and to incorporate sacred art and furnishings. Explore the before-and-after images.
Before and After: St. Cecilia's Catholic Church in Ames, Iowa
Home » Architecture » Before and After: St. Cecilia's Catholic Church in Ames, Iowa One of the architects at SVPA Architects, an architectural firm based in West Des Moines, lowa, recently reached out to LAJ to inform us of a recently completed a renovation at St. Cecilia's Catholic Church in Ames, lowa -- a church that was only rededicated this past July 24th (the photos here predate that please note, hence why there are no altar cloths or candlesticks upon the altar). They have provided us with the following detailed background about the church and the project in question: St. Cecilia's current church and parish hall was originally built in 1972 in a modernist style.. There was very little in the way of liturgical art, the altar and other sanctuary furnishings were movable, the tabernacle was located off the central axis, and the narthex was dimly lit... In the early 2000s the original narthex was torn down with the intent to build a new narthex and a new church in a second phase.…
Looks like random discarded "stuff" in someone's basement. The flattened spirituality of priests is well represented in that horrible excuse for "liturgical art".
Repelling the Ukrainian Armed Forces' attack on Putin's residence! Ukrainian drones heading towards the Russian president's residence were shot down. The attack was repelled on 29 December 2025 in the Valdai district of Novgorod region. The first drones came from the south, from the Tver region, the second from the west. 41 drones were destroyed. The call sign Grom showed the 'Chaklун-V' device. The warhead contained a six-kilogram explosive charge. It was filled with destructive elements designed to target personnel. Shot down by a hit to the tail, the warhead remained intact and has been examined. Как Украина атаковала резиденцию Путина?

refer to St Thomas Aquinas on immigration...according to the Saint, one requirement is that the immigrant not change the existing culture. Certain basic beliefs must be the same. Prior immigrants from Italy, Poland, France, etc were from countries/cultures that understood Christendom (granted, often honored in the breach)
Trump Praises the Pope’s “MAGA Brother”: On 30 December, President Donald Trump hosted Louis Prevost, the brother of Pope Leo XIV, at a private gathering at his Mar-a-Lago club in Palm Beach, Florida. Trump introduced Prevost and his wife, Deborah, to the guests. Trump expressed his admiration for the Pope's brother, recalling that when the new Pope was elected earlier this year, television coverage showed him outside his home surrounded by MAGA signs — a moment that Trump said made him "love this guy". A vocal Trump supporter, Louis Prevost has drawn attention for political posts that contrast with his brother’s positive views on immigration.

By Phil Lawler ( bio - articles - email ) | Dec 31, 2025 As the year 2025 comes to an end, so does my career as editor of Catholic World News. I am retiring from the daily-news business, effective January 1. CWN was born during the height of the “dot.com” era. Dozens of online enterprises sprang up in the 1990s, made sensational claims, earned millions for their founders, and then disappeared without a trace, never having produced a saleable product. Thirty-odd years later, little CWN is still chugging along, providing reliable headline news coverage for thousands of readers every weekday. But beginning this week, CWN will be chugging along without me. Thirty years is a long time to plow through news releases, write up stories, check sources, and read Vatican news releases every day. Although I still love my work, and feel the urge to keep writing, I also recognize a need to step away from the daily grind and work on my own projects, on my own schedule. As I bow out, I owe a debt …
Gerhard Ludwig Cardinal Müller in homily in English at Mass in memory of Pope Benedict XVI, on the eve of the Third Anniversary of his death, says of the late Pope: “Both as a professor of theology and a mass sought-after preacher, he consistently put himself in the service of the word. As prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, he set standards of the highest diligence, intellectual precision and incorruptibility for the Roman magisterium. During his pontificate, he was one of the greatest theologians on the Kathedra Petri.”

Leo XIV Dismissed Ceremonial Master for These Remarks (Video): SilereNonPossum.com published a video in which Monsignor Marco Agostini can allegedly be heard referring to the College of Cardinals as "faggots" ("culattoni tutti insieme"). This remark was made before the Christmas meeting with Leo XIV, and it is clear that the speaker was unaware that the microphone was on. The context and intended recipients of the remark remain unclear. Leo XIV dismissed Monsignor Agostini from his position at the Office for the Liturgical Celebrations, where he frequently stood beside the Pope. SilereNonPossum - run by Marco Perfetti who admits to having homosexual tendencies - insinuates on X.com that Monsignor Agostini is tempted in the same way: "Unfortunately, within the Church, there are many homosexuals who do not accept themselves. And many behave like Agostini: they project onto others what they cannot tolerate in themselves." Meanwhile, the Vatican has shown extraordinary tolerance towards …Күбрәк

WE DO NOT CALL ABORTION ABORTION WE CALL IT KILLING, ASSASSINATION OF INNOCENT BABIES. LIKEWISE WE CALL PIRACY WHAT IT IS. IT WAS BROUGHT TO THE ATTENTION OF THE UNITED NATIONS BY RUSSIA, CHINA, AND VENEZUELA; THE UNJUSTIFIED CRIMES COMMITTED IN THE CARIBBEAN BY THE U.S. WHERE D.T. HIMSELF IN A CYNICAL WAY ADMITTED VENEZUELA WAS HIS AND SO WAS ITS OIL. SAME WITH GREENLAND WHERE HE AGAIN ADMITTED THAT HE WOULD SEND THE MILITARY TO TAKE IT, AND GOT THE ENTIRE EUROPEAN UNION AS AN ENEMY. IN THE U.S. HE ALWAYS BLAMES EVERYONE, HE ALWAYS CALLS EVERYTHING "NATIONAL SECURITY" AND SUCH, ALL THE TRUTH IS COMING OUT BUT MANY AMERICANS WHO ARE WATCHING THE NATIONAL AND LOCAL NEWS (TRADITIONAL NEWS) ARE STILL IN DARKNESS. THOSE CATHOLICS THAT SUPPORT THIS LUNACY HAVE BLOOD IN THEIR HANDS AND THEY'D BETTER REPENT BEFORE THEY GO BEFORE OUR LORD TO GIVE ACCOUNT FOR SUPPORTING TYRANNY. WATCH INDEPENDENT NEWS.
