Opus Dei has rejected claims that it took the historic Virgin of Torreciudad in Spain without permission. The Diocese of Barbastro-Monzón owns the statue, but Opus Dei says agreements from 1962 and 1966 allowed it to care for the image and move it to the new Torreciudad church. It has remained there since 1975. Bishop Ángel Pérez Pueyo wants the statue returned to the old hermitage. Opus Dei says a 1966 notarial document shows that the move was authorized. The old hermitage and the new church are only a few metres apart at the same Torreciudad site. What began as a legal disagreement over old agreements and the statue’s location has developed into an increasingly bitter and personal Church dispute.
Pope Benedict XVI: Padre Pio an instrument of the power of the Cross. on Jun 21, 2009 Padre Pio was "seized by Christ" to become "a chosen instrument of the perennial power of his Cross: the power of love for souls, forgiveness and reconciliation, spiritual fatherhood, effective solidarity with the suffering."

Stop calling it a crisis; this is not a "crisis" of the Church—it is a great trial; we are living through the Great Apostasy. It is the Great Rebellion of the Bergoglian-Prevostian "rainbow" sect against God. Just as the apostate angels joined Lucifer, bad and lukewarm Catholics have supported the rebellion against God led by the apostate Pachamama-worshippers Jorge Bergoglio and Robert Prevost.
Vatican concludes “reflection process” with bi-ritual congregation SJM. The Vatican has formally concluded a multi-year reflection process involving the Servants of Jesus and Mary (SJM), a Catholic religious congregation in Austria, founded in 1988. The community celebrates both the Novus Ordo and the traditional Roman rite. It remains closely associated with the Catholic Scouts of Europe (KPE). The Vatican’s process began in late 2022, when it appointed former abbot Raimund Schreier as Apostolic Assistant. His task was to “accompany” the SJM for a period originally planned to last three years. The community examined its history, internal structures, self-understanding and its founder, former Jesuit Andreas Hönisch. In June, the community and the Apostolic Assistant submitted the relevant documents to the Vatican’s Dicastery for Religious. It has now declared the process concluded. According to the SJM, the dicastery encouraged the congregation to: - “continue promoting an open culture …વધારે

Leo XIV awards Ratzinger Prize to theologian who attacked Benedict XVI’s Summorum Pontificum. John C. Cavadini will be awarded with the 2026 Ratzinger Prize, announced today by the Joseph Ratzinger–Benedict XVI Vatican Foundation. Pope Leo XIV will present the prize on December 19 at the Apostolic Palace. Cavadini, a professor of theology at the University of Notre Dame in Indiana, has written extensively on Ratzinger. Benedict XVI. appointed him to the International Theological Commission in 2009. Cavadini is an explicit critic of Benedict's Motu Proprio Summorum Pontificum that liberalized the traditional Roman rite. In 2022, the three "conservatives" Cavadini, Mary Healy and Fr Thomas Weinandy published a series in Notre Dame’s Church Life Journal on the post-Vatican II liturgical reform. “In normalizing the Tridentine Mass, Benedict undermined the principle by which, as he himself insists, Vatican II must be interpreted: a hermeneutic of continuity,” they wrote. They went further …વધારે
Another thing that might disappear is all the freedom journalist have in Russia. ‘I feel more free’ reporting in Russia – Rick … Video is included in article. As you can see at the bottom of this post, it says The statements, views and opinions expressed in this column are solely those of the author and do not necessarily represent those of RT. Which proves they have much more freedom in Russia than the US. Rick Sanchez once said, he does not have anyone forcing him to write anything or looking over his shoulders at what he was preparing. I would think that this is more than enough proof including the many posts I have put up. Why Russia’s election results left Western media …

After more than four centuries, the Dominicans have left the Sanctuary of Nuestra Señora de Las Caldas de Besaya in Cantabria, Spain. Last Sunday, the Dominicans formally entrusted the sanctuary to the Diocese of Santander. The church will remain a place of worship. The property continues to belong to the Dominicans. But the resident Dominican community - once one of the Order’s important houses in Spain - has come to an end. The scale of the change is captured by Fr. Francisco García Ortega OP, the last superior of the community. He entered the Dominican Order at Las Caldas 55 years ago, aged 17. At the time, the sanctuary housed Dominican philosophical studies. “We were more than 200 friars, and now we are only two,” García Ortega told DiocesisDeSantander.com. Those two are García Ortega and Fr. Fernando Serrano Pérez OP, who has served at Las Caldas for about 30 years. The Dominicans first came to Las Caldas in the early 17th century. Fr García Ortega noted that during four centuries …વધારે

The YARN British police questioned a Christian street preacher after complaints that his Bible sermon was racist and homophobic, despite admitting they had not heard it and could not identify the offending words. He denied the claims, produced his own recording and was neither arrested nor charged in the exchange. Officers repeatedly suggested that a listener feeling harassed, alarmed or distressed could establish a public-order offence. It cannot. Section 5 of the Public Order Act requires threatening or abusive conduct likely to cause that result. Section 4A also requires intent. A complainant’s perception may trigger a hate-related police record, but it cannot create an underlying crime. Britain’s Court of Appeal exposed this danger in the Harry Miller case, finding that police guidance on non-crime hate incidents unlawfully chilled freedom of expression. Sections 29J and 29JA separately protect criticism and expressions of antipathy towards religions, beliefs and sexual conduct from …વધારે
Leo XIV will not use the Roman Canon in France. The Vatican's missal for the Pope’s September 25–28 apostolic journey confirms that all three papal Masses - Paris, Lourdes and Metz - will use Eucharistic Prayer III. The ancient Roman Canon, Eucharistic Prayer I, is absent. At Lourdes on Sunday, the liturgy will include the Gloria de Angelis, Credo III, Latin Sanctus and Agnus Dei, and sprinkling with water drawn from Massabielle.

A bakery in Chiclayo, Peru, has launched “Dulce Bendición,” a Pope-shaped version of King Kong. This local dessert is made from layers of biscuit and manjar blanco, a milk-caramel filling. The first 500, shaped like Pope Leo XIV, sold out on launch day. The bakery plans to make up to 1,000 a day in November, when Leo XIV visits Peru.
