Patriarch accuses Curia Cardinal. Syriac Catholic Patriarch Ignatius Youssef III Younan has accused Curia Cardinal Claudio Gugerotti, prefect of the Dicastery for the Eastern Churches, of helping orchestrate an effort to remove him. Younan told the Substack.com-account 'The Pillar' that Gugerotti encouraged bishops to turn against him. He also alleges that Gugerotti helped develop the new papal law now being used against him. Younan, 81, has led the Syriac Catholic Church since 2009. He is the first Eastern Catholic patriarch to face proceedings under Pope Leo XIV’s 'Mutua concordia', promulgated on August 29. The process against him was reportedly initiated on September 4 - just six days later. Under the new law, a synod may request a patriarch’s resignation for a grave cause. If he refuses, proceedings can continue under another bishop’s presidency. Removal requires a two-thirds secret vote, the patriarch must be allowed to defend himself, and the decision requires papal assent. The …Ibindi
Trump’s New Favorite Neighbor: Mexico nytimes.com/…3/world/americas/trump-mexico-trade-… President Trump built his political brand in part on bashing Mexico. Now his second presidency depends on deepening partnerships with the country. By Jack NicasEmiliano Rodríguez Mega and Zolan Kanno-Youngs Jack Nicas reported from Mexico City and Washington. Emiliano Rodríguez Mega reported from Mexico City. Zolan Kanno-Youngs reported from Washington. Sept. 23, 2026 Leer en español The U.S.-Canada relationship has imploded. But along the other, typically more contentious U.S. border, a partnership is blooming. In his second term, President Trump has made Mexico — once his favorite punching bag — now one of his closest and most important allies. The two nations have expanded cooperation to slow illegal border crossings to historic lows, joined forces to disrupt drug cartels and increased commerce to become each other’s biggest trading partners. Mr. Trump opened his second term by threatening …Ibindi
Cardinal McElroy hails Leo XIV’s shift from “unfortunate” Catechism teaching. Cardinal Robert McElroy of Washington, writing at NcROnline.org on September 23, said that “during the past six months, we have witnessed a remarkable transformation in Catholic teaching on war.” McElroy praised the “tremendous progress” made during that period toward “eclipsing the role of the just war tradition in Catholic teaching.” “The just war framework has been distorted to become a source of justification for those inclined to go to war, rather than a constraint on war,” McElroy claimed. Then this: “One of the accelerants for this trend is the unfortunate statement in the Catechism of the Catholic Church that the evaluation of the just war criteria belongs to those who have responsibility for the common good.” The cardinal's statement comes in the wake of Leo XIV’s encyclical 'Magnifica Humanitas'. In §192, Leo XIV writes that just-war theory “is now outdated.” However, Catechism 2309 doesn’t say …Ibindi
" The man who would sooner die than offend God, feels death and the pain of dying ; but the sight of God supplies him with a zeal which makes him think more of the Divine honour than bodily death. In like manner, a soul knowing what God has appointed for it thinks more of the appointment than any outward or inward pain, no matter how dreadful ; and this be cause God, the Author of it, surpasses everything that can be thought of or imagined."
‘HOW GOD MAKES USE OF PURGATORY…’ ~ ‘Treatise on Purgatory’ by Saint Catherine of Genoa; 1915; Chapters XVII; pp. 48-52; part II [Saint Catherine of Genoa ~ XV-XVI Century; born: Genoa, Republic of Genoa/ died: Genoa, Republic of Genoa; (aged 62-63); Mystic; Spiritual Writer] I am sensible of all these things I have described as it were by sight and touch, but I cannot find fitting words to express myself as I could wish. I have said what I have, because I was conscious of its going on spiritually within me. The prison in which I fancy myself shut up is the world ; the chain by which I am held is the body ; the soul enlightened is she who, knowing well the grievousness of being detained and kept back by any hindrance from reaching her end, suffers thereby great pain, inasmuch as she is very tender. God, by His grace, bestows upon her a dignity which makes her like God, and not only like God, but even one with Him through participating in His goodness ; and as it is impossible that God …Ibindi

Dziś rano, na terenie Opactwa Sióstr Benedyktynek w Jarosławiu doszło do ataku nożownika (31-letniego obywatela Ukrainy) na grupę osób, które prawdopodobnie zgromadziły się na poranne nabożeństwo. W wyniku napaści zginął kapłan - ks. Stanisław, rektor ośrodka rekolekcyjnego. Dwóch kolejnych duchownych (w tym ks. Marek) jest w bardzo poważnym stanie. W ataku ranione zostały również inne osoby, w tym jedna kobieta. Do morderstwa doszło po godzinie 9:00. Natomiast o 10:00 miała rozpocząć się Msza Święta. Sprawca został ujęty. Świadkami była m.in. młodzież, która chwilę wcześniej zwiedzała Opactwo, które jest otwarte. Pozostaje nam podjąć pilny szturm modlitewny, zwłaszcza za tych, którzy teraz walczą o życie..

Hosts from tabernacle scattered across a town square. On September 19, unknown perpetrators entered the Sacred Heart of Mary parish church in Guitiriz, Lugo, Spain, forced open the tabernacle and stole the silver ciborium containing hosts. They were later found scattered outside in the town square. The Diocese of Mondoñedo-Ferrol described the incident as a grave profanation of the Eucharist. The parish filed a complaint and the Guardia Civil opened an investigation. Investigators are reportedly reviewing security cameras from nearby businesses. Bishop Fernando García Cadiñanos will celebrate a Eucharist of reparation at the church on 29 September.
El salto cualitativo de la cristofobia: Profanan una iglesia y esparcen las hostias consagradas por la plaza del pueblo ADELANTE ESPAÑA Unos desconocidos profanaron el pasado sábado a mediodía la iglesia parroquial del Sagrado Corazón de María de Guitiriz, en Lugo, después de acceder al templo y forzar el sagrario para extraer el copón que se encontraba en su interior. La frialdad y la impunidad con la que los criminales actúan a plena luz del día demuestran un desprecio absoluto hacia los sentimientos religiosos más íntimos de nuestro pueblo. Un asalto a un recinto sagrado, perpetrado con el único propósito de profanar el cuerpo de Cristo y de herir el corazón de la cristiandad que dejará una marca imborrable de indignación en nuestras almas.
A short video here as well. Activists in Poland protested support for Ukraine and Kyiv's glorification of UPA figures. Protesters held placards and marched to a song with a strident chorus about Stepan Bandera, Adolf Hitler's prostitute. Footage from the protest is being actively discussed on social media as an indicator of growing discontent over historical memory issues between Warsaw and Kyiv. Поляки идут ПРОТИВ Киева! Скандал с песней про Бандеру There are many in Poland as I have said before, who is totally against the war on Russia. They are the smart ones knowing full well the true story of why Russia started the Special Operations in Ukraine.
Emmanuel Macron’s decision not to attend the papal Eucharists during Leo XIV’s visit to France is in keeping with France’s state religion of laicism. Jacques Chirac did not attend John Paul II’s celebrations in 1997, nor did Nicolas Sarkozy attend Benedict XVI’s in 2008. The only recent exception was Macron’s presence at Pope Francis’s Eucharist in Marseille in 2023, but the circumstances were different: attending the Mass was effectively the only opportunity for the French president to formally welcome the Pope.
Nessuno scandalo per la mancata presenza di Macron alle messe papali in Francia: è la prassi. Né Chirac nel '97 né Sarkozy nel 2008 parteciparono alle celebrazioni presiedute da Giovanni Paolo II e Benedetto XVI. Unica eccezione: Macron con Francesco a Marsiglia (ma era l'unica possibilità di accogliere con tutti gli onori il Papa)
They will all lose in the end. So they are all wasting their time. Let them have fun now. But they will all pay later. Including Trump and his sick administration. It will be fun watching as I have been enjoying watching Iran humiliate Trump from day one. He can use nukes on them as he plans. Probably soon after the elections. But he better know now. He is playing with fire. Not just physical fire but Heavenly fire! So let the fun continue for them. For now.
"Father Mumford, of the Company of Jesus, in his "Treatise on Charity towards the Departed," bases the long duration of Purgatory on a calculation of probability, which we shall give in substance. He goes out on the principle that, according to the words of the Holy Ghost, The just man falls seven times a day} that is to say, that even those who apply themselves most perfectly to the service of God, notwithstanding their good-will, commit a great number of faults in the infinitely pure eyes of God."
‘Opinions of the Doctors…’ – ‘Purgatory’ by Rev. Shouppe; 1929; Chapter XXII; p. 68-69, part II Chapter XXII ~ Duration of Purgatory — Opinions of the Doctors — Bellarmine — Calculations of Father Mumford. Faith does not teach us the precise duration of the pains of Purgatory. We know in general that they are measured by Divine Justice, and that for each one they are proportioned to the number and gravity of the faults which he has not yet expiated. God may, however, without prejudice to His Justice, abridge these sufferings by augmenting their intensity ; the Church Militant also may obtain their remission by the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and other suffrages offered for the departed. According to the common opinion of the doctors, the expiatory pains are of long duration. "There is no doubt," says Bellarmine, " that the pains of Purgatory are not limited to ten or twenty years, and that they last in some cases entire centuries. But allowing it to be true that their duration did not …Ibindi
“I want to bring everybody to Christ — especially… Jews.” 'Conservative' Bishop Robert Barron of Winona-Rochester discussed the salvation of non-Christians in an interview with EWTN’s Raymond Arroyo following the release of a new Vatican document on interreligious dialogue. Barron said the covenant with Israel “is fulfilled in Christ,” rejecting the idea of two parallel paths of salvation. “I want to bring everybody to Christ,” Barron said, adding, “especially… Jews.” The Church’s purpose is “always and everywhere to everybody” to proclaim Jesus Christ as Savior, he said. Asked how much doctrinal weight Catholics should give the Vatican II document Nostra Aetate, Barron replied that “there are elements in it that really belong to the doctrine of the Church,” including human dignity and Christianity’s grounding in the revelation given to Israel.
Bishop Robert Barron on Nostra Aetate: “I want to bring everybody to Christ” — including Jews — while saying only “elements” of the declaration “really belong to the doctrine of the Church.”
