Ventidue anni di Bruno Forte a Chieti-Vasto sono stati abbastanza
Dopo ventidue anni finisce l’episcopato di Bruno Forte a Chieti-Vasto. Meno sacerdoti, poche vocazioni e un clero anziano: ora arriva Mauro Gambetti.
Chieti - Ventidue anni sono quasi un quarto di secolo. In una diocesi significano molto più di quanto dica il semplice calendario: un seminarista entrato in formazione quando Bruno Forte arrivò a Chieti-Vasto ha ormai superato da tempo i quarant’anni; un bambino che allora frequentava le elementari oggi è un adulto. Un’intera generazione ecclesiale ha conosciuto un solo arcivescovo.
Forte fu nominato da san Giovanni Paolo II il 26 giugno 2004, venne ordinato vescovo l’8 settembre dal cardinale Joseph Ratzinger e prese possesso dell’arcidiocesi poche settimane dopo. Aveva 55 anni. Oggi ne ha 77. Il diritto canonico non stabilisce una durata massima dell’episcopato, ma il canone 401 invita ogni vescovo diocesano a presentare la rinuncia al compimento dei 75 anni. Forte li ha …

Never stop clapping - Leo XIV in Metz

Das wird die neue Kirche der Piusbruderschaft in Salzburg

Durante il volo papale verso la Francia, che accoglierà Papa Leone XIV a Parigi, Lourdes e Metz, al Santo Padre è stata posta una domanda molto personale: «È una persona felice?» Papa Leone ha risposto: «Felice, sì, penso di sì». Poi ha aggiunto: «Nonostante le difficoltà, però trovo nella fede. Sono contento di una scelta fatta molti anni fa, che ancora rinnovo ogni volta. Però mi dico: seguire Gesù è la cosa più felice della vita».

Leo XIV. continues Abu Dhabi Document: False religions become “expressions of God’s will”.
On September 16, three Vatican Dicasteries - Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith, Dicastery for Promoting Christian Unity, and Dicastery for Interreligious Dialogue - published the document The Path of Hope: A Note on the 60th Anniversary of Nostra Aetate. Leo XIV. approved the text on June 22.
Religions may become expressions of God's will
§58 contains perhaps the document’s most troubling claim: The “religions are called to transform the world and society so that they may become fraternal expressions of God’s will”.
Vatican II “Changed” Church’s understanding
The document admits in §1 that Vatican II’ declaration Nostra Aetate “marked a profound change in the Church’s understanding and expression of her relationship with followers of other religions”.
“Sacred” texts of the false religions
§32 claims that there is a universal criterion of discernment that can be found in the “sacred texts” …

Annual Latin Mass pilgrimage has Vatican Mass cancelled
The annual Latin Mass pilgrimage to Rome will not feature a Mass in the Vatican this year, with Bishop Athanasius Schneider instead offering Mass in St. Mary Major’s.
What was viewed last year as a change in tune regarding the traditional Mass at St. Peter’s Basilica is now viewed in a more nuanced light. Organisers for the annual Ad Petri Sedem pilgrimage to Rome have announced that once again the pilgrims will process into the Vatican and pray at St. Peter’s relics, but that they cannot have a Mass celebrated there.

Why I hate the old Latin Mass: A confession
(RNS) — Penitent: Bless me Father for I have sinned. It has been a week since my last column, I mean my last confession. Since that time, I have expressed hatred toward the old Latin Mass, aka the Traditional Latin Mass (TLM), aka the Tridentine Mass, aka …
Priest: Yes, yes, I know what you are talking about. The Mass that was celebrated in the Catholic Church before the Second Vatican Council.
Penitent: The old Latin Mass is like a zombie. When we went from Latin into English in 1964, we thought it was dead, but it keeps coming back. We thought it would fade away or people would be satisfied with going to a Latin version of the new liturgy. Not so.
Priest: Hatred is a sin. Jesus told us to love one another as he has loved us.
Penitent: I know. Actually, I don’t hate the people who go to the old Latin Mass. Many of them are nice, pious people. They find spiritual nourishment in their Mass. With better catechesis, I think they would appreciate …

Novus Ordo Confirmations in Seattle FSSP parish?

Erhöhen Abtreibungen massiv das Risiko, an Brustkrebs zu erkranken?
Einmal abgesehen von schwerwiegenden psychischen Folgen haben Frauen, die insbesondere vor der ersten Geburt abtreiben, ein 30 Prozent höheres Risiko, an Brustkrebs zu erkranken, so Joel Brind, Humanbiologe an der City University in New York.
Aufmerksam wurde er auf dieses Phänomen durch den starken Anstieg der Brustkrebsrate in Großbritannien seit 1971 (ein Anstieg um 80 Prozent). Im gleichen Zeitraum stiegen die jährlichen Abtreibungszahlen von 18.000 auf über 250.000.
Brind erklärte dies mit hohen Östradiol-Spiegeln (einem wachstumsfördernden Hormon), die bei Abtreibungen nicht wie bei einer ausgetragenen Schwangerschaft (oder auch einer Fehlgeburt) natürlich abgebaut werden.
Seine Studie wurde anfänglich sehr positiv aufgenommen, erfuhr später jedoch scharfe Kritik. Brind verweist in diesem Kontext auf die Abtreibungs- und Pharmaindustrie, sowie politische Interessensgruppen, die kein Interesse daran haben, dass …

This priest thought it was a great idea to line up children in his parish for a “viral video” inside the Church.

Leo XIV-Appointed Bishop Ends Diocese’s Only Latin Mass After 20 Years
Bishop Mark A. Eckman, 67, of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, will bring an end to the traditional Latin Mass at St. Titus Church in Aliquippa after nearly 20-years.
Bishop Eckman was appointed Auxiliary Bishop of Pittsburgh in 2021. In June 2025, Leo XIV promoted him to Bishop of Pittsburgh.
In a letter dated 7 August (see below), Monsignor Eckman announced that the final Mass to be held at St. Titus using the 1962 Missal is scheduled for 4 September.
The remaining two traditional Latin Masses in Pittsburgh are offered by the Institute Christ the King in Brighton Heights and by the Priestly Fraternity of St. Pius X in the West End.
Bishop Eckman said his predecessor, Bishop David A. Zubik, received Vatican permission in 2022 to continue the Mass at St. Titus. The initial two-year authorization was extended in September 2024 for another two years.
The Bishop didn't seek another extension, “The permission to celebrate …
