Use God’s Gifts For His Glory The gospel reading emphasizes the importance of using the talents God has given us for His glory and the building of His kingdom. We should focus on our motives, ensuring we are serving God and others, rather than seeking personal gain. Regardless of past mistakes, we should strive to use our talents to the best of our ability, seeking God’s guidance on how to serve Him most effectively. Fr.

It's been said by many that Trump has something big coming. They said, it's not good either. When I read this I felt I knew why he was doing it. When he said he was going to nuke Russia he was not kidding. Just like the other day he said, he was going to wipe out Iranian people. AGAIN! So why not build two more military bases close to Russia? Just crawling closer and closer to Russia. An easy target. usnews.com/…en-two-new-military-bases-in-greenlan… Distance from Greenland to Russia is 5,017 kilometers. This air travel distance is equal to 3,117 miles.

Saint Pio of Pietrelcina Feast September 23 Francesco was born in the small Italian village of Pietrelcina on May 25, 1887. His parents, Grazio Forgione and Maria Giuseppa Di Nunzio, were peasant farmers, but they recognized their son was close to God. When he was only five years old, he solemnly consecrated himself to Jesus. It is said he often spoke with Our Lord, Our Lady and his guardian angel, who defended him against attacks by the devil. He joined the Capuchin Franciscans at the age of fifteen, and took the name Pio with his religious vows. After seven years of study he was ordained to the priesthood in 1910. During the same month he was ordained, Padre Pio was praying in the chapel when Our Lord and His Blessed Mother appeared and gave him the Stigmata. However, the wounds soon faded and then disappeared. “I do want to suffer, even to die of suffering,” Padre Pio told Our Lady, “but all in secret." Soon after, he experienced the first of his spiritual ecstasies. Pio was in the …More

Alas the continuing promotion of this narrative was meant to be seamless until their final goal. Whatever that is. Just like JFK, 9/11, the Palestinian narrative, etc...
"The second reason was because, in manifesting Himself to you, He did not present to you anything He had not received from Me, the Father. These words, then, mean, the Father has manifested Himself to Me, because I am one thing with Him, and I will manifest to you, by means of Myself, Me and Him."
‘Why Christ did not say ‘I will manifest My Father…’ ~ 'The Dialogue' of Saint Catherine of Siena; 1907; A TREATISE OF DISCRETION; pp. 148-150 [Saint Catherine of Siena /Caterina di Benincasa/; XIV-XV Century AD; born: Siena, Republic of Siena/died: Rome, Papal States; aged 33; Spiritual Writer; Mystic; Virgin; Doctor of the Church] Why Christ did not say "I will manifest My Father" but " I will manifest Myself" " Thou seest now how truly My Word spoke, when He said : * He who loves Me shall he one thing with Me? Because, by following His doctrine with the affection of love, you are united with Him, and, being united with Him, you are united with Me, because We are one thing together. And so it is that I manifest Myself to you, because We are one and the same thing together. Wherefore if My Truth said, ' I will manifest Myself to you1 He said the truth, because, in manifesting Himself, He manifested Me, and, in manifesting Me, He manifested Himself. But why did He not say, ' I will …More
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 …More
The Ratzinger-Frings attack on the Holy Office (1963) On 8 November 1963, Card. Frings declared in the Conciliar aula: “The Holy Office’s manner of conducting itself in many spheres is not in step with our times, is detrimental to the Church, and is a cause of scandal for many.” He was, of course, speaking from a script known to have been previously dictated by Ratzinger.2 Peter Seewald commented that “no one had ever dared before to criticize Ottaviani’s machinery so fiercely.” 3 It is a well recorded fact in the annals of the Council that Card. Ottaviani was several times publicly humiliated by progressivist reformers, especially from Germany, in a manner that defied both Christian charity and the gentlemanly code of ethics. The Frings/Ratzinger broadside, which constituted one of the Council’s most emotionally-charged and dramatic events, was no exception.
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 …More
Church decline: Scottish bishops present plans to merge dioceses. The bishops of Scotland have presented on Monday seven options for a possible reduction in the number of dioceses. The Vatican had asked the bishops to review the diocesan structure in light of declining clergy numbers and diminishing resources. The bishops, however, say the process is “about how we can better proclaim the Gospel” and “strengthen our parishes and communities for evangelisation”. Six options envisage mergers: five would each merge two dioceses, while one would bring together three. The seventh option would retain Scotland’s current eight dioceses but provide for greater cooperation and mutual support. The eight dioceses are currently divided between the ecclesiastical provinces of Glasgow and St Andrews and Edinburgh. The proposed mergers are Argyll and the Isles with Paisley; Argyll and the Isles with Glasgow; Paisley with Galloway; Galloway with Motherwell; and St Andrews and Edinburgh with Dunkeld. A …More
