Pope Francis’ post-synodal apostolic exhortation Amoris Laetitia, published on April 8, 2016, was a “breakthrough” for the Church. This was stated by Cardinal Christoph Schönborn, 81, of Vienna, who had presented the document at the Vatican ten years ago, in an interview with Kathpress.at on March 30. In a footnote, Francis "allowed" adulterers to grab Holy Communion using the case-by-case trick. Cardinal Schönborn commented: "That Pope Francis addressed the question of whether divorced and remarried persons may receive Communion only in a small footnote deeply moved me personally." “When I take the document from my bookshelf or even just think about it, it still brings me to tears,” he added. For many people in the Church - and for him personally - the document represented a “huge sigh of relief.” The reason, he explained, is that Francis speaks “about real life.” Families in “difficult” situations should not be constrained or judged according to "rigid criteria". Instead, one …Mususu

MARCH 2026 - KILLERS OF ALEX - UPDATE REPORT NAMES THE AGENTS BEHIND ALEX PRETTIS KILLING. May Alex and Nicole rest in peace for giving their life unconditionally to be the voices of those who can't have one to defend themselves. Regardless on how sinful we may be or might have been in life, acts of love such as this one guarantees us eternal salvation, says our Lord Jesus. None of them violent, little less terrorists; degraded by a government of liars and corrupt people who keep eroding this great nation and making it look as if all their inhabitants were evil when so many great north americans are suffering and fighting the good fight becoming sacrificial lambs in the process. God bless.
On 30 March, Pope Leo XIV appointed Archbishop Paolo Rudelli as Substitute for General Affairs of the Secretariat of State, making him the Vatican’s third most senior official. Born in Gazzaniga, Italy in 1970, Monsignor Rudelli was ordained to the priesthood in 1995. He studied at the Pontifical Gregorian University and joined the Vatican diplomatic service in 2001. After serving in nunciatures in Ecuador and Poland, he worked in the Secretariat of State before being appointed Permanent Observer to the Council of Europe from 2014 to 2019. In 2019, Pope Francis personally consecrated him as a bishop and appointed him as Apostolic Nuncio. He served as Nuncio to Zimbabwe (2020–2023) and to Colombia (2023–2026). As a senior Vatican diplomat, Monsignor Rudelli is accustomed to maintaining message discipline and avoiding polarising issues. "Follow Francis' Synodal Path!" Across Zimbabwe and Colombia, Nuncio Rudelli presents a vision of the Church in the Francis era. In a 2023 address to …Mususu
"When Pope Francis proposes fraternity as the foundation of social friendship and the pursuit of the common good, we could say that he proposes fraternity as the foundation of a universal ethic," Archbishop Rudelli said.
Book of Isaiah 49,1-6. Hear me, O islands, listen, O distant peoples. The Lord called me from birth, from my mother's womb he gave me my name. He made of me a sharp-edged sword and concealed me in the shadow of his arm. He made me a polished arrow, in his quiver he hid me. You are my servant, he said to me, Israel, through whom I show my glory. Though I thought I had toiled in vain, and for nothing, uselessly, spent my strength, Yet my reward is with the LORD, my recompense is with my God. For now the LORD has spoken who formed me as his servant from the womb, That Jacob may be brought back to him and Israel gathered to him; And I am made glorious in the sight of the LORD, and my God is now my strength! It is too little, he says, for you to be my servant, to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and restore the survivors of Israel; I will make you a light to the nations, that my salvation may reach to the ends of the earth.

Stop BBC Trans Indoctrination of Children You may have noticed that the BBC is increasingly pushing LGBT ideology, especially transgenderism, into programmes watched by children. SIX YEARS WITH MILES CHRISTI. From introducing trans characters into hugely popular shows like Doctor Who to producing programmes focused on how “positive” it is to be a trans teenager, to putting Drag Queens on Strictly. There was even a segment on The Unshockable Dr Ronx, discussing how to breast bind “safely”. THREE YEARS WITH “SUPER OMNIA VERITAS”. Yes, you read that right! The BBC is encouraging young girls to bind their breasts. Not only are they trying to indoctrinate, but they are also teaching children how to self-harm. The BBC is legally required to remain impartial, yet it is promoting one side of a highly contested issue. Frankly, the BBC is outright lying to our children. Impressionable children and teenagers are being exposed to messaging that influences how they view their identity, their …Mususu

Conservative Bishop Robert Barron of Winona-Rochester, Minnesota, published a “counter-view” to the teaching that Judas has earned his place in hell on FoxNews.com on Palm Sunday. Monsignor Barron's main arguments for having hope for Judas' salvation - Judas shows repentance: "Judas, the betrayer, deeply regretted what he had done: 'I have sinned in betraying innocent blood.'" "This is not callous indifference or self-justification. This is a clear and honest admission of guilt." - The Church has never declared that Judas is in hell: "St. Pope John Paul II insisted that the Church has never made a definitive statement regarding whether any particular person is in hell." "Pope Benedict said that we should suspend judgement regarding Judas and commit him to the mercy and justice of God." - Suicide does not guarantee damnation: "We should not despair of the eternal salvation of persons who have taken their own lives.' 'By ways known to him alone, God can provide the opportunity for salutary …Mususu
On the very day that Bergoglio appointed Prevost—as well as the homosexuals Tucho and Cobo—as 'Cardinals,' he also appointed Barron. And news reports revealed that Bergoglio had appointed 21 'cardinals' to pave the way for his (apostate) legacy.
Christ said this concerning Judas ' It would have been better for him had he not been born. ' Also, Judas despaired and committed suicide. Hell is where he is.
Mar 30 Sacred art in the service of faith We post the art essay from the Magnificat's Holy Week liturgical reader. It's written by Jennifer Healy who taught art history for many years. It's titled, "Holy Week Sorrow and Hope," and offers a great analysis of the painting "The Tears of St. Peter" by Jusepe de Ribera. The denial of St. Peter is a reminder of our denials too. Something to think about this week. Wishing our readers a blessed Holy Week. This marvelous work by the young Spanish artist Jusepe de Ribera provides for rich meditation on Saint Peter and the mercy of God. In this one captured moment, in symbols and style, a full story emerges. Of course we already know the story, and we hear it again in Holy Week at the Palm Sunday and Good Friday liturgies.

Asia - Pacific Russia says no oil deliveries for countries supporting price cap Deputy Foreign Minister Andrey Rudenko names Japan among countries supporting 'provocative scheme' Russia will not supply oil to countries that support anti-market measures to maintain a price cap, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Andrey Rudenko said on Tuesday. Rudenko said in an interview with the Russian daily Izvestia that the energy market is currently volatile, with a shortage and rising cost of energy resources. Asked about the trade with countries that support anti-Russian sanctions, including Japan, he said Tokyo is bound by commitments to a price cap on Russian-origin oil, which he described as "an anti-market measure that disrupts supply chains." "As has been stated repeatedly, Russia will not supply oil to countries that support this provocative scheme," he said. On March 12, the US Treasury Department announced that, as part of changes to US sanctions policy, it had granted an exception for the …

**The Patristic and Scholastic Consensus Against the Modern Idolatry of the Marriage Bed: Marriage Is the Indissoluble Bond of Wills, Not the Operations of the Flesh** The Church Fathers and the great Scholastic theologians present a unified, sober, and supernatural vision of holy matrimony that stands in radical opposition to much contemporary Catholic teaching and pastoral rhetoric. In the tradition from **St. Augustine** through the Scholastics (including **Peter Lombard** and preeminently **St. Thomas Aquinas**), the **essence** of the sacrament of marriage resides in the **mutual consent** that forms the indissoluble bond (*vinculum*) of fidelity between husband and wife. This covenant of wills is the primal reality: it images the union of Christ and the Church, confers sacramental grace, and sanctifies the spouses independently of any carnal act. The three goods of marriage—**offspring** (*proles*), **fidelity** (*fides*), and the **sacramental bond** (*sacramentum*)—flow from …Mususu
During the January consistory, Leo XIV told Cardinal Jean-Marc Aveline of Marseille, France, of his wish to explore avenues for resolving the tensions surrounding the Roman rite, La-croix.com reports, citing anonymous sources. One bishop, who also wished to remain anonymous, said that Leo XIV is allegedly "extremely interested in the question and asked us to think something through". Another bishop, who has spoken with Leo XIV about the Roman rite, said that "for the Pope, what is done in France serves as a model" for other countries. "It is the first time I have heard so clearly that the subject must be addressed at a theological level and not just in a pastoral and emotional way," he added. Another anonymous bishop, from the southeast, said: "Behind the attraction to beauty and the sacred, there is a whole theological debate that some do not perceive: a distant God versus a God who draws near - encompassing a whole relationship with the world, freedom of conscience and interreligious …Mususu
Good, Leo. Check out what Benedict XVI did in the way of trying to solve tensions. But unless you change the other aberrations of Francis, not many will trust your intentions towards the Traditional Mass.
