Cardinal Robert McElroy of Washington now says he removed Msgr. Stephen Rossetti as a Washington exorcist not because of his demons-and-UFOs comments, but because exorcism should be a private ministry. In a June 29 interview released July 8, McElroy said his objection was that exorcists should stick to quietly helping people in serious cases, not operate publicly: "It wasn't touching on the question of UFOs... my major objection is that I think the traditional role of an exorcist is a very private one." That explanation contradicts the archdiocese's own June statement announcing the removal. It said Rossetti's UFO comments "gravely undermine the Church's very precise teaching on the devil, demons and exorcism." Monsignor Rossetti had said in a video that he thinks many UFO sightings are demons capable of feats beyond human ability, such as impossible high-speed maneuvers. #newsYvdpsotlwj
First Canadian Town Grants Trees a 'Right to Life': On 9 June, the town of Terrasse-Vaudreuil in Quebec, home to around 2,000 people, became the first place in Canada to adopt a resolution enshrining the 'rights' of trees. The resolution includes rights such as the right to life, natural growth, integrity and regeneration. Mayor Michel Bourdeau said the initiative was inspired by filmmaker André Desrochers and his film 'Des arbres et des arts'. Meanwhile, around 30,000 human beings are aborted in Quebec each year, and more than 100,000 in Canada as a whole. Since its legalisation in 2016, more than 100,000 Canadians have died through euthanasia (MAID).

Archbishop Georg Gänswein hopes the restrictions on the Mass in the Roman rite will be lifted, he told Il Giornale on July 7. Looking back to Benedict XVI's 2007 Motu Proprio Summorum Pontificum, Monsignor Gänswein said the Pope wanted to restore “full rights to a rite that had never been abolished”: “His goal was to give it its rightful place again within the Church and to restore peace in the Church's liturgical life.” According to Archbishop Gänswein, Summorum Pontificum was not conceived as a step toward reconciliation with the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X. Rather, “it was directed toward the Church itself.” Benedict XVI was pleased with the results of this reform. “It was beginning to bear fruit. It worked especially well among young people, and this is evident above all in the steadily growing numbers participating each year in the Paris-to-Chartres pilgrimage.” Monsignor Gänswein added that these young people are not opposed to the Second Vatican Council: “Anyone who …Hafa
Benedict XVI's former secretary Georg Ganswein has spoken out on the restrictions imposed on the Latin Mass under Traditionis Custodes, saying that the time has come 'to lift those restrictions and move beyond the setback represented by that text'
Your Heart Determines Your Eternal Family The true measure of being a child of God is not just baptism, but striving to do God’s will, as exemplified by the woman in the first reading. This striving involves living out our baptismal vows, seeking God’s will, and serving others with charity. God desires a genuine relationship with us, and this is achieved through our efforts to align our lives with His will, empowered by the Holy Spirit. Fr.

In the historic centre of Turin, Italy, stands the Church of San Francesco d'Assisi. In the sixteenth century, the church temporarily safeguarded the Shroud of Turin, after its transfer from Chambéry. Is is an active church in the Archdiocese of Turin, with regular Masses and the Blessed Sacrament reserved. Since spring 2020, however, the church has also served as the regular place of worship for the Evangelical Lutheran Community of Turin. The Lutheran congregation is part of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Italy (CELI) and has administrative offices elsewhere in the city, but no church of its own. This arrangement is permanent. During the installation of Pastor Tobias Brendel in September 2022, which took place in the Catholic church, a Catholic deacon symbolically presented the new pastor with a set of keys. The Lutheran community said that this recognised the relationship of trust that had developed since the shared use of the church began in 2020. This appears to have been …Hafa
At a moment when Rome has demonstrated uncompromising resolve in disciplining the SSPX, it simultaneously promotes a bishop publicly associated with some of the most contentious elements of the German reform movement. Appointments are one of the principal ways a Pope governs. They are never merely administrative. They reveal priorities.
Today, Leo XIV appointed Monsignor Christian Würtz, 55, as Bishop of Eichstätt, Germany. Leo XIV again chose a canon lawyer. A native of Karlsruhe, he originally studied law at Heidelberg University before entering the seminary. He holds two doctorates - one in both civil and canon law (doctor iuris utriusque) and another in theology. He also served as rector of Freiburg's seminary. At 48, he was the youngest bishop in Germany when he was ordained auxiliary bishop of Freiburg in 2019. At 55, he now becomes the youngest diocesan bishop in Germany. Part of the "Rainbow" Faction Among Bishops In September 2022, Monsignor Würtz voted "yes" at the German Synodal Way for the controversial document on the Doctrinal Reassessment of Homosexuality. The document argued that homosexual orientation is "not self-chosen and ... cannot be changed," and that homosexual Catholics should be accepted without reservation. He also voted yes for the document "Dealing with Gender Diversity." It asked bishops …Hafa

... while leaving untouched those who proclaim a worldview that is totally incompatible with the Sacred Tradition of the Church. At Fatima, the Blessed Mother warned Sister Lucia that the final battle would be over marriage and the family. When we look at our world today, we can see how true that warning was: Marriage, the family, the innocence of children, and even the meaning of man and woman are all under assault. But this battle did not begin in our own time. To understand it, we have to go back to Sacred Scripture, to Sodom and Gomorrah. For many years there has been an effort to redefine the story of Sodom and Gomorrah. Some have claimed that the cities were destroyed merely because they lacked hospitality. Certainly, hospitality was a sacred duty in the ancient world, but that explanation simply does not do justice to what the Scriptures actually tell us. When the angels came to Sodom and entered Lot’s home, the men of the city surrounded the house and demanded that the visitors …Hafa

On June 26, the Archdiocese of Chicago, ruined by Cardinal Blase Cupich, dedicated a memorial for suiciders. The memorial, titled "At Peace," is located at Queen of Heaven Cemetery in Hillside, Illinois. According to the Archdiocese, it is the first memorial established by a Catholic archdiocese in the United States specifically for suiciders. The Vicar General, auxiliary Bishop Lawrence Sullivan, said in a June 24 statement that the memorial was created to "honor the lives lost to suicide". And: "Historically, the Catholic Church denied Catholic funerals in churches and burials in consecrated ground for individuals who died by suicide. The Church has undergone a significant transformation in its understanding of suicide and mental illness and now recognizes that many who die by suicide suffer from mental illness and unbearable pain. The Church now embraces these individuals and affirms that they are with God, not condemned." #newsBdkpdqzsck

It gets weird: Father Davide Cito, professor of canon law at the Pontifical University of the Holy Cross in Rome: "although the Orthodox churches are not in full communion with Rome, they are not currently in a state of formal schism comparable to that of the Society of St. Pius X."

John 19:22; What is Written is Written. a) Revelation 13:11-12; Then I saw another beast coming up out of the earth. It had two horns like a lamb’s, but it spoke like a serpent. It exercises all the authority of the first beast on its behalf, causing the earth and its inhabitants to worship the first beast. b) 2 Thessalonians 2:3–4; Let no one deceive you in any way. First, the apostasy must come, and the lawless one must be revealed—the Son of Perdition, the Adversary who exalts himself above everything that is called God or is worshiped, to the point of sitting in God’s sanctuary and proclaiming that he himself is God. c) Revelation 11:1-4; Then I was given a measuring rod like a staff, and I was told, “Get up and measure the sanctuary of God and the altar, and those who worship there.

***Ex-Zelensky adviser Arestovich DEMOLISHED Western PROPAGANDA on Putin Putin is too kind and good a person compared to how they portray him. --- Ignorance, the root and stem of all evil …
Don't forget how Lukashanko defended him by not being bloodthirsty. When he revealed a conversation they had. He asked Putin why don't you flatten out Kiev. Putin responded by saying, the people. Many innocent people will die. I saved the video but it's no longer available. Like many others it was taken down. #Belarus’ president: #Putin is not bloodthirsty.” #russia #ukraine #zelensky #lukashenko #usa #trump There are others but I can't find them because google either buried or deleted them. Then there is the former PM of Israel who went to Russia to personally talk with Putin and asked if he was going to kill zelensky. Without any doubt he went back to Ukraine to tell zelensky he was not going to kill him. And zelensky without any hesitation got on the radio and proclaimed. I am not afraid! I post that already on gtv. Hopefully it's still there. At the time zelensky was hiding thinking Putin was going to kill him. So this shows exactly how the word of Putin is trusted. Even by his …Hafa
I am not sure what he means by this, but that man would never play anyone or lead anyone on as the US and others have done to him. Putin has outplayed everyone. After all this administration is the one that said, we are not intermediators after all those talks. And we are on the side of Ukraine! Just as I have said they were. Two assassination attempts in months apart? More sanctions than all the Presidents combined? Giving money, weapons, ammo, and INTEL? Attacking Putin every time zelensky bombed inside of Russia and so much more. They were definitely playing this man who thought he found a friend in trump.
