ElPais.com published on September 3 two private, handwritten letters from the late Pope Francis to Bishop Ángel Pérez Pueyo of Barbastro-Monzón, Spain, concerning his dispute with Opus Dei over the shrine Torreciudad. “Don’t give in!” Francis wrote to Pérez Pueyo on July 13, 2023. The dispute began in January 2020, when Opus Dei approached the bishop to propose changing the arrangements governing Torreciudad. Bishop Pérez Pueyo refused to sign anything. After three years of talks, on July 17, 2023, he removed the rector of Torreciudad and appointed a priest he trusted in his place. This was the first public confrontation between Opus Dei and the bishop - and came just four days after Francis wrote his letter. Talks continued until October 9, 2024, when Francis intervened in the shrine by appointing an extraordinary commissioner, Spanish Archbishop Alejandro Arellano, dean of the Tribunal of the Roman Rota. The move was understood as support for the bishop. Several days later, Francis …Ավելին
Bishop Athanasius Schneider has criticised Pope Leo XIV’s August 26 presentation of the post-conciliar liturgical reform. He argued that the Novus Ordo does not correspond to what the Fathers of the Second Vatican Council intended. Speaking to AdVaticanum.com on September 2, Schneider also argued that non-definitive teachings of Vatican II can be amended or corrected. Conciliar Formulations Can Be Corrected Bishop Schneider referred to the Council of Florence (1431 to 1449), citing two doctrinal statements that were later discussed and corrected by the Church. One concerned Holy Orders. Florence identified the handing over of the sacred instruments as the matter of priestly ordination rather than the laying on of hands, despite the latter having been practiced during the first millennium. Schneider noted that Pope Pius XII later definitively taught that the matter of ordination is the laying on of hands, thereby formally correcting Florence. Schneider also pointed to Florence’s teaching …Ավելին
Why Mary Is the Shortest Path to Jesus: Fr. Matthias & Fr. Bernard on Graces Waiting for You "Mary is never an obstacle between us and Christ—she is the quickest, easiest, and surest route to His Sacred Heart." Father Matthias Sasko and Father Bernard Salter, FI, join CatholicTV to explain the life-changing gift of Marian consecration. What does it truly mean to give your entire life to Jesus through the hands of Mary? Stepping into the living room on This Is the Day from New Bedford, Massachusetts, Father Matthias Sasko and Father Bernard Salter of the Franciscans of the Immaculate unpack the spiritual charism of St. Maximilian Kolbe. The friars address common misconceptions about Marian devotion, showing that consecration is not Mary's or John's idea, but Christ’s direct command from the Cross: "Behold your mother." They explain what happens when we entrust ourselves to Mary as her personal "property and possession"—surrendering to her maternal authority so she can form us into the …Ավելին
Bishop Felix Gmür of Basel, Switzerland, has appointed theologian Sarah Gigandet to a senior leadership position in the diocese. From 1 November, she will share the responsibilities of the vicariate general with incoming Vicar General Ruedi Heim. The Diocese of Basel announced this unusual arrangement under the headline 'Vicariate General becomes more synodal'. Gigandet, aged 40, will formally hold the title of Episcopal Delegate in the Vicariate General, while Heim will be the canonical Vicar General. According to the diocese, however, the two will divide the areas of responsibility between them and jointly assume leadership responsibilities. According to canon law, the office of vicar general, which involves exercising ordinary executive authority as the bishop’s deputy, is reserved for priests. Therefore, Gigandet cannot formally be appointed vicar general. Bishop Gmür is known for his pro-homosexual activism. He also supports the ordination of women as deacons and priests. #newsUvpbpswmke
Additional info: The new Vatican document calls the Earth Bible Project—an eco-hermeneutical approach to Scripture—“a valid proposal,” reproduces its principles of “intrinsic worth,” “interconnectedness,” “voice,” “mutual custodianship” and “resistance,” and declares that “these principles are in line with Laudato si’.”
Today, the 'International Theological Commission' published the verbose document “Caring for Our Common Home” (40,000 unreadable words). Cardinal Víctor Fernández brought the text to the consideration of Leo XIV on 28 July and authorized its publication on 21 August. Positive Reception of Teilhard de Chardin The text is often buried beneath dense and highly abstract vocabulary, much of it reflecting a cosmic and evolutionary vision of creation. The document speaks of the Holy Spirit “Christifying” creation through a “progressive growth”, so that creation “advances toward its eschatological fulfillment.” Elsewhere it describes “all matter” as tending toward transformation and fulfillment in Christ. Christ is consequently described as “the axis of the maturation of the world.” This language is strongly reminiscent of the cosmic heresy of the French Jesuit Pierre Teilhard de Chardin (1881-1955). The document admits that it received "the contribution of Fr. Teilhard de Chardin” (footnote 184). …Ավելին

Pope Leo XIV’s four-day visit to France, scheduled for September 25–28, will take place under exceptionally heavy security. Around 850 additional police officers are expected to be deployed just for the Lourdes and Metz portions of the trip. France’s elite RAID tactical unit, explosives-detection dogs, and plainclothes officers will also be involved. Authorities plan extensive drone surveillance and anti-drone measures. Preparations in Lourdes have already included authorization for police drones over the city and sanctuary. TribuneChretienne.com points out that Islamic elements ("Islamism") remain France’s principal terrorist threat. French counterterrorism prosecutor Olivier Christen said that jihadist cases accounted for 94% of new counterterrorism investigations opened by April 1, 2026.

Today, Leo XIV has appointed Bishop Ferenc Palánki, 62, as the new Metropolitan Archbishop of Kalocsa-Kecskemét, Hungary. Palánki has led the Diocese of Debrecen-Nyíregyháza since 2015. A canon lawyer, he was appointed auxiliary bishop of Eger in 2010 and ordained a bishop in 2011. 2015: Pro-Migration against Hungarian Cardinal During the migration crisis in 2015, Palánki was asked whether he sides with Cardinal Erdő and Bishop Kiss-Rigó (both took anti-migrant lines) or with the Pope's call to take migrants in. He chose Francis: "We say what the pope says: let's take in the refugees, regardless of their religion.” He invoked the Great Commission: “Go and make disciples of all nations... Now we don't have to go, because many people are coming here.” As Priest, Played Guitar at Eucharists In a 2020 interview, Palánki argued that contemporary music can belong inside the liturgy, not merely at youth meetings. He said: “I regard music in the liturgy as form. The emphasis is never on the …Ավելին

On August 24, 2024, Rev. Edgard Rimaycuna, Leo XIV’s personal secretary, shared on his Facebook profile the press release issued by the Peruvian Episcopal Conference (CEP) announcing the disqualification of canon lawyer Ricardo Coronado, reports InfoVaticana.com. At the time, the canon lawyer represented the three victims of Father Eleuterio Vásquez, known as “Lute.” Rev. Rimaycuna shared it on the same day it was published, adding one comment: “For those who want to stay informed.” Rimaycuna was a disciple of Lute, according to Santiago Roncagliolo’s book The Shepherd and the Wolves. According to InfoVaticana, Lute admitted that he sexually abused minor girls and maintained that it was not a crime because there had been no “complete sexual act.” The Lawyer Was Disqualified The CEP statement said that the bishops had “determined” that the Rev. Ricardo Coronado Arrascue “cannot receive approval to act as an ecclesiastical lawyer” and that he should be prohibited from “acting as counsel …Ավելին

If I give a weapon to someone, knowing that they're going to kill with it, I'm jointly responsible. So Britain - through Prime Minister 'Bomber' Burnham - has admitted to several murders inside Russian territory George Galloway says Russia has the right absolutely legally entitled to act and take retaliatory measures against Britain. But counting on the good graces of President Putin in not doing what he is legally entitled to do in punishing Britain. Putin didn't do anything so far to anyone. Including Poland who tried to kill an officer in Russia. He knows who is behind the killing of many children and civilians. But it's his desire for peace that prevents him from retaliating against anyone knowing it would lead to a WW. Which He does not want for anyone. The Russians are being attacked by us, not the other way round ---
Willy Wimmer, former German defense official and key player in reunification, who exposes how U.S. and NATO betrayal after the Cold War lit the fuse for today’s Ukraine conflict. Wimmer reveals how American elites planned NATO expansion and even the breakup of Russia, long before the current war, turning Europe into a battleground for U.S. global dominance. He warns: the same forces pushing for war then are pushing harder now. He calls on Europe to reclaim its sovereignty, reject escalation, and embrace peace.
