The testimony of Catalina on the Holy Mass In a marvelous catechesis, the Lord and the Virgin Mary have been instructing us first on how to pray the Rosary, that being to pray it with our hearts, and meditate and enjoy the moments when we encounter God and our Blessed Mother. They have also instructed us on the way to make a good confession and, in this document, a teaching on what happens during the Holy Mass and how to live it with our hearts. This is the testimony that I must and want to give to the whole world, for the greater Glory of God and for the salvation of all of those who want to open their hearts to the Lord. It is also given so that many souls consecrated to God will rekindle the fire of their love for Christ, some of whom are the owners of the hands that have the power to bring Him to our world so that He can become our nourishment. It is also given for others so that they break lose of the “routine practice” of receiving Him, and relive the amazement of their daily …More
The Holy Mass Explained to Catalina by Jesus and Mary français Catalina Rivas of Cochabamba, Bolivia, who now dwells in Mérida, Yucatán, México. She is said to receive Messages from Jesus, Mary, and the angels. She has the approval of her Bishop, René Fernández Apaza, who has given his imprimatur to her Messages. The following text is the reproduction of booklet, “The Holy Mass,” in which Our Lord and Our Lady explain to Catalina what is really going on during the Mass in the spiritual realm, and how we should be more concentrated on the great mysteries that are taking place. Bo. Daniel Gagnon, OMI, of the Commission for the Doctrine of the Faith of the Archdiocese of Mexico, wrote about this book: “I do not find anything against the faith or the customs of the Church. It is not my function to confirm its supernatural character; nevertheless, I recommend it for its spiritual inspiration.” The testimony of Catalina on the Holy Mass In a marvelous catechesis, the Lord and the Virgin …

Young people have the right to more traditional forms of liturgical experience, said Bishop Joel Portela Amado, 71, of Petrópolis, at a press conference of the Brazil Bishops in Aparecida, according to AciDigital.com. A journalist asked about a possible “return” of the Mass in the Roman rite and spoke about “young people who kneel to receive Communion” and “wear veils”. Bishop Joel replied it is important to consider broader trends, citing 2022 census data showing the highest number of people without religion is among those aged 19 to 39. “It’s not that they don’t believe in God. They are ‘unchurched’ - they believe in God, but lack a concrete path within the Church,” he said. Bishop Joel suggested this can lead young people to seek religious reference points, sometimes in past forms they did not grow up with. For him, such “diversity” is legitimate: “Do they have the right to be like this? Yes, because Catholicism is plural by nature, especially in a deeply plural world,” he said. …More
"They are ‘unchurched’ - they believe in God, but lack a concrete path within the Church,” he said. Bishop Joel suggested this can lead young people to seek religious reference points, sometimes in past forms they did not grow up with." No, actually, it's because they finally find the transcendent, the supernatural, the Divine, "the true, the good and the beautiful" in the Traditional Latin Mass, vs. the pure, horizontal humanism of the Novus Ordo. Grace operating in young, idealistic, fresh souls who want something more than what this world offers.

"My friends pray for bread, because they seek and learn the wisdom of God where my love is. But others, however, pray for straw, that is, worldly wisdom. For just as straw is useless for man to eat but, is instead, the food of irrational animals, so too there is neither use for the worldly wisdom that they seek nor nourishment for the soul, but only a small name and useless work. For when a man dies, all his wisdom is eradicated into nothing and he can no longer be seen by those who used to praise him."
[Saint Bridget of Sweden/ Heliga Birgitta; XIV Century AD: aged 69-70; Uppland, Sweden/Rome, Papal States; Widow, Mystic; Spiritual Writer; Founder; Patroness of Europe] Our Lord’s words of admonishment to the bride about true and false wisdom, and about how good angels aid the wise who are good while devils aid the wise who are evil. Chapter 33 “My friends are like scholars who have three things: First, a reasonable understanding above what is natural to the brain. Second, wisdom without human aid, for I myself teach them inwardly. Third, they are full of the sweetness and divine love with which they defeat the devil. But nowadays people study in a different way. First, they want to be wise out of vainglory in order to be called good clerks and masterly scholars. Second, they want to be wise in order to own and win riches. Third, they want to be wise in order to win honors and privileges. That is why I leave them when they go to their schools and enter there, since they study because …More
Pope Leo was captivated by this new statue of St. Augustine at the Catholic University of Central Africa, where St. Augustine stands in the shape of Africa, holding a book with the words in Latin written “Tolle lege,” the words he heard in the midst of his conversion.
Prevost refused to defend Catholic moral doctrine against the advocate of polygamy, the pagan apostate Fon Fru Asaah Angwafor IV. Prevost said nothing against this frontal assault on faith, but he did use his speech to launch a political weapon: “ Jesus told us: Blessed are the peacemakers! But woe to those who manipulate religion and the very name of God for their own military, economic or political gain, dragging that which is sacred into darkness and filth.”
On April 16, during the visit of Pope Leo XIV to Bamenda, Cameroon, Fon Fru Asaah Angwafor IV, the tribal leader of the Mankon community, spoke about polygamy. He made the remarks during an interreligious peace meeting in the cathedral. He is the hereditary "king" of the Mankon people and rules over culture and spiritual tradition. He presides over pagan rites, such as important funerals and ancestral ceremonies. During these events, he wears ceremonial attire alongside elders. He also identifies as 'Catholic'. In his speech at the cathedral, the tribal leader stated that 'some cultural practices continue to pose challenges' and cited polygamy as an example. He expressed gratitude that, within the framework of the 2023 and 2024 Synod, African bishops had been tasked with conducting a study on polygamy and its place in the life of the Church. The tribal chief went on to say that adulterers in polygamous relationships should be able to fully integrate into the Church without being 'judged …More

Papst-Reden keine Trump-Schelte Auf dem Flug von Kamerun nach Angola am Samstag äußerte sich der Papst konkret dazu und stellte klar, dass seine Reden nicht als spezielle Botschaft an US-Präsident Donald Trump zu deuten seien. Es sei viel in seine Ausführungen "hineininterpretiert" worden. Doch seien seine Ansprachen für Afrika bereits vorbereitet gewesen, "bevor sich der Präsident überhaupt jemals zu mir und meiner Friedensbotschaft geäußert hatte", erklärte das Kirchenoberhaupt. Noch vergangene Woche hatte Vance den Papst öffentlich kritisiert und dessen Friedensbotschaft seine Interpretation der Lehre vom "gerechten Krieg" entgegengestellt. Der Papst solle in diesen theologischen Fragen "vorsichtig" sein, so der US-Vize auf einer Veranstaltung. Nun schlug Vance einen versöhnlicheren Ton an, und kritisierte die mediale Berichterstattung. "Während das Narrativ der Medien ständig Konflikte hoch schreibt – und ja, echte Meinungsverschiedenheiten haben stattgefunden und werden stattfinden …More
The Warmongers Have Their Greek History All Wrong nytimes.com/2026/04/19/opinion/trump-war-thucydid… Dr. Patrick directs the Global Order and Institutions Program at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. Members of the Trump administration have been channeling their inner Thucydides, paraphrasing the Greek historian’s aphorisms about the pitiless realities of power in a world of self-interested nations. In January, the president called the unilateral military intervention that ended in the kidnapping of Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro an example of the “iron laws that have always determined global power.” Challenged about the U.S. operation, the White House senior policy adviser Stephen Miller mocked Jake Tapper on CNN for his naïveté about “international niceties” like the United Nations Charter. “We live in a world, in the real world, Jake, that is governed by strength, that is governed by force, that is governed by power.” The Iran war has only reinforced these instincts …More
Very interesting and took some time to go through. It seem true to me - I certainly hope it is. Along with the Muslim world converting, my other dream is that the Mormon church will do the same, and join the Roman Catholic Church.

Deuxième dimanche après Pâques dit « Du bon Pasteur » – « Je suis le Bon-Pasteur : je connais mes brebis et mes brebis me connaissent. » Ce Dimanche est désigné sous l’appellation populaire de Dimanche du bon Pasteur, parce qu’on y lit à la Messe le passage de l’Évangile de saint Jean où notre Seigneur se donne à lui-même ce titre. Un lien mystérieux unit ce texte évangélique au temps où nous sommes ; car c’est en ces jours que le Sauveur des hommes, établissant et consolidant son Église, commença par lui donner le Pasteur qui devait la gouverner jusqu’à la consommation des siècles. A LA MESSE. L’Introït respire le triomphe. Empruntant les accents de David, il célèbre la miséricorde du Seigneur qui s’est étendue à la terre entière, par la fondation de l’Église. Les cieux, qui signifient les Apôtres dans le langage mystérieux de l’Écriture, ont été affermis par le Verbe de Dieu, le jour où il leur a donné Pierre pour Pasteur et pour fondement. Dans la Collecte, la …
