Reject Darkness: Embrace Jesus in Advent Preparation Advent is a time of preparation for the coming of Christ, both his birth 2000 years ago and his second coming. The world has become too focused on secular Christmas celebrations, losing sight of its true meaning. We must prioritize our relationship with Jesus, putting aside darkness and embracing His light, to be part of the solution to the world’s problems. Fr. Altier’s Daily Homilies Fr.

Bergoglio gave a large bone of Saint Nicholas to Russian Orthodox. It is said many miracles took place when it was exposed to be venerated by the people. More for the children.

Cardinal Pietro Parolin is echoing “the Nigerian government’s narrative” amid a surge in violence against Christians in Nigeria, Emeka Umeagbalasi, Board Chair of the human-rights association Intersociety, told CruxNow.com on November 27. In October, Cardinal Parolin had downplayed the role of Islam by asserting that Muslims are also being killed and that the conflict is social rather than religious. Umeagbalasi responded: “There is strong suspicion that the Vatican Secretary of State was not speaking independently but was influenced by external factors, likely from the Nigerian government,” he said, adding: “His language mirrors the narrative promoted by the Nigerian authorities. This is particularly evident when both the Vatican Secretary of State and Father Kukah of the Sokoto Diocese downplayed the Church’s own report on religious persecution in Nigeria.”
Mon Dec 1, 2025 - 5:27 pm EST (LifeSiteNews) — The board chair of a Nigerian human rights organization, during an interview last week with Crux, slammed Vatican Secretary of State Cardinal Pietro Parolin for downplaying the role of Islam in the brutal genocide against the country’s Christians and said that he is encouraging further acts of Islamic terrorism against the faithful. During the interview, which was published on November 27, Emeka Umeagbalasi, the board chair of the International Society for Civil Liberties and the Rule of Law (Intersociety) emphasized that Parolin’s comments diminishing the role of Islam in the genocide of Nigerian Christians provides diplomatic cover for Islamic terrorists, weakens the Church’s moral standing, and ultimately emboldens Islamic terrorists to continue committing genocide. Parolin came under fire in October for downplaying the influence that Islam has played in the persecution, framing the violence against Nigerian Christians as a “social …
In mid-November, the group 'RED LGBT Córdoba' held a homosexual Eucharistic in Córdoba, Argentina, and published a video of the event on social media. The images show a church with rainbow-themed elements, a presider wearing a rainbow stole, and homosexuals grabbing Communion. The organizers incorporated symbolic items previously used in the local homosexual parade, including an embroidered tablecloth and a rainbow coloured heart. One poster depicts a cartoon-style Christ embracing a homosexual, and another displays the slogan “Todos, Todos, Todos”.
@Boanerges Boanerges Lest we forget: Neither of them would have been possible if Montini, Wojtyla and Ratzinger had not set the table for them. They and many others were in the episcopal pipeline (Prevost had been warming up in the Modernism-laced Augustinian bullpen as Prior General for 12 years) that those previously elected Popes created. Besides their problematic positions taken at Vatican II, none of them governed; none of them disciplined so there was a complete breakdown in Church order and the descent into the chaos that now surrounds us.
Knoxville Bishop Mark Beckman, USA, has "explained" his restriction of the Mass in the Roman Rite. In a November 25 letter (below), he acknowledges receiving "numerous communications and even petitions from so many" faithful asking for the Mass. Key point: The Mass will be abolished in parish churches and will continue only once a month at the chapel of a retreat center in Benton. Monsignor Beckman reports that he received communication from the Dicastery for Divine Worship instructing him to “personally revisit the direction set by Pope Francis in Traditionis Custodes in 2021.” During the summer, Monsignor Beckman returned to his reflections on the Dicastery’s communication: “In conversation only days ago with our nuncio, Cardinal Christophe Pierre, he affirmed that the Motu Proprio remains the normative guide.” According to Bishop Beckman, it became clear “that the desire of the Holy Father was that we move in the direction of re-establishing" the Novus Ordo. He adds: “Current …More
There is no denial from Archbishop Salvatore Rino Fisichella. He agrees with. LG 8, 14, 16 etc refer to hypothetical cases only So Vatican Council II does not contradict Ad Gentes 7 which says all need faith and baptism for salvation. Neither does it contradict the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus and the Athanasius Creed. The Council is traditional and ecclesiocentric.- Lionel Andrades
Sat Nov 29, 2025 - 3:18 pm EST (LifeSiteNews) — At least 10 children have died because of the COVID shots, according to a recently publicized email from Trump Food and Drug Administration (FDA) officials. “At least 10 children have died after and because of receiving COVID-19 vaccination,” FDA Chief Medical Officer Vinay Prasad wrote on Friday in an email to staff, obtained by The Daily Caller. “This is a profound revelation. For the first time, the US FDA will acknowledge that COVID-19 vaccines have killed American children,” Prasad said in the memo. The finding corroborates that of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), which recently linked at least 25 pediatric deaths to the COVID shot, via information from the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS). Both counts likely significantly underestimate the real number of pediatric deaths from the shots, considering that studies have found vaccine injuries have been seriously underreported to VAERS. In his Friday …
Nobody really knows how many children and adults have killed and injured. Those who pushed the dangerous experimental shot have not been held accountable and no serious investigation has taken place. Those who committed this crime against humanity will get away with it. And many have profited highly by investing in the live experiment. Moderna for example was a nothing stock until it started making the jab. People got sick and died while others made large sums of money.

Prevost, James Martin and Tucho's obstinacy in their rebellion against the Holy Trinity and against the Laws of God and the Church are further proof that Bergoglio died in final impenitence, dragging them with him into the same abyss of perdition.
Leo XIV received an extraordinary reception - turn on the sound - at the Shrine of Our Lady of Lebanon in Harissa today. Bishops, priests, consecrated persons, and pastoral workers gathered to welcome his arrival. Then, crowds erupted in cheers as Leo XIV approached the sanctuary, marking one of the most energetic greetings of his visit so far.
Pope Leo XIV has been given an INSANE welcome at the Shrine of Our Lady of Lebanon Turn up the volume, this is great!
They arrived expecting a crime—and stayed to cook dinner instead. The call came in like countless others: an elderly woman in distress. Officers from Italy's Polizia di Stato responded immediately, prepared for whatever emergency awaited. But when they knocked on her door, they didn't find danger. They found loneliness. An older woman, living alone, who hadn't eaten in days. Not because she didn't have food—but because the weight of isolation had become heavier than hunger itself. Her cupboards held pasta and ingredients, but her spirit was empty. The officers could have filed a report and left. Could have called social services and moved on to the next call. That would have been procedure. Instead, they did something different. They stepped into her kitchen, asked what she liked to eat, and started cooking. They boiled water for pasta, prepared a simple sauce, and set her table with care. Then they sat with her while she ate—not rushing, not checking their watches. Just present. Just …More
At the Closing Mass in Lebanon, Pope Leo issued a powerful and heartfelt appeal for peace. “Let us look to Him — to Christ — with hope and courage.” Turning to international leaders, he urged them to “listen to the cry of your peoples, who are calling for peace.”
