Saint of the Day: October 30th - Saint Marcellus the Centurion butler'slivesofthesaints Saint Marcellus, mentioned today in the Roman Martyrology, was a centurion, or captain over a hundred, in one of Trajan’s legions. The bravery he had manifested in many battles had made him a great favorite with his General; but he was still more beloved by the Almighty on account of the edifying and Christian life which he led, though surrounded by wicked people. He did not, for a long time, make it known that he was a Christian; but when the imperial army in Gallaecia, a province of Spain, was celebrating the birth-day of the emperor Dioclesian with great festivities, and offering the usual sacrifices to the gods, Marcellus confessed he was a Christian and could not take part in their worship. This frank confession caused him to be immediately seized and brought before Agricolaus, commander of the imperial body-guard. When asked whether he was in truth a Christian, Marcellus replied fearlessly: “…More
The cynical Prevost, blasphemous and heretical, twists the passage of Jesus with the Samaritan woman to justify the violation of the First Commandment through the diabolical Masonic heresy of religious indifferentism.
OCTOBER 30 SAINT ALPHONSUS RODRIGUEZ breski1 (also known as Alonso) Born in Segovia, Spain, July 25, 1533; died at Palma de Majorca in 1617; beatified 1825; canonized 1888; feast formerly on October 31. “The difference between adversity suffered for God and prosperity is greater than that between gold and a lump of lead.” – Saint Alphonsus. Brother Alphonsus proves Mother Teresa’s axiom that small things done with great love is the call of the Christian. Every day Alphonsus Rodriguez prayed to more than 20 confessors, martyrs, and Church Fathers. He had a great veneration for Saint Ursula, and though modern scholarship has done much to revise and alter the story of her martyrdom, the fact remains that a liturgy might be clumsy and inaccurate and yet represent a far more fertile and living expression of religious life than one which has been cleaned and scoured to the point of rendering it sterile. Surely the candor and devotion of Saint Alphonsus is of greater value than the scientific …More

OCTOBER 30 2025 THE GOSPEL breski1 Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Luke 13,31-35. Some Pharisees came to Jesus and said, "Go away, leave this area because Herod wants to kill you." He replied, "Go and tell that fox, 'Behold, I cast out demons and I perform healings today and tomorrow, and on the third day I accomplish my purpose. Yet I must continue on my way today, tomorrow, and the following day, for it is impossible that a prophet should die outside of Jerusalem.' Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you, how many times I yearned to gather your children together as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, but you were unwilling! Behold, your house will be abandoned. (But) I tell you, you will not see me until (the time comes when) you say, 'Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.'"
Letter to the Romans 8,31b-39. Brothers and sisters: If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare his own Son but handed him over for us all, how will he not also give us everything else along with him? Who will bring a charge against God's chosen ones? It is God who acquits us. Who will condemn? It is Christ (Jesus) who died, rather, was raised, who also is at the right hand of God, who indeed intercedes for us. What will separate us from the love of Christ? Will anguish, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or the sword? As it is written: "For your sake we are being slain all the day; we are looked upon as sheep to be slaughtered." No, in all these things we conquer overwhelmingly through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor present things, nor future things, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ …More
"For the true pattern of the soul is God, with whom it must be imprinted, like wax with a seal, and carry the mark of his impress. But this can never be complete until the intellect is perfectly illuminated, according to its capacity, with the knowledge of God, who is perfect truth, until the will is perfectly focused on the love of the perfect good, and until the memory is fully absorbed in turning to and enjoying eternal happiness, and in gladly and contentedly resting in it."
[St. Albert the Great – Albertus Magnus – XIII Century AD; Duchy of Bavaria/Cologne, Holy Roman Empire – Doctor of the Church] “Chapter 3 - What the perfection of man consists of in this life Now the more the mind is concerned about thinking and dealing with what is merely lower and human, the more it is separated from the experience in the intimacy of devotion of what is higher and heavenly, while the more fervently the memory, desire and intellect is withdrawn from what is below to what is above, the more perfect will be our prayer, and the purer our contemplation, since the two directions of our interest cannot both be perfect at the same time, being as different as light and darkness. He who cleaves to God is indeed translated into the light, while he who clings to the world is in the dark. So the supreme perfection of man in this life is to be so united to God that all his soul with all its faculties and powers are so gathered into the Lord God that he becomes one spirit with him …More
Offering to the deity Kohomba in the Vatican: Yesterday's celebration of the 60th anniversary of Nostra Aetate featured various rituals, performances and testimonies. The opening featured a Kandyan Dance, also known as the Uda Rata Natum. This ritual from Sri Lanka is dedicated to the pagan deity Kohomba, and is intended to invoke "protection" and "healing". According to legend, the ritual was introduced by pagan deities or celestial beings. The Vatican’s speaker announced: 'Its origins date back to Buddhist rituals, in which dance was offered as an act of devotion to bring blessings, harmony and peace.'
The Vatican hosted on October 28 an event to mark 60years of Vatican II's 'Nostra Aetate.' «Le origini [della Kandyan Dance] risalgono ai rituali legati al buddhismo, dove la danza veniva offerta come atto di devozione per portare benedizione, armonia e pace.» → “The origins [of the Kandyan Dance] go back to rituals tied to Buddhism, where the dance was offered as an act of devotion to bring blessing, harmony, and peace.”
How does this cultural ritual "enrich" Christianioty? Answer: it doesn't it only desecrates. Don't be fooled by smooth talking Prevost. A wolf in sheep's clothing.
They vow to false gods, they betray our Lord by promoting the "truths" of other religions, proclaim beautiful lies and then ask us be "catholic" by being obedient to "pope" who doesn’t believe Catholicism has the whole Truth. Apostate they have become, heretics due to their friendship to the world.

On grokipedia.com is GROKIPEDIA like a counterweight to WIKIPEDIA! A new right-wing and conservative encyclopedia, GROKIPEDIA, has been created as a counterbalance to the extremely liberal and ultra-leftist WIKIPEDIA. Elon Musk founded the online encyclopedia GROKIPEDIA as a counterpart and competitor to Wikipedia, which is controlled by extremely liberal and ultra-left neo-Marxist activists. The content of the new online encyclopedia GROKIPEDIA is generated by artificial intelligence from Elon Musk's company xAI through its generative AI assistant Grok. GROKIPEDIA is far from perfect and has many shortcomings, especially when it comes to its understanding, perception, and description of non-American political entities, realities, and events, where, unfortunately—and somewhat paradoxically—it also often uncritically adopts the false assessments and ideological narratives of the neo-Marxist far left. However, unlike WIKIPEDIA, this is not due to an inherent political or ideological bias …More
Will You Enter the Narrow Gate to Heaven? The gospel reading emphasizes the importance of striving to enter through the narrow gate to heaven, highlighting the higher accountability of those who have been given the fullness of truth. While acknowledging human weakness and the inevitability of sin, the focus should be on living a life centered on God, striving to serve Him, and relying on His grace for salvation. By doing so, one can achieve the most wonderful thing: eternal life in heaven. Fr. Altier’s Daily Homilies Fr.
