Friday of the second week of Advent. Of the Nativity of Mary Our Blessed Lady. DAILY MEDITATIONS OF THE MYSTERIES OF OUR HOLY FAITH, By the P. Alonso de Andrade FROM THE COMPANY OF JESUS. PRAYER TO BEGIN By the sign of the Holy Cross, from our enemies delier us, Lord, our God. In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen. My Lord and my God: I firmly believe that you are here, that you see me, that you hear me. I adore you with deep reverence. I ask you for forgiveness of my sins and grace to make this time of prayer fruit. My Mother Immaculate, Saint Joseph, my father and lord, my guardian Angel: intercede for me. Meditation Friday of the second week of Advent. Of the Nativity of Mary Our Blessed Lady. POINT ONE. Consider how Divine Providence arranged, that the holy fathers of the Blessed Virgin be elderly and sterile, because she had to be more daughter of grace than of nature: such must be the one that God chooses with special grace for her service.

"What kind of unity do we actually want?", asked Cardinal Kurt Koch about ecumenism talking to Die Tagespost on 11 December. He explained that the Church and orthodox groups seek unity in terms of faith and sacraments. However, some Protestant groups envisage "unity" whereby each group remains as it is while recognising one another mutually. With the Orthodox, a consensus has yet to be reached, especially regarding the authority of the Pope. Cardinal Koch noted that a Pope seen merely as "primus inter pares" with no real authority "would only work in fair weather".
Kurienkardinal Kurt Koch betont, dass auf dem Weg zur christlichen Einheit noch viel zu klären ist – vor allem, welche Form von Einheit angestrebt wird. Während katholische und orthodoxe Kirchen eine Einheit in Glauben, Sakramenten und Ämtern wollen, sehen manche reformatorische Kirchen eher ein Nebeneinander bestehender Kirchen als ausreichende Einheit. Im Dialog mit der Orthodoxie sind besonders filioque und die päpstliche Unfehlbarkeit strittige Punkte, doch Koch zeigt sich zuversichtlich. Der Ukraine-Krieg erschwert die Gespräche, da russisch-orthodoxe Vertreter den Dialog teilweise verlassen haben. Die jüngste Papstreise habe im Libanon viel Hoffnung geweckt, berichtet Koch. Papst Leo XIV. habe mit seinen Ansprachen und Begegnungen den Menschen Mut für eine bessere Zukunft gemacht.

Australian woman fined $95k over addressing transvestite athletes as men: Kirralie Smith, an Australian women’s rights advocate, has been ordered by a New South Wales court to pay AUS$95,000 after referring "unlawfully" to two male transvestite players as 'male' in a series of social media posts. The decision, published in early December, also requires her to issue a public apology on her social media platforms. Smith says she will appeal the decision, arguing that it restricts her ability to speak about women’s sports and gender policy issues.

We continue posting daily Advent reflections by the Church Fathers. It's a good way to prepare to celebrate Christmas. The reflections and quotations come from the book titled, Advent and Christmas with the Church Fathersby Marco Pappalardo. Introduction Good and evil are not far removed from human experience: they are the light and darkness of everyday life. There is a human and material good that needs to be illuminated by the light of Christ to prevent it from becoming evil; there are adversities that can plunge us into the darkest of depths without the burning flame of faith. We can choose to follow the light of the star or to remain motionless, lamenting the darkness. St. Augustine, Thus it is night down here; but this night seems to have its light and its shadows. If we call it night in general, what is its light? The prosperity and happiness of this world, temporal joy, and temporal honours are the quasi-light of this night. But the adversity and bitterness of tribulations and …
Sarah Mullally, the first woman appointed "Archbishop of Canterbury" of the Church of England, has been accused of mishandling an abuse case. She is due to take office on January 28. The allegation centers on her decision to send a confidential email about abuse claims directly to the accused priest, bypassing formal disciplinary procedures. The case involves a victim known as “Survivor N,” who filed a formal complaint in 2020 and reportedly received no response. Mullally has since acknowledged that "Survivor N" was not given adequate support by the Church.
Sarah Mullally, prima donna eletta alla guida della Chiesa anglicana con la carica di arcivescovo di Canterbury in risposta agli scandali sessuali di pedofilia e di accuse d'insabbiamenti che hanno investito nel Regno Unito non pochi presuli uomini, è finita sotto accusa per aver gestito in modo improprio un caso di abusi...

More pornographic texts of pro-homosexual Cardinal Victor Manuel Fernández, 63, have emerged. ElWanderer.com published today new quotes from different books. The disgusting texts are more of the same soft-porn style as published by Tucho in Heal Me with Your Mouth: The Art of Kissing, 1995, and in The Mystical Passion: Spirituality and Sensuality, 1998. The latter is about male and female orgasms. The newly discovered books show that the first two were not a youthful mistake, but that this erotic mindset was constant. KISS: Your mouth sings / without using words. Aged 39, Tucho wrote in his 2002 book ¿Por qué no termino de sanarme? (“Why can’t I finish healing myself?”), on page 10: “A body can make an impact if it wears the right clothes, clothes that awaken sensuality by accentuating interesting shapes, depending on the body type. The sensuality of tanned shoulders and arms is accentuated by wearing a T-shirt. Elegance is highlighted by concealing fat with a black vest and white …More

Analysis by the Mail on Sunday of publicly-available information shows one grant recipient was Professor Neil Ferguson, one of the biggest advocates for vaccines and whose advice to Prime Minister Boris Johnson led to the UK lockdown in March 2020, and who famously resigned as a government adviser two months later after it emerged he broke rules to meet his married lover. The above quote is from Saturday’s Daily Mail article: Scientists who advised government during Covid did not reveal they had received more than £200m in grants from one of the world’s biggest pharma investors. With each passing day, more and more details emerge about the elaborate, sophisticated plan imposed on the world in the guise of a pandemic crisis. Covert subsidies for “scientific” purposes—corrupt professors who laid the groundwork for a non-existent pandemic—have been exposed. So many people died from asymptomatic COVID! We …
Italian Priest Proposes "Baby Girl" as Christ in Nativity scene: On 3 December, Father Vitaliano Della Sala, pastor in Capocastello (Diocese of Avellino, Italy), told a local television station that a 'baby girl Jesus' should be introduced into nativity scenes because God could have incarnated as a woman as well. This "provocation" should stimulate reflection on women's "access" to Holy Orders: "I was thinking of having a baby girl Jesus born, to say that if Jesus was born male, this does not mean He privileged us men and excluded the possibility of women becoming deacons, priests and even bishops," Don Della Sala said. In 2023, the pro-homosexual priest featured two lesbians at the side of the manger.

I welcome this sort of stuff - The Orthodox Church ( who is monitoring this forum) will help spread the news of the Novus Ordo Heresies, further dividing the ever chance of unification. Imagine that, promoting a female messiah, and promoting young girls with hand grenades, and venerating NAZI's These Buggers are terrorists.
The Amsterdam Apparitions - Lady of All Nations - 1of2 Sacred Heart Publications The Apparitions of the Lady of All Nations was declared to be of supernatural origin on the 31st of May, 2002. In July 2005, The Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith requested, "that the words who once was Mary be left out of the prayer of the Lady of All Nations out of consideration for those who do not understand this phrase." The ending of the prayer is now to say: “May the Lady of All Nations, the Blessed Virgin Mary, be our Advocate. These messages are filled with prophecies. youtube.com/watch?v=kmGrlgKBsHE
Bishop Schneider promotes and celebrates the Mass in the Roman Rite, yet it is rarely celeberated in Kazakhstan, he told Adrian Milag in an online interview. Main points, video sequence below. - We have no altar girls in all Kazakhstan. It is banned. No women, no altar girls. - We have no Eucharistic ministers at all. - The only ordinary form to receive Holy Communion is kneeling and on the tongue, with the paten. There is no other possibility except for the sick. - Thanks be to God, our liturgies are very worthy… even in the Novus Ordo. - The people are pious and devoted. They don’t know the Latin Mass and some don’t even feel the necessity. If there would be a greater movement, it would be possible also. But until now we have not these considerable groups. - I celebrate in my private episcopal chapel the traditional Latin Mass and when I am teaching in the seminary, I also celebrate for the seminarians. - True ecumenism is that non-Catholics come back to the Church and embrace all …More
The way to interpret this is that Bishop Schneider believes that a reverent novus ordo is good enough for the faithful. Not good for his traditionalist credentials.
Bishop Schneider and Archbishop Vigano are among the few truly Catholic members of the hierarchy left in the Catholic Church. May Our Lady, Mediatrix of All Graces and Co-Redemptrix, continue to protect and keep them under Her Sacred Mantle.
