U.S. and Canadian Jesuits Consolidate Novitiates

A decline in religious vocations has prompted the Jesuits in the United States and Canada to restructure the way they train future members of the pro-homosexual order.
The Jesuit Conference of Canada and the United States has announced that it will reduce the number of its novitiates from five to two by 2028. This decision was communicated in a letter dated 9 July and signed by the superiors of the conference's five provinces.
Under the new arrangement, one novitiate will be located in Detroit, Michigan, serving the USA Midwest, USA East and Canada provinces, while the second will remain in Culver City, California, serving the USA West and USA Central and Southern provinces. Each facility is expected to accommodate up to 30 novices.
"Running five novitiates takes an awful lot of high-quality Jesuit personnel," Fr. Joseph Daoust, SJ, superior of the Detroit Jesuit community, told DetroitCatholic.com on July 10. "Each novitiate requires three to four experienced Jesuits dedicated to …More

The Cow And The Cliff
A samurai master was walking through a forest with his faithful disciple when, in the distance, he noticed a place that looked desperately poor. He decided to pay it a brief visit.
As they walked, the master spoke to his apprentice about the importance of visiting unfamiliar places, meeting new people, and recognizing the opportunities for learning that such experiences can offer.
When they arrived, they saw just how severe the poverty was. The inhabitants—a husband and wife with their three children—wore dirty, torn
clothes and had no shoes. Their home was little more than a wooden shed.
The master approached the man, who appeared to be the head of the family, and asked:
“In a place like this, where there are no jobs and no shops or markets nearby, how do you manage to survive?”
The man replied:
“My friend, we have a cow that gives us several litres of milk every day. We sell some of it, or trade it in the neighbouring town for other kinds of food. With the rest,…More

In France, three dioceses have seen only a single priestly ordination in 16 years: • Rodez • Pamiers • Carcassonne.
Three others have recorded no ordinations for 12 to 14 years: • Aire-et-Dax • Le Puy-en-Velay • Le Havre.
Between 2023 and 2025, 56 priests have left the priesthood, while 105 diocesan priests have been ordained.

How Severe Is the Priest Shortage in French Dioceses?

French dioceses face a worsening vocation crisis, despite claims of improvement in seminary recruitment, Laurent Dastros writes on July 9 on Substack.com.
Dastros notes that, as of 2026, three French dioceses - Aire-et-Dax, Le Puy-en-Velay, and Le Havre - have gone between 12 and 14 years without a diocesan priestly ordination.
Carcassonne et Narbonne ended a 19-year gap in 2025 with the ordination of a 51-year-old candidate.
Annecy and Rodez could join this list next year if they continue without new ordinations.
Longer-Term Picture
Dastros calculates that between 2011 and 2026, only three dioceses recorded a single diocesan priestly ordination: Carcassonne et Narbonne, Rodez et Vabres, and Pamiers, Couserans et Mirepoix.
Based on the assumption that priests remain in active ministry for approximately 50 years, he estimates that, if current trends continue, each of these dioceses could eventually have only about three native diocesan priests.
He further identifies seven dioceses that …More

Leo XIV's New Bishop of Eichstätt Continues Debate on Celibacy

The newly appointed Bishop Christian Würtz of Eichstätt, Germany, expects further debate over priestly celibacy, he told Br.de on July 12.
On Tuesday, Pope Leo XIV appointed him from auxiliary bishop of Freiburg to the diocesan bishop of Eichstätt. During Germany's Synodal Way in 2022, he voted in favour of "blessings" for homosexual concubines and the "ordination" of women-clergy.
When asked about his predecessor, Msgr. Gregor Maria Hanke, who voted against those Synodal Way documents, Bishop Würtz said: "I think it goes too far to conclude from that that there are fundamental differences between him and me."
He described the different beliefs as "factional disputes."
Instead, he said, the focus should be on "what unites us": "That is also an important aspect of synodality - listening to one another, walking together, and learning from one another."
When it came to the topic of priestly celibacy, Bishop Würtz said: "This will certainly be a question that continues to occupy us in the …More

The RED LINES that the Magisterium of Pope Francis and Pope Leo XIV have crossed, and which are confusing the faithful and leading souls to the devil, to implement the Agenda of the New World Order in the Church.

1) Dismantling of Catholic Church doctrine and the two-millennia-old tradition brick by brick, to adapt it to the Agenda 2030.
a) Mark 8:33; Jesus rebuked Peter, saying, “Get behind me, Satan! For your thoughts are not those of God, but of men.”
b) John 7: 18; "He who speaks from himself seeks his own glory, but he who seeks the Glory of Him who sent him is true, and there is no unrighteousness in him."
2) Desecration of the Catholic Church through Syncretism of the Catholic Faith with paganism. Desecrating it through the goddess Pachamama and the introduction of the worship of Islam in the Vatican, and urging the faithful to discover Islam, the religion of Baal. They invited the practice of other pagan religions into the Vatican.
a) Deuteronomy 30:17-18; But if your heart turns away and you do not listen, if you let yourself be led astray into bowing down to other gods and worshiping them, I declare to you today that you will surely perish.
b) Exodus 32:19-21; When Moses came near the …More

REP. CHIP ROY ERUPTS AND HE NAILED IT! "PAUSE IMMIGRATION! Just STOP IT!
Stop ALL immigration!" "The United States Supreme Court, manufacturing out of thin air, a complete ABOMINATION of a ruling by the Chief Justice, suggesting that you can simply become a citizen from being born on dirt, thereby validating the abhorrent practice of baby factories and moving people here to be born to be able to become a citizen, leaving us under no choice but to do what we must do to say, pause immigration!" "Because if it's going to be exploited for people to come here when they're pregnant, to allow somebody who's working for the Chinese Communist Party and to come here and have children to become American citizens and then have our laws exploited like they were into the previous administration." "It is why this Congress should act to pause all immigration, this Congress should act immediately to codify what the president has been doing to close the loopholes under asylum …More
