Star Wars-themed "Liturgy" in German church: Rev Gerd Neumeier from the Archdiocese of Bamberg, Germany, held a Star Wars-themed church service. He linked the saga’s themes of good versus evil to Christian teachings. The church featured stormtroopers, lightsaber battles, and a “May God’s force be with you” projection. Neumeier dressed as Obi-Wan Kenobi (“Obi-Wan KeNeumeier”), while the service combined adapted prayers, readings, and film music. The priest later said, he felt the service resonated with the congregation.

Mit "Macht": Erzbistum Bamberg feiert Star Wars-Gottesdienst

"Die Dunkelheit ist mächtig. Sie kennt verschiedene Formen: Einsamkeit, Egoismus, Ausgrenzung, Ablehnung. Denkst du wirklich, ein winziger Funke göttlicher Macht vermag es, das endlose Reich der Schatten und Finsternis zu bezwingen?", fragt Darth Vader den Jedi Gabriel. Sie liefern sich mitten in der Kirche der Burg Feuerstein einen Lichtschwertkampf - ein Gottesdienst der etwas anderen Art.

Mit Star Wars den Weg zum christlichen Glauben finden
Diözesanjugendpfarrer Gerd Richard Neumeier hatte die Idee zum Star Wars-Gottesdienst. "In den Star-Wars-Filmen geht es um Gut und Böse, um Licht und Dunkel – also um all die Themen, die im Christentum, in der Bibel und im Leben aufleuchten“, beschreibt er den Zusammenhang zwischen Star Wars und dem christlichen Glauben. Durch den neuen Gottesdienst sollen kirchenferne Menschen, vor allem aber Jugendliche in Kontakt mit dem christlichen Glauben kommen. Und das klappt bei …

"Eternal Wisdom.--It is as impossible as to compress the heavens together and enclose them in a nut shell. Such persons array themselves in fair words, they build upon the wind, and construct upon the rainbow. How may the eternal abide with the temporal, when even one temporal thing neither can nor will endure another? He but deceives himself who thinks he can lodge the King of kings in a common inn, or thrust Him into the mean dwelling of a servant. In entire seclusion from all creatures must he keep himself who is desirous of receiving his guest as he ought.”

‘A Little Book of Eternal Wisdom’ by Blessed Henry Suso; ‘How Deceitful the Love of This World is’ – Chapter VI; pages 25-26

[Blessed Henry Suso; XIII-XIV Century AD; Uberlingen, Holy Roman Empire/Ulm, Holy Roman Empire; (aged 70); Religious, Priest; Mystic; German Dominican Friar]
“ Chapter VI ~ How Deceitful the Love of This World is, And How Amiable God Is
The Servant.--Sweetest God,
if I leave Thee but a little I am like a young roe which has strayed from its dam, and is pursued by the hunter, and runs wildly about, until it escapes back to its cover. Lord, I flee, I run to Thee with ardent desire, like a stag to the living waters. Lord, one little hour without Thee is a whole year; to be estranged one day from Thee is as much as a thousand years to a loving heart. Therefore, Thou branch of salvation, Thou bush of May, Thou red blooming rose-tree, open and spread out the green branches of Thy divine nature. Lord, Thy countenance is so full of graciousness, Thy mouth so full of living words, Thy whole carriage such a pure mirror of all discipline and meekness! O Thou aspect of graciousness to all the saints …More

CLEVELAND -- A Republican judge for a county juvenile court is challenging the voter‑approved reproductive rights amendment in the Ohio Supreme Court, arguing that it is being interpreted in a way that eliminates Ohio’s parental consent and judicial bypass requirements for minors seeking abortions.
Trumbull County Court of Common Pleas Domestic Relations and Juvenile Division Judge David Engler filed suit in the Ohio Supreme Court this week, contending that the amendment conflicts with Article IV of the Ohio Constitution, which establishes the authority and jurisdiction of the state’s courts.
Engler argues that the amendment, approved by voters in November 2023, has infringed upon his jurisdiction as a juvenile court judge …

James Martin in leaked audio: There has been a “step forward,” not a full change in doctrine. Martin points to Fiducia Supplicans, approved under Pope Francis. It allows priests to give non-liturgical, spontaneous blessings to same-sex couples. These are not marriages and not formal ceremonies. Recognition of “goodness” in these relationships. He emphasizes that the Church is beginning to acknowledge positive elements (love, commitment, faith) in same-sex couples. Change is gradual, not revolutionary. The Church is “moving,” but slowly. What may seem minor in Western countries is very controversial globally, especially in parts of Africa, Eastern Europe, and Latin America. Pastoral shift driven by real people. The growing visibility of LGBTQ individuals (family members, parishioners) is pushing the Church to engage more compassionately and realistically.

New Report Reveals that Most Catholics Find Peace in Confession and 83% Desire the Sacrament for God's Mercy and Forgiveness

New Report Reveals that Most Catholics Find Peace in Confession and 83% Desire the Sacrament for God's Mercy and Forgiveness
The 2026 Catholic Pulse Report: The Confession Study, conducted by Vinea Research Group, was released in March 2026. The report challenges the idea that the Sacrament of Reconciliation is in "irreversible decline" and instead suggests that many Catholics are open to returning to the practice if barriers related to personal discomfort and habit are addressed.

Fides Et Ratio

What stood out in this report is not a vague trend line but something concrete and measurable. Confession is increasing.
In a time when the common narrative says Catholics are disengaged, this points in the opposite direction. People are returning to the sacrament that requires honesty, examination of conscience, and a real encounter with mercy.

Pope's Brother: "When He Was 7, a Mom Said He’d Be the First American Pope"

John Prevost discussed in an April 17 interview with 'EWTN News In Depth' his life as the pope’s brother. Main points.
Loss of privacy: “I used to be able to leave the front door open. Now I’m hesitant because you don’t know who’s going to come to the door.”
Ordinary childhood: “Probably like anyone else’s—it was a mom and dad, three boys, school, homework, play, and repeat. It was just a normal life.”
Childhood memory: “One time we were building a shed in the backyard and Rob fell through the roof. It was just part of the wood was rotted, because we were using old doors from the house for the roof.”
Leo XIV’s early vocation: “We always knew that he wanted to be a priest. From a very young age, that was just always there.”
A “prophecy”: “When he was maybe in first or second grade, one of the moms across the street said, ‘You know, he’s going to be the first American Pope.’ We just kind of heard it and moved on.”
Still just brothers: “People say, ‘Who says no to the Pope?’ I …More

A crime that goes unspoken. That is the title of a film on the YouTube channel “Wbrew Cenzurze.” Not all of you have children of your own, but I hope that each of you can imagine the immense tragedy experienced by parents whose children have been brutally murdered for political reasons.
Every child killed is a crime against humanity. Regardless of the parents’ nationality, religion, skin color, or beliefs. We must always oppose this. What is a child at school to blame for when some scumbag fires rockets at that school? Forty minutes later, a second rocket was fired to kill those who had rushed to the aid of the suffering children. Then a third. Can such acts still be called war, or is this not simply brutality?
I have already shown in a previous post who fired these rockets. I will show these criminals once again.

Are you, for example, suggesting that there has been something essentially wrong with the Catholic understanding of holy orders for two millennia?

An Open Letter to Cardinal Jean-Claude Hollerich, S.J. - First Things

Your Eminence:
In an article recently published by a major German Catholic website, you suggested that the question of whether the Church can ordain women has not been definitively settled: “I cannot imagine how a Church can continue to exist in the long run if half of God’s people suffer because they have no access to ordained ministry.” Putting aside for a moment the questions of what, and how, suffering is caused by the Church’s ancient practice of calling only men to holy orders, your formulation raises questions about the past, present, and future.
Are you, for example, suggesting that there has been something essentially wrong with the Catholic understanding of holy orders for two millennia? How would such a notion square with the Lord’s promise to preserve his Church in truth through the continual outpouring of the Holy Spirit (John 15:16; 16:13)? The question of who can be admitted to holy orders has never been understood as a secondary matter of ecclesiastical discipline; it …

A church of accommodation to the world soon becomes a church of irrelevance to the supernatural lives of the people. It abandons the city of God for the city of man. The Protestant reformation has proven that lesson all too well.

For these ecclesiastical thugs, everything before V2 is wicked. Everything after V2 is sacred.
