The church Saint-Nicaise de Rouen in Rouen, France, will become a brasserie-restaurant with an additional museum space. The site dates back to the 7th century, when a chapel was built for the relics of Saint Nicaise. The current building was reconstructed in reinforced concrete after a fire in 1934 and reopened for worship in 1940. Due to structural deterioration, water infiltration, and lack of maintenance, the church was closed in 2006 and officially deconsecrated in 2017. The new project includes a restaurant, on-site beer production, and preservation of some architectural elements. The church’s large organ, completed in 1957 and one of the most important in Rouen, has been removed and will be relocated to another church in Paris for restoration. Local authorities cited high restoration costs as the main reason for the conversion. #newsRxmfreixrh
Medforth AI A survey in Spain found some 80.5 percent of individuals aged 17 – 25 reject the socialist government’s mass amnesty plans for half a million illegal migrants, the digital newspaper El Españolreported on Sunday. The survey was conducted by the polling and research firm SocioMétrica for El Español between April 15 and 18 — the same week that the socialist government led by Prime Minster Pedro Sánchez began its mass amnesty process to benefit 500,000 illegal migrants in Spain with legal residence and work permits. The Spanish government launched the highly criticized amnesty process despite a fierce rejection from the nation’s population and parliament. El Español detailed that, per SocioMétrica‘s findings, the measure is not just overwhelmingly rejected by the Spanish youth, but by the Spanish population in general, with 66.7 percent of respondents expressing to be against the mass amnesty plans against roughly one third of respondents who expressed to be in favor …
Gänswein is desperately seeking approval from his Bergoglian masters. He is their weapon to fake their continuity with Pope Benedict and weaken trad opposition. Frankly, I have no idea why Gloria tv writes about that poor man
Anonymous European Union bans destruction of unsold clothes and shoes from July 2026 forcing fashion brands to change. A new rule in Europe is set to change how the fashion industry handles unsold products. From July 2026, companies will no longer be allowed to destroy unused clothes and shoes. This move directly targets waste, especially in fast fashion, where large amounts of inventory are often discarded instead of reused or repurposed. The change means brands must rethink how they produce and manage stock. Instead of disposal, they will be expected to explore options like recycling, donation, or improving production planning. This could lead to more responsible manufacturing and reduce the environmental impact linked to excess clothing and material waste. The decision reflects a broader shift toward sustainability and accountability. It sets a clear boundary that usable goods should not be treated as waste. For many, it signals a future where industries are pushed to balance profit …More

The Diocese of Cremona, Italy, has announced two spring events flirting with homosexuality. A biblical-theological meeting will take place on April 24, followed by a prayer vigil on May 8 at the Church of San Giuseppe in Cambonino. The April meeting, led by Jesuit priest Father Iuri Sandrin, is intended to reflect on how homosexual relationships raise questions for Christian communities. The May vigil, presided over by Bishop Antonio Napolioni, is described as being for the overcoming of discrimination, particularly "homophobia" and "transphobia". According to the diocese, the initiatives aim to “help” homosexuals to feel more included in the Church. The announcement also references a 2025 synodal document by the Italian Bishops’ Conference, which encourages local Churches to promote homosexualism. In November 2018, Monsignor Napolioni held an ecumenical prayer vigil with Methodists and Seventh-day Adventists in Cremona. #newsNdjhryqaaq
On Sunday, Cardinal Konrad Krajewski of Łódź, Poland, met with the faithful of the Roman rite at the Chapel of All Saints in Łódź outside of the liturgy. Cardinal Krajewski said he was happy that Catholics could attend Mass in the Roman rite at three locations within the Archdiocese of Łódź. He added that ten priests have been assigned to this pastoral ministry of the Latin Mass under Rev. Paweł Markowski's responsibility. Cardinal Krajewski served as Papal Almoner from 2013 to 2026. On 12 March 2026, Pope Leo XIV appointed him Archbishop of Łódź. The cardinal was renowned for his activism on behalf of transvestite prostitutes, having organised several lunches for the 'poor' with Pope Francis to which he invited dozens of transvestites. #newsZfmceyuwqp
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.

Südlibanon: Israelischer Soldat verunstaltet Jesusfigur Die israelische Armee hat eingeräumt, dass es im Süden Libanons zu Vandalismus gegen eine Jesusfigur gekommen ist. Die Streitkräfte verurteilen den Vorfall und kündigen angemessene Maßnahmen gegen die Verantwortlichen an.

A UK Christian Pastor will face TRIAL this week for preaching a gospel message based on John 3.16 near a general hospital. He is accused of attempting to “influence” people accessing abortion. He never even mentioned this topic. This trial is important. Can Christians really be removed from public spaces not because of what they say or do - but because of what they might think??
On 19 April, the Israeli army confirmed that a soldier had beheaded a crucifix in Debel, southern Lebanon. In response, the Christian town wrote: “Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do”. The army claimed that it views the incident with “great severity”, that the act is inconsistent with its values, and that an investigation is underway. The army also promised that measures would be taken against those responsible.
