Belgian Bishop Trains Married Men to Be Ordained Priests by 2028. Bishop Johan Bonny of Antwerp, Belgium, told LaLibre.be on September 14 about his plan, announced already in March, to ordain married men to the priesthood by 2028. In June, he informed two Curia Cardinals about his course of action: Cardinal Lazarus You Heung-sik, Prefect of the Dicastery for the Clergy, and Cardinal Mario Grech, Secretary General of the Synod of Bishops. Monsignor Bonny claims that the move is driven "by necessity", pointing to the acute shortage of priests in Flanders. Antwerp diocese has fewer than 70 priests under the age of 70, two-thirds of whom are from abroad. The Cardinals replied that they would discuss it with Pope Leo XIV. Bishop Bonny has identified several candidates for priestly ordination. They are receiving theological and pastoral training comparable to that of seminarians. The preparation is being conducted “in a transparent but discreet manner, away from the media spotlight,” he …Lahi ange

Bishop Strickland rejects yesterday's Vatican document marking 60 years of Nostra Aetate. Bishop Emeritus Joseph Strickland from Tyler, Texas, wrote on X.com on September 16 that the new Vatican document - approved by Leo XIV - “must be rejected and repudiated by all who hold Jesus Christ and His Church as the only way to the Father.” He refers to §54 on ‘The Path of Hope’: “The defensive entrenchment in one’s own position and the view that proselytism is the only way to engage with the other no longer make sense in a world that increasingly resembles an interconnected and constantly evolving global village.” Strickland counters: “Truth is not constantly evolving, Truth is Jesus Christ present with us in the world and His Church is the vehicle for our salvation.” #newsZzmwnhglqh

Bishop Laurent Le Boulc’h announced in late August that the Diocese of Lille will shrink from 106 parishes to just 30, and from 14 deaneries to 5. Consultations run through 2026, with new boundaries due in 2027 and implementation in summer 2028. The sweeping restructuring is presented as part of the diocese’s “missionary renewal.”

‘ZERO A.D.’ BRINGS THE BIRTH OF CHRIST TO THE BIG SCREEN THIS CHRISTMAS | SG News The story of Christ’s birth is coming to the big screen this Christmas in a dramatic new biblical epic. Angel Studios’ Zero A.D.: The Birth of Christ, directed by Sound of Freedom filmmaker Alejandro Monteverde, is scheduled for nationwide theatrical release on December 11, 2026. Rather than portraying the Nativity only as a peaceful scene in Bethlehem, Zero A.D. takes audiences into the dangerous world surrounding the birth of Jesus — a world in which King Herod sees the arrival of a newborn king as a direct threat to his throne. At the heart of the film is Mary, portrayed by Deva Cassel. Her journey is presented as one of extraordinary courage, sacrifice and faith as she protects the Child entrusted to her while darkness gathers around the Holy Family. Jamie Ward stars as Joseph, alongside Sam Worthington, Ben Mendelsohn and Gael García Bernal. But perhaps the film’s most striking casting choice is Jim …Lahi ange
„ZERO A.D.“ BRINGT DIE GEBURT CHRISTI ZU WEIHNACHTEN AUF DIE GROSSE LEINWAND | SG News Die Geschichte von Christi Geburt kommt dieses Weihnachten in einem dramatischen neuen Bibelepos auf die große Leinwand. „Zero A.D.: Die Geburt Christi“ von Angel Studios, unter der Regie von Alejandro Monteverde („Sound of Freedom“), startet am 11. Dezember 2026 bundesweit in den Kinos. Anstatt die Geburt Christi nur als friedliche Szene in Bethlehem darzustellen, entführt „Zero A.D.“ die Zuschauer in die gefährliche Welt rund um die Geburt Jesu – eine Welt, in der König Herodes die Ankunft des neugeborenen Königs als direkte Bedrohung für seinen Thron sieht. Im Mittelpunkt des Films steht Maria, gespielt von Deva Cassel. Ihre Reise wird als eine Geschichte von außergewöhnlichem Mut, Opferbereitschaft und Glauben dargestellt, während sie das ihr anvertraute Kind beschützt und sich Dunkelheit um die Heilige Familie zusammenbraut.

The carnival musician who almost married but then became a monk is now heading Heiligenkreuz. The 84 voting monks of the "conservative" Cistercian abbey of Heiligenkreuz near Vienna elected Fr Simeon Wester, 61, as their new superior today. He will lead the community for the next three years without becoming abbot. Born Karl Wester in Unkel on the Rhine, Germany, he grew up as one of five children. Music came early: piano, organ and trombone, followed by formal studies in choral conducting, singing and church music. As a young man, he was involved in the Rhineland carnival scene. Years later, when the musician decided to become a monk, the Cologne tabloid Express put the story on its front page: “Our carnival fool is going to the monastery.” Wester had felt drawn to monastic life since his teens but initially chose music. Around the age of 35, close to marrying his long-term girlfriend, he finally made the leap. He entered Heiligenkreuz in 2001. Music followed him behind the monastery …Lahi ange
"You now perceive that this devotion is not an invention of modern times, but a doctrine universally enforced in the best and purest ages of the Church. You see that praying for the dead was not a devotion cautiously recommended by some obscure or visionary writer, but an act of religion preached and inculcated by all the great Doctors and Fathers of the Church, who are the recognized expounders of the Christian religion. You see them, too, inculcating this doctrine not as a cold and abstract principle, but as an imperative act of daily piety, and embodying it in their ordinary exercises of devotion."
‘Purgatory’ by J. Sadlier; 1886; Chapter I – ‘CARDINAL GIBBONS ON PURGATORY.…’; pages 48-49; part I [Saint Catherine of Genoa – XV-XVI Century AD; born: Genoa, Republic of Genoa/ died: Genoa, Republic of Genoa; Aged 62-63; mystic, known for her work among the sick and the poor] CARDINAL GIBBONS ON PURGATORY. The Catholic Church teaches that, besides a place of eternal torments lor the wicked and of everlasting rest for the righteous, there exists in the next life a middle state of temporary punishment, allotted for those who have died in venial sin, or who have not satisfied the justice of God for sins already forgiven. She also teaches us that, although the souls consigned to this intermediate state, commonly called Purgatory, cannot help themselves, they may be aided by the suffrages of the faithful on earth. The existence of Purgatory naturally implies the correlative dogma—the utility of praying for the dead ; for the souls consigned to this middle state have not reached the term of …Lahi ange

On the part of God, unlike on the part of man, there is no breaking of His plan, but only development and refinement of the Ancient Covenant, in the New and definitive Covenant, which will give the “small remnant” of the Jews faithful to the Messiah a “new heart” and will open up to all humanity... Jesus did not establish a new religion, he taught that God wanted the salvation of all mankind and that the coming of Christ was the condition of such salvation... The Christian community remained faithful to the Old Testament Tradition, recognizing in Jesus the Christ-Messiah announced by the Prophets. For Christians, it is post-biblical Judaism that is unfaithful to the OT, but there is a “small ” faithful remnant, which upon entering the Church of Christ guarantees the continuity of the (Old-New) Covenant, in view of Christ coming. He is the “cornerstone” who “made of two [peoples: Jews and Gentiles] one thing” [Christians]».
A mosque dispute is escalating in Mestre, on the Venetian mainland. A Muslim association linked to the local Bangladeshi community bought a former sawmill for €1.5 million to build an Islamic centre. However, the site would require a municipal change of use. Venice Mayor Simone Venturini says the conditions for approval are not currently met, citing planning and integration concerns. Association president Prince Howlader threatened a strike in late August. He claimed Bangladeshi workers could disrupt tourism, hotels and restaurants. However, workers and unions showed limited support, and the protest was put on hold for talks.
