Italian Priest Proposes "Baby Girl" as Christ in Nativity: On 3 December, Father Vitaliano Della Sala, pastor in Capocastello, Italy, told a local television station that a 'baby girl Jesus' should be introduced intonativity 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.
«Nel presepe un Gesù bambino a pezzi o un Gesù bambina». Don Vitaliano invita alla riflessione
Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán explains his stance on immigration, emphasizing that Hungary maintains “zero illegal immigration”. According to Orbán, anyone wishing to enter the country must request and receive permission beforehand, and no one can step onto Hungarian territory without it. He said that because Hungary blocks illegal immigration into both Hungary and the EU, the country faces EU financial sanctions—amounting, he claims, to one million euros per day. Orbán called this an example of the “absurd world” Europe is currently living in.

Pope Leo XIV published today an Apostolic Letter on archaeology. Marking 100 years since the founding of the Pontifical Institute of Christian Archaeology, he described the discipline as “indispensable for understanding Christianity”: “Revelation is always history. If this is so, then understanding Revelation requires an adequate knowledge of the historical, cultural and material contexts in which it took place,” he wrote. The Pontifical Institute, founded in 1925, is led by German priest Stefan Heid. He is world-famous for his research showing that the early Church celebrated Holy Mass ad orientem.
Pope to Pontifical Institute of Archaeology: “By concentrating on the physical traces of faith, archeology educates us in a theology of the senses: a theology that knows how to see, touch, smell and listen. Christian archeology is a school of the senses. By examining stones, ruins and other artifacts, it teaches us that nothing touched by faith is insignificant.
The Polish Bishops’ Conference has invited Pope Leo XIV to visit Poland. Archbishop Tadeusz Wojda of Gdańsk delivered the invitation during a private audience, noting that 2027 would be a fitting occasion as the Church marks the 150th anniversary of the Marian apparitions in Gietrzwałd. The Pope said his schedule for 2026–27 is already full but that he would consider the visit. According to Monsignor Wojda, Leo XIV expressed his affection for Poland and recalled visiting the country many times before.

Archbishop Wojda emphasised that he told the Pope that 2027 marks the 150th anniversary of the apparitions in Gietrzwałd, so ‘it is a good opportunity …
Bishop Erik Varden of Trondheim told AcePrensa.com on December 9 that we are already living in a post-secular age, something especially evident in northern Europe. He said that people are turning to Catholicism "because it is true", as many grow disillusioned with other options. "With so much collapse — of old certainties and institutions — and the fragility of our political, cultural, ecological and financial lives, people are looking for parameters that promise to withstand the flood." Regarding the increase in attendance at Mass in the Roman rite, Bishop Varden noted that this is happening "in some places, not everywhere". It is linked to a search for beauty, which the Church can offer. He urged simply celebrating the liturgy well and follow the rubrics: "Do the red and say the black." Referring to the Chartres pilgrimage over Pentecost, he observed that the young participants were impossible to categorise, ranging from people who attend charismatic services to those who attend the …More
The museum Künstlerhaus in Vienna, Austria, is presenting an exhibition titled “You Shall Make Yourself an Image.” It opened in late October 2025 and runs through 8 February 2026. The exhibition features about 40 provocateurs (“artists”) mocking Christian imagery. Catholic organizations and online petitions describe the exhibit as “blasphemous,” “insulting,” and as mocking key Christian symbols such as the crucifixion and imagery of the Virgin Mary. Works criticized include: - A wolf dressed in liturgical garments - A crucified frog - Portrayals of Mary as a trans woman or other provocative reinterpretations The Austrian right-wing party FPÖ (Austrian Freedom Party) condemned the exhibition as “a scandalous mockery of Christianity” and demanded that it be shut down, especially since it runs during Advent and Christmas and receives public funding. On Monday, a group of Catholics gathered outside the museum to protest the exhibition, including an act of penance prayer. However, …More
Homosex "Blessing" in Argentinian Cathedral: On 10 December, ElWanderer.com published the audio message from an anonymous Catholic woman who was horrified by a blessing of homosexuals in the Cathedral of San Isidro in the Buenos Aires Province of Argentina. The sacrilege occurred a few weeks ago. The woman's words in the audio are as follows: "In the cathedral, in the chapel where the tabernacle is, right in front of the Blessed Sacrament, at 6:15 p.m., they have just performed a blessing for two lesbian women dressed as brides in front of God, before the living Lord in the tabernacle. I told the priest: 'One thing is accompaniment, but we can’t consent to sin, much less bless it.' He replied, 'It's pastoral.'"

Cardinal Baltazar Enrique Porras Cardozo, emeritus of Caracas, was stopped from leaving Venezuela on December 10. Authorities at Simón Bolívar International Airport annulled his passport as he prepared to board a flight to Madrid. Officials informed him he was under a travel ban, confiscated his passport, and detained him for about two hours before sending him back to his residence. He was escorted even to go to the bathroom. Authorities claimed “non-compliance with travel regulations” and required Cardinal Porras to sign a document confirming he could not travel. The cardinal reported that when he attempted to photograph the document, he was threatened with arrest. He also said an officer told him he appeared as “deceased” in the government system, which was used to justify the passport cancellation. The incident follows growing tension between the Venezuelan government and the Church. Weeks earlier, Cardinal Porras had described the situation in Venezuela as “morally unacceptable …More
Cardinal Baltazar Porras, emeritus of Caracas, Venezuela, was banned from leaving the country as he was boarding a plane. He was told that he won't be allowed to leave Venezuela anymore. Last month Porras said that Venezuela lives a situaton "morally unacceptable."
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.
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
Cardinal José Cobo Is an Active Homosexual, a Spanish TV host claims publicly: On 20 November, Federico Jiménez Losantos, a well-known Spanish radio host and political commentator, said on his show: "If you see a bishop, examine him. Some of them have boyfriends who are involved in all kinds of trouble, yet they go around preaching the gospel. My goodness, I don't even want to think about it. I'm referring to Cobo, the bishop of Madrid." Jiménez Losantos didn't present factual information. He made this insinuation after spending several minutes explaining that the Catholic hierarchy is cowardly, treacherous, and aligned with the government.
En su programa de este 20 de noviembre, Federico Jiménez Losantos dejó caer una frase que, en cualquier época mínimamente sana de la Iglesia, habría desatado un escándalo de proporciones sísmicas: «Hay alguno que tiene al novio también metido en toda clase de líos… Me refiero a Cobo, el obispo de Madrid»
When we started Gloria.tv almost twenty years ago, we had no idea that you were supposed to have serious start-up capital and a polished financial plan. Thank God we didn’t know! In hindsight, we believe that it is an act of Divine Providence that Gloria.tv has worked all these years. Being chronically underfunded has taught us: - to complain and whine to Saint Joseph - to count every penny and dispense with necessary equipment - to trust in God, because we never lacked what we needed to pay our bills, not once. We can't express how grateful we are also to YOU for that! The upside of lacking a business plan is independence. There are no favours to return, no hidden sponsors waiting for a call-back, and no tribal axe to grind. Gloria.tv is beholden to God and, at its best, serves the Church, the truth and, at least, freedom. As a social media platform, Gloria.tv is unique among Catholic sites and thus makes a real difference online. Just like 18 years ago, we still don't have a Plan …More
If you are unable to make a financial contribution, are based in a poor country, or already have too many other responsibilities, please say a prayer to St Joseph for Gloria.tv.
When leaving Castel Gandolfo yesterday, Pope Leo XIV was asked by journalists why, unlike his predecessors, he had not prayed inside the Blue Mosque in Istanbul on 29 November. "Who said I didn't pray?" Leo XIV replied. “They said I didn’t, but I already explained on the plane – I mentioned a book – and perhaps I am praying even now.” The book in question was 'The Practice of the Presence of God' by Brother Lawrence. Leo XIV added that it is a matter of style and place of prayer, and that his favorite place to pray is a Catholic church in the presence of the Blessed Sacrament. He called it "curious" that this moment had attracted so much attention. When asked when he will move into the Apostolic Palace, Pope Leo XIV said: "There is no date yet. I am comfortable where I am, in the Holy Office." Regarding US President Donald Trump, Pope Leo XIV believes that he is trying to break the "alliance" between the United States and Europe. He said: "The recent remarks made in interviews about …More
Asked when he will move into the Apostolic Palace, Pope Leo XIV says “There is no date yet; I am comfortable where I am, in the [Palace of the] Holy Office."
During Pope Leo XIV’s visit to Piazza di Spagna on December 8, a minor incident occurred as the papal motorcade was departing. Two female animal-rights activists attempted to display a sign calling for an end to animal fighting. Police intervened and stopped the women before they could unfurl the banner. The popemobile briefly slowed, then continued its route without further issues.
Mentre Papa Leone XIV lasciava piazza di Spagna, la polizia italiana ha immediatamente fermato il tentativo di alcune attiviste di Peta (People for the Ethical treatment of animals) che si erano avvicinate alle transenne per alzare degli striscioni in modo da renderli visibili al Pontefice. La Papamobile si è fermata per qualche momento mentre gli uomini della polizia italiana procedevano ad abbassare gli striscioni. Dopo poco la Papamobile con a bordo il Pontefice ha ripreso la marcia verso il Traforo.
The French President Macron has unilaterally decided to remove the historic stained-glass windows in six of Notre-Dame’s south-aisle chapels. These 19th-century windows survived the 2019 fire untouched and are legally protected as historic monuments. This move ignores heritage law, disregards expert bodies that were never consulted, and contradicts the law of restoring Notre-Dame to its last known historical state. The proposal comes with an extraordinary price tag: over four million euros to replace windows that do not need replacing.
Les nouveaux vitraux de Notre-Dame seront "multiculturels"
This may be a blessing (God’s Will) in disguise, preserving it for future generations. Such as the icon of Our Lady of Consolation, Our Lady of Czestochowa, Advocata Nostra.
Archbishop Georg Gänswein, now Nuncio to Lithuania, told K-Tv.org that he has never understood why Pope Francis issued Traditionis custodes. The worldwide survey of bishops indicated that Summorum Pontificum had brought “liturgical peace.” Why Francis nonetheless imposed new restrictions “remains a mystery,” he said, adding that Francis’s accompanying letter offered no clear explanation. Monsignor Gänswein also mentioned that the Archbishop of Vilnius told him there are “no difficulties at all” with Roman-rite Catholics in Lithuania. The group is small but includes many young people and families, and “the bishops have no problem with this cooperation or with this different liturgical form; they approve and are satisfied with it.” Furthermore, Monsignor Gänswein recalled Benedict XVI’s insistence that the Roman rite was never abolished: “It cannot be legitimate and precious one day and no longer so the next.” Benedict wanted that those who had lost their “spiritual and liturgical …More

Swiss Auxiliary Bishop Marian Eleganti has criticised the Vatican study commission that has examined the impossibility of a female diaconate. In a post on his personal blog on 8 December, he argued that it was difficult to understand why the commission was unable to reach a definitive conclusion. According to Eleganti, "it is all too obvious that, despite the historical evidence, the goal is to keep the pot simmering — to keep the question open." He notes that church feminists already wear "fantasy stoles". He recalls that previous study commissions have repeatedly re-examined the historical record, only to arrive at the same results that have been known for decades. "Is it tragedy or comedy?" he asks. The bishop adds that the ancient deaconesses "were different from the deacons of their time and were shaped by cultural circumstances". Contradicting Sister Linda Pocher, who is presented publicly as a papal advisor, Eleganti insists that the Church's rejection of a sacramental female …More
Christ said that your yes must mean yes, and your no must mean no. Since V2 we hear doublespeak from the hierarchy. It is mamby pambyand all it does is confuse everyone. From this, sins can be committed because everything is fluid.
On 30 November, Cardinal Reinhard Marx consecrated the new table altar in the parish church of Maria Schutz in Munich-Pasing. The church’s sanctuary had been completely redesigned. The new altar table and the matching ambo are made of light-colored artificial stone and feature a wavy form. According to the artist, the wave-like contours are intended to echo the protective folds of Mary’s mantle. Round forms and circles are commonly used in various pagan religions.

Zelenskyy meets Leo XIV for 3rd time: Leo XIV met today with (still) Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy at Castel Gandolfo, marking their third meeting since the start of his pontificate. The Pope renewed his call for dialogue and for a just and lasting peace. The talks also focused on prisoners of war and the urgent need to ensure the return of Ukrainian children to their families.

In a 23-page response, the International Marian Association Theological Commission (IMA) highlights what it sees as significant errors and omissions in Cardinal Tucho Fernández’s doctrinal note Mater Populi Fidelis. Key phrases: - If the title Co-redemptrix is always inappropriate or inopportune to use, then the popes, saints and mystics who approved or used the title were acting in an inappropriate and imprudent manner. - Members of the IMA Theological Commission who have taught Mariology for decades certainly do not find the title Co-redemptrix ‘unhelpful’. - While it is appropriate that Mater Populi Fidelis acknowledges papal uses of the title Co-redemptrix, it is unfortunate that these papal uses are not given greater respect or presence in the actual text. - It is unusual that a doctrinal note of the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith would quote at length a secular interview by a cardinal prefect, and at the same time, not include over ten papal usages of the same title. …More
The International Marian Association Theological Commission has now also joined those critiquing Cardinal Fernández's recent Marian document. The controversy continues to grow over the completely unnecessary text
The tragedy of Fernandez and Leo XIV is that they know the IMA's arguments very well, but they wilfully ignore the truth. In complete accordance with the modernism they adhere to.
