POPE LEO ELEVATES SIX SERVANTS OF GOD | SG News Pope Leo XIV has advanced the sainthood causes of six Servants of God, recognizing that they lived the Christian virtues to a heroic degree. During an audience with Cardinal Marcello Semeraro, prefect of the Dicastery for the Causes of Saints, on October 24, the Pope authorized the promulgation of six decrees of heroic virtue. The six may now be known as Venerable Servants of God. Among them are two remarkable missionary bishops. Venerable Friedrich Kaiser Depel, born in Germany, was sent as a missionary to Peru in 1939. He later became the first Territorial Prelate of Caravelí and worked to spread Sacred Scripture, strengthen isolated Catholic communities and respond to the shortage of priests. He also founded the Missionary Sisters of Jesus, Word and Victim, a congregation dedicated especially to serving communities where priests were scarce. The second missionary bishop is Venerable Oreste Marengo, an Italian Salesian who travelled to …Gehiago

Er gründete außerdem die Missionsschwestern Jesu, des Wortes und des Opfers, eine Kongregation, die sich insbesondere der …Gehiago
From the text: drawing on the numerous documents and resources prepared by the Dicastery for Evangelization, it is now more urgent than ever to examine wisely and with discernment the current ways of organizing catechesis, so that the transmission of the faith is not confined to language that can be labeled as ‘scholastic,’ ‘dogmatic,’ or ‘moralistic.’
FROM SWISS GUARD TO DEACON: A CALL TO SERVE CHRIST | SG News For eight years, Didier Grandjean stood guard at the Vatican, serving two Popes and protecting the heart of the Catholic Church. Now, the former Pontifical Swiss Guard has taken another kind of oath — one that brings him a major step closer to the Catholic priesthood. Didier Grandjean was ordained a deacon on October 24, 2026, at the Church of Notre-Dame de l’Assomption in Albeuve, Switzerland. Bishop Charles Morerod of Lausanne, Geneva and Fribourg presided over the celebration in Grandjean’s native Gruyère region. But his road to the altar began long before seminary. Before joining the Swiss Guard, Grandjean trained as a landscaper. At 21, he entered the Pontifical Swiss Guard in 2011. He would spend eight years serving at the Vatican — first under Pope Benedict XVI and then under Pope Francis. During his years of service, Grandjean rose to the rank of vice-corporal and worked in communications for the Guard. But something …Gehiago
VON DER SCHWEIZERGARDE ZUM DIAKON: EIN RUF ZUM DIENST AN CHRISTUS | SG News Acht Jahre lang versah Didier Grandjean Wache im Vatikan, diente zwei Päpsten und schützte das Herz der katholischen Kirche. Nun hat der ehemalige Schweizergardist einen anderen Eid abgelegt – einen, der ihn dem katholischen Priestertum einen großen Schritt näher bringt. Didier Grandjean wurde am 24. Oktober 2026 in der Kirche Notre-Dame de l’Assomption in Albeuve, Schweiz, zum Diakon geweiht. Bischof Charles Morerod von Lausanne, Genf und Freiburg leitete die Feier in Grandjeans Heimatregion Gruyère. Doch sein Weg zum Altar begann lange vor dem Priesterseminar. Bevor er der Schweizergarde beitrat, absolvierte Grandjean eine Ausbildung zum Landschaftsgärtner. Mit 21 Jahren trat er 2011 in die Schweizergarde ein. Acht Jahre lang diente er im Vatikan – zunächst unter Papst Benedikt XVI. und dann unter Papst Franziskus. Während seiner Dienstzeit stieg Grandjean zum Vizekorporal auf und arbeitete in der Kommunikati…Gehiago

I'm sorry but I don't' want to hear the whining from Dr. Kwasniewski, Matt and the other " wait before we judge Leo" appeasers. Start acting like men! Defend and support the SSPX, denounce the infiltrators or keep straddling the fence.

@Instaurare Omnia in Christo But you are a Soviet troll so I won't be following your anti Catholic advice, blocker! I see you also support a false religion that blasphemes Our Blessed Mother's Immaculate Conception. You should be ashamed of yourself for promoting such anti Catholic blasphemy! Only someone who believes in false religions like you would find my comment sick.
Bishops who prayed over President Donald Trump in the Oval Office on October 22 are distancing themselves from the event, accusing the White House of exploiting their prayer for political purposes just twelve days before the midterm elections. Denver Archbishop James Golka, who led the prayer, denied endorsing Trump or the Republicans. He said the bishops had not authorized publication of the footage and expressed sadness that a sacred act had been manipulated. Milwaukee Archbishop Jeffrey Grob publicly apologized, saying he regretted ignoring his reservations. Des Moines Bishop William Joensen admitted he had been naive and accused others of partisan exploitation. The bishops said they expected private discussions on immigration, religious-worker visas, human dignity and education. Instead, they were directed to stand behind Trump for prayer. The meeting was arranged with help from Mario Enzler of the conservative Heritage Foundation, architect of Project 2025. Enzler previously resigned …Gehiago

Woman Distributes Communion at Leo XIV’s Eucharist — One Communicant Bare-Chested During the Eucharist celebrated by Leo XIV this evening at the Port of Rimini, a woman was spreading Communion in the hand as if it were cookies. One male attendee even received Communion bare-chested, without a shirt.
Trust God's Purpose When Life Seems Unjust Difficulties in life are not punishments from God, but rather opportunities for growth and purification. God allows challenges for those who are acceptable to Him, to strengthen their faith and prepare them for greater things. This perspective helps us understand trials as rewards, not punishments, and encourages us to focus on God’s intentions rather than human actions. Fr.

US Bishop prohibits celebration facing the Lord (ad orientem). On October 2, Bishop Jeffrey Walsh, 60, of Gaylord, Michigan, issued a decree restricting the celebration of the Mass towards the Lord. It takes effect on October 15. Under the new rules, all Sunday and holy day Masses must be read - like a talk or show - facing the people. On weekdays, no more than two Masses per parish may be celebrated ad orientem, and only after consultation with the parish council and appropriate catechesis. Weddings, funerals, and other Masses with congregations must also be celebrated facing the people. Masses according to the 1962 Missal are exempt. The bishop invokes paragraph 299 of the General Instruction of the Roman Missal (GIRM), claiming it favors celebration versus populum. However, the text of GIRM 299 does NOT require Mass to be celebrated facing the people. It recommends a freestanding altar that can be walked around to incense it with a thurible and permits celebration versus populum. It …Gehiago
Notice this is being said by a Bishop who appears to be preparing to offer Mass in a gymnasium. You can see the cruets, chalice, paten, etc. on a little table behind him. Of course he cares nothing for a Mass offered to God (i.e. ad orientem) with due sacrality and wants to suppress it since it is a reproach to his own humanistic viewpoint.
US Bishop bans St. Michael prayer after Mass. Bishop Mark Beckman of Knoxville, Tennessee, has directed priests to discontinue the communal recitation of the Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel immediately before or after Mass. In his October 16 article, he claims that in order to celebrate the liturgy “in accordance with the mind of the Church” priests need to “catechize the people of God as we move away from additional prayers recited together immediately before, during, and immediately after Mass.” Additional prayers - including those to St. Michael, St. Francis, and the Holy Spirit - should not become regular additions to the celebration of Mass. He cited the Second Vatican Council's call for a liturgy marked by “noble simplicity.” #newsIisjgbwbuz
But at that time shall Michael rise up, the great prince, who standeth for the children of thy people: and a time shall come such as never was from the time that nations began even until that time. And at that time shall thy people be saved, every one that shall be found written in the book. 2And many of those that sleep in the dust of the earth, shall awake: some unto life everlasting, and others unto reproach, to see it always. 3But they that are learned shall shine as the brightness of the firmament: and they that instruct many to justice, as stars for all eternity. 4But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time appointed: many shall pass over, and knowledge shall be manifold.
