Leo XIV: "War Never Blessed By God": At today's extraordinary consistory, Leo XIV once again rejected the just war theory, declaring: "War is never worthy of man, and is never blessed by God." He also announced that the extraordinary consistory would become an annual event, with meetings lasting approximately two days held around the Solemnity of Saints Peter and Paul on 29 June. Furthermore, Leo XIV described his exercise of the papal office as that of one who 'asks' rather than commands.
Muziki ni muhimu katika litajia na hivyo basi ni lazima uchukuliwa kwa umakinifu fulani. Wastaarabu wa zamani, haswa Wagriki, walielewa nguvu za muziki, na sayansi ya ubongo imethibitisha: muziki una athari ya kina juu ya hisia zetu na jinsi tuyaonavyo mambo. Lakini kinachoweza kuwa njiz kuu ya maombi na uhubiri kinaweza kubdilika na kuwa silaha hatari. Kwa bahati mbaya, muziki wa sasa wa Litajia hutumika kwa mara nyingi kuwapendeza wanadunia, wala sio roho. Uovu wa muziki wa kilitajia ni janga la nyakati zetu , sio tu kwa Wakatoliki tu lakini pia kwa utamaduni pia. Iwapo muziki wa Kanisa utawapendeza wanadunia na kutotuinua juu ya kilicho cha kawaida tena, basi umefeli wajibu wake. Huwa tunaitawala dunia au sdunia itutawale. Muziki wa litajia ni silaha yenye nguvu, dhidi ya dunia au dhidi ya Kanisa. Aurelio Porfiri ni mtunzi , mwongozaji, mwalimu na mwandishi.

"Learn Synodality!" Leo XIV addressed the College of Cardinals this morning: "We learn synodality by doing it." Referring to the round-table format, Leo acknowledged that it "is not normal for many of you," but called it "an exercise of synodality and communion." The seating arrangements appear designed to prevent ideological clustering. Cardinal Raymond Burke (77) is seated with Cardinal Arthur Roche (76, Curia, Liturgy) Cardinal Timothy Radcliffe (80, Dominican), and Cardinal George Alencherry (81, retired, Syro-Malabar Church in India).
He especially asked cdls for their advice, pastoral experience to help him as Pope Counts on them to “discern what the Holy Spirit is saying today to the Church” Asks for their “honesty, frankness and realism in a spirit of communion… & patience.” Notes the consistory structure of round tables vs open discussion “is not normal for many of you” but asks them to engage in it as an exercise of synodality and communion.

Kardinali Baltazar Enrique Porras Cardozo, emeritus wa Caracas, alizuiliwa kuondoka Venezuela tarehe 10 Desemba. Mamlaka katika Uwanja wa Ndege wa Kimataifa wa Simón Bolívar ziliifuta pasipoti yake alipokuwa akijiandaa kupanda ndege kuelekea Madrid. Maafisa walimjulisha kuwa alikuwa chini ya marufuku ya kusafiri, wakamnyang'anya pasipoti yake, na wakamzuilia kwa takriban saa mbili kabla ya kumrudisha nyumbani kwake. Alisindikizwa hata alipokwenda msalani. Mamlaka zilisema "kutotii kanuni za usafiri" na kumtaka Kardinali Porras atie saini hati inayothibitisha kuwa hakuweza kusafiri. Kardinali aliripoti kwamba alipojaribu kupiga picha hati hiyo, alitishiwa kukamatwa. Alisema pia afisa mmoja alimwambia alionekana kama "marehemu" katika mfumo wa serikali, jambo lililotumika kuhalalisha kufutwa kwa pasipoti yake.

The proximity of the consistory (Friday and Saturday) to the FSSPX consecrations (Wednesday) has allegedly prompted Leo XIV to remove the liturgy from the consistory's agenda. This information was published by Nico Spuntoni on IlGiornale.it, who cited an anonymous cardinal as his source. Although "synodality" was already discussed in January, it has returned to the agenda. Spuntoni adds three more pieces of information. - Notable absences at the consistory due to ill health include conservative Cardinals Joseph Zen (Hong Kong), Péter Erdő (Budapest), and Willem Eijk (Utrecht). - There is unease among the professed members and religious sisters of the Priestly Fraternity of St Pius X, who do not wish to risk incurring a possible excommunication. - The consistory's agenda has not generally generated enthusiasm among cardinals. Some also dislike the Synod Secretariat's method of working in small groups. #newsSdvnwboncj
On June 25, Cardinal Gerhard Ludwig Müller commented on the Vatican's rejection of the German bishops' proposal to allow lay preaching during the Eucharist. Key excerpts: - "One must not separate the Liturgy of the Word from the Eucharistic liturgy by having a layperson preach the first part and an ordained priest celebrate the second." - "Luther already condemned this as an abuse, accusing priests and bishops of no longer being servants of the Word but mere ritualists." - "The Council of Trent taught that sacramentally ordained priests were instituted by Christ as ministers of both the Word and the Sacraments." - "One cannot arbitrarily divide priestly ministry and outsource parts of it without effectively denying the sacramental priesthood in a Protestant sense." - "Ironically, those who most eagerly invoke Vatican II contradict it on the question of lay preaching during Mass." - "Germany's perpetual protesters should study the foundations of Catholic theology instead of driving the …Zaidi

There are instances of our priests and nuns practicing it and teaching others,” he said. Cardinal Ratzinger wrote in 1989 that Eastern methods including yoga are "not free from dangers and errors" harmful to Catholic spirituality. A Product …Zaidi

Today, the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X has published the coats of arms and episcopal mottos of the four bishops to be ordained on Wednesday. Fr Pascal Schreiber's Family Lions Fr Pascal Schreiber has chosen the motto Virgo Fidelis ("Virgin Most Faithful"), one of the invocations from the Litany of Loreto. Episcopal mottos are usually drawn from the Bible or express the bishop's personal mission. His coat of arms contains personal references. The two lions are taken from his family's coat of arms. Each holds a golden quill, a canting reference to the surname Schreiber ("scribe"). The colours black, red, and gold are a nod to his German homeland. Fr Michael Goldade's Twelve Ears of Wheat Fr Michael Goldade's motto, Adeamus cum fiducia ("Let us go with confidence"), comes from Hebrews 4:16. The defining feature of his coat of arms is the twelve ears of wheat. Besides symbolizing the Eucharist, they recall North Dakota and Kansas, his places of origin and upbringing, also his …Zaidi
