The writing is on the wall. For those who have eyes, see! Israel eliminated Gaza. Look at pictures; rubble. They also killed and drove out people living in Gaza. Southern Lebanon will be annexed by Israel. They are clearing the ground; leveling towns and buildings and driving the Lebanese out.
They do these things because they hate the Catholic faith and they know Trump will say not a word against it. Billions of American taxpayer dollars will continue to flow freely into Israel .

Bishop René Henry Gracida has died at the age of 102. A veteran of World War II who flew combat missions aboard bombers before entering the priesthood, Gracida later served as Bishop of Pensacola-Tallahassee and then as Bishop of Corpus Christi, Texas, from 1983 to 1997. In his later years, he became known for questioning the legitimacy of Pope Francis’s papacy. Requiescat in pace.
From Diocese of Corpus Christi At the age of 102, Bishop René Henry Gracida passed away on the morning of May 1, 2026. Bishop Mario Avilés wrote, “It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Bishop Emeritus René Henry Gracida. He served as the fifth Bishop of the Diocese of Corpus Christi from 1983 until 1997. We are deeply grateful for his faithful service as our shepherd for 14 years.” Previously, he was appointed Bishop of the Diocese of Pensacola-Tallahassee in Florida (1975–1983) and as an auxiliary bishop of the Archdiocese of Miami in Florida (1971–1975). Born in New Orleans, Louisiana, on June 9, 1923, Gracida was the second child of Enrique J. Gracida Carrizosa, a Mexican architect and engineer, and Mathilde Derbes, a fifth-generation French American Cajun. His great uncle was a vicar general of a diocese in Mexico. As a teenager, Gracida was fascinated by the Jesuit martyrs portrayed in James Fenimore Cooper’s novel The Last of the Mohicans. During World War …Has köp
The church Saint-Cyriaque in Montenach, France, was severely damaged by fire on April 30. The cause of the fire remains under investigation. No injuries were reported.
L’église Saint-Cyriaque de Montenach a été gravement endommagée par un incendie le 30 avril 2026. Le feu, probablement parti d’une zone végétalisée voisine, s’est propagé à la toiture sous l’effet du vent, détruisant une grande partie de la charpente et provoquant l’effondrement partiel du clocher. Aucun blessé n’est à déplorer. Les causes exactes restent à déterminer.

Today, Pope Leo XIV has appointed three new U.S. bishops who have expressed criticism of President Donald Trump. Evelio Menjivar-Ayala, 55, currently auxiliary bishop for the Archdiocese of Washington, is the new bishop of Wheeling-Charleston covering West Virginia. He is a formerly undocumented immigrant who was smuggled into the United States in a car trunk. Furthermore, Leo XIV elevated the prelates Gary Studniewski, 68, and Robert Boxie, 45, as new auxiliary bishops for Washington Archdiocese. Cardinal McElroy of Washington is one of the strongest pro-homosexual infiltrators. He publicly defended Fiducia Supplicans and said U.S. opposition focused on homosexual blessings reflected “enduring animus” toward homosexuals. His Archdiocese of Washington spans Washington, D.C., and surrounding Maryland communities, placing its bishops in regular contact with policymakers, diplomats and national media. With Menjivar, Boxie and Studniewski, Leo XIV has again reinforced a leadership group …Has köp
An immigrant from El Salvador was chosen to be the shepherd of a state (West Virginia) with the lowest percentage of Spanish speakers in the country (less than 1.5%).
Being a “critic” of DJT is a good thing….a very good thing. These newly appointed Bishops may have other dire issues but in this area they’re right on target.
Epstein survivor says girls at Epstein's Zorro Ranch would wake up in a dark room with a female doctor standing over them, feeling as if there had just been a procedure done on them. Survivor Chauntae Davies says there was a hunt for the "perfect gene pool." "There's something in there about a baby actually being born and then just disappearing..." "I do remember overhearing conversations about trying to create the perfect baby, the perfect gene pool..."
Los oscuros secretos del rancho de Epstein en Nuevo México salen a la luz y lo peor está por venir Hasta ahora, Zorro Ranch, en el alto desierto al sur de Santa Fe, había permanecido como un extraño punto ciego no solo en la intensa cobertura mediática sobre Jeffrey Epstein y sus crímenes, sino también en las investigaciones de las autoridades. Pero eso está cambiando. En un episodio del programa 60 Minutes Australia, Melanie Stansbury, de Nuevo México, afirmó que una presunta víctima que recibió una invitación a una fiesta en el rancho había descrito cómo “varios jóvenes... fueron violados en el rancho delante de él después de que lo drogaron”. Los testimonios recopilados en el documental emitido el domingo se dieron a conocer mientras las autoridades estatales trabajan en la investigación reabierta sobre las denuncias de abusos en el complejo.

When the disciples had spoken to Heli of Hebron, the latter went back into the house by the court, but they turned to the right, and hastened down the north side of the hill, through Sion. They passed over a bridge, and walking along a road covered with brambles, reached the other side of the ravine, which was in front of the Temple, and of the row of houses which were to the south of that building. There stood the house of the aged Simeon, who died in the Temple after the presentation of our Lord; and his sons, some of whom were disciples of Jesus in secret, were actually living there. The Apostles spoke to one of them, a tall …Has köp
" The cup was pear-shaped, massive, dark-coloured, and highly polished, with gold ornaments, and two small handles by which it could be lifted. The foot was of virgin gold, elaborately worked, ornamented with a serpent and a small bunch of grapes, and enriched with precious stones."
Meditation IV ~ The Chalice used at the Last Supper The chalice which the Apostles brought from Veronica’s house was wonderful and mysterious in its appearance. It had been kept a long time in the Temple among other precious objects of great antiquity, the use and origin of which had been forgotten. The same has been in some degree the case in the Christian Church, where many consecrated jewels have been forgotten and fallen into disuse with time. Ancient vases and jewels, buried beneath the Temple, had often been dug up, sold, or reset. Thus it was that, by God’s permission, this holy vessel, which none had ever been able to melt down on account of its being made of some unknown material, and which had been found by the priests in the treasury of the Temple among other objects no longer made use of, had been sold to some antiquaries. It was bought by Seraphia /Saint Veronica/, was several times made use of by Jesus in the celebration of festivals, and, from the day of the Last Supper …Has köp
Despite originally being announced as one of the event’s featured attractions, Portuguese priest and DJ Guilherme Peixoto will no longer perform at the opening-night concert of Rouen’s 2026 Jeanne d’Arc celebrations on 14 May. The Archdiocese of Rouen, France, said that Padre Guilherme had requested to postpone his appearance. This followed public criticism of his inclusion in the festival programme. Critics questioned the appropriateness of a priest performing electronic music during celebrations dedicated to Joan of Arc. He will be replaced by French DJ Charles B, who will be accompanied by a local opening act. Unlike Padre Guilherme, the replacement performers are not clergy and their performance is not framed by religion. Picture: Padre Guilherme, #newsJkmrzqlodl
Home » Architecture » Before and After: St. Frances Borgia in Cedarburg, Wisconsin Conrad Schmitt Studios have provided us with yet another 'before and after' project, this time coming out of the parish church of St. Francis Borgia in Cedarburg, Wisconsin. The present church building was originally constructed in the year 1870 and over the century it underwent at least two renovations; one around the mid-century period, and another following the Second Vatican Council. In the mid-century period it obtained a renovation which essentially modified the church's altars and decoration programme to something more akin to the fads and fashions of the twentieth century liturgical movement; what came in the latter part of the twentieth century was far more radical with decorative paintwork being white-washed over, altars stripped out, and the sanctuary ordering completely changed. That is the particular face of the church that constitutes what came immediately before the restorative works …
The United States Department of Justice released on April 30 a 548-page report on how the Biden administration targeted believing Christians, including traditional Catholics. The report concludes that the Biden administration “zealously pursued actions to limit Christians’ ability to act in accordance with their faith,” particularly those holding traditional biblical views on abortion, sexuality, and gender. Among the report’s findings is that the FBI’s Richmond Field Office treated traditional Catholics as potential extremists, including churches associated with the Priestly Fraternity of St. Pius X. The FBI expanded its scrutiny after interviewing Xavier Louis Lopez, a self-described “radical traditional Catholic Clerical Fascist” convicted of possessing destructive devices. Agents opened a formal law-enforcement “Guardian profile” on his church and interviewed his priest, despite the parish having no involvement in his crimes. Agents also tracked the priest’s jail visits to Lopez …Has köp
Donald Trump vs Léon XIV : heureuse polémique ktotv Parfois, si regrettable soit-elle, une polémique peut avoir des effets positifs. La récente opposition entre le président des Etats-Unis et le Pape est de celle-là. En critiquant avec une certaine brutalité le pape américain sur les réseaux sociaux, l'irascible Donald Trump a contribué à faire découvrir aux médias du monde entier la stature véritable de Léon XIV. Si l'actuel successeur de Pierre est un homme de nature plus réservée que son prédécesseur, il est aussi un pasteur d'âmes, qui annonce l'Evangile avec une calme obstination à temps et contretemps. Quitte à déplaire aux puissants. Et cela est une bonne chose. Une chronique avec le père Eric de Beukelaer.
Bishop Marian Eleganti wrote to Pope Leo XIV about widespread homosexuality among priests and its significance in the abuse crisis in the Church. He mentioned this on Marian-Eleganti.ch on April 24: "All church studies on abuse show a disproportionately high number of male victims. It does little good to turn a blind eye to this." He also drew attention to the numerous cases of sexual abuse occurring outside the Church, emphasising that society is primarily focused on and scandalised by those within the clergy. #newsZltfzndgfn
In one or another way, Prevost is part of the problem. So you should ask others that question. Perhaps at a session of an imperfect council that you should have convened a long time ago and still need to and should convene. The sooner the better.
Footage released by the Israeli police shows a man attacking a French nun in broad daylight on Mount Zion in Jerusalem on Tuesday. The nun, who is a researcher at the French Biblical and Archaeological School of Jerusalem, was thrown to the ground and sustained head injuries. A 36-year-old suspect was arrested on the same day.
