Good news! Finally the people can get help from the Russian soldiers. Ukraine (I Hope) will not try to prevent or kill them for helping the people as they have been.
Slovenian President Nataša Pirc Musar presented Pope Leo XIV with shoes made by Slovenian manufacturer Alpina during her Vatican visit on October 26. “They are very famous for their cross-country skiing shoes, and I also gave him some nice moccasins to wear in his leisure time,” she said, according to ACI Stampa. During their nearly 40-minute audience, Pirc Musar formally invited the Pope to visit Slovenia. She later said she understood he would find time to visit within the next two years, although no date was confirmed.

Dutch Bishop Rob Mutsaerts has challenged Cardinal Arthur Roche’s position on the original Latin Mass (VitaminExp.blogspot.com, October 24). Cardinal Roche had warned that some Catholic groups use the original liturgy to oppose Vatican II’s reforms and argued that Catholics should not attend exclusively the Mass. The auxiliary bishop of ’s-Hertogenbosch replied that attachment to the Roman liturgy cannot be equated with opposition to Church authority or rejection of Vatican II. The Church recognises numerous ancient liturgical traditions, including the Byzantine, Maronite, Armenian and Chaldean rites: “Why is almost every ancient Catholic liturgical tradition considered a treasure, except the ancient Roman liturgy?” Bishop Mutsaerts asked. The Church was not founded anew in 1965, he wrote. It remains the same Church that received the faith from the Apostles, produced the Church Fathers, built medieval cathedrals and held the Council of Trent. Bishop Mutsaerts also warned that postconciliar …Lebih
The Dangerous Deception Of Lukewarm Christianity St. Paul reminds us that we are children of light, called to live a holy life in Christ. However, many of us choose darkness over light, compromising with the world and giving in to sin. We must choose to live as children of light, allowing God’s grace to fill us and shine through us, or remain in darkness. Fr.

Uskup Belanda Rob Mutsaerts telah menentang pandangan Kardinal Arthur Roche mengenai Misa Latin asli (VitaminExp.blogspot.com, 24 Oktober). Kardinal Roche sebelumnya telah memperingatkan bahwa beberapa kelompok Katolik menggunakan liturgi asli untuk menentang reformasi Konsili Vatikan II dan berpendapat bahwa umat Katolik tidak boleh hanya menghadiri Misa tersebut. Uskup pembantu ’s-Hertogenbosch itu menjawab bahwa keterikatan pada liturgi Roma tidak dapat disamakan dengan penentangan terhadap otoritas Gereja atau penolakan terhadap Konsili Vatikan II. Gereja mengakui berbagai tradisi liturgi kuno, termasuk ritus Bizantium, Maronit, Armenia, dan Kaldea: “Mengapa hampir setiap tradisi liturgi Katolik kuno dianggap sebagai harta karun, kecuali liturgi Roma kuno?” tanya Uskup Mutsaerts. Gereja tidak didirikan kembali pada tahun 1965, tulisnya. Gereja ini tetaplah Gereja yang sama yang menerima iman dari para Rasul, melahirkan para Bapa Gereja, membangun katedral-katedral abad pertengahan,…Lebih

Alvarado mengisyaratkan perombakan di jajaran media Vatikan: “Para pelaku berada di posisi yang salah”. Bahkan sebelum menjabat, Montserrat Alvarado, calon prefek komunikasi Vatikan, telah mengisyaratkan kemungkinan perombakan terhadap struktur media Vatikan yang luas dalam sebuah wawancara dengan EWTN pada 23 Oktober. Dengan membandingkan media Vatikan dengan tim sepak bola, ia menyatakan: “Anda memiliki semua pemain [benarkah?], tetapi mereka berada di posisi yang salah.” “Jadi mungkin kita perlu merombak susunan, atau mungkin kita menemukan pendekatan yang berbeda,” tambahnya, sambil menganjurkan jurnalisme multiplatform dan pemanfaatan analisis audiens yang lebih luas. Pernyataannya tersebut mungkin terdengar tidak nyaman bagi pihak yang sudah lama dikritik karena biaya kepegawaian yang mahal, inefisiensi birokrasi, dan jangkauan yang terbatas.

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 …Lebih
They should distance themselves for they are fakes and their prayers are not heard . Why did they go there if they didn’t mean it? Hoping for more resettlement money?
"How dare those bishops pray with Trump!" Meanwhile... Pro-abortion Dems are given awards by 'catholic' dioceses. Oh, and some bishops are telling their 'faithful' to make sure to vote blue! Cuz the poor & refugees and stuff.
Para uskup yang mendoakan Presiden Donald Trump di Ruang Oval pada 22 Oktober kini menjauhkan diri dari peristiwa tersebut, menuduh Gedung Putih memanfaatkan doa mereka untuk tujuan politik hanya dua belas hari menjelang pemilihan sela. Uskup Agung Denver James Golka, yang memimpin doa tersebut, membantah mendukung Trump atau Partai Republik. Ia mengatakan para uskup tidak mengizinkan publikasi rekaman tersebut dan mengungkapkan kesedihannya karena tindakan suci itu telah dimanipulasi. Uskup Agung Milwaukee Jeffrey Grob secara terbuka meminta maaf, sambil menyatakan penyesalannya karena telah mengabaikan keraguannya. Uskup Des Moines William Joensen mengakui bahwa ia telah bersikap naif dan menuduh pihak lain melakukan eksploitasi partisan. Para uskup mengatakan bahwa mereka mengharapkan diskusi tertutup mengenai imigrasi, visa pekerja keagamaan, martabat manusia, dan pendidikan. Sebaliknya, mereka diarahkan untuk berdiri di belakang Trump untuk berdoa. Pertemuan tersebut diatur dengan …Lebih
Una Voce menjelaskan alasan mengapa para peziarah Misa Latin Tradisional dilarang masuk ke Basilika Santo Petrus. Federasi Internasional Una Voce (FIUV) hari ini mengeluarkan pernyataan untuk meluruskan kesalahpahaman seputar Ziarah Summorum Pontificum ke Roma tahun ini. Menurut FIUV, Sekretariat Negara Vatikan menolak permintaan panitia untuk merayakan Misa Latin tradisional di Basilika Santo Petrus pada bulan Agustus. Para penyelenggara kemudian meminta izin untuk mengadakan devosi bersama di dalam Basilika, sebagaimana telah diizinkan pada tahun 2023 dan 2024 meskipun permohonan untuk Misa ditolak. Permohonan tersebut juga ditolak melalui surat tertanggal 30 September, yang baru diterima oleh panitia pada bulan Oktober. Dengan demikian, para peziarah tidak hanya ditolak untuk mengikuti Misa di Basilika Santo Petrus, tetapi juga izin untuk doa bersama yang terorganisir di dalam Basilika. Sementara itu, izin diberikan untuk Misa Rendah Kepausan di Basilika Santa Maria Maggiore. Una Voce …Lebih
Una Voce clarifies why traditional Latin Mass pilgrims were denied access to St. Peter’s Basilica. The International Federation Una Voce (FIUV) has issued today a statement correcting misunderstandings surrounding this year’s Summorum Pontificum Pilgrimage to Rome. According to FIUV, the Vatican Secretariat of State rejected the organizers’ request to celebrate the traditional Latin Mass in St. Peter’s Basilica in August. The organizers then sought permission for a collective devotion inside the Basilica, as had been permitted in 2023 and 2024 despite the refusal of Mass. That request was also rejected in a letter dated September 30, which reached the organizers only in October. Thus, pilgrims were denied not only Mass in St. Peter’s, but also permission for organized communal prayer inside the Basilica. Meanwhile, permission was granted for a Pontifical Low Mass at the Basilica of St. Mary Major. Una Voce thanked the Cardinal Archpriest, sacristans, security personnel, and Dominican …Lebih
Full statement “Many members and supporters take part in the pilgrimage and we as an organisation are a member of the Caetus Internationalis Summorum Pontificum; we regard the annual pilgrimage as having great significance for the movement for the Traditional Mass. We would like to correct some misunderstandings which have arisen over the organisation of the pilgrimage this year. The authorities (through the Secretariat of State) declined the Coetus’ request for the celebration of Mass in St Peter’s, in August. At that point it was hoped and assumed that it would nevertheless be possible to have a collective devotion of some kind for the pilgrims, in St Peter’s, as happened in 2023 and 2024 when permission for Mass was refused. The August letter did not rule this out, so the Coetus requested it. This request was refused in a letter dated 30th September, which was however not received by the organisers until well into October. In the meantime permission was sought and gained for a Prelatial …Lebih
The Letter from the Secretary of State shows the Ad Petri Sedem procession was refused entry to St Peter’s on 30 September, weeks before the event, yet pilgrims were only told the day before. However the Saint Peter's Sacristy had indicated 1 pm was feasible; Secretariat of State still blocked it.
Leo XIV dilaporkan akan menjalani imunoterapi kanker selama tiga tahun, meskipun sebelumnya Vatikan telah mengeluarkan pernyataan yang bertentangan. Paus Leo XIV akan menjalani imunoterapi pencegahan dengan pembrolizumab selama setidaknya tiga tahun untuk mengurangi risiko kambuhnya kanker, demikian dilaporkan jurnalis Mirticeli Medeiros dari GloboNews pada 23 Oktober. Ia mengutip sumber-sumber di Rumah Sakit Gemelli, Roma. Paus tidak akan menjalani kemoterapi atau radioterapi. Laporan tersebut bertentangan dengan pernyataan resmi yang dikeluarkan hanya dua hari sebelumnya. Pada 21 Oktober, Kantor Pers Tahta Suci mengumumkan bahwa para dokter Paus telah menyimpulkan bahwa tidak diperlukan perawatan lebih lanjut setelah operasi kanker paru-parunya. Para ahli bedah mengangkat lobus bawah paru-paru kanan Paus selama operasi pada 13 Oktober. Menurut Medeiros, tumor tersebut berukuran 2,5 sentimeter dan hasil tesnya positif untuk PD-L1, sebuah protein yang dapat membantu sel-sel kanker …Lebih
