Two women will jointly lead the Catholic Deanery of Bremen-Nord, Hildesheim Diocese, for the first time, marking a historic shift in church leadership. The decision was announced on July 21. Ute Zeilmann is a theologian and will oversee pastoral ministry and the pastoral staff. Agnes Dobrzynski will lead administration. Both have worked in the Bremen-Nord deanery for several years. To meet canonical requirements, Rev Johannes Pawellek will act as moderating priest, accompanying the new leadership team after his retirement in November 2026. The pastoral team will also be joined by Rev Pradyut Bahla, an Indian priest currently pursuing doctoral studies in Frankfurt. He will serve in Bremen-Nord for five years. The two women want “to embrace the global Church's call to synodality: leading together, listening to the Holy Spirit, and moving away from isolated leadership decisions”. The Diocese of Hildesheim was led by pro-homosexual Bishop Heiner Wilmer until June 2026. He was promoted by …ಇನ್ನಷ್ಟು
Vatican News Documentary Back Online After Copyright Dispute: The Vatican News documentary about Pope Leo XIV has been restored on YouTube after being unavailable for approximately three days. The documentary was blocked following a copyright claim by RAI. RAI later issued a public statement about the incident, saying the interruption lasted only "a few hours" and that the material used in the documentary had been properly requested and licensed. During the period the documentary was unavailable, the Dicastery for Communication did not issue a public statement about the outage. SilereNonPossum.com argues that RAI's statement was intended to protect the Vatican's communications office.
Several German Catholic dioceses have told De.CatholicNewsAgency.com on July 21 that they have no plans to expand the celebration of the Mass in the Roman rite. The dioceses that replied included the three "conservative" German dioceses Passau, Regensburg, and Cologne and the pro-homosexual Archdiocese of Hamburg. Passau and Cologne offered only brief responses, confirming that no expansion of the Traditional Latin Mass is currently planned. Regensburg Diocese, where the Priestly Fraternity of St. Pius X (FSSPX) operates a seminary, provided a more detailed explanation of its position: "A sufficient number of opportunities to celebrate Holy Mass in the Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite is an important pastoral response to the sometimes aggressive missionary activity of the Society of St. Pius X and its supporters," diocesan spokesman Stefan Groß said. He added that the FSSPX continues to refuse full communion with the Pope, particularly regarding its understanding of religious freedom …ಇನ್ನಷ್ಟು

Vance Praises Francis as "Genius": In a recent interview with Bishop Robert Barron, U.S. Vice President JD Vance praised Pope Francis, saying: "I always liked the way Pope Francis would make bold statements in the media because it forced people to talk about them. Sometimes he would say things that made me think, 'Wait a second, is that consistent or correct?'" However, the politician concluded that Francis had "forced a dialogue, and he was kind of a genius at that".
U.S. Vice President JD Vance praised Pope Francis in a recent interview with Bishop Robert Barron for being a “kind of genius” at forcing conversation with rhetorical “bombs.”
Virgin Mary Statue Survives Earthquake: A statue of the Virgin Mary remained unharmed after a 5.1-magnitude earthquake devastated the 16th-century Santiago Apóstol Parish church in Chupaca on the night of July 18. The quake caused the church's roof, façade, and altars to collapse, but the Marian statue was found intact amid the rubble. "A large part of the church nave has collapsed", Father Henry Díaz told Rotafono, adding: "The high altar collapsed into the rubble. The statue of the Virgin remains intact."
A 5.1-magnitude earthquake struck Peru's Junín region on July 18, killing at least five people, injuring more than 20, and causing widespread damage. The historic Santiago Apóstol Parish in Chongos Bajo was among the hardest hit, with its roof, façade, and centuries-old altars collapsing. Father Henry Díaz said much of the church nave gave way, deep cracks spread through the walls, and the bell tower is now dangerously unstable. Amid the destruction, however, a statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary remained standing untouched, which Father Díaz described as a powerful sign of hope. Peru's Catholic bishops have offered prayers and are appealing for support to restore the historic parish.
Excellenz haben offensichtlich keine Ahnung vom Protestantismus, und weiß offensichtlich nicht, dass sein geliebter Papst Franziskus eine Lutherstatue im Vatikan aufgestellt ihn als großartig bezeichnet hat und den Ketzer noch kanonisieren wollte; na vielleicht erfüllt ihm sein Nachfolger seinen Wunsch.
Pornographers-influencers Andrew and Tristan Tate - former webcam entrepreneurs turned pornographers-influencers – were arrested in Miami on July 18 following a provisional extradition request from the United Kingdom. The brothers also remain under criminal investigation in Romania. Allegations include human trafficking, rape, money laundering, and witness tampering. They face a total of 59 charges authorized by the UK's Crown Prosecution Service. They are British-American but have lived in Romania for years. Romanian prosecutors lifted the brothers' travel restrictions in February 2025, allowing them to leave the country. Later that month, they traveled to Florida by private jet. In March, Andrew Tate's then-girlfriend, Brianna Stern, filed a civil lawsuit alleging that he assaulted her at the Beverly Hills Hotel in Los Angeles, accusing him of choking her nearly to unconsciousness, beating her, and threatening to kill her. Tate has denied the allegations. The Tates were in Miami to …ಇನ್ನಷ್ಟು

“The community was only informed today. We had been asked to keep it under the strictest secrecy. That made the visit all the more beautiful, because it was simpler and more intimate, like a father coming to visit his children”, said the Abbot. Pope Leo at Montecassino Abbey
The spiritual dissonance with what St. Benedict and his sister St Scholastica believed and how they worshipped, and what Prevost and Bergoglio appear to 'envision' for the Church (in the shadow of 'friends, no matter how heretical, need not worry' excommunications) is so stark so as to be farcical if it wasn't so tragic.
A new study of Catholic contemplative monasteries has found that 91 monasteries have closed in France over the past two decades, representing nearly one-third of the country's contemplative houses. The findings come from French sociologist Isabelle Jonveaux, a specialist in monastic life at the University of Fribourg (Switzerland), whose research was published by LaVie.fr on July 21. Several well-known monasteries have already announced their closure for 2026, including La Grande Trappe of Soligny (Orne), the Carmel of Compiègne (Oise), and Notre-Dame du Port-du-Salut (Mayenne). According to the study, nearly 30% of France's contemplative monasteries have disappeared since 2007. Women's communities have been affected more severely than men's, with 32% of women's monasteries closing compared with 21% of men's. The pace of closures has also accelerated. Until around 2015, France averaged fewer than four monastery closures per year. Today, the figure is close to ten annually. Among religious …ಇನ್ನಷ್ಟು

On Tuesday, a woman in her 50s was seriously injured after being stabbed during the morning Rosary at Holy Cross Church in Tramore, Co. Waterford, Ireland. The attack occurred at around 9:45 a.m., shortly before the church's 10 a.m. Mass. Parishioners quickly intervened and alerted emergency services. The victim was taken to hospital with serious but non-life-threatening injuries. Police arrested an Irish man in his 30s at a nearby house. According to Irish reports, the suspect was not known to the victim but was known to police. The parish priest, Fr. Richard O'Halloran, described the attack as "random in nature." "It has been a very shocking event," Fr. O'Halloran said. "The people and my colleague who was there at the time responded wonderfully well. All the emergency services were called, and they looked after everything." In a statement, the Diocese of Waterford and Lismore said it was "deeply shocked" by the violence. #newsPkskyldybf

That's what you call a follower. Always wants to be part of the crowd and fit in. With a weak mind who can't think, for themselves and to avoid problems with them. That's a real pity. The only time you would ever see me following anyone was when I couldn't talk my friends out of something. So I would go to watch over them to try and stop any problems or protecting them. A friend of over 60 years just mentioned that to me last night in an email.
