Gänswein avoids answering question about the traditional Latin Mass. During an October 17 interview on Twitch.tv, Archbishop Georg Gänswein was asked whether the more liberal German Church could learn from growing interest in Catholicism among young people in France and the US. The interviewer specifically mentioned the “Mass according to old rites” as a possible reason for success there. Gänswein did not directly address the old Mass. Instead, he said young people are “searching for answers” and finding “nourishment” in the Gospel and the Church’s message. He stressed that faith is not merely “something I have intellectually in my head.” What matters, he said, is a relationship with “the person who is essential to Christianity, namely Jesus Christ.”
Frage an Gänswein: Bewegt die jüngere Generation so etwas wie die Messe in alten Riten? Wäre das – nach dem Vorbild von Frankreich und den USA – ein Erfolgsmodell für Deutschland?

European political elites are deliberately organizing Muslim immigration: “These are generally not refugees, but deliberately orchestrated and organized measures by European political elites to bring a Muslim population into Europe.”
Bishops have been promoting the Islamization of Europe for decades under the pretext of charity, Bishop Athanasius Schneider told Gloria.tv (German video below). He accused these bishops of “cowardice” for failing to profess their Christian and Catholic identity. According to Schneider, European political elites are deliberately organizing Muslim immigration: “These are generally not refugees, but deliberately orchestrated and organized measures by European political elites to bring a Muslim population into Europe.” Schneider described Islam as “totalitarian” and “anti-Christian.” Building large mosques amounts to propaganda for a religion that is not willed by God. Bishop Schneider also condemned interreligious dialogue, as exemplified by the 2019 Abu Dhabi Document, as “a betrayal of the mission of the Gospel, which God Himself, Jesus Christ, entrusted to us.” Schneider criticized the practice of placing all religions on an equal footing, even visually, as though one could “choose a …Hafa
SAINT PETER OF ALCANTARA - October 19 Priest (1499-1562) In his youth, St. Peter left his home in Alcantara, Spain, and entered a monastery of Discalced Franciscans. He was quickly promoted, but his thirst for penance was unappeased. In 1539, at 40 years old, he founded the first monastery of the Strict Observance. The friars' cells were simple and rustic. St. Peter's cell was only four and a half feet long. He often fasted and sometimes ate just once in three days. In the winter, he opened his cell's windows to feel some sensation of warmth. All of his penances were for the salvation of souls. Among those St. Peter trained to perfection was St. Teresa of Avila, a doctor of the Church. He read her soul, approved her spirit of prayer and encouraged her reforms. He passed away on October 18, 1562. He intercedes by giving our prayers to God with perfect faith. He is the patron saint of Brazil, Eucharistic adoration and night watchmen. Lives of the Saints, by Alban Butler, Benziger Bros. ed …Hafa
Saint Peter of Alcantara - October 19 breski1 Franciscan Priest, Reformer (1499-1562 Saint Peter was born in 1499 near the Portuguese border of Spain. While still a youth of sixteen, he left his home at Alcantara and entered a convent of Discalced Franciscans near Valencia. He rose quickly to high posts in the Order, as a guardian, a definitor, and then Superior of the Province of Saint Gabriel. But his thirst for penance was still unappeased, and in 1539, being then forty years old, he founded the Congregation of Saint Joseph of the Strict Observance, to conserve the letter of the Rule of Saint Francis. He suffered great tribulations to conserve that Rule in its integrity. Eventually Saint Peter himself, the year before his death, raised it to the status of a province under obedience to the Minister General of the entire Seraphic Order. The Reform he instituted has since been extended even to the farthest Orient and the Indies; it is believed God ordained that it repair the ravages to …Hafa
Former Mossad Officer Describes False-Flag Scenario for Gaza In an October 2025 interview, former Mossad officer Avner Avraham openly describes a scenario in which "our people" could fire missiles from inside Gaza, have them blamed on Gaza, and then use the attack as justification for renewed Israeli strikes. When asked whether that was actually possible, Avraham replied, "Everything is possible," before saying, "We are going to erase Gaza." The remarks came during Episode 12 of The Unfiltered View with Israel Ellis, published October 3, 2025. theAxisofTruth
Catholic Charities and Lutheran Social Services received at least $62 million in federal funding to resettle an estimated 29,000 Somali refugees in Minnesota since 1993. New York Post reports that faith-based agencies received approximately $2,500 per refugee to cover initial housing, food, and social services. Minnesota’s Somali population has since grown to more than 100,000, the largest in the United States. Separately, the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops received $140 million in federal contracts nationwide since 2021 for refugee and migrant resettlement services, including housing assistance, basic necessities, and integration support.

JUST FOR YOU SO YOU NEVER FORGET. I'll start with Syria when the US and Israel had their hand in more misery for another country. When the Muslims and Catholics were being murdered, where did most go to escape it all? THE RUSSIAN BASE! Who helped a Catholic home run by Catholic Nuns who couldn't leave because they were caring for the elderly and sick? RUSSIA DID! Courtesy of Putin! It wasn't America, UK or any other country that helped them. It was Putin! Sent them plenty of aid. Food, water, medical supplies and oil! We can't forget when Traditional Catholics were being persecuted in the US, they had no where to go as most of Europe is also destroying the Faith and Catholics being persecuted, Church's burning down. SO THEY RAN TO RUSSIA! What did Putin do? He not only accepted them, he encouraged more to come to Russia. He made the laws more lenient for them to come and to stay. As long as they followed the laws. In the beginning he gave them all free land. Every last one of them are …Hafa

‘Pope Innocent III. …’ – ‘Purgatory’ by Rev. Shouppe; 1929; Chapter XXIII; p. 72-74, part II Chapter XXIII ~ Duration of Purgatory — The Cistercian Abbot and Pope Innocent III. — -John de Lierre. Aside from this, considering the event in itself, can we find any good reason for calling it into question ? Do we not know that God makes no exception of persons — that the Popes appear before His tribunal like the humblest of the faithful — that all the great and the lowly are equal before Him, and that each one receives according to his works? Do we not know that those who govern others have a great responsibility, and will have to render a severe account? Judicium durissimum his qui prcesunt fiet — "A most severe judgment shall be for them that bear rule."1 It is the Holy Ghost that declares it. Now, Innocent III. reigned for eighteen years, and during most turbulent times ; and, add the Bollandists, is it not written that the judgments of God are inscrutable, and often very different from …Hafa
Three different colors of the robes and what they mean ~ " I am no more of this world," he replied, "and I come here only in fulfilment of my promise." At these words Lutgarda fell on her knees and remained for some time quite confounded. Then, raising her eyes to her blessed friend, " Why," said she, " are you clothed in such splendour? What does this triple robe signify with which I see you adorned ? " " The white garment," he replied, " signifies virginal purity, which I have always preserved; the red tunic implies the labours and sufferings which have prematurely exhausted my strength ; and the blue mantle, which covers all, denotes the perfection of the spiritual life." Having said these words, he sud- denly left Lutgarda, who remained divided between regret for having lost so good a Father, and the joy she experienced on account of his happiness."
"Pope Innocent III. died July 16, 1216. The same day he appeared to St. Lutgarda in her monastery at Aywieres, in Brabant. Surprised to see a spectre enveloped in flames, she asked who he was and what he wanted. "I am Pope Innocent," he replied. "Is it possible that you, our common Father, should be in such a state ? " " It is but too true. I am expiating three faults which might have caused my eternal perdition. Thanks to the Blessed Virgin Mary, I have obtained pardon for them, but I have to make atonement. Alas! it is terrible; and it will last for centuries if you do not come to my assistance. In the name of Mary, who has obtained for me the favour of appealing to you, help me." With these words he disappeared."
