Christians of all denominations now make up less than two per cent of the population of the Holy Land, Benedictine Abbot Nikodemus Schnabel told Aid to the Church in Need on 29 April. “My concern is that the Holy Land could become a kind of Christian Disneyland,” he said. He warned that while the holy sites may remain, the region could lose its indigenous Christian communities, leaving places central to Christianity without ordinary Christian family life. He said that economic hardship was a major driver of emigration and noted that many local Christians depended on tourism, which had struggled since 2019 due to the pandemic and regional conflict. “People are leaving because they see no future,” he said. #newsPgoaemvkjx
" He warned that while the holy sites may remain, the region could lose its indigenous Christian communities, leaving places central to Christianity without ordinary Christian family life." --- Oh, it is quite common in the post-conciliar revolution and nobody seems to bother.
This is one of the unknown miracles of the Tilma of Guadalupe: The stars on her mantle aren't decoration, they are a music. The stars on the image of Our Lady of Guadalupe perfectly align with the constellations over Mexico on December 12, 1531. The stars are arranged in emmission (as if viewed from outside the solar system, looking toward Earth) rather than reflection (as seen from Earth's surface looking up). But there is a hidden code. If you take the position of the stars and the flowers on her dress and place them on a musical staff, they create a perfect, harmonious melody. It is literally a song from Heaven. Listen:

Agreed! Democrats ARE brainwashed... Any Catholic voting democrat at any moment in their lives, needs to repent of all the babies murdered by the abortion democrat machine they voted for. Anyone who is for abortion is an enemy of God.

25 New Million-Dollar Donors: On 2 May, Leo XIV held his first audience with The Papal Foundation, an American Catholic philanthropy group. Since his election, the foundation claims to have added 25 new steward families, each of which has contributed at least $1 million. In the previous two years combined, there were only 13 new donors. Over its 38-year history, the Foundation has donated more than $270 million to papal charitable projects.
Staff Writer May 4, 2026 News Two years after the Archdiocese of Los Angeles reached an $880 million settlement with men and women who survived childhood sexual abuse at the hands of Roman Catholic priests and clergy in their diocese, the Catholic Archdiocese of New York is following suit, agreeing to pay more than $800 million to its own sexual abuse survivors. So far, the Catholic Church has paid out more than $5 billion in settlements, which has bankrupted at least 19 dioceses. The archdiocese has been planning this for a while. Along with selling off buildings and laying off staff, including the sale of their New York headquarters for $100 million, the Archdiocese is suing its insurance company, Chubb. The archdiocese claims that “even though we have paid them over $2 billion in premiums by today’s standards, [Chubb] is now attempting to evade their legal and moral contractual obligation to settle covered claims which would bring peace and healing to victim-survivors.” Chubb …
A newly emerged letter from pro-homosexual Cardinal Tucho Fernández, soft-porn author and Prefect of the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith, has revealed that he warned the German bishops in 2024 against proceeding with their proposed homosexual blessings. Dated 18 November 2024, the letter was addressed to Bishop Stephan Ackermann of Trier, who is responsible for liturgy. It was published today on X.com by Mexican priest Jorge Enrique Mújica, head of Zenit.org. In the letter, Tucho states that the German bishops’ proposed guidelines for blessings “effectively legitimise the status of such couples” and therefore contradict his homosexual pamphlet Fiducia Supplicans. He also criticises the German text for creating what amounts to “a kind of liturgy or para-liturgy” for homosexual blessings. Specifically, Tucho rejected: • the treatment of homosexual unions as a status to be publicly recognised, • the inclusion of ritual elements resembling marriage ceremonies, • prescribed …ပိုမို

May 2nd - Saint of the Day: Saint Antoninus of Florence, Archbishop & Dominican Friar Florence had wealth, power, politics, status, and scandal. Then came Saint Antoninus. A tiny Dominican friar with a giant soul, he became Archbishop of Florence and refused to live like a prince. He wore the Dominican habit, cared for plague victims, reformed corrupt clergy, challenged greed, and quietly helped the “hidden poor” who were too ashamed to beg. He was so wise that people called him the “Angel of Counsel.” Princes, priests, merchants, and ordinary Catholics came to him when life got morally messy. And his whole life can be summed up in one line: “To serve God is to reign.” That hits different in a world obsessed with clout, comfort, and control. Saint Antoninus reminds us that real power is holiness. Real leadership is service. Real wealth is mercy. And real freedom begins when God gets the throne back.

Sant' Antonino Pierozzi (di Firenze) Vescovo - Festa: 2 maggio Firenze, 1389 - 2 maggio 1459 Fu domenicano a quindici anni e, divenuto sacerdote, fu priore a Cortona, a Fiesole, a Roma, a Napoli, ricoprendo nel frattempo la carica di Vicario generale dei Frati Riformati. Fondò la Societrà dei Buonomini di San Martino per i poveri bisognosi. Divenne arcivescovo di Firenze prodigandosi durante la peste. All’attività apostolica e agli incarichi di cui era gravato, unì un intenso studio e la realizzazione di opere che ebbero carattere giuridico-morale. Egli fu il primo a tentare una sintesi tra il diritto e la teologia, raccogliendo quanto riteneva utile al ministero della predicazione, della confessione e della direzione, per offrire una soluzione cristiana ai molti problemi del suo tempo. Etimologia: Antonino (come Antonio) = nato prima, o che fa fronte ai suoi avversari, dal gre Emblema: Bastone pastorale, Portamonete Martirologio Romano: A Firenze, sant’Antonino, vescovo, che, dopo …ပိုမို

Co-produced with glyphosate. Another collaboration reminiscent of agent orange in Vietnam and Monsanto. A look into the inner workings of non-Catholic "just war" theology. When the west and Saddam used chemical weapons against Iran in the 1980's, Iran never retaliated in kind.
Meanwhile, The Tablet magazine reported May 4 that Pezzi had addressed the circumstances of his resignation at a Mass on the day of the announcement. The archbishop reportedly said that, “to make it clear and not spread any conspiracy theories or incorrect rumors, I want to announce that I have resigned because of my health, which does not allow me to manage this beloved, beautiful diocese as I should.”
Maxpein @maximumpain333 Scientists hooked electrodes up to Tibetan monks during deep meditation — expecting to see relaxed, quiet brain activity. What they recorded instead stopped them cold. Gamma waves. At amplitudes never measured in any normal human brain before. Levels so high that researchers hadn't even considered them possible to sustain in a conscious person. These monks weren't just calm. Their brains were operating on a frequency that didn't exist in scientific literature until that moment. But here's the part that should make you stop scrolling. These monks weren't doing anything new. The practices they were using — the specific meditation techniques, the concentrated attention, the precise mental training — were thousands of years old. Passed down through lineages that stretch back further than most recorded history. Tibetan Buddhist traditions had been deliberately training the mind this way for centuries before a single neuroscientist existed on this planet. They didn't …ပိုမို

Guadix s'anime au printemps début mai, célébrant les traditionnelles Croix de Mai. Cours des palais, places et charmants recoins des différents quartiers de la ville se parent alors de croix colorées. Durant ces jours de fête, les « chavicos », répliques miniatures des chars processionnels de la Semaine Sainte de Guadix, confectionnés par des groupes d'enfants et accompagnés par la musique des clairons et des tambours, sont portés à dos d'enfant dans les rues de la ville.
Diana PATRIOTS ARE UNITED @DianaT192 CHOLESTEROL WAS NEVER THE ENEMY. IT WAS THE RESCUE TEAM. For 60 years, you have been told that cholesterol clogs your arteries and causes heart attacks. You have been told to avoid eggs, butter, and red meat. You have been put on statin drugs that generate $29 billion per year in global sales. Every word of it was a lie built on one fraudulent study. In 1958, a physiologist named Ancel Keys published the Seven Countries Study. He claimed to prove that dietary fat and cholesterol caused heart disease. What he did not tell you is that he had data from 22 countries. He deliberately excluded the 15 countries that contradicted his theory. The countries with the highest fat consumption and the lowest heart disease were thrown out. He hand-picked the data to match his conclusion. And the entire Western medical system built its dietary guidelines on that fraud. Here is what cholesterol actually does. It is the raw material your body uses to produce every …ပိုမို
This is accurate. A big factor in the epidemic of Alzheimer's. An early appreciation of this fraud in my career helped prepare me for the COVID fraud. Another capitalization scheme were created money is used to setup profit from fraud. Again, nothing to do with free markets.
