Brian Williams on Twitter: Meanwhile in Charlotte, Bishop Martin delegated the washing of feet on Holy Thursday to lay men and women. +Martin did participate to some degree, but at this Jesuit parish where he chose to celebrate Holy Thursday, the laity assumed the role of the clergy for much of the (optional) mandatum.
Pope Leo leads Way of the Cross at the Colosseum| Shalom World News In a powerful and deeply symbolic gesture, Pope Leo added to this year’s Good Friday observance a living testimony of his own faith. At Rome’s Colosseum, he did more than preside— the 70-year-old pontiff carried the Cross himself through every station of the Via Crucis, marking a rare and historic departure from recent papal practice. This marks the first time in decades that a pope carried the cross to every station. His predecessors, Benedict XVI and John Paul II, bore the Cross only briefly, while Francis, in later years, watched from a distance due to frailty. As thousands gathered beneath the dark Roman sky, candlelight flickered against ancient stone, illuminating a scene both solemn and stirring. With each step, the Pope’s quiet endurance echoed the Passion itself—each movement heavy with prayer, each pause steeped in meaning. In that sacred silence, the act became more than remembrance. It became an encounter …เพิ่มเติม
By their fruits you shall know them. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? McGovern thinks that Putin is trying to talk sense into trump. With Putin giving him the real cold Turkey saying, we can't let this go on so that Israel is destroyed and has no other option than to use nukes. It's always President Putin who tries to restore and make peace. This is why Russia is so Blessed. And why some hate the fact Putin was not involved in the epstein files as they had hoped. I lost count this year alone on how many times President Putin and Russia was rewarded for helping out others. No matter how much some try to make us hate Russia or Putin, the facts always speak louder than words. And they just can't handle that. By their fruits you shall know them. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
Our Lady narrates. “Now listen to Me, dear child: you must know that after the death of my Son I withdrew in the cenacle, together with beloved John and Magdalene. But my Heart was pierced because only John was near Me, and in my sorrow I said: "And the other Apostles - where are they?" But as they heard that Jesus had died, touched by special graces, all moved and weeping, one by one, the fugitives drew around Me, surrounding Me like a crown; and with tears and sighs, they asked for my forgiveness for they had so cravenly abandoned their Master, and had run away from Him. I welcomed them maternally in the ark of refuge and salvation of my Heart; I assured all of them of the forgiveness of my Son, and I encouraged them not to fear. I said to them that their destiny was in my hands, because He had given them all to Me as my children, and I recognized them as such. Blessed child, you know that I was present at the Resurrection of my Son. But I did not say a word to anyone, waiting for …เพิ่มเติม
Arzobispo Primado de Colombia, monseñor Luis José Rueda, lavó los pies a un grupo de personas de la comunidad trans y de mujeres trabajadoras sexuales en el barrio Santa Fe, zona de tolerancia de Bogotá
We are on the same page dear cardinal. So, now please abolish novus ordo. For ever.
«L’Église a abimé la liturgie de la messe. Elle est trop bruyante ! C’est comme si on se célébrait nous-même. C’est devenu un moment convivial, alors que nous sommes là pour adorer Dieu, il faut une liturgie qui adore Dieu. On ne parle plus du salut et de l’âme !», se désole le cardinal Robert Sarah dans Le Club Le Figaro
World Christian Community Jeremiah James Strange Trumpet Sounds Heard Around the World… No One Has an Answer.... People from multiple countries have recorded these eerie sounds coming from the sky. Scientists struggle to explain it… yet many say it sounds exactly like something described in Scripture. What do YOU think is happening? Have you ever heard anything like this before? …
First remember, it was trump who called Putin 3 weeks ago for help out of the mess he made. Yet didn't listen to him. Now they are turning to Putin to help end this madness that trump and bibi made. Unfortunately, not even Putin can stop this. That is not what GOD wants. That is not His Will for peace. Not our time. ------------- As the U.S.-Israel military campaign against Iran intensifies into a full regional crisis, Gulf and Arab capitals have abandoned Washington as their diplomatic anchor and are converging on Moscow — with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, Egyptian Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty, and leaders from the UAE, Oman, and Turkey all reaching directly to Vladimir Putin in an unprecedented geopolitical realignment. Putin, positioning Russia as the region's sole credible stabilizer, has formally opened what the Kremlin is calling a coordinated mediation track — with spokesperson Dmitry Peskov confirming Russia stands ready to make its "strongest contribution" to …เพิ่มเติม
Why I never understood the Benedict resignation: "Our Apostles also knew, through our Lord Jesus Christ, that there would be contention over the bishop's office. So, for this cause, having received complete foreknowledge, they appointed the above mentioned men, and afterwards gave them a permanent character, so that, AS THEY DIED, other approved men should succeed to their ministry." Saint Clement, Bishop of Rome, Letter to the Corinthians, Chapter 44. First Century
This morning Isaac Herzog, the President of Israel, called Pope Leo XIV, and they spoke on the telephone. They exchanged greetings for Passover and Easter. They discussed the current situation in the ongoing conflict in the Middle East.
Catholics do not celebrate Passover. Jesus Christ fulfilled the Old Law regarding Passover. To exchange greetings about Passover is to deny Christ's establishment of the Holy Eucharist and His death on the cross! Shame on those people!
Donald Tusk & @donaldtusk The threat of NATO's break-up, easing sanctions on Russia, a massive energy crisis in Europe, halting aid for Ukraine and blocking the loan for Kviv bv Orbán - it all looks like Putin's dream plan.
IRAN WAR: Bridges, Electric Power Plants Next /Lt Col Daniel Dav is & Robert Barnes How many times does he have to say it's all about the oil? Not only from him but from his administration. One former Military Officer even saying on live tv. We will go in and take anything we want. How sick and evil that is. Iran was no threat to anyone. including us. They say we are doing it to free the people of Iran. No one asked for his help. They don't need his help. Nor do they want it. Now they are all united and standing firm against two lying, evil beasts. And dragging us into their evil war with people who didn't want to harm anyone. People who live in peace with many other religions. Getting along and helping each other. Maybe that's what they hate about Iran. The same reason why they hate Russia!
Well the "ONLY" good thing coming out of this evil war against Iran is how I have watched trump get thrown off the pedestal he and his base put him on. Time and time again. Now the whole world knows we are far from the greatest and most powerful Military at all. Nor the wisest. So much for all he needs is 48 hours to do the job. In and out he said. And now over two months and getting worse every day. And no end in sight.
