On the last day of Parish Priests for the Synod—an international meeting of parish priests at the Vatican—Cardinal Jean-Claude Hollerich, SJ, encouraged participants “to become ambassadors of synodality, to be full participants in a synodal Church, to become with all the people of God, missionary disciples of Jesus.” “Many times their training and their reality have been oriented towards a Tridentine model of the priesthood,” Cardinal Hollerich, the relator-general of the synod on synodality, said of parish priests, in an address to Pope Francis in the presence of participants. “And now they see that the identity they had for centuries is crumbling, and sometimes this identity is lost ... and there is the danger of wanting to build a new identity based on the experience of the past.” “The identity of priests and parish priests (even bishops) is given to us by the Holy Spirit when we walk with the people,” he continued. “Then the sacraments are no longer the expression of a ritualism in …More
They hate Tradition because it prevents them from perverting the Church into One world religion as their master demands. But we know how that will end…
St. Patrick's Church was turned into a cinema for a special screening of Young Frankenstein to commemorate its 50th anniversary, for some reason. It came complete with smoke effects.

What a great flick! Teri Garr... need I say more? I would have liked 'Bullet' though. Love that chase scene. The clip sound here reminds me of the 1st track of the Beatles "St. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band" album too. Maybe next week they can do that. Right after Mass would be good. I'm not doing much on Sundays anway. (Can we get the parish address/website?) I hope they're offering popcorn. I'd pay extra for it if it has enough butter. But it's got to be low fat. Health, you know.

Vatican message to Buddhists: “The noble teachings of our respective traditions, and the exemplary lives lived by those whom we revere, bear witness to the abundant benefits of reconciliation and resilience,” wrote the prefect and secretary of the dicastery. “Reconciliation and resilience unite to form a potent synergy that heals past wounds, forges strong bonds, and makes it possible to meet life’s challenges with fortitude and optimism.”

The Vatican's Dicastery for Interreligious Dialogue, headed by Cardinal Miguel Ayuso Guixot, sent a message on 6 May to Buddhists celebrating 'Vesak', a festival commemorating Buddha's birth, enlightenment and passing [i.e.: descent into hell]. The message expresses the belief that Christians and Buddhists can work together to promote peace, reconciliation and resilience, "values deeply rooted in our respective religious traditions". In real life, there is no way to peace without Christ, the Prince of Peace. It even speaks of the "noble teachings of our respective traditions" and believes that "the rituals and worship appropriate to our respective religious traditions" promote reconciliation and resilience. In reality, Buddhist ideas are wrong and their rituals are demon worship, while the Vatican fights against "the rituals and worship" according to the Roman Rite, which originated with Christ and the apostles. The message quotes Paul VI, Desmond Tutu, Buddha, St Paul and St Francis (…More

Cardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa, who postponed his trip to Rome two weeks ago in the midst of the ongoing war on Gaza, took possession of Sant'Onofrio's, his titular church in Rome, on 1 May. This church is home to the Knights of the Holy Sepulchre. It was packed. In his homily, the Cardinal said that people could not wait for the US to resolve the war in Gaza: "These are difficult moments, but they are also moments of hope, because perhaps something is moving in the current negotiations, hopefully. We must never give up. In any case, the situation remains very dramatic, serious and difficult. In addition to the military problems, which exist and are serious, there is the humanitarian problem in Gaza." Picture: Michael Haynes, LifeSiteNews.com, #newsKoreggbhrv

Wow. That is the high altar at Sant’Onofrio, and pictures I have found show that they certainly do have a “Cranmer table,” which is outside of the Communion rail. I wonder whose idea it was to celebrate ad orientem. I still don’t believe that there is any future for a “reverent Novus ordo,” but this is interesting.

A female clown danced in front of the Eucharistic table in the cathedral of Speyer, Germany, to celebrate or caricature a "Day of the Deaconess". The show was officially described as a "divine service". The Imperial Cathedral Basilica of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary and St Stephen in Speyer dates from the 11th century and is the world's largest surviving Romanesque church and building. The clown show was led by six women and a female clown and was organised by [former] Catholic associations in Germany, several [former] Catholic women's associations and the Central Committee of German "Catholics" (ZdK), a powerful lay body and leading promoter of decadence in the German Church. The focus of the show was to push for [invalidly ordained] deaconesses. A 'Day of the Deaconess' has been celebrated by German dioceses since 1998. #newsLjzjuintiu

Bishop Stephan Ackermann of Trier, Germany, presided over an "ecumenical" homosexual service in his cathedral on 17 April. The performance was advertised as part of the annual diocesan celebration of the Holy Tunic of Christ. About 50 elderly people attended. A large homosex flag was laid down in front of the unused Novus Ordo table. The event was like a conference with various speeches interspersed with some songs (e.g. 'True Colours' by homosexual activist Cyndi Lauper, 1986). A scripture reading was delivered by a presumed transvestite. Bishop Ackermann claimed that the homosexual propagandists, who are among the sacred cows of the German regime, would experience "hatred" and "violence" because of their sexual disorder ("identity", "orientation"). Mgr Ackermann attacked the Church by calling his homosexual propaganda show a "commitment", saying that "we want to be a diocese that values diversity", including "sexual and gender diversity". "Diversity" is a term that means the promotion …More
