At the Eucharist of Epiphany in St Peter’s Basilica, Pope Leo XIV introduced a new Ferula pontificalis for the first time, VaticanNews.va reports on January 13. Unlike a bishop’s crozier, which ends in a curved hook, the papal pastoral staff is straight at the top. The new ferula resembles the famous pastoral staff used by John Paul II, with its prominent cruciform design. However, it omits the crucifixion imagery. "Christ is no longer depicted with the nails of the Passion," noted the Liturgical Office, "but with his glorified body, ascending to the Father." It continued: "As in his appearances after Easter, the risen Lord shows his wounds as luminous signs of victory - a victory that does not erase human suffering, but surpasses it in the dawn of divine life." The Ferula pontificalis has been in use since the late Middle Ages and was traditionally presented to a newly elected pope when he took possession of his cathedra at the Basilica of St John Lateran. Paul VI was the first pope …بیشتر
ترجمه به زبان فارسی پیامی به مسلمانان نیکخواه و با امیدی استوار به آزادی واقعی. مسیح در انتظار توست و تو با تجربه شخصی خود، ریشهدار بودن معنا و ارزش ایمان مسیحی را خواهی دید. شجاع باش و نترس؛ عیسی، خدای راستین و انسان کامل، با توست. «همه چیز برای تو، ای قلب مقدس عیسی» نکته: گزارشهای مختلف از نهادهای مسیحی حاکی از آن است که نزدیک به ۵۰,۰۰۰ مسجد از حدود ۷۵,۰۰۰ مسجد در ایران در سالهای اخیر از فعالیت بازماندهاند یا عملاً خالی هستند، که عمدتاً به دلیل کاهش شدید حضور مردم است. بحران اقتصادی، سرکوب رژیم و تحمیل سختگیرانه قوانین اسلامی باعث ناامیدی عمیق در میان مردم شده است، به ویژه پس از خشونتهای اعمال شده علیه زنانی که علیه قوانین حجاب دست به اعتراض زدند. در میان این فضای ناامیدی، شمار فزایندهای از ایرانیان — که برخی برآوردها تعداد آنها را بین صدها هزار تا سه میلیون نفر تخمین میزنند — در حال یافتن امیدی تازه در عیسی مسیح هستند. بسیاری از آنها از رویاروییهای شخصی با عیسی از طریق رؤیاها و خوابها سخن میگویند؛ تجربیاتی که آنها را واقعی، عمیق و تحولآفرین توصیف میکنند. این دیدارهای …بیشتر
People have very short memories. The 24 hour news cycle makes last month's headlines out-of-date. That's why we never learn any lessons from history. For example: all the scandals of Francis/Leo are merely a rehash of the post-Vatican II period of the 70s & 80s. That's why I marvel at people losing their minds over it. I already lived through it once AND survived. Keep the Faith!
Russia is sending military craft to Iran, the UN comes out condemning Iran's actions against its protesters, as Trumps calls them patriots and that he will support them and sending them aid, the hypocrisy of nations condemning Iran's actions but not Trump's actions vs his own protesters in the U.S. the killing of innocent Americans defamed by calling them domestic terrorists and the stealing of Venezuela's oil, and the abduction of president Maduro, the UN never imposed sanctions nor condemn Trump but is conveniently condemning Iran. Trump defends Iran's democracy but tramples over his own and shows how good of a Dictator he is. The irony for power, and the gullible Americans that still believe all is for the good of the world and a country when they are not listening to Trump's own words that he is in for the resources, nothing else. WW 3 is coming.

On December 6, 2025, the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops released a statement about the 62 Vatican artifacts returned to the Indigenous Peoples of Canada. Here's what the bishops said: (Montreal) – In celebration of the Jubilee of Hope declared by Pope Francis, Pope Leo XIV gifted 62 cultural artifacts that had been part of the Vatican Museums’ Anima Mundi collection to the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops, for immediate transfer to Indigenous communities in Canada. Among the items is a rare, century-old kayak from the Western Arctic and other artifacts of cultural significance to Inuit, First Nations and Métis communities. Leaders of the Assembly of First Nations, Inuvialuit Regional Corporation, Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami and Métis National Council were in Montreal to receive the gifts when they arrived in Canada. Local First Nations leadership held ceremony to welcome the sacred items and First Nations bundles back to Canada. Elders and Residential School Survivors have …
05.01.2025 HOW CAN CARDINALS MCELROY AND RADCLIFFE PARTICIPATE IN THE CONSISTORY ? : VATICAN COUNCIL II RATIONAL IS TRADITIONAL AND OPPOSED TO LGBT IDEOLOGY How can cardinals McElroy and Radcliffe participate in the Consistory when Vatican Council II rational, is ecclesiocentric and supports traditional faith and morals, opposed to LGBT ideology? They must recant or resign. Since they are not doing either there must be an institutional process to check them. With the discovery that ‘the red is not an exception for the blue’, Vatican Council II is no more ‘a revolution’ or a ‘new revelation’ in the Catholic Church. The Church has moved forward since 1965. The interpretation of Vatican Council II by Pope Paul VI to Pope Leo XIV and that of Rahner, Ratzinger, Congar, Lubac, Lehmann, Kung, Guardini and Lefebvre was schismatic. We now have a non schismatic, option, which is rational, traditional and ecclesiocentric. They used the False Premise which created schism.We avoid the False …بیشتر
The Venezuelan government has quietly contracted Rothschild & Co. — the global investment powerhouse long accused of pulling strings behind sovereign debt crises — to map out the nation’s external debt obligations amid a full economic breakdown. According to insiders, Rothschild’s job is not simply bookkeeping — they’re building the blueprint for total financial restructuring under globalist control, a typical precursor to sovereign economic takeover. Venezuela owes hundreds of billions of dollars to foreign bondholders and state creditors, a mountain of liabilities that has crippled Caracas for years. This includes sovereign bonds and PDVSA oil debt that have been in default for over six years. BYPASS THE CENSORS Sign up to get unfiltered news delivered straight to your inbox.

Professor Anita Baxas,MD Feb 06, 2024 Italian translation: https://www.thelivingspirits.net/dr-sa-baxas-la-spike-e-un-depistaggio-e-una-subdola-manipolazione// We need to seriously question the story about the spike protein of the so called Covid “virus” and the mRNA story in the jabs. I delved into studies regarding the detection of the spike protein and found there is no evidence for its existence. Here’s why: Thanks for reading Anita Baxas MD Substack! Subscribe for free to receive new posts and support my work. 1. First of all, there is no evidence that any virus ever existed as the tests purported to be evidence are humbug. I wrote extensively about it in another post: So if there is no virus, there can’t be any spike protein since it is claimed the spike protein is part of the outer capsule of the virus. 2. Studies1,2,3,4,5 do NOT use isolated spike protein from isolated virus samples to analyze its amino acid sequence and test what it does to cells. They take the gene sequence …
"Religious sentiments were hurt": After almost 3 weeks, the diocese of Rottenburg-Stuttgart acknowledges, in typical Novus Ordo speak, the disaster that was the nationally televised 'Christmas Mass' featuring a living slime-alien as the Christ Child
The diocese of Rottenburg-Stuttgart, Germany, allegedly regrets its televised Christmas Eve Eucharist, which featured an adult woman covered in sticky rice paper who resembled a slimy alien in a manger. The Eucharist was broadcast Germanwide from the parish of St Mary’s in Stuttgart. The officiating priest, Thomas Steiger, said during the service: "The nativity scene shows a real human being, lying there miserable, naked and exposed." Next to him, the female actor breathed heavily and slowly writhed in the paper, which was apparently meant to represent the vernix covering a newborn child. "This is how radically God becomes human: close, touchable, without distance, real," said Rev Steiger. It was only on 12 January, after nearly three weeks of mounting criticism and online mockery, that Bishop Klaus Krämer of Rottenburg-Stuttgart published a statement on the diocesan website. It claims that the bishop has taken note of the feedback and carefully reviewed it over the past few days. "The …بیشتر
Mon Jan 5, 2026 - 8:34 pm ESTMon Jan 5, 2026 - 9:08 pm EST (LifeSiteNews) — With indications of multiple motivations for the U.S. attack on Venezuela and capture of President Nicolás Maduro circulating in the west, proposals have also emerged suggesting the Trump administration is additionally addressing election fraud crimes that many allege originate from the South American nation. Since at least 2004, concerns of fraudulent voting systems emanating from a company associated with Venezuela nationals, and at least partially owned by their government, have appeared sporadically in media both locally and abroad in the United States. According to a CNN report at the time, the Venezuelan government owned 28% of Bista, a company that adapted software for voting machines manufactured by Smartmatic, a corporation also owned by businessmen from the nation. Smartmatic reportedly advanced into the United States with the purchase of competitor Sequoia and grew into what is described as a labyrinth …
JAN 2026 - TRUMP'S Donroe Doctrine as he calls it, receives an opposition and firm disapproval from Canada for the illicit invasion of Venezuela under a pretext of narco terrorism to take over the countries' oil resources and minerals. On the other hand Trump pridefully says that he will take control (govern) over the entire hemisphere. Canada reminds the U.S. that they are ready for any action the U.S. may try to force against them as they will never bow down to a dictator and lose their country to become the 51 state in the U.S. Furthermore, calls D.T. a GANGSTER for raging commercial warfare over his allies and turning his back on them to side with Russia, China and Iran, calling D.T. a gangster, and sending Trump a strong message.
— “My mom is living her life all wrong. I really want to help her…” — “Help her how, exactly?” — “Teach her how to live the right way.” — “And you?” — “What about me?” — “Are you living the right way?” — “Why are we talking about me? I’m talking about my mom!” That’s how this story began—an ordinary one, yet deeply revealing. Sitting across from me was a young, beautiful woman in a bright dress, wrists full of shiny bracelets. Confident. Modern. Put together. Her mother, she said, lived “the wrong way.” Because despite having an apartment and even a voucher for a wellness resort, she stubbornly refused to relax. Instead, she wanted her garden, her vegetable beds, her potatoes. “I’ve told her a hundred times—just buy the potatoes, I’ll pay!” the daughter complained. “All she and her friends talk about are their grandkids.” “And what do you think they should be talking about?” I asked. “Spiritual growth,” she said without hesitation. “And you?” I smiled. “Me again?” …بیشتر
Because she understood: everything she has today grew out of those garden beds. “But you’re only talking about material things,” she objected softly. “There’s also spirituality, trust, love…” “It’s easy to talk about spirituality when your fridge is full,” I replied. “It’s much harder when it’s empty. Your mother gave you everything she could. And it worked—you now have choices. How to live. What to believe in. And now—it’s your turn.”
