I have truly felt your support. Thank you!"

Claretian Missionaries Leave Zamora and León. After 125 years of educational and evangelizing work, the Claretian Missionaries are leaving Zamora. Farewell events are scheduled for October 23 and 24, including a thanksgiving Mass at Zamora Cathedral. The congregation is also leaving León after 57 years, closing its residential care facility. Religious life, both male and female, is disappearing from Spain at an alarming pace. Vocations are virtually nonexistent, while deaths, departures, and community closures have become everyday realities.

Las vocaciones son prácticamente inexistentes, mientras que las muertes, las salidas y los cierres de comunidades se han convertido en una realidad cotidiana.
A difficult day can come without warning. The question is not whether we will face difficulties, but whether we will be prepared to stand firm when they come. God does not leave us defenseless. His Word and the armor of God equip us to resist, stand firm, and move forward. Prepare yourself today to stand firm in the day of adversity.
Mistaken: Speaking at The Spectator's Free Speech Debate, Lord Sumption says a person should be allowed to engage in silent prayer provided it is not directed at 'vulnerable people outside abortion clinics'.
Does Leo XIV use archdioceses as dumping grounds for unwanted Vatican officials? Italian priest Filippo Di Giacomo criticises the appointment of Cardinal Mauro Gambetti as Archbishop of Chieti-Vasto. Chieti-Vasto is a historically significant episcopal see in central and southern Italy. Di Giacomo suggests that Leo XIV instrumentalised the Archdiocese to get Gambetti out of the Roman Curia. Di Giacomo also reports an unconfirmed claim that Gambetti accepted the transfer only after being promised an auxiliary bishop. Gambetti reportedly intends to retain other “commitments”. If true, the archdiocese could end up with an archbishop whose attention is elsewhere. Di Giacomo warns that the same misfortune may await the Archdiocese of Pescara-Penne, with the likely arrival of another “castoff from the Roman Curia.”
FILIPPO DI GIACOMO: “IL 3 OTTOBRE IL CARDINALE MAURO GAMBETTI È DIVENTATO ARCIVESCOVO DI CHIETI-VASTO” – “SENZA NESSUN GIUDIZIO SULL'ESERCIZIO DELL'ENORME POTERE AVUTO DA GAMBETTI, PERCHÉ UN'ARCIDIOCESI IMPORTANTE E GRANDE COME QUELLA DI CHIETI-VASTO DEVE RICEVERE UN PASTORE (E NON È LA PRIMA VOLTA) DISTANTE DALLE SENSIBILITÀ LOCALI E NOMINATO SOLO PER RISOLVERE UNO SQUILIBRIO NELLA CURIA ROMANA?”
The Quiet Revolution Undermining Catholic Tradition | A Bishop Speaks remnantnewspaper | By: Bishop Rob Mutsaerts The Church's most dangerous revolution is the one that never admits it is happening. Bishop Rob Mutsaerts exposes how pastoral ambiguity, progressive reforms, and local experiments erode Catholic teaching while claiming to leave doctrine untouched. The Deceptive Tactics of the Quiet Revolution Over the course of two thousand years, the Catholic Church has endured just about everything that can happen to an institution: bad popes, corrupt bishops, heresies, schisms, revolutions, persecutions, decadent monasteries, dissolute clergy, and theologians so determined to be original that, in the end, they were the only ones who still understood what they meant. And yet the Church is still here. Not because Catholics have always been sensible. That would be a rather daring historical hypothesis. The Church survived because, time and again, one remarkable phenomenon occurred: once the …Hafa
The Vatican is controlled by heretics. Heretic Pope Leo XIV approved 'A Path To Hope'. It goes against Catholic dogma. It walks lock-step with Noahide laws that the globalists want to push on non-Jews. TL;DR: Pope Leo/Prevost, like Pope Francis/Bergoglio, wants to empty Catholic churches to appease the globalists.
This is really good, I'll save and share it. The Art of War and Thick Face, Black Heart seem to reveal an ancient, strong Catholic influence. Similar to finding that Confucius and Thomas A Kempis are both credited for the saying, "No matter where you go, there you are."

True Gospel Fruit In the late 1800's, true Gospel preaching yielded fruit in the village of Lu Italy of about 1,800 to 2,000 residents, 323 vocations, comprising 152 priests and 171 nuns across 41 congregations. Multiple vocations often came from a single family, such as the Rinaldi family with seven vocations, including Blessed Filippo Rinaldi. The Great Vocational Inversion: How Modernity Has Dumbed Down The Gospel Modernity is suffering from collective amnesia, and nowhere is this more evident than in our soft, therapeutic approach to "discerning a vocation." Ask any contemporary vocation director, and you will hear a familiar, comforting script: Marriage is the baseline default for human life. Virginity or religious life is a specialized, elite calling for a heroic few. It sounds prudent. It sounds balanced. It is also a complete inversion of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. If we dare to pull back the layers of mid-century sentimentality and look at the raw text of the Scriptures …Hafa
anecdote from the surgeon that operated on Pope Leo XIV: "On the second day after the operation, we turned around and found him arranging the chairs in the chapel himself. We said, “Holy Father, we can do that.” And he replied, “It doesn’t matter. I can do it, so I will.” What can I say? He really was an absolutely ideal patient."
"Meddle thee not with other men's goods, neither busy thee in great men s causes: have always an eye to thyself and diligently inform and admonish thyself before all others. If thou have not the favour of worldly-living people, sorrow not therefor: but let this be thy daily sorrow, that thou behavest not thyself in thy conversation, as it beseemeth a good religious person to do."
‘OF COMPUNCTION OF THE HEART...…’ ~ ‘The Imitation of Christ’ ~ Thomas A Kempis; 1872; Book I; Chapters 21; pages 36-37; part II [Thomas a Kempis – XIV-XV Century AD; Kempen, Holy Roman Empire/Zwolle, Holy Roman Empire; aged 90-91; Canon, Regular] 21. OF COMPUNCTION OF THE HEART. Meddle thee not with other men s goods, neither busy thee in great men s causes: have always an eye to thyself and diligently inform and admonish thyself before all others. If thou have not the favour of worldly-living people, sorrow not therefor: but let this be thy daily sorrow, that thou behavest not thyself in thy conversation, as it beseemeth a good religious person to do. It is more expedient and more profitable that a man sometimes lack consolations in this life, than that he have them always after his own will, namely, fleshly consolations. Nevertheless, that we have not sometimes heavenly consolations, or that we so seldom feel them as we do, is through our own default : for we seek not to have true …Hafa
Bebo’s FriendsSo Army Chief General Sir Roly says that the British Army is 'ready for war' and that the wider public must also be prepared to get involved and make sacrifices. Maybe he could start by teaching his soldiers how to march and wear their uniforms correctly? Embarrassing.
I was going to leave a video someone was asked to look at between Russia and the US marches. But it was too humiliating and I already posted about it before. No sense in doing it again. It's not their fault but those in charge of our Military.
