The Roman Rite Returns to Another Monastery: Today, twelve Benedictine monks from Le Barroux officially established a new monastic community at Notre-Dame de Bellefontaine Abbey in western France. Founded in the early 12th century, the abbey was home to Trappist monks from 1816 until their departure in 2025. Fr. Raphaël, the new prior, paid tribute to the departing community: "The monastery is in very good condition. The brothers cared for it until the very end, always hoping they could remain." And: "Our liturgy will be celebrated in Latin and Gregorian chant. There will be those who like it and those who do not. Each person must discern for himself."
Douze moines de l’abbaye du Barroux, dans le Vaucluse, s’installeront aujourd’hui à l’abbaye Notre-Dame de Bellefontaine, en Maine-et-Loire, relançant ainsi une vie bénédictine interrompue depuis 1642, après le départ des moines trappistes en 2025.

What do you think of that? Archbishop Lenga just said: SSPX excommunications mean nothing before God. He called the real schismatics "cardinals and bishops inside the Vatican" – and said Pope Leo no longer represents the Church that leads souls to salvation.
Spanish Archbishop Rejects Opposition to Mosque: Archbishop José Ángel Saiz Meneses of Seville addressed the proposed mosque in the city at a press conference on Friday. He cited Article 18 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, Article 16 of the Spanish Constitution, and Vatican II's Dignitatis Humanae, emphasizing that religious freedom is both a universal and constitutional right. He added that these rights must be exercised in accordance with state, regional, local, and municipal law. His remarks come as Seville City Council has postponed a decision on the mosque's building permit while seeking additional technical and legal reports following objections from the political party Vox.
Los obispos que hace no mucho hablaban de la ‘Prioridad del Evangelio’ contra posiciones políticas, ahora hablan de “constitución” y “libertad religiosa” frente a la construcción de macromezquitas y centros médicos que hablan de ‘Prioridad musulmana’.
On 28 June, the closing day of Munich "Pride" weekend, the Cathedral of Munich, Germany, hosted its first Christopher Street Day (CSD) Youth Liturgy. The liturgy included scripture readings, prayers, music and personal blessings. The event was organised jointly by the Cathedral Parish, the Catholic youth organisation BDKJ, and the Queer Pastoral Ministry of the Archdiocese of Munich and Freising. The organisers of the 'Catholic' cathedral service also participated in the Munich homosex march. BDKJ members marched carrying a large rainbow banner bearing the words 'Love is no sin'. They also carried a large orange banner depicting Jesus Christ with the slogan 'Jesus would dance with us at CSD!'. Both banners displayed the BDKJ logo to identify them as part of the organisation's official participation in the homosex march. Picture: AI, #newsXyryhufnmj
Homosexual Couple Sues Surrogate for Refusing to Abort Their Son: A Canadian homosexual male couple is suing the surrogate mother who carried "their" son after she refused their 2024 request to abort him at 22 weeks because of a cleft lip. Filed in Ontario Superior Court in May 2026, the lawsuit seeks about $600,000, alleging the surrogate withheld medical information, breached confidentiality, and caused emotional distress. She denies the allegations, saying the dispute began after she refused the abortion request and adding, "I just feel used... They didn't get the perfect child they wanted, and they threw me away."

Many bishops in the USA (and elsewhere) forbid Catholics from attending Mass in chapels belonging to the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X, yet they welcome schismatics and homosexuals. Three examples: Arlington Bishop: FSSPX Sacraments Are "Invalid" Bishop Michael Burbidge of Arlington, Virginia, instructed Catholics to “avoid participating in the activities of the FSSPX.” In a letter dated 8 July, he wrote that "any celebrations of the sacraments of confession and matrimony by the FSSPX are invalid, and the administration of other sacraments is illicit". In September 2025, Bishop Burbidge said that his meeting with the Greek Orthodox Patriarch Bartholomew was “incredible,” and marked a “historic moment of Christian unity”. Covington Bishop: FSSPX Mass Is "Abuse of Eucharist" Bishop John Iffert of Covington, Kentucky, said in a recent statement that the sacraments from the FSSPX are “illicit”: “The Masses these priests celebrate are an abuse of the Eucharist, insofar as they make the …थप
Doesn't Rome recognize the confessions and marriages of the schismatic Orthodox as valid? So if the SSPX is in schism, it should be given the same favor.
The Roman Rite Revived a Church Planned for Demolition: The church St. Francis de Sales in St. Louis, Missouri, was facing demolition after its parish closed in 2005. Instead, then-Archbishop Raymond Leo Burke of St. Louis entrusted it to the Institute of Christ the King Sovereign Priest. The Roman rite has been celebrated ever since. Today, the church regularly attracts more than 700 worshippers each Sunday, many of whom are young adults and families.
Lombardy's Bishops on Their Phones: All ten bishops of Lombardy gathered from July 5–10 at the Hermitage of Montecastello in Tignale del Garda for their annual Spiritual Exercises, led by Bishop Massimiliano Palinuro, Apostolic Administrator of Istanbul. They met "for prayer, reflection, and fraternity." The photo showing the bishops all looking down at their phones could be reading the Breviary.

Above all: that's not "Let it be, it's summertime". While they are there for their Spiritual Exercises. .......... Not to excuse them: fear of being reported as "old-minded" may also act
Leo XIV Wants Church with Open Doors and for "Everyone": Today, Pope Leo XIV held a lunch for 200 people in need from the Diocese of Rome in the Gardens of Castel Gandolfo. He said: "I've not prepared a speech, because, I am hungry - hungry for justice, for authentic charity, for a Church that knows how to open its doors, welcome people, and care for everyone." The guests enjoyed a meal featuring pasta all'amatriciana, roast veal, other Italian specialities and strawberries with whipped cream for dessert.
Speaking off-the-cuff at lunch with 200 poor people from the Diocese of Rome, and welcoming them to the Pontifical gardens of Castel Gandolfo, Pope Leo XIV says: “I didn’t prepare a speech because I am hungry. I’m hungry for justice, I’m hungry for authentic charity, I’m hungry for a Church that knows how to opens its doors, welcomes and looks after everyone.”
By mocking the sacrament of the priesthood and the canonization of saints, the apostate Prevost—in defiance of God—commits the unforgivable sin of blasphemy against the Holy Spirit; yet, there are still Catholics who delude themselves into thinking they are not schismatics while remaining united with the apostate Robert Prevost. This is precisely how the apostate angels became schismatics: by joining Lucifer’s rebellion against God. It is unimaginable that an angel of lower rank would have defied the apostate Lucifer to defend God's supremacy.
St. James' admonition of the link of impurity and war has outwardly manifested for all the world to see. James 4: 1, From whence are wars and contentions among you? Are they not hence, from your concupiscences, which war in your members?
