Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira Legionario, April 6, 1941 - Excerpts (*) Parish’s church in Altötting (Bayern) Amidst the current sufferings of the Mystical Body of Christ, our Holy Mother Church, presently under fierce attack from internal and external enemies, let us follow some thoughts of Prof. Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira, who always brought Our Lord’s Passion, an event of 2000 years ago, into current focus during his Lenten lectures. There is often a defect in our meditations that diminishes their effectiveness. It is to ponder episodes from the life of Our Lord without linking them to our lives and to what happens around us. Accordingly, we are shocked at the inconsistency and ingratitude of the Jews, when, shortly after having honored Jesus with a solemn procession as Savior they crucified Him with a hatred many find hard to understand. The Jews of 2000 years ago, when Our Lord walked the earth, are not alone in exhibiting this ingratitude and inconsistency. Still today, in the hearts …More
World Cup Viewing Inside a Madrid Church: The church of San Antón in Madrid has started showing Spain’s World Cup matches inside the church, with TV screens set up among the pews so that visitors and parishioners can watch the games. This initiative was promoted by Rev. Ángel García. He said that the broadcasts will continue for as long as Spain remains in the tournament.
La iglesia de San Antón, en Madrid, se ha convertido en una sala de televisión para seguir el Mundial. Impulsada por el Padre Ángel, la iniciativa retransmite los partidos de España dentro del templo y continuará mientras la selección siga en el torneo.
Second possibility: It is likely that there were traitors in the 1958 conclave, certainly in small numbers: two or three were enough to manipulate the fifty or so cardinals! There are always traitors, as history teaches us that there were some in the conclave that elected St. Pius X, and in the more distant one that elected Paul IV or St. Pius V, I don't remember exactly. But, as we see in these two examples, the Holy Spirit knew how to remove them, the rules of the conclave having been well respected. So, the fact that there were traitors in 1958 is nothing extraordinary; what is extraordinary is that in this case they apparently succeeded in their maneuvers.

This month, the #WeCount project by the Society of Family Planning released final abortion estimates for calendar year 2025. Unfortunately, the news is not particularly good for pro-lifers. The Society of Family Planning estimates that 1,126,760 abortions took place in calendar year 2025. This represents a 1.6 percent increase from 2024. Overall, the Society of Family Planning numbers are broadly consistent with the abortion estimates that have been released by the Guttmacher Institute. Unsurprisingly, the #WeCount figures show that telehealth abortions are playing a large role in this abortion increase. REACH PRO-LIFE PEOPLE WORLDWIDE!

The Real Reason You're Still Anxious Fr. Altier emphasizes the importance of trusting God and giving our anxieties to Him, as He cares for us deeply. He highlights the human tendency to seek control and the irony of trusting ourselves despite our frequent failures. We are encouraged to reflect on the root causes of anxiety, including the impact of modern conveniences and social media, to seek detachment and live in alignment with God’s intentions. Fr.

Let's be honest. If that were a SWAT raid in the US, it would have been a scene of teargas and blood. And, while I genuinely hope the best for all of the people involved, I don't shed any tears for the take-down of a "church" of the most damaging heretical sect of Christianity for several centuries: Protestantism.
Peace Deal Made… But the Hunger Crisis Just Evolved Peace Deal Signed — But the Hunger Crisis Just Evolved | Updated Hormuz Model A framework deal has been reached between the United States and Iran to end the war and reopen the Strait of Hormuz. But does this mean the global food crisis is over? In this video, we update the “From Hormuz to Hunger” model with the latest developments — including the peace deal, confirmed El Niño, severe Western drought, New World Screwworm confirmed in Texas, and declining U.S. meat processing capacity. We break down what has changed, what remains locked in, and how close (or far) we are from the original high-end estimates. The original 225 million figure was never a prediction — it was a boundary condition showing how thin the margins are when multiple systems fail at once. Even with a deal in place, that structure hasn’t disappeared. We’re tracking this story with documents, not opinions. 00:00 – The Shocking Reality: 225 Million Projected Deaths …More
Baby Knox was born at just 25 weeks. His tiny body and fragile lungs needed time, support, and care to keep growing stronger. But his value was never fragile or questioned. From the moment of his existence, he was made in the image of God worthy of love and protection.
When a bird found shelter in a Capuchin friar’s habit | Shalom World News Sometimes, God’s most beautiful messages arrive not through grand events, but through the quiet wonders of creation. At the Capuchin Monastery in Kottayam, Kerala, India, a land blessed by the visit of Pope St. John Paul II in 1986 and near the birthplace of St. Alphonsa, the first female saint of India, an extraordinary moment unfolded. A small bulbul bird, known for its sweet song and gentle presence, found a most unexpected shelter to begin a new life: the hood of a Capuchin friar’s habit. Fr. Jinu Mandiyil had hung his religious habit to dry. When he returned days later, he discovered a sight that filled the monastery with wonder — a tiny nest resting inside the hood, with newborn chicks waiting for their mother’s care. The friars watched with joy as the mother bird returned, feeding her little ones inside the folds of the garment dedicated to the service of God. Moved by the beauty of the moment, Fr. Jinu …More
The seasonal winter sermons of the preacher and proclaimer of the divine Word, interpreter of sacred scripture and most subtle professor, Saint Vincent, confessor of Valencia, of the Order of Preachers, happily begin. [Saint Vincent Ferrer, OP, XIV-XV Century, (aged 69), born: Valencia, Kingdom of Valencia/died: Vannes, Duchy of Brittany, preacher, missionary and logician, ‘Angel of Apocalypse’] St. Vincent Ferrer ~ First Sunday of Advent. Sermon 1 Part one -The theme Mt 21.9 And the multitudes that went before and that followed, cried, saying: Hosanna to the son of David: Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord: Hosanna in the highest. Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord," (Mt 21:9). We have prescribed for today's gospel this text from Mt 21. This Sunday is one of the greater Sundays of the entire year, because it is the first Sunday of the Coming (Adventus) of the Lord.

"Because no human nor angelic creature shall remain there, for all shall come with the king for judgment. The horn or trumpet shall sound, thunder and lightning etc., to the extent that heaven and earth shall shudder. Note. If heavens and earth and the creatures which never have sinned against God are not able to stand up to his coming, what will it be for sinners, who have committed so many sins against God? Then it would be better to be in hell than to see God."
Father Matthieu Raffray: "As a Christian, I believe that there is only one religion, one truth, and one path: Christ himself. Thus, naturally, every Christian wishes for people to turn to Christ, to get to know Jesus Christ, and for all false religions to gradually disappear.”
Père Matthieu Raffray: “En tant que chrétien, on croit qu’il n’y a qu’une seule religion, une seule vérité et un seul chemin : le Christ lui-même. Ainsi, bien sûr, chaque chrétien souhaite que les hommes se tournent vers le Christ, qu’ils apprennent à connaître Jésus-Christ et qu’ainsi toute fausse religion disparaisse progressivement.”

Marksmen will target the animals, known as brumbies, in a major cull across Kosciuszko National Park in New South Wales, where officials say soaring numbers are causing extensive environmental damage. The operation is expected to begin as early as this week and forms part of a government plan to slash the wild horse population from an estimated 6,000 to 16,000 animals to just 3,000 by the middle of next year. The move has sparked outrage among campaigners, who have branded the aerial shooting programme 'completely barbaric' and launched petitions calling for it to be halted. Brumbies have roamed the rugged alpine landscape of Kosciuszko National Park for more than 200 years. Descended from horses lost or released by …
