Sanctuary of Our Lady of Lourdes: Andrea Bocelli prays Rosary | Shalom World News World-renowned opera singer Andrea Bocelli, a lifelong Catholic whose voice has moved millions across the world, was seen reciting the Holy Rosary at the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Lourdes, one of the most beloved Marian shrines in the Catholic world. Far from the grandeur of concert halls, this was a different kind of offering—one not of applause, but of devotion. With the simplicity of a believer and the tenderness of a son before his mother, Bocelli entered prayer at Lourdes, a place forever marked by the apparitions of the Virgin in 1858. There, amid the atmosphere of candlelight, prayer, and deep reverence, his recitation of the Rosary felt like a gentle hymn of trust rising to heaven. For Catholics around the world, the moment carries a quiet beauty: a celebrated artist kneeling spiritually with the faithful, turning not to fame, but to grace; not to performance, but to prayer. ----------------
In 1916 at Fatima St Michael the Archangel prostrated himself with his forehead to the ground in profound adoration of the Blessed Sacrament of the Altar. In rejecting the Message of Fatima it would take only 77 years for the antithesis of Fatima to raise its ugly head. the clergy and future Pope to degenerate to such a low as to engage in an evil syncretism of idol worship. Fatima 1916 “we saw the Angel again, who had in his left hand a Chalice over which was suspended a Host, from which some drops of Blood fell into the Chalice.” Leaving the Chalice and the Host suspended in the air, he prostrated himself down to the earth near the children and repeated three times this prayer: Most Holy Trinity, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, I adore Thee profoundly, and I offer Thee the Most Precious Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of the same Son Jesus Christ, present in all the tabernacles of the world, in reparation for all the outrages, sacrileges, and indifference by which He Himself is offended …More
This article originally appeared in the National Post. By Jan Matejcek, February 2, 2026 I grew up in Communist Czechoslovakia, and after the Iron Curtain fell in 1989, I served proudly on the board of Czech President Václav Havel’s Vision ’97 Foundation. Having known him personally, I can say with certainty that Prime Minister Mark Carney’s plans do not at all align with Havel’s vision. In his Davos speech, Carney invoked Havel’s essay, “The Power of the Powerless,” to draw upon Havel’s insight that the Soviet system relied upon the capitulation of ordinary people to the lies of Communist ideology. According to Carney, the rules-based international order has likewise been “partially false,” a system of lies held up by nations’ willingness to avoid “calling out the gaps between rhetoric and reality.” Vaclav Havel, a playwright turned dissident, gained international fame during the 1968 Prague Spring, which was brutally suppressed by Soviet troops. Refusing to emigrate, he …
Canada’s PM Carney lied to Canadians telling them that he brought up the topic of human rights in his past trip negotiating a new trade deal with PRC. He lied. The records show that he never did. Don’t be Canada.
Iran's barbaric regime has long used sexual violence as a sickening tool to crush dissent. Known for their brutality, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) slaughtered thousands of protesters who dared to take to the streets in anti-government protests in January. But despite their fearsome reputation, the sadistic sexual punishments meted out by the ayatollah's violent henchmen in recent months have still shocked observers. Last month a report from Amnesty International found that thousands of Iranians are at risk of sexual violence, with children as young as 14 being sexually assaulted by IRGC gangs in January. In the same month, two Iranian nurses were gang-raped and relentlessly tortured by the Islamic Republic's security agents because they treated wounded protesters during anti-regime demonstrations. The nurses, from Tehran’s Rajaei Cardiovascular, Medical and Research Centre, have had their uteruses removed, so violent were the assaults. One victim, 33, is so traumatised …

5th Sunday of Lent – A - Second Reading - Romans 8:8–11 – You are not in the flesh Denice May Letter to the Romans 8,8-11. Brothers and sisters: those who are in the flesh cannot please God. But you are not in the flesh; on the contrary, you are in the spirit, if only the Spirit of God dwells in you. Whoever does not have the Spirit of Christ does not belong to him. But if Christ is in you, although the body is dead because of sin, the spirit is alive because of righteousness. If the Spirit of the one who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, the one who raised Christ from the dead will give life to your mortal bodies also, through his Spirit that dwells in you.

GOD is so awesome. He shows what happens to evil people with immense pride who lies constantly what can happen to them. He thought Iran was weak and he would be such a tough guy to bring them down quickly. Oops! Didn't happen. GOD will raise up the humble. And He will destroy and bring down the prideful. Just remember Mary's Canticle. trump is a bully and a tyrant. I will never forget what he did with that video lounging on the dead bodies of those poor innocent children and people. He is one sick maniac. And he will get his sooner than he thinks.
In the mean time Ukraine just added Russian Paralympians to ‘kill list’ Russian Paralympians added to Ukraine’s … Both of these men are evil. Trump finally admitting how he has been helping Ukraine against Russia. Just as I have been trying to tell everyone he was doing.
5th Sunday of Lent – A - First Reading - Ezekiel 37:12–14 – I will put my spirit in you that you may live. Book of Ezekiel 37,12-14. Thus says the Lord GOD: O my people, I will open your graves and have you rise from them, and bring you back to the land of Israel. Then you shall know that I am the LORD, when I open your graves and have you rise from them, O my people! I will put my spirit in you that you may live, and I will settle you upon your land; thus you shall know that I am the LORD. I have promised, and I will do it, says the LORD. Psalms 130(129),1-2.3-4.5-6.7-8. Out of the depths I cry to you, O LORD LORD, hear my voice! Let your ears be attentive to my voice in supplication. If you, O LORD, mark iniquities, LORD, who can stand? But with you is forgiveness, that you may be revered. I trust in the LORD; my soul trusts in his word. My soul waits for the Lord more than sentinels for dawn. For with the LORD is kindness and with him is plenteous redemption; and he will redeem …More
A shame he was born a Catholic and died as an atheist. I am sure he is regretting what he said now. If he never repented before his death that is. Why are atheist so full of themselves who think they know it all? They think their opinions are so important. GOD is not interested in opinions. And why we need to depend on Him for everything.
I said it many times before. evil is cunning, but they sure are dumber than a rock. What goes around comes around. Play with fire and you will get burnt. It's as simple as that. Causing chaos and confusion around the world. And much death of innocent children, men women and destroying the environment.
They will have to admit they have nuclear weapons now after falsely accusing Iran for decades. Like the Democrats taught us, the accusations that come from evil forces are really confessions of hidden guilt. Also like when the MSN (Epstein network) accused Holy Mother Church of "widespread" pedophilia. The Sacrament of Confession is not a ritual of religion but an offer from God for all mankind in His Church. Without it, we all are proven to be liars.
they want their job done before easter- would it not be nice that all these people that want other people to fight theirs wars for them- would just go and fight these wars themselfes instead of forcing other people to do it for them?
Command Chief Mater Sergeant - United States Air Force He had 100,000 men and women below him. Using our men and women as pawns once again. Israel behind it and bibi's time running out.

MARCH 22 2026 THE GOSPEL breski1 Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint John 11,1-45. Now a man was ill, Lazarus from Bethany, the village of Mary and her sister Martha. Mary was the one who had anointed the Lord with perfumed oil and dried his feet with her hair; it was her brother Lazarus who was ill. So the sisters sent word to him, saying, "Master, the one you love is ill." When Jesus heard this he said, "This illness is not to end in death, but is for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified through it." Now Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus. So when he heard that he was ill, he remained for two days in the place where he was. Then after this he said to his disciples, "Let us go back to Judea." The disciples said to him, "Rabbi, the Jews were just trying to stone you, and you want to go back there?" Jesus answered, "Are there not twelve hours in a day? If one walks during the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world. But if …More
