Statue of Our Lady Remained Untouched After a Fire: A fire severely damaged sections of Mother of Christ Specialist Hospital in Enugu, Nigeria, on May 10, destroying offices, hospital equipment, and part of the children’s ward. Hospital administrator Sister Maria Chinaemerem Igwe said the blaze may have been caused by a power surge. Despite the destruction, a statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary near the administrator’s office remained completely untouched, even though nearby objects melted and burned. Sister Maria described the event as a miracle talking to EWTN.

The Scottish Diocese of Aberdeen, headed by Bishop Hugh Gilbert, published on May 21 a short press release on the Transalpine Redemptorists: “In the wake of various concerning statements and alleged actions of the Sons of the Most Holy Redeemer, the Diocese of Aberdeen has for some months been pursuing a legal process, following the Canon Law of the Church. When this process is completed, the Diocese will make its conclusions known. The matter has also been referred to the competent authorities in Rome. As such, while the matters rest in effect sub judice, no comment is appropriate at this time.” #newsKimviaxmkz
22. May 2026 22. May 2026 05/22/2026 Entire blog as a free PDF eBook. Forget about bringing democracy to Cuba. Try bringing democracy to the United States. This is how Caitlin Johnstone concludes her article, published on Wednesday: American Democracy Does Not Exist. In the Kentucky Republican primary, Ed Gallrein—backed by Trump and funded by the pro-Israel lobby—challenged the anti-war incumbent Congressman Thomas Massie, which essentially represents a clash between a foreign policy based on “America First” slogans and the current administration’s policy, which is based on “Israel First” slogans. This challenge was backed by AIPAC with a record sum of $35 million. Pro-Israel groups have spent up to $35 million on a campaign against Thomas Massie in an effort to unseat him from Congress. When the elections go toward whoever can afford to spend the most on manipulating and deceiving the public into voting their way, that’s not democracy. That’s plutocracy – writes Caitlin Johnstone …

Worse than Germany: During a recent wedding at Saint Martin Church in Aubière, Diocese of Clermont-Ferrand, France, a deacon sang Claude François’s song “Cette année-là” (“That Year”) in front of the altar. The guests are jumping up and down, applauding and singing along. The Diocese of Clermont has been ruined by Archbishop François Kalist since 2016.

[St. Anthony of Padua XII-XIII Century AD; born: Lisbon, Kingdom of Portugal/died: Padua, Holy Roman Empire; (aged 35); powerful preaching, expert knowledge of scripture, and undying love and devotion to the poor and the sick; canonized less than a year after his death; Doctor of the Church] 13 ~ The Apparition of the Holy Child The Friars Minor had no monastery within the walls of Padua, the nearest one, at Arcella, outside the city, being about three-quarters of an hour s walk. It often happened that, owing to the gates being closed early in the evening, it was impossible for the saint on account of his missionary work, to return home. But he easily found a night s shelter among his friends, who were only too happy to have him for their guest. Tito Borghese, Count of Campo San Pietro, one of the saint s dearest friends, was among the few whom he honored the most with his presence. This noble man had so great a veneration for him that he carefully noted down all that took place during …More
" Once, when thus visiting him, he noticed an extra ordinary light piercing through the chinks of the saint s apartments. Anxious to discover the cause of this, he drew near, and to his great surprise saw through the cracks of the door St. Anthony holding a beautiful child in his arms, whom he was lovingly caressing. His host was first at a loss to understand how this lovely infant had entered the apartment of his guest, but soon discovered, through his majestic bearing and the rapture of Si. Anthony, that the child was no other than our divine Lord, who, under this form, had come to console, encourage and strengthen His faithful servant."
Worse than Germany:Bishop John Stowe of Kentucky, USA, compared the founders of the homosexual group ‘New Ways Ministry’ - which promotes homosexual “marriage” and “gender transitions” - to St. Paul, St. Francis of Assisi, Mother Teresa, and other Catholic figures. In a May 21 podcast the prelate said that the "Holy Spirit" might do something new: “Isn't this what Francis of Assisi experienced when his exuberance of spirit moved him to renounce the materialism and status that had defined his life and to embrace the outcast and the lepers? The Holy Spirit empowered him to discern how to rebuild the church by fidelity to the gospel and inclusion of the poor. Isn't this what Paul of Tarsus experienced when he saw no reason to exclude the Gentiles from this universal community? […] Isn't this opening of windows and doors what the founding leaders and supporters of 'New Way's Ministry' were doing as they embrace those wounded by rejection because of their sexual orientation? Since …More

The Cathedral of Ss Peter and Paul in Troyes, France These pictures of the cathedral of Ss Peter and Paul in Troyes, France, about 100 miles to the south south-east of Paris, were taken by a friend during a recent visit. If you are a regular reader of NLM, you know we generally seek to accentuate the positive, and that isn’t going to change. However, this photo set does also include pictures of the comically hideous modern fixtures which have defaced parts of the church’s interior, as a reminder of some of the reasons why the New Pentecost™ turned out a little different from the previous one. They are all grouped together in the lower part of the post under the label “The Ugly Stuff”, so if you don’t want to see them, that’s where you should stop scrolling down. You have been warned... The current Gothic building is the fourth version of the cathedral, begun in the very last years of the 12th century after a huge fire that destroyed much of the town in 1188. Like many such projects …

"I am not married and I don't have children, but I am not alone. I also have a partner, a woman, who supports me in my role as a priest", Munich parish priest Rainer Maria Schießler told Katholisch.de on May 22. He added that he stands by his way of life, saying: "You don't just choose a partnership; it develops because people are sympathetic to one another, and ultimately, it's a great gift. For me, at any rate, it gives me tremendous strength and enormous support in my work and in my celibate [!] way of life." He continued: "As a priest, I have just as much a right to my private life." When asked if he had received enquiries from Munich Archbishop Reinhard Marx regarding his public comments about his "female partner", Rev Schießler replied: "No, there was never anything to hide or explain." Rev Schießler is notorious for blessing homosexuals (pictured) and causing liturgical scandals. #newsDbopvakddv
What do these scandals seek to achieve? To discredit the Church and assassinate souls. To cause more people to be lost—for when people witness the bad example set by their pastors, they use it to justify their own sins, and thus join in the rebellion against God.
In the Prophecy of Saint Francis of Assisi, we are told that scandals will increase during the usurpation of the Papacy; and evidently, there is no one in Rome to restore order—for they all belong to the same apostate, homosexual sect that rebels against God, promoting adultery, sodomy, divorce, the abolition of celibacy, female ordination, the worship of false gods from false religions, and so forth. In other words, the presence of those scandals that go unpunished confirms to us that there is no legitimate Pope—and much less a defender of the Faith.

Acerra chiama, il Papa risponde: il 23 maggio arriva Acerra si prepara a un abbraccio che profuma di storia e di riscatto. La visita di papa Leone ad Acerra, fissata per il prossimo 23 maggio, non è solo un evento da segnare sul calendario, ma un grido che parte dal cuore della Terra dei Fuochi. Il vescovo Antonio Di Donna lo ha detto chiaramente in una conferenza stampa affollata: il Papa non arriva per risolvere tutto con un tocco di magia, ma per dare voce a chi per anni è rimasto invisibile. In una terra che ha pagato un conto salatissimo all’inquinamento, l’attesa è febbrile. Tra misure di sicurezza imponenti e migliaia di transenne, la città si trasforma nel palcoscenico di una speranza che non vuole morire, pronta a riaccogliere quel filo di giustizia che si era spezzato durante la pandemia.
Retired Swiss Bishop Marian Eleganti wrote a blog post on May 21 about the synodal “occupational therapy” ordered by the Vatican. Main points slightly shortened. - What comes from Rome — the workshop behind the universally proclaimed synodal process — is human wisdom. Apparently, its protagonists have nothing better to do than keep issuing instructions to local churches on how to manage and sustain this synodal process, a stillbirth from the start. - It is the full-time actors of this dysfunctional, committee-run Church who busy themselves - at great expense - with commissioned management tools and synodal papers. - Nothing comes of it except ever more documents to read, heterodox study results, and newly invented committees — on top of the many already existing ones. - By now, it has become clear what this process aims at: restructuring the Church’s longstanding doctrinal positions on divorce and remarriage, homosexuality and the broader queer agenda, the synodal democratization of …More
