A Massachusetts family says the state took custody of their teenage daughter. The parents say it happened after they refused to affirm her as a boy, citing their Catholic faith.
Joseph and Arlene Kutzko say a counsellor at Algonquin Regional High School socially "transitioned" their daughter Sophie with a male name and pronouns without their knowledge, then reported the family to the Department of Children and Families (DCF).
Their attorney, Vernadette Broyles, says an abuse allegation against the father was found unsupported.
The state now has guardianship, while a restraining order prevents Sophie’s parents and older brother from contacting her.
The family says DCF sought to administer high-dose testosterone, but a judge has temporarily blocked the treatment as they fight the case. The next court hearing is October 29.

In Canada, Abdul Aziz Kawam, an Islamic scum born in Saudi Arabia, asked a Canadian on the street if he was Muslim.
When the Canadian replied no, Kawam stabbed him, after invoking Allah.
Kawam then got on a bus and tried to slit the throat of another Canadian.
Kawam told the police that he had done it "in the name of the Islamic State" to which he had pledged allegiance.
His two victims survived.
Kawam was convicted of attempted murder in connection with a terrorist organization.
This is what the traitors who lead us force us to accept in the name of a humanism that they systematically exclude their own people from.

Toronto Archdiocese cracks down on the traditional Latin Masses.
Cardinal Francis Leo of Toronto, Canada, is implementing 'Traditionis Custodes', effective next Sunday.
VoxCantor.blogspot.com published a terrifying detail: One Sunday per month, the Novus Ordo must be said.
At the parish St. Vincent, the old high altar will be used. At the parish Holy Family the Novus Ordo will be presided over with the back to God facing the people.
And: No other sacraments are permitted according to the 1962 usage.
There are four major parish churches in the Archdiocese of Toronto celebrating the Roman rite:
- St. Lawrence the Martyr Parish — Scarborough
- St. Patrick’s Parish — Schomberg
- Holy Family Parish — Toronto
- St. Vincent de Paul Parish — Toronto
The Masses at Schomberg and Scarborough have existed for over 40 years.
All four parishes have sufficient Novus Ordo Eucharists in various languages.
The numbers are interesting, too. At these four Masses and two celebrated by the Priestly Fraternity …Siwaju sii

They aren't cracking down on the TLM, they are cracking down on the Catholic faith because they hate it and it all stems from the hatred of Christ.

The Visitation nuns are preparing to leave Nevers, France, after more than four centuries.
The remaining sisters are emptying their monastery. Furniture, crockery, tables, cupboards and other belongings are being sold in two “vide-couvent” sales, on September 12 and 19.
The departure follows a steep decline in numbers. By early 2025 only four nuns remained. On March 15, 2025 two elderly sisters left. At the time, remaining Sister Marie-Odile stressed that this did not yet mean closure, joking that the priests’ violet vestments were “not those of a funeral.”
Eighteen months later, the disposal of the convent’s contents signals the community’s approaching departure.
The exact date on which the last sisters will leave has not been announced, nor has the future of the building.
The Visitation Order was founded in Annecy in 1610 by St Francis de Sales and St Jane Frances de Chantal. Visitandines established a monastery in Nevers in 1620, making it one of the order’s earliest foundations.

Autumn Ember Days is coming!
Today (September 14) is the Exaltation of the Holy Cross. Autumn Ember Days follows this feast day. I don't know what days we fast for 2026! My guess is Sept 16, 18, 19. Some sources say Sept 23, 25, 26. It probably does not matter which week you choose. I intend to fast starting the Wednesday, September 16.

Leo XIV increases salaries for cardinals and senior Vatican officials.
Today, Leo XIV has abolished the pay cuts introduced by Francis in 2021. Francis had ordered a 10% salary cut for cardinals working for the Holy See and an 8% reduction for senior officials and curial secretaries as the Vatican faced financial difficulties. Other clergy and religious employees initially faced a 3% cut, which was abolished in 2025.
Leo XIV’s new motu proprio, effective September 1, abrogates the 2021 decree in its entirety.
He claimed the measures had been necessary due to the “exceptional challenge of the pandemic,” but could now be superseded as the Holy See and Vatican City pursue economic sustainability “through different instruments.”

Leo XIV Approves Maronite Archbishop of Damascus
Today, Pope Leo XIV has approved the election of Sharbel Ghattas Maroun as the new Maronite Catholic archbishop of Damascus. A Lebanese-born priest, he has spent much of his ministry in the United States.
Archbishop Maroun, 64, was elected by the Synod of Bishops of the Maronite Church. He succeeds Archbishop Samir Nassar, 76, whose resignation was accepted by the synod.
Since 2020, Maroun has served as protosyncellus, a senior position comparable to vicar general, of the Maronite Eparchy of Our Lady of Lebanon of Los Angeles.
Born January 6, 1962, in Kfarselwan, Lebanon, Maroun briefly worked for Crédit Libanais bank.

RARE MOVE by a Virginia Bishop Ahead of Election Day "Catholic Bishop Michael Burbidge says he has never before asked every priest in his diocese to do what he requested this weekend: read a letter at Mass urging Catholics to oppose two Virginia constitutional amendments on abortion and marriage." "Across 70 parishes serving more than 430,000 Catholics in Northern Virginia, worshippers heard Burbidge warn against what he called 'two dangerous ballot initiatives'—proposed constitutional amendments that Virginians will decide Nov. 3. Early voting begins Friday."

Archbishop Aldo Cavalli, 79, a former Apostolic Nuncio and the Apostolic Visitor for the parish of Medjugorje, administered Confirmation to two young Irish Travellers in the Adoration Chapel in Medjugorje, reports David Murgia on IlSegnoDiGiona. According to pictures, the women wore inappropriate short white pyjamas. Murgia says the outfits reflect festive dress customary in the Irish Traveller community. He claims to have verified the circumstances through multiple sources and that the photographs are authentic.

@Boanerges Boanerges You probably have never been in Medjugorje. The chapel is very recognizable as the "adoration chapel"; no doubt at all. The photo is authentic. If not, the parish of Medjugorje would have protested on their website and the publisher of the photo's would face a trial in court. MEDJUGORJE, ABITI PROVOCANTI DURANTE LE CRESIME? …
Mgr. Cavalli is a "believer" of the synodal church and according to this "church" one should adept foreign cultural elements of other groups into the liturgy.... (in spite of the instruction of Vatican II that modesty in clothing is always required in church and this requirement was - until now - always observed in Medjugorje.

The only question is WHICH church is this

Leo XIV Accepts Secularised Mitre as Gift: Rev. Tom McCarthy, a Chicago priest and fellow Augustinian, gave Leo XIV a Chicago White Sox “Pope Hat” at the Vatican. The mitre-shaped hat was originally produced en masse by the Chicago White Sox baseball team as a giveaway for their August 11 game. Leo XIV has been a White Sox fan since childhood and attended Game 1 of the 2005 World Series.

Prevost is the 'pope' of the Chicago White Sox, but NOT of the Catholic Church of Christ as traditionally handed down, because he was unlawfully installed by Bergoglio to complete Bergoglio's work of destruction.
