The superiors of the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X published today another Open Letter to Leo XIV and to the Cardinals. The letter is no call to action nor a negotiating proposal but rather another public reaffirmation of the Fraternity's long-standing position. Attached is a 28-page document (English below) with the Catholic faith. This document repeatedly affirms strong papal authority adding that the pope possesses "supreme, full, immediate, and universal jurisdiction". The letter. Most Holy Father, Most Reverend Eminences, On the eve of the Consistory at the end of this month, and just days before the episcopal consecrations scheduled for 1 July in Écône, it seems to us that the time has come for the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X to make a full profession of Catholic Faith, which we wish to place in the hands of Your Holiness and each one of the Cardinals. Today the Church suffers under the pressure of new forces, coming both from within and without, which push her in …Bontsi
On March 14, a Saturday, for the first time, a woman led a liturgical celebration in place of the “Sunday” Eucharist in the Cathedral of Bozen/Bolzano, Italy. Italian media spoke of "la celebrante" ("the celebrant"). Maja Clara and has been leading such liturgies for about ten years. She works as a journalist at the state press agency. “As a child, I wanted to be a pastor,” she says. The Diocese of Bolzano-Bressanone, which covers the German speaking South Tyrol, is run by Bishop Ivo Muser. In the diocese, about 500 (!) laypeople are entrusted with this ministry, nearly two-thirds are women. The Diocese has 500k Catholics and about 350 priests in 280 parishes. This makes less than 1,5k nominal Catholics per priest. Picture: Maja Clara, AI piture, #newsTaahryrpwd
This has been going on here in the United States for over 30 years. Deacons were never asked to have these services, only women were permitted to do so.
The issue of fulfilling the "Sunday Obligation" was not addressed in this article. Was it reported elsewhere that this liturgy fulfilled that requirement?
Italian historian Roberto de Mattei reflected on the announced episcopal consecrations by the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (FSSPX) in an article published on CorrispondenzaRomana.it on June 24. "State of Necessity" Cannot Be Self-Judged For De Mattei, the state of necessity argument is simultaneously "the weakest and the strongest argument". His question is: "Who has the authority to verify the existence of such a state and determine its beginning and end?" He argues that if the FSSPX can independently determine when a state of necessity exists, then it also implicitly claims the authority to determine when that state ends. That would place the FSSPX in a position of judging the Holy See rather than being judged by it. De Mattei acknowledges that Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre was not a speculative theologian or canonist, but a pastor of souls: "The decisive criterion for him was not the assertion of a right proper to the FSSPX, but the spiritual need of the faithful."

Xalxo spoke with UcaNews.com about the Eastern meditation method yoga. He said that most Catholic schools in the Archdiocese practice yoga daily “to build up positive energy, good health, and mental stability.” “There is no opposition to yoga in our schools. There are instances of our priests and nuns practicing it and teaching others,” he said. Cardinal Ratzinger wrote in 1989 that Eastern methods including yoga are "not free from dangers and errors" harmful to Catholic spirituality. A Product …Bontsi

Miserere Mei Deus. www.senusfidelius.us The Latin text runs thus: 1. Miserere mei, Deus: secundum magnam misericordiam tuam. 2. Et secundum multitudinem miserationum tuarum, dele iniquitatem meam. 3. Amplius lava me ab iniquitate mea: et a peccato meo munda me. 4. Quoniam iniquitatem meam ego cognosco: et peccatum meum contra me est semper. 5. Tibi soli peccavi, et malum coram te feci: ut iustificeris in sermonibus tuis, et vincas cum iudicaris. 6. Ecce enim in inquitatibus conceptus sum: et in peccatis concepit me mater mea. 7. Ecce enim veritatem dilexisti: incerta et occulta sapientiae tuae manifestasti mihi. 8. Asperges me, Domine, hyssopo, et mundabor: lavabis me, et super nivem dealbabor. 9. Auditui meo dabis gaudium et laetitiam: et exsultabunt ossa humiliata. 10. Averte faciem tuam a peccatis meis: et omnes iniquitates meas dele. 11. Cor mundum crea in me, Deus: et spiritum rectum innova in visceribus meis. 12. Ne proiicias me a facie tua: et spiritum sanctum tuum ne auferas a me. …Bontsi

2 Kings 25:1-12 War is not from God. Evil is a separation from God's love. Matthew 8:1-4 Jesus reached out his hand and touched him, saying, “I will do it. Be made clean.” He who is pure, through his love, purifies the person. Biblical texts: NAB-RE Normand Thomas.

The answer, McCullough says, is visible in the data: after two decades of gradually rising cancer rates, 2021 marked a sharp inflection upward — the same year mass COVID vaccination rolled out. Excerpt from an article published on Wednesday on thefocalpoints.com: Post-Jab Cancer Wave. A study conducted by Japanese scientists has once again shown that mRNA “vaccines” against COVID-19 accelerate the spread of tumors and make their progression more aggressive, thereby drastically shortening patients’ life expectancy. The study confirms that mRNA vaccines cause “turbo cancer”—a phenomenon that has long been dismissed as a “conspiracy theory” or “misinformation” by health authorities, the mainstream media, and dubious “fact-checkers.” I just received a new article by Sascha Łatypowa: The Silent War of Eugenics. …
Bishop Donal McKeown of Derry, Ireland, has warned the faithful about "SSPX Resistance Ireland. The splinter group is linked to the late Bishop Richard Williamson (1940-2025) and apparently one of the several sect bishops he consecrated, Monsignor Giacomo Ballini for Ireland. Bishop McKeown sent a circular to parishioners in mid-March, but didn't name the priest working in his diocese: "The priests of SSPX Resistance Ireland are administering the sacraments, but they are doing so illegally - that is, without the necessary faculties and the approval of the Church," Bishop McKeown wrote: "I urge all the faithful to remain steadfast in communion with the Church, united with the Holy Father and the bishops who are in full communion with him." Speaking to Rte.ie (March 30), Bishop McKeown added that he had been contacted by an English diocese that had received information that a defrocked priest who was a member of SSPX Resistance Ireland may be working in the area of his diocese.

Did German Chancellor Frederick Merz book an $8000 only fans private session with a transgender model during the G7 summit? Does this remind you of Keir Starmer and the Ukrainian rent boys ?

Francis accepted on November 1 the resignation of Catanduva Bishop Valdir Mamede, 62, Brazil. In an obscure article, Metropoles.com (November 2) says Mamede was asked to resign because of an involvement "in cases of harassment" or "allegations of moral and sexual harassment against priests and seminarians" or "covering up crimes by other priests within the Church." In March, Mamede ordered all 34 parish priests to help paying for a fine of R$500,000 ($100K) imposed on Father Osvaldo Donizete da Silva (Father Barrinha). The money was for a victim of sexual abuse dating back to 2013. #newsOjwcxjyotq
Maybe it's the case of another homo bishop . The next Pope coming soon should fire ALL of the Bergoglio staff in the Vatican, and all his bishops he appointed.
