U.S. and Canadian Jesuits Consolidate Novitiates

A decline in religious vocations has prompted the Jesuits in the United States and Canada to restructure the way they train future members of the pro-homosexual order.
The Jesuit Conference of Canada and the United States has announced that it will reduce the number of its novitiates from five to two by 2028. This decision was communicated in a letter dated 9 July and signed by the superiors of the conference's five provinces.
Under the new arrangement, one novitiate will be located in Detroit, Michigan, serving the USA Midwest, USA East and Canada provinces, while the second will remain in Culver City, California, serving the USA West and USA Central and Southern provinces. Each facility is expected to accommodate up to 30 novices.
"Running five novitiates takes an awful lot of high-quality Jesuit personnel," Fr. Joseph Daoust, SJ, superior of the Detroit Jesuit community, told DetroitCatholic.com on July 10. "Each novitiate requires three to four experienced Jesuits dedicated to …More

Just keep dressing like burned out hippies and teaching heresy and see how much lower your membership becomes.

POPE LEO AGREES WITH ME: AG 7 IS ALIGNED WITH EENS . LG 16 IS NOT AN EXCEPTION FOR EITHER.VC2 IS DOGMATIC (AG 7/EENS) AND ECCLESIOCENTRIC (AG7/EENS).

POPE LEO AGREES WITH ME: AG 7 IS ALIGNED WITH EENS . LG 16 IS NOT AN EXCEPTION FOR EITHER. VC2 IS DOGMATIC (AG 7/EENS) AND ECCLESIOCENTRIC (AG7/EENS).
Pope Leo is aligned doctrinally with the SSPX General Chapter Statement 2012.
ONE QUESTION
The pope would agree with the traditionalists. He has to be asked only one question. His reply will be “Yes”. Pope Leo simply has to be asked, “Does Lumen Gentium 16 (being saved in invincible ignorance) refer to a hypothetical and invisible case in 2026?” He will reply, “Yes”.
Ask any cardinal the same question .The answer will always be, yes. Ask even a non Catholic or non Christian the same question. The answer will be an obvious-yes.
He cannot meet or see someone now in Heaven saved without faith and baptism and instead in invincible ignorance.
A journalist would clarify, , “Holy Father, when Vatican Council II refers to being saved in invincible ignorance ( I.I ) and the baptism of desire (LG 14), the reference is to a hypothetical …More

US secretary Rubio invites India, 60 nations to summit on 'far-left terrorism'

Rubio visited India in May 2026, during which he also met with Prime Minister Modi. US secretary of state Marco Rubio has invited senior ministers from more than 60 countries, including India, to a meeting next week focused on what the Trump administration describes as the "resurgence of transnational far-left terrorism", according to documents reviewed by The Washington Post.The July 16 meeting at the US State Department is expected to bring together foreign and interior ministers from Europe, Latin America and Asia as Washington seeks to build international cooperation against what it considers an emerging security threat. The invitation list reportedly includes India, Indonesia, Singapore, most European countries and several major Latin American nations. The initiative, however, has triggered unease within sections of the US government and among some allies. According to The Washington Post, career and political officials, European diplomats and independent analysts have questioned …

Catholics should be able to articulate when liberation theology, an error according to Catholic teaching, crosses over to sovereignty and the right to self defense. And vice versa.

How Severe Is the Priest Shortage in French Dioceses?

French dioceses face a worsening vocation crisis, despite claims of improvement in seminary recruitment, Laurent Dastros writes on July 9 on Substack.com.
Dastros notes that, as of 2026, three French dioceses - Aire-et-Dax, Le Puy-en-Velay, and Le Havre - have gone between 12 and 14 years without a diocesan priestly ordination.
Carcassonne et Narbonne ended a 19-year gap in 2025 with the ordination of a 51-year-old candidate.
Annecy and Rodez could join this list next year if they continue without new ordinations.
Longer-Term Picture
Dastros calculates that between 2011 and 2026, only three dioceses recorded a single diocesan priestly ordination: Carcassonne et Narbonne, Rodez et Vabres, and Pamiers, Couserans et Mirepoix.
Based on the assumption that priests remain in active ministry for approximately 50 years, he estimates that, if current trends continue, each of these dioceses could eventually have only about three native diocesan priests.
He further identifies seven dioceses that …More

What rubbish. The SSPX is not in schism. The Vatican hierarchy are the schismatics. They can worship pagan idols in public, allow Chinese consecrations without papal approval, promote synodal heresy, ratify adultery, bless schismatic Anglican false bishops, but somehow the SSPX are the bad guys? I don’t think so Father Murray. You are WAY off the mark.

‘I am disenchanted with the hierarchy of the Church of England.’ Chaplain Bernard Randall says it has been a seven-year battle to clear his name after he was unfairly dismissed for delivering a sermon on identity politics and transgenderism.
