Archbishop who considered Francis antipope says SSPX excommunications are invalid

Jul 9, 2026
Archbishop Jan Paweł Lenga said the excommunications are evidence that the Vatican has departed from Christ and authentic faith.
Archbishop Jan Paweł Lenga, a former bishop in Kazakhstan known for surviving communism and his previous outspoken criticism of Pope Francis and the direction of the Catholic hierarchy, sharply criticized the Vatican’s excommunication of the priests and laity of the Society of St. Pius X (SSPX) after its July 1 consecration of four new bishops without a papal mandate while praising the order.
In a statement, Archbishop Lenga, 76, slammed the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith’s (DDF) under Cardinal Victor Manuel Fernández decree that excommunicated the Society’s newly consecrated bishops, all clergy, and in some cases, its laity, claiming this is proof that the Vatican has departed from Christ and the authentic faith. The archbishop noted that the SSPX had tried for years to make contact with the Vatican, which he noted has …Gehiago

Leo XIV Wants Church with Open Doors and for "Everyone": Today, Pope Leo XIV held a lunch for 200 people in need from the Diocese of Rome in the Gardens of Castel Gandolfo. He said: "I've not prepared a speech, because, I am hungry - hungry for justice, for authentic charity, for a Church that knows how to open its doors, welcome people, and care for everyone." The guests enjoyed a meal featuring pasta all'amatriciana, roast veal, other Italian specialities and strawberries with whipped cream for dessert.

Speaking off-the-cuff at lunch with 200 poor people from the Diocese of Rome, and welcoming them to the Pontifical gardens of Castel Gandolfo, Pope Leo XIV says: “I didn’t prepare a speech because I am hungry. I’m hungry for justice, I’m hungry for authentic charity, I’m hungry for a Church that knows how to opens its doors, welcomes and looks after everyone.”

Goofy, the Church has always been open for everyone. But Our Lord said, "If you love Me, keep My commandments." It's not that hard to understand, Leo.

Fr. Michael Mary denounces Vatican II’s ‘new religion’ ahead of consecration for Transalpine Redemptorists

Riaan Van Zyl
July 10, 2026
'It is not the same Catholic Faith that the world had always known,' he said in a recent declaration.
Just weeks before his scheduled consecration on July 25, Fr. Michael Mary, F.SS.R., has published what amounts to his final public explanation for accepting the episcopacy from Bishop Pierre Roy, presenting the ceremony not as a personal honor but as a necessary response to what he describes as an unprecedented crisis in the Church.
In a declaration released on July 8, the co-founder of the Congregation of the Sons of the Most Holy Redeemer, who is now 73, reflected upon a lifetime spent in the Catholic faith and on the convictions that have brought him to this moment.
“Our Holy Mother the Catholic Church has been and, by God’s grace, will ever be the great love of my life,” he writes, before lamenting what he sees as the devastation that followed the Second Vatican Council. “The devastation, the destruction, is tangible … And this has come to pass because …Gehiago

Munich Cathedral Hosted First Homosexual Service for “CSD” March

On 28 June, the closing day of Munich "Pride" weekend, the Cathedral of Munich, Germany, hosted its first Christopher Street Day (CSD) Youth Liturgy.
The liturgy included scripture readings, prayers, music and personal blessings. The event was organised jointly by the Cathedral Parish, the Catholic youth organisation BDKJ, and the Queer Pastoral Ministry of the Archdiocese of Munich and Freising.
The organisers of the 'Catholic' cathedral service also participated in the Munich homosex march.
BDKJ members marched carrying a large rainbow banner bearing the words 'Love is no sin'. They also carried a large orange banner depicting Jesus Christ with the slogan 'Jesus would dance with us at CSD!'.
Both banners displayed the BDKJ logo to identify them as part of the organisation's official participation in the homosex march.

Your Heart Determines Your Eternal Family
The true measure of being a child of God is not just baptism, but striving to do God’s will, as exemplified by the woman in the first reading. This striving involves living out our baptismal vows, seeking God’s will, and serving others with charity. God desires a genuine relationship with us, and this is achieved through our efforts to align our lives with His will, empowered by the Holy Spirit.

🌈 Bishops Attack FSSPX - "Invalid Sacraments", "Abuse of Eucharist"

Many bishops in the USA (and elsewhere) forbid Catholics from attending Mass in chapels belonging to the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X, yet they welcome schismatics and homosexuals. Three examples:
Arlington Bishop: FSSPX Sacraments Are "Invalid"
Bishop Michael Burbidge of Arlington, Virginia, instructed Catholics to “avoid participating in the activities of the FSSPX.”
In a letter dated 8 July, he wrote that "any celebrations of the sacraments of confession and matrimony by the FSSPX are invalid, and the administration of other sacraments is illicit".
In September 2025, Bishop Burbidge said that his meeting with the Greek Orthodox Patriarch Bartholomew was “incredible,” and marked a “historic moment of Christian unity”.
Covington Bishop: FSSPX Mass Is "Abuse of Eucharist"
Bishop John Iffert of Covington, Kentucky, said in a recent statement that the sacraments from the FSSPX are “illicit”:

Doesn't Rome recognize the confessions and marriages of the schismatic Orthodox as valid? So if the SSPX is in schism, it should be given the same favor.

AI is magnificent at running large simulations, the output of which is manly rubbish but sometimes innovate gems. This consumes energy. The larger the output the larger the sort through is required to find the gems. This consumes exponentially more energy. There's the rub. It's a back hole.
