15,000 People Attend the Episcopal Consecration: Around fifteen thousand laypeople and a thousand priests and religious currently attend the episcopal consecration in Ecône, Switzerland. During the consecration sermon, Father Davide Pagliarani advanced the strange argument that "we belong to the same Church because we have the same faith," even though the controversy concerns questions of ecclesiastical authority rather than the content of the faith.
Tausende (aber nicht hunderttausend) Gläubige bei den heutigen Bischofsweihen
"For the holy Spirit was promised to the successors of Peter not so that they might, by his revelation, make known some new doctrine, but that, by his assistance, they might religiously guard and faithfully expound the revelation or deposit of faith transmitted by the apostles." Obedience and Loyalty is always limited by legitimate authority. The authority of the Pope is clearly defined in Vatican I, Session 4, Chapter 4, #6 (above). You can claim the SSPX is in err, but not that they are duplicitous or insincere.
1. July 2026 1. July 2026 07/01/2026 Entire blog as a free PDF eBook. I wrote about the fact that the pharmaceutical industry is a mafia more than five years ago. Now, using yesterday’s article on thedigger.co as an example—Inclisiran: How the NHS Became a Tool of Industrial Policy—you can follow, step by step, the entire process of approving an untested “drug” chosen by the mafia to unhealthily lower cholesterol levels necessary for life. The quotation marks around the word “drug” will become unnecessary if we agree with my definition of this substance: Drug – a chemical substance administered to alleviate symptoms or adjust laboratory test results to standards manipulated by the pharmaceutical industry, without triggering self-healing processes, and causing additional diseases. The issue of money in medicine is important, but it’s complex and difficult to grasp intuitively. To unpack this problem, I’ll show you the pathway of onedrug, from its discovery all the way through to its …
Leo XIV has overhauled the Vatican's financial watchdog, replacing its long-standing board-led structure with a director appointed directly by the pope. The reform, contained in a chirograph published June 30, introduces a new statute for the Authority for Financial Supervision and Information (ASIF). This body is responsible for combating money laundering and supervising the Vatican's financial system. The biggest change is institutional. Until now, ASIF was governed by a president and board - a model resembling those used by many central banks and independent financial regulators. The new statute abolishes that structure. Instead, ASIF will be headed by a director, assisted by a deputy director, both appointed by the pope for five-year terms. The authority's annual report and budget will also be submitted directly to the Council for the Economy. The statute replaces the previous board with a single papally appointed leadership, a governance model that more closely resembles that of …Kara
Vatican drapes with Carpet of Flowers for Princes of Apostles | Shalom World News The road leading to St. Peter's Square was transformed into a colourful carpet of floral art on Sunday as Rome marked the Solemnity of Saints Peter and Paul, hailed as the princes of the Apostles. Known as the Infiorata Storica, the annual tradition saw artisans and volunteers from across Italy create large religious images using flower petals, colored sand, wood shavings and other natural materials. The intricate designs, completed overnight along Via della Conciliazione, welcomed thousands of pilgrims making their way to the Vatican for the feast. The tradition dates back to 1625, when Vatican florist Benedetto Drei first decorated the entrance to St. Peter's Basilica with floral mosaics. Though it faded for centuries, the Infiorata was revived in 2011 and has since become a highlight of the city's celebration of its patron saints.
Künstler schaffen Blumen Mosaike für die historische Tradition des "Infiorata" im Rahmen der Feier des Heiligen Petrus und Paulus, Schutzpatrone der Stadt von Rom, in Rom, Italien am 29. Juni 2026. Das Wort "Infiorata" bedeutet wörtlich "mit Blumen geschmückt". Die alte Tradition wurde stammt aus dem Jahre 1625 aber aufgegeben für rund 400 Jahre vor 2011 restauriert.
The Superior General of the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X, Don Davide Pagliarani, has replied to Leo XIV, asking him to take more time before making any decision concerning the FSSPX. "One day, all the difficulties between the Holy See and the Society will be resolved." The letter. The Superior General To His Holiness Pope Leo XIV Ecône, 30 June 2026 Most Holy Father, Thank you very much for the letter that Your Holiness so kindly addressed to me. I have been deeply touched by Your paternal solicitude. For a long time, I had hoped to have the opportunity of meeting You in person, in order to express to You directly our sincere desire to serve the Church. Unfortunately, that opportunity has not presented itself. I ask only that You consider the sincerity of this intention, which is in no way feigned. Paradoxically, in the present circumstances, we believe it to be our very duty to do everything possible to mend Christ's seamless garment, torn by forces and pressures incompatible …Kara
@brhenry You have reached for a very strained reading of the SSPX response. Something along the order of what we would expect from bomb throwers. A common sense reading (which is clearly what was intended) would be "Don't act impulsively." The SSPX has never given even the slightest hint that they have ever been looking for a "compromise."
"Kicking the can down the road" has been the problem from the beginning with all disciplinary issues in the Church, including the 1962 Missal sectarian problem. Essentially, the SSPX wants the Vatican to take a modernist "inclusive, all are welcome" approach. Hopefully the Holy Father demands repentance and full reconciliation for years of schism.
Today, Leo XIV issued the Motu Proprio Confirma Fratres Tuos, which replaces the apostolic constitution In Ecclesiarum Communione, promulgated by Pope Francis in January 2023, which governed the vicariate of Rome. According to the new constitution: • The Cardinal Vicar regains primary executive authority over the Vicariate and assumes greater responsibility for its day-to-day governance while remaining accountable to the Pope. • The Episcopal Council is no longer a decision-making body, but rather a consultative one. The Cardinal Vicar will chair it rather than the Pope. • A new office, the Moderator Curiae, is established. The Moderator Curiae is appointed for a five-year term to coordinate the Vicariate's offices, oversee personnel, and manage administrative operations. • The Vicegerent continues in a supporting role while transferring many administrative coordination responsibilities to the Moderator Curiae. #newsEtjyapertd
Pope Leo XIV has appointed Monsignor Lucio Adrián Ruiz, 61, as Secretary of the Dicastery for the Service of Charity. Until now, Ruiz has served as Secretary of the Dicastery for Communication and will assume his new office on 1 September 2026. Leo XIV also appointed Massimo Ralli as Under-Secretary of the Dicastery for the Service of Charity. The transfer of Msgr. Ruiz to “Charity” clears the number-two post at the Dicastery for Communication ahead of the newly appointed female prefect - the divorced and annulled - Montse Alvarado (“It is wrong to Christianise Jews”).

The episcopal consecrations in Ecône, Switzerland, today should lead the Church to reconsider the restrictions on the Mass in the Roman rite, Cardinal Gerhard Müller told IlGiornale.it on July 1. The restrictions imposed by Traditionis Custodes (2021) have only strengthened the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (FSSPX) by giving them "a symbol of dissent against Rome". They have "almost served as propaganda" for them. According to Cardinal Müller, Traditionis Custodes "has not had a positive effect": "Using an authoritarian approach to demand blind obedience is not our way." He praised Benedict XVI's Summorum Pontificum (2007) for bringing "a great deal of peace" to the Church, adding: "One cannot prohibit the rite in its ancient form." The ancient Mass cannot be harmful when "the saints and the Fathers of the Church celebrated in this form." Cardinal Müller rejected the claim that those attached to the ancient rite reject the Second Vatican Council, arguing instead that the …Kara

Cardinal Raymond Burke criticized at the consistory the pro-homosexual Final Report of the Synod’s Study Group No. 9. AdVaticanum.com reports (June 29) that he focused on its call to privilege the "experiences" of homosexuals. Cardinal Burke described the report as manifesting “the very grave difficulty with the current direction and functioning of the Synod” and stressed that it carries weight as official synodal material. He added that, by invoking a “paradigm shift,” the report takes a path divergent from the Church’s perennial moral teaching on the homosexual condition and corresponding acts. Furthermore, the Cardinal defended the Courage apostolate supporting chastity. He criticized the report for slandering such efforts and validating agendas “in open opposition to the traditional moral doctrine of the Church.” He concluded by invoking St John Paul II’s Veritatis Splendor in defence of immutable moral norms. #newsNxgddvhpmu
Ursula von der Leyen celebrated Budapest Pride on X, writing: "The streets of Budapest are filled with joy and pride... I am so glad that the LGBTIQ+ community in Hungary can finally march without fear." One user pushed back, replying: "There was no fear even under Orbán. What are you talking about? They were safer here in Hungary than in your country. I'm tired of your nonsense about Orbán's Hungary. He was right about almost everything."

The third European People’s Party regular summit of 2025 at Hotel Sofitel, Brussels. connect@epp.eu, CC-BY-4.0 Bruno Retailleau, the president of France’s centre-right party Les Républicains (LR), has outlined a tougher immigration platform as he seeks to win over right-wing voters, especially National Rally (RN). In an interview with the right-wing magazine Valeurs Actuelles, Retailleau argued that immigration has become a liability rather than an asset for France. “Immigration is not an opportunity but a burden; it costs us far more than it brings us,” he said. Retailleau argued that “Africa’s future lies not in Europe, but on the African continent”. He rejected the idea that climate change could justify large-scale migration to Europe or “serve as a pretext for a change in civilisation”. The LR leader also reiterated his support for holding a referendum on immigration. He did not, however, specify what question would be put to French voters. In his interview, Retailleau criticised …

#nurmut - Ökumenischer CSD-Gottesdienst machte Hoffnung sichtbar
„Hab nur Mut, steh auf!“ – dieser Zuspruch aus der Geschichte des blinden Bartimäus (Markus 10,46–52) stand im Mittelpunkt des diesjährigen ökumenischen CSD-Gottesdienstes. Unter dem Motto #nurmut feierten zahlreiche Meschen einen Gottesdienst, der Mut machte, berührte und Gemeinschaft erfahrbar werden ließ. Menschen aus der LGBTQIA+-Community, Freund:innen, Familienangehörige und viele Allies (Personen, die selbst nicht queer sind, aber sich sichtbar und aktiv für die Rechte, Sicherheit und Würde von queeren Personen einsetzen) kamen zusammen, um gemeinsam zu beten, zu singen und ein Zeichen für eine Kirche zu setzen, in der Vielfalt ihren Platz hat. Die Predigt hielt Pfarrer Samuel Ebner. Ausgehend von der Geschichte des Bartimäus sprach er über den Mut, die eigene Stimme zu erheben, auch dann, wenn andere zum Schweigen auffordern. Bartimäus ließ sich nicht beirren und rief weiter nach Jesus – ein Bild, das viele Menschen aus der Community bis heute bewegt. Der Ruf „Hab nur Mut …
Official Trailer - Free Reiner - The Film Uncovering the Hidden Story Behind the “Pandemic”. In 2020, as the world grappled with what seemed like an unprecedented health crisis, many of us felt a shift—something bigger than just a virus. But what if the story we were told wasn’t the full truth? What if, beneath the headlines and official reports, there was something far more complex, even darker? This is where Dr. Reiner Fuellmich enters the picture. A respected international lawyer, he refused to accept the narrative at face value. Alongside other experts and legal minds, he launched the Corona Investigative Committee, determined to dig deeper. Their investigations gathered testimonies that challenged the fundamental truths behind the „pandemic“. Fuellmich's conclusion shook many: the COVID crisis, as painted by governments and media, might…
On June 27, an Asian cardinal criticized at the consistory the continuing restrictions on the Mass in the Roman rite, reports IlGiornale.it. The Cardinal argued that if they were lifted, it would be much easier to attract faithful prepared to leave the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X. There are three dozen Asian cardinals. The most outspoken in support of the ancient Roman rite are Cardinals Malcolm Ranjith of Colombo, Sri Lanka, and William Goh of Singapore. Picture: AI, #newsFeyawfwlyc
