The Archdiocese of Utrecht has rejected as false rumours that Cardinal Willem Eijk, 73, could have asked Pope Leo XIV during an audience on Monday to accept his early resignation as Archbishop. “These reports are false. He has not offered his resignation,” the archdiocese told the Dutch newspaper Katholiek Nieuwsblad on Wednesday. An archdiocesan spokesman added that there was no basis for such speculation. The audience attracted attention because Eijk has experienced health problems in recent months and didn't attend the consistories in January and June. The archdiocese also provided an update on the cardinal’s health. “It is known that Cardinal Eijk struggled with health problems last winter,” the spokesman said. His recovery had taken longer than initially hoped, but was now progressing well. According to the archdiocese, Eijk is expected to resume his duties fully on September 1. #newsKxqihmxlwe

World’s Oldest Trappist Monk, 108, Survivor of Communist Persecution, Has Died. Fr. Benedict Chao, the world’s oldest Trappist monk, died on July 31 at Our Lady of Joy Abbey on Lantau Island, Hong Kong, at the age of 108. Born in Hebei, China, in 1918, Chao entered monastic life in 1941 and was ordained a priest in 1949. He belonged to a generation of Chinese Trappists whose monasteries were destroyed during Communist persecution. After fleeing mainland China, Chao and fellow monks lived for a time in Canada and the United States before rebuilding their monastic community in Hong Kong.

French Film Turns Catholic Faith Into "Joke": The French film Tombé du ciel, due in cinemas on August 12, follows Ilyes, a young Muslim from Roubaix who ends up at a Catholic boarding school in Burgundy, where his unfamiliarity with Catholic beliefs and practices becomes a recurring source of blasphemies about the faith. In one sequence, Ilyes, unable to have breakfast, casually eats unconsecrated hosts from a packet intended for Sunday Mass. “He is eating the whole Body of Christ!” another character exclaims, referring to the Catholic belief in the Eucharist. Ilyes responds by joking that people should not say he has “eaten people.” He is then ordered to go immediately to confession, which becomes another “joke” when he mistakes the confessional for a cupboard.
A BOYCOTTER : Le film "Tombé du ciel" - Il n’y a rien d’innocent dans ce genre de film, qui sortira le 12 août prochain, il participe à cette banalisation qui transforme progressivement le christianisme, ses religieux, ses rites et jusqu’à l’eucharistie en objets de dérision
Welcome Jesus before that it be too late Yes, God wants all men to be saved, but saved during the life he gives them here on earth, because there is no other. After this life comes eternity, eternal life. I repeat this because even priests find it hard to accept: there is no third life between time and eternity in which we can still secure our salvation. As God teaches through the mouth of Saint Paul: At the acceptable time I heard you; on the day of salvation I helped you. Behold, now is the acceptable time; behold, now is the day of salvation. Now, not tomorrow. That is why the Apostle says: Work out your salvation with fear and trembling. Why work out your salvation with fear and trembling, if you can still do it in death, once you are free from the cares and temptations of this world?
Mónica Astorga spent almost 40 years as a Discalced Carmelite nun in Argentina and became prioress of her convent in Neuquén. She became internationally known for her work with transvestites because of Pope Francis' encouragement. Astorga meanwhile left the convent and trained in hairdressing. The Vatican formally accepted her departure from the Discalced Carmelites in 2024. She “still” considers herself a believer – yet without attending a Eucharist regularly. Long Connection with Bergoglio Her connection with Jorge Mario Bergoglio, the future Pope Francis, began much earlier. Astorga says she met him when he was a Jesuit in Buenos Aires in 1987, nearly two decades before she began working with transvestites. She later described Bergoglio's support for her as “unconditional.” Beginning Her Work with Transvestites Astorga began assisting transvestites in 2006, after one such guy sought help in a parish. Her clientele included prostitutes, people living with HIV, and impoverished or …Көбірек

Laurent Michelon Officiel @LAURENTMICHEL0N The recent closure of the Israeli consulate in Chengdu is described in the mainstream media as simply a consequence of China’s positions on the Palestinian issue—particularly the ongoing genocide in Gaza—as well as on the Israeli-American aggression against Iran. The Israeli consul issued an enthusiastic statement about friendship with China, as if the closure were merely temporary for renovations. What the article is careful not to mention is the recent espionage case involving an Israeli company in Chengdu, which was thwarted at the last minute by Chinese authorities just as it was about to succeed. Reported in Chinese media and on social media, this case was, of course, completely ignored by Western media. In broad terms, in 2023, the Israeli embassy in China acted as an intermediary between a Tel Aviv-based data company and a technology firm in Chengdu, under the pretext of jointly building a “data processing center” intended to optimize …Көбірек

"Blasio also spoke of Heaven, the last place into which he had been taken ; but he spoke almost like St. Paul, who, having been ravished to the third Heaven, whether with his body or without his body he knew not, there heard mysterious words which no mortal tongue could repeat. What most attracted the attention of the child was the immense multitude of angels that surrounded the throne of God, and the incomparable beauty of the blessed Virgin Mary, elevated above all the choirs of angels."
Chapter XXI ~ Diversity of the Pains — Blasio Raised from the Dead by St. Bernardine — Venerable Prances of Pampeluna and the Pen of Pire — St. Corpreus and King Malachy. The celebrated Blasio Massei, who was raised from the dead by St. Bernardine of Sienna, saw that there was great diversity in the pains of Purgatory. The account of this miracle is given at length in the Acta Sanctorum (Appendix, May 20). A short time after the canonisation of St. Bernardine of Sienna, there died at Cascia, in the kingdom of Naples, a child aged eleven years, named Blasio Massei. His parents had inspired him with the same devotion which they them- selves had towards this new saint, and the latter was not slow to recompense it. The day after his death, when the body was being carried to the grave, Blasio awoke as from a profound slumber, and said that St. Bemardine had restored him to life, in order to relate the wonders which the saint had shown him in the other world. We can easily understand the …Көбірек

U.S. sailors are freaking out off the coast of Iran—literally: “I hope I don’t wake up tomorrow,” write the terrified sailors as they lose their minds. What happened? A nine-month voyage to the shores of Iran. ---- Well, we’ve actually finished fighting.

New Apostolate for the Roman rite in Canada: The Institute of the Good Shepherd (IBP) has established a new apostolate for the traditional Roman Rite in Moncton, New Brunswick, Canada, with the permission of Archbishop Guy Desrochers. The first Mass was celebrated on July 19. The IBP was founded in 2006 by five former priests of the Society of St. Pius X (SSPX/FSSPX). This appears to be its first foundation in Canada.

Not Disturbing the Political Powers Behind France’s Euthanasia Law? Bishop Emeritus Dominique Rey told TribuneChrétienne.com of his one regret about Leo XIV’s September 25–28 visit to France: the Pope’s “very busy program” leaves no time to visit people at the end of life or palliative care units. Yet Leo XIV’s schedule includes several other meetings, including one with survivors of clergy sexual abuse. Meanwhile, France is close to legalizing euthanasia.

Worse than Germany: Cardinal Tarcisio Kikuchi of Tokyo has welcomed the Japanese government's plan to promote "understanding of sexual orientation and gender identity", which was approved on 16 June. The plan involves education and "awareness initiatives" in government, schools, and workplaces, as well as measures to combat "discrimination" against homosexuals. In an interview with UcaNews.com on June 17, Cardinal Kikuchi described the government’s decision as “meaningful”, stating that it had clearly articulated a policy intended to foster a "deeper understanding of sexual minorities". And: "An inclusive community that welcomes everyone is not just an attitude; it is the first step towards building the world that God calls us to create." The cardinal's latest remarks are consistent with his longstanding homosex activism. Tokyo Archdiocese has organised monthly homosexual Eucharists. In 2023, he contributed to the book LGBT and Christianity, promoted by the 'Catholic HIV/AIDS Desk'. …Көбірек
Why Does the Priest Sometimes Skip the Homily at Mass? | Catholic Mass Explained Have you ever attended Catholic Mass, listened to the Gospel, and waited for the priest's homily… …but then there wasn't one? Did Father forget? Is the priest allowed to skip the homily? And can a Catholic Mass legitimately be celebrated without one? The answer is yes—but it depends on the day and the celebration. IS A HOMILY REQUIRED AT EVERY MASS? No. According to Canon 767 §2 of the Code of Canon Law, at Masses celebrated with a congregation on Sundays and holy days of obligation, a homily is required and should not be omitted except for a serious reason. But what about an ordinary weekday Mass? A homily is strongly recommended, particularly during seasons such as Advent, Lent, and the Easter season, but it is not universally required at every weekday Mass. So if you attend a weekday Mass and the priest moves on after the Gospel without preaching, it does not automatically mean that he has done …Көбірек
"Catholic" Governor Removes Abortion Limits: Massachusetts has removed its gestational limit on abortion. This means that abortions can legally occur until close to birth. Democratic Governor Maura Healey, a "Catholic", signed the law on August 10. Massachusetts bishops opposed the legislation, but no canonical penalties, including excommunication, have followed. Healey was also received by Pope Francis at the Vatican in 2024.

Ukrainian soldiers report critical conditions on the front lines. A brigade commander claims his troops have gone months without rotation or regular supplies of water, food, and medicine. A group of Ukrainian soldiers took to social media to say they were forced to drink their own urine due to Kiev’s failure to rotate or provide them with supplies. The soldiers urged Ukraine’s recently appointed top general, Mikhail Drapaty, to intervene, claiming their immediate command ignored their pleas. The scandal erupted on Tuesday when the soldiers, claiming to be a fire support platoon with the 121st Territorial Defense Brigade, published their address on social media. The video features several men sitting inside a dark room, likely a basement, with the platoon commander, who identified himself as Anatoly Sischuk, reading out the address. Sischuk claimed that his platoon was in one position in Zaporozhye Region, Russia for nearly four months, despite their command initially promising the unit …Көбірек
A group of Ukrainian soldiers took to social media to say they were forced to drink their own urine due to Kiev’s failure to rotate or provide them with supplies. This is not the first time the Ukrainian soldiers had to drink their urine. But this time, they took to social media to complain. Letting the world know how they are treated. Some can "try" to suppress this sort of thing to prevent us from knowing. But sooner or later it's revealed for most to know.
