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 …ច្រើន

Today, Leo XIV appointed the rector of the seminary, Rev. Johannes Zehe, 62, as the new auxiliary bishop of the Archdiocese of Hamburg, Germany. Monsignor Zehe initially studied music in Berlin and worked as a violin teacher and orchestral musician before being ordained a priest in Hamburg in 1999. Career Within Hamburg’s Establishment He owes his career to Hamburg’s Archbishop Stefan Heße who appointed him rector of the seminary in 2023 and has now evidently put him forward for appointment as auxiliary bishop. However, Archbishop Heße of Hamburg is strongly pro-homosexual. Since June 2025, the archdiocese has been embroiled in a major controversy. Under the title “Male, Female, Diverse: Framework Concept for Sexual Education in the Catholic Schools of the Archdiocese of Hamburg,” a 33-page document breaks with core Catholic teachings on sexuality and relationships. Monsignor Zehe himself is not regarded as an internal opponent of the current direction. However, his own online …ច្រើន

The Vatican has rejected – on paper only – a request from the German Bishops' Conference to permit lay people to preach during the Eucharist by means of an "indult." A June 17 letter, written by Cardinal Arthur Roche, Prefect of the Dicastery for Divine Worship, was published on Dbk.de. The German bishops' proposal sought permission to allow lay employees, in the usual exceptional circumstances, to deliver a "homiletic reflection" following the Gospel during the Eucharist. In his reply, Cardinal Roche claims with canon law that the homily is an integral part of the liturgy [only since Pius X] and is reserved to a priest or deacon. He stresses that the reservation of the homily to clergy is not merely a disciplinary norm and does not depend on theological competence or communication skills. Cardinal Roche disputes the claim that current pastoral circumstances require an exception. Where a priest is present to celebrate the Eucharist, he is also present to preach. Where no priest is …ច្រើន
How a headmaster invokes Greek wisdom to empower youth in Northern Ireland | Witness Documentary School headmaster Kevin McArevey is a maverick determined to change the fortunes of an inner-city community plagued by urban decay, sectarian aggression, poverty and drugs.

Fake-Monks Confronted Homosexual March in Greece: Two men wearing clerical-style robes confronted the Thessaloniki homosexual march, shouting “Repent!” at participants. One of the men lay down in front of a truck while holding a cross and an icon. Police detained both men. Authorities later stated that neither individual was affiliated with the Greek-Orthodox community. During identification, they found that the man who had lain in front of the float had an outstanding conviction related to drug offenses and property damage.
A man - with drug problems pretending to be a monk - interrupted the "Pride" parade in Thessaloniki by lying down in the middle of the road, in front of a truck.
(FSSPX News) — In a statement published exclusively by American journalist Diane Montagna, Bishop Athanasius Schneider argues that the debate surrounding the Society of Saint Pius X cannot be understood without addressing the doctrinal and liturgical questions raised since the Second Vatican Council. He calls for a calm examination of what he considers to be the true heart of the problem: The questions and problems relating to the Priestly Society of Saint Pius X (SSPX) have been the subject of a largely fruitless debate for over 50 years and have now culminated in the announced episcopal consecrations, which have not yet been approved by the Holy See. The discussion has been fueled by emotion — often quite literally cum ira et studio — and is frequently conducted by individuals who lack direct familiarity with the relevant documents or personal experience of the SSPX. In many cases, their knowledge is superficial and shaped by preconceived judgments. As a result, the debate often …ច្រើន
Kentucky bishop tells priest to stop conducting traditional Latin mass I cannot believe any Catholic would pay this Kentuckian any mind at all. He is obviously a miscreant who needs his property and income extracted to the level of poverty befitting his foolishness. QUO PRIMUM made the Latin language the language of the liturgy. Period.
In his 1995 article on Romans 9–11, the future Prefect of the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith, Tucho Fernández, wrote that "all will be saved." His goal is to “relativize the very basis from which questionable doctrines were elaborated,” wherein the "questionable doctrines" is Catholicism as developed from Scripture by St. Augustine, the Fathers, and the Scholastics, notes ElWanderer.com on June 23. Fernández believes that Augustine's teaching "requires a revision" and later claims that Augustine's doctrine "did not offer a complete and harmonious vision of God, man and Christian experience." "I know God's concrete plans" Tucho's most extraordinary claim is: "I firmly trust that all will be saved; a trust based not on a desire, nor on my compassion for men, but on what I know of God and of His concrete plans thanks to His Revelation." ElWanderer notes that the Church has never received a revelation that all men will be saved. On the contrary. The Council of Trent teaches that …ច្រើន
Senate Votes to Check Trump’s War Powers, Rebuking Him on Iran A few Republicans joined Democrats in favor of a measure instructing President Trump to halt military operations against Iran or seek congressional authoriz nytimes.com/…6/23/us/politics/senate-trump-war-po… By Robert Jimison Reporting from the Capitol June 23, 2026 The Senate on Tuesday adopted a resolution instructing President Trump to end the war in Iran or seek congressional authorization to continue it, delivering the most significant bipartisan rebuke yet of the conflict. The resolution does not have the force of law and is therefore unlikely to compel an immediate change in policy. But the 50-to-48 vote — in which four Republicans joined Democrats in favor — marked a striking break by the G.O.P.-led Congress with a president who has faced little resistance from his party on any topic, particularly matters of war and national security. It came as Republicans in Congress have expressed skepticism and alarm about …ច្រើន
Leo XIV Sings World Youth Day Anthem with Children: Yesterday, Leo XIV joined children attending the Vatican’s summer program Estate Ragazzi in singing Jesus Christ, You Are My Life in the Paul VI Hall. Sound on.
Papa Leone XIV ha vissuto un momento musicale speciale con i bambini di Estate Ragazzi in Vaticano, unendosi a loro nel canto di Jesus Christ, You Are My Life nell’Aula Paolo VI. Durante l’incontro, il Papa ha incoraggiato i bambini a costruire amicizie vere: stare insieme, giocare, parlare, pregare e non lasciare che la tecnologia prenda il posto delle relazioni umane. «Dio non vuole guardare il telefonino», ha ricordato loro. «Dio vuole guardare i nostri cuori, la nostra vita». Al termine dell’incontro, il Santo Padre ha pregato con i bambini e li ha invitati a raccontare ai genitori di aver pregato insieme al Papa.
1) Psalm 50:13; Do not take Your Holy Spirit away from me. 2) Wisdom 1:4-5; Devious thoughts lead one away from God; and Omnipotence, when put to the test, rejects the foolish. Indeed, Wisdom does not enter a deceitful soul, nor dwell in a body enslaved to sin; the Holy Spirit who instructs us flees from deceit, turns away from foolish thoughts, and is driven away when iniquity appears”. 3) John 14:23 Jesus replied, “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My Word, and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make our home with him.” 4) 1 Corinthians 3;16-17; Do you not know that you are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit dwells in you? If anyone destroys God’s temple, God will destroy him; for God’s temple is holy, and you are that temple. 5) 2 Corinthians 6:16; For we are the sanctuary of the living God, as God has said: “I will dwell among them and walk among them; I will be their God, and they will be my people.” 6) 1 Corinthians 6:19-20; Do you not know that your body is …ច្រើន
The president of the German lay organization ZdK, Irme Stetter-Karp, 69, commented on the paper tiger from Rome claiming that laypeople supposedly may not preach during Eucharists. The German Synodal Way had already voted in favor of the proposal in March 2023, with strong support from the bishops. “We therefore expect the German bishops to reaffirm their substantive position to Rome, strengthen their arguments, and under no circumstances read Cardinal Roche’s letter as a cause for discouragement,” she said. For Ruth Fehlker of the Catholic Women’s Association of Germany (kfd) - that only a few days ago called for abortions in Catholic hospitals - the letter demonstrates “how great the gap is between the pastoral realities of many local churches and the directives coming from Rome.” #newsNtnvgtepdv
Damián Montes Nieto has announced in an Instagram video that he is finally leaving the priesthood: “I have decided to withdraw from the exercise of priestly ministry.” He was a Redemptorist and ordained to the priesthood in 2013 at the Santuario del Perpetuo Socorro in Granada, Spain. He prefers to keep private the “serious reasons” that turned his ministry into a “very sad and very difficult” experience. Looking to the future, he hopes for “the opportunity for a new life, shared with someone, or to start my own family.” He has taken up employment within an educational community and has assumed the role of Academic Vice Director at an international institution. Montes was "born a poet and an artist.” As a missionary priest, Montes had the opportunity to visit countries such as India, Honduras, Thailand, and Colombia, as well as various cities in Spain and Italy. Radical Pro-Homosex Priest Montes was one of the most openly homosex-affirming Catholic priests in Spain. In a 2021 …ច្រើន
One returns over and over to the question as to whether the current Vatican 'establishment', and its enablers, are committed to a 'Christ-centred' Church or an 'ideologically perverted' church?
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
