Leo XIV invokes Europe’s Christian roots in defence of human rights and migration. Pope Leo XIV offered a sweeping account of European civilisation and its future in a September 28 landmark speech at the Robert Schuman Congress Centre in Metz, France. Speaking on “The Roots of Europe for Peace and Unity,” Leo XIV’s argument was, at its deepest level, anthropological: Europe’s future depends upon its understanding of the human person. Leo XIV began with Europe’s Greek, Roman and Christian inheritance, but emphasised that “European civilization is also the fruit of centuries-long encounters.” He specifically cited “the presence of Arab culture in the Iberian Peninsula.” He then turned to the contribution of Benedictine monasticism. After recalling its role in caring for the poor, sick and elderly, as well as in universities, hospitals, medicine, science, architecture, law and political organisation, he declared: “Without this monastic tradition, European civilization as we know it would …Bivule
At a moment in history when relations between nations "are becoming increasingly barbaric," dialogue and multilateralism remain "the best antidote to the desire for domination, which lies at the root of every conflict," Pope Leo XIV said.
4000 Years Anniversary of 8 Martyrs’ Martyrs’ Shrine celebration scheduled for Sept. 26, 2026 Canadian Martyrs’ feast marks 400 years of faith
HISTORY OF NORTH AMERICAEight Jesuit missionaries from Sainte-Marie among the Hurons were ritually tortured and killed on various dates between 1642-49 in Canada, in what is now southern Ontario, and in upstate New York, during the warfare between the Iroquioan tribes the Mohawk and the Huron. They have subsequently been canonized and venerated as "the Canadian martyrs by the Catholic Church" (René Goupil, Isaac Jogues, Jean de Lalande, Antoine Daniel, Jean de Brébeuf, Gabriel Lalemant, Charles Garnier, Noël Chabanel) .

By the way did you read one of my last posts what I wrote? Speaking to my SSPX Priest after Mass on Sunday, he told me they are planning on sending more Priests to Russia! We talked about the two in Moscow and Saint Petersburg briefly but didn't get a chance to talk about building bigger Chapels and Church's in Russia. Thank GOD for President Putin who not only approves of such things but encourages them. While in Ukraine they are destroying Church's and paying the Priests off to work on their side. If not they are jailed, the Church's confiscated or destroyed. I posted about several of those things before. Last year ago I posted how a million or more Russians converted and that was done a couple of years ago at least. But they are going to what I call the protestant/Catholic Church's, because there are not enough SSPX in Russia. Except for the one in front of the Kremlin who holds only one Latin Mass a day or week. We need more SSPX in Russia. I hope everyone is praying for more SSPX …Bivule
Why would I be angry with the Ukraine desperately trying to rid their country of the Russian invaders? The Ukraine has every right to protect their country and the Greek Ukrainian Catholic Church. And as stupid as the idea is, that salvation will come from the East, it won't come from the Schismatics or CCCP! It could possibly come from the Ukrainian Catholic Church since there is no salvation outside the Catholic Church.
Pope Leo XIV spent nearly the entire cruise from Lourdes to Metz in the cockpit of Air France’s A321 — about 30 minutes. Copilot Érik Margueritte says the aviation-minded pope asked numerous questions about the aircraft and its systems. When two French Rafales flew alongside, the crew handed Leo the radio. He spoke directly to the fighter pilots, blessing them and military personnel working to protect people and promote peace worldwide.
All for the show: In the - recorded - cockpit of Air France's Airbus A321, the pope exchanges with the crew during the flight between Lourdes and Metz. An exceptional moment up close with the pilots, between aviation, sharing, and emotion.
Every Trial Is A Battle For Heaven God allows bad things to happen to help us grow in virtue and holiness. While Satan aims to destroy us, God uses these challenges to strengthen our faith and prepare us for eternity. By cooperating with God’s grace and rejecting Satan’s temptations, we can overcome difficulties and ultimately choose heaven over hell. Fr.

Why is the Holy Word of God, in the Holy Scriptures a Fierce Weapon of God? 1) John 1:1; In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2) Revelation 19:12; His eyes are like a flame of fire; His Name is “The Word of God.” 3) Revelation 19:15; From His mouth comes a sharp Sword to strike down the nations. 4) Hebrews 4:12-13; Indeed, the Word of God is living and active, sharper than any double-edged sword. It penetrates even between the place where the soul is divided from the spirit, joints and marrow, and judges the thoughts and intentions of the heart. Nothing in the unseen realm is hidden from it; everything is laid bare and exposed before the eyes of the One to whom we must give an account. 5) Ephesians 6:17; The Sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God. 6) John 6:63; The Words I have spoken to you are Spirit and are Life. 7) Psalm 33:6; By the Word of Yahweh the heavens were made, and all their host by the breath of His mouth. 8) Psalm 33:9; …Bivule
Dlaczego Święte Słowo Boże zawarte w Piśmie Świętym jest potężną bronią Boga? 1) Ewangelia św. Jana 1:1; Na początku było Słowo, a Słowo było u Boga, i tym Słowem był Bóg. 2) Apokalipsa św. Jana 19:12; Jego oczy są jak płomień ognia; Jego imię brzmi: „Słowo Boże”. 3) Objawienie 19:15; Z Jego ust wychodzi ostry miecz, by uderzyć narody. 4) List do Hebrajczyków 4:12-13; Słowo Boże jest bowiem żywe i skuteczne, ostrzejsze niż jakikolwiek miecz obosieczny. Przenika aż do rozdzielenia duszy od ducha, do stawów i szpiku, i osądza myśli oraz zamiary serca. Nic w sferze niewidzialnej nie jest przed Nim ukryte; wszystko jest obnażone i odsłonięte przed oczami Tego, przed którym musimy zdać sprawę. 5) List do Efezjan 6:17; Miecz Ducha, którym jest Słowo Boże. 6) Ewangelia według św. Jana 6:63; Słowa, które wam powiedziałem, są Duchem i są Życiem. 7) Psalm 33:6; Słowem Jahwe zostały stworzone niebiosa, a całe ich zastępy – tchnieniem Jego ust. 8) Psalm 33:9; Nic nie może się oprzeć Jego głosowi. …Bivule
Truth is a sword that the synodal Church “wraps in cotton wool,” Swiss Bishop emeritus Marian Eleganti writes on his blog on September 27. He comments on a thematic guide prepared for Leo XIV’s October 7–14 meeting with the presidents of bishops’ conferences. Monsignor Eleganti argues that the synodal Church uses a predominantly “sentimental vocabulary,” moving away from clear sacramental and canonical criteria toward a language of accompaniment and appreciation. He contrasts Familiaris Consortio with Amoris Laetitia: the former is now treated, he argues, as “yesterday” and “too hard,” the latter as “today” and “merciful.”
Bischof Marian Eleganti kritisiert kurz vor dem Vatikan-Treffen von Papst Leo XIV. zu Amoris Laetitia die Synodalität. Die synodale Kirche urteile mit „sentimentalem Vokabular“ statt nach sakramentalen und kirchenrechtlichen Kriterien: Familiaris Consortio sei „gestern – zu hart“, Amoris Laetitia „heute – barmherzig“. Die Wahrheit, so Eleganti, werde dabei „in Watte gepackt“.

On September 26, about 200 faithful of the Society of St. Pius X (FSSPX) made their annual pilgrimage to the Canadian Martyrs’ Shrine in Midland, Ontario. Their published programme scheduled veneration of the relics at the Shrine at 3 p.m. The pilgrims were denied entrance to the church. According to LifeSiteNews.com, this was ordered by the Archdiocese of Toronto. The FSSPX has made this pilgrimage for years. In September 2025, more than 500 FSSPX pilgrims attended. In contrast to the denial of entry to the FSSPX pilgrims, in July 2026 the Archdiocese of Toronto advertised the annual Tamil pilgrimage at the same Shrine. Its announcement invited “Tamil Catholics and other Tamil-speaking devotees” to a programme including Rosary, Eucharist and Adoration, concluding: “All Are Welcome!” Picture: LifeSiteNews.com, #newsDemzixxpwy
A well-staged Papal event. Days of saturation coverage, politicians lining up, interfaith delegations, enormous crowds and journalists analysing every gesture: Leo XIV’s visit to France has become much more than a trip. Whatever one thinks of the motives behind it, secular French media and laicist public institutions have helped turn the visit into a national event — and staged the image of a Catholic revival in one of Europe’s most famously secular republics.
Speaking of 'snake': While Prevost covers for his pedophile friends and abandons the victims, he does political propaganda with a sick child. Ruthless. He only wants to keep up the Catholic façade to deceive the ignorant in their faith. He denies the Holy Trinity through syncretism, the founding of the Catholic Church, and the honorary titles of the Virgin Mary. He mocks the martyrs of the French Revolution. Two-faced. All a Freemason show to fool the clueless, blind Catholics.
Interesting Miracle in Russia with Saint Nicholas in 1956. Saint Nicholas is the most popular Saint in Russia. When Bergoglio lent Russia Relics of Saint Nicholas, it was said many Miracles occurred as well. President Putin made sure he also venerated the relics. Strange Miracle - 1956 - St. Nicholas Center MOSCOW, May 24. /TASS/. President Vladimir Putin came to Moscow's downtown Cathedral of the Savior on Wednesday to venerate the relics of St Nicholas the Wonderworker that arrived in Moscow from Bari, Italy, on Sunday. Prior to visiting the cathedral Putin came to the official residence of the Patriarch of Moscow and all Russia Kirill I. He congratulated the Patriarch on the occasion of patron saint’s day and also had a meeting with the visiting head of the Coptic Orthodox Church, Pope Tawadros II. “This event (the delivery of a fragment of St Nicholas’s relics from Bari to Russia TASS) became possible thanks to an agreement reached at a meeting between Patriarch Kirill I and Pope of …Bivule
Birds of a feather flock together for a relaxed round-table meeting in Metz: Leo XIV sat down with a small group of European leaders and dignitaries — several of whom have rather compromised records on life issues. Around the table were Emmanuel and Brigitte Macron, Prince Albert II and Princess Charlène of Monaco, Grand Duke Guillaume of Luxembourg, Luxembourg PM Luc Frieden, Andorra’s Co-Prince Bishop Josep-Lluís Serrano Pentinat, and former European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker.
À l'issue de l'événement organisé à Metz sous le titre « Aux racines de l'Europe », le Pape a rencontré certaines des personnalités présentes lors d'un entretien privé dans une salle du Palais des Congrès. Dix invités étaient présents, dont les Macron, le prince Albert et Charlène, M. Frieden et M. Juncker.
I don’t pay much attention to other men. I pay attention to the women beside them. Because sometimes a woman tells you more about a relationship than a man ever could. You can often sense whether she feels truly loved or merely needed, whether she feels safe and supported or whether she has been carrying the emotional weight of the whole family by herself for years. A man can say all the right things about love, respect, loyalty, and how he would “do anything for his family.” But the woman beside him may tell a very different story without saying a word. So don’t only listen to what he says. Notice how she seems when she is around him. Does she look relaxed? Does she feel free to be herself? Can she laugh without checking his reaction first? Does she seem like someone who knows she has a partner beside her — or someone who has learned to survive by relying almost entirely on herself? A woman can thrive in a small apartment, wearing an old sweater, with very little that looks impressive …Bivule
Islam at the Gates By Diane Moczar D. Arts How Christendom defeated the Ottoman Turks Historian Diane Moczar pulls back the curtain on one of the most important acts in the drama of Muslim aggression against the West: the 500-year-long siege of Europe by the Ottoman Turks. Tracing the rise of the Turkish people from wandering Asian tribe to mighty pan-continental empire, Islam at the Gates chronicles the heroes and villains, the battles and atrocities, the tragic errors and timely miracles, that marked the Ottomans’ incursions from Europe’s borders to the very heart of Christendom; and then, by the grace of God, their eventual repulsion and final defeat. In these pages you’ll encounter: The bold sultans, timid emperors, and vile traitors who aided the Turkish advance — and the popes who tirelessly preached Crusade against it Brave saints who rallied Christian forces against the invaders — including the hardy warrior-monk who died in battle at the age of sixty-one The island fortress …Bivule
Blessed Pope John Paul I - September 28 Papacy began 26 August 1978 Papacy ended 28 September 1978 Pope John Paul I[a] (born Albino Luciani;[b] 17 October 1912 – 28 September 1978) was head of the Catholic Church and sovereign of Vatican City from 26 August 1978 until his death 33 days later. His reign is among the shortest in papal history, giving rise to the first year of three popes since 1605. John Paul I remains the most recent Italian-born pope, the last in a succession of such popes that started with Clement VII in 1523. He was the first pope to have been born in the 20th century, as well as the last pope to die in it. Before the August 1978 papal conclave that elected him, he expressed his desire not to be elected, telling those close to him that he would decline the papacy if elected, but he eventually felt an obligation to accept his election.[4] He was the first pontiff to have a double papal name, choosing "John Paul" in honour of his two immediate predecessors, John …Bivule
John Paul I Legacy Remembered as Smiling Pope Cardinal Albino Luciani took the names of his two immediate predecessors--John XXIII and Paul VI — to become John Paul I and the 264th successor of St. Peter on August 26, 1978. He explained that he chose these names to honor the popes who made him a bishop and a cardinal. Pope John Paul I became the first pope to have two names. But this was not the only "first" of John Paul I's brief papacy. He was also the first to not use the papal tiara and he often spoke using an Italian dialect. Both made the papacy more human and more relatable to people. “Dialect is a familiar language, and the liturgy proposed by the Second Vatican Council, which gave local languages a central role, required an absolute change,” Stefania Falasca, Vice President of the John Paul I Vatican Foundation, said. “In this way, the message of Christian truth could reach everyone. And he, with his humility, embodied this.” As the bishop of Vittorio Veneto, Albino Luciani …Bivule
