Young people have the right to more traditional forms of liturgical experience, said Bishop Joel Portela Amado, 71, of Petrópolis, at a press conference of the Brazil Bishops in Aparecida, according to AciDigital.com. A journalist asked about a possible “return” of the Mass in the Roman rite and spoke about “young people who kneel to receive Communion” and “wear veils”. Bishop Joel replied it is important to consider broader trends, citing 2022 census data showing the highest number of people without religion is among those aged 19 to 39. “It’s not that they don’t believe in God. They are ‘unchurched’ - they believe in God, but lack a concrete path within the Church,” he said. Bishop Joel suggested this can lead young people to seek religious reference points, sometimes in past forms they did not grow up with. For him, such “diversity” is legitimate: “Do they have the right to be like this? Yes, because Catholicism is plural by nature, especially in a deeply plural world,” he said. …Bontsi
"They are ‘unchurched’ - they believe in God, but lack a concrete path within the Church,” he said. Bishop Joel suggested this can lead young people to seek religious reference points, sometimes in past forms they did not grow up with." No, actually, it's because they finally find the transcendent, the supernatural, the Divine, "the true, the good and the beautiful" in the Traditional Latin Mass, vs. the pure, horizontal humanism of the Novus Ordo. Grace operating in young, idealistic, fresh souls who want something more than what this world offers.

Today, Leo XIV appointed Monsignor Michele Morandi as the new Bishop of Faenza-Modigliana, an Italian diocese with 130,000 Catholics and 80 parishes. Born in Alfonsine, Italy, in 1976, he was ordained a priest in 2003 and has served as a parish priest, rector of the diocesan seminary and vicar general of the diocese. Closed Seminary Is "Excellent Starting Point" As rector of the seminary, he wrote in 2024 for the 70 anniversary of the large seminary building in Faenza. The seminarians now study in Bologna. The building is called the 'former seminary' and used as a library, a school, a workplace and an art space, and has become a "secular place". For Monsignor Morandi, this was an "excellent starting point", as from that moment on, things were "no longer tainted by clerical and collegial imagery or clouded by a curtain of incense." Identification with the Synodal Process Monsignor Morandi took part in the Italian Church’s national synodal assembly in Rome. In a diocesan article from 2025…Bontsi

Fri Apr 17, 2026 - 12:26 pm EDT (LifeSiteNews) — In a recent interview with Matt Fradd on his podcast Pints With Aquinas, Father John Perricone described how Mother Teresa had once told him that receiving the Holy Eucharist on the hand was the worst evil she had seen in her decades as a religious. During the podcast, which first aired April 13, Perricone recalled having breakfast with Mother Teresa, who had attended his Mass on several occasions, and how he had asked the nun about the most evil thing she had seen in her work with the most vulnerable across the globe. The priest emphasized how, without hesitation, the sainted nun said, “Communion in the hand.” “I remember once I said, ‘Mother, you’ve been in the worst areas, sectors of the world imaginable, and you’ve seen the greatest evils. Tell me, of all the things that you’ve seen, what can you tell me is the worst evil you’ve come across?” he recalled. “I suspected she was going to say abortion or euthanasia, (but) she looked …
Showing respect for Our Savior now requires repentance!Wow! If you do the Research you will find that the practice of communion in the hand was allowed only by Cardinal Bernardines probable fraud and deceit ,so it is actually illicit.
On April 16, during the visit of Pope Leo XIV to Bamenda, Cameroon, Fon Fru Asaah Angwafor IV, the tribal leader of the Mankon community, spoke about polygamy. He made the remarks during an interreligious peace meeting in the cathedral. He is the hereditary "king" of the Mankon people and rules over culture and spiritual tradition. He presides over pagan rites, such as important funerals and ancestral ceremonies. During these events, he wears ceremonial attire alongside elders. He also identifies as 'Catholic'. In his speech at the cathedral, the tribal leader stated that 'some cultural practices continue to pose challenges' and cited polygamy as an example. He expressed gratitude that, within the framework of the 2023 and 2024 Synod, African bishops had been tasked with conducting a study on polygamy and its place in the life of the Church. The tribal chief went on to say that adulterers in polygamous relationships should be able to fully integrate into the Church without being 'judged …Bontsi
Seems like Catholics are no better than Leo. Not one defended Our Lord from another Blasphemy from trump. But I watched how quickly they all came out of the wood work when he and Leo got into it. Well, you chose your god. Be prepared for the consequences. No less defending an evil prot who lead an evil life. Child abuser! One Pope called an inquisition because of protestantism. Another said, they are the worst heretics, before, now and to come. How many sins did they commit? They will find out when the time comes.
“The multiplication of the loaves and fishes occurred during the sharing; that is the miracle,” said Pope Leo XIV in his homily at the Japoma Stadium in Douala, Cameroon, on 17 April, which was attended by around 120,000 people. He continued: ‘There is bread for everyone if it is given to everyone. There is bread for everyone if it is taken not with a snatching hand, but with a giving hand.” Common heresy in the Francis era Here, Leo XIV reflects an idea that Pope Francis has returned to several times: that the multiplication of the loaves is not about a supernatural increase in food, but a transformation of human hearts that leads to sharing. During the Angelus on 26 July 2015, Francis said that 'the miracle does not consist in the multiplication itself, but in the sharing'. At the Angelus on 29 July 2018, and in various weekday homilies at Santa Marta, Francis reiterated that the true sign is not a miracle, but a change in attitude; the crowd learns to share. On 25 July 2021, Francis …Bontsi
Leo XIV downplayed tensions with President Donald Trump on the flight to Luanda, Angola, today. “The talk that I gave at the prayer meeting for peace was prepared two weeks ago, well before the president ever commented. And yet it was looked at as if I was trying to debate again the president, which is not in my interest at all.” Leo XIV added that “much of what has been written since then has been more commentary on commentary, trying to interpret what has been said.”
“A certain narrative has spread, not entirely accurate, because of the political situation that arose when, on the first day of the journey, the President of the United States made some remarks about me. Much of what has been written since then has been little more than commentary upon commentary, in an attempt to interpret what was said. One example is the address delivered at the Prayer Meeting for Peace on 16 April. That address had been prepared two weeks earlier, well before the President commented on me and on the message of peace I am promoting. And yet it was interpreted as though I were trying to engage once again in debate with the President, which is not at all my interest. I come to Africa primarily as a pastor, as Head of the Catholic Church, to be with, to celebrate with, to encourage and to accompany all African Catholics.”

This post furthers the Marxist dilectic by exposing its anti-Catholic bias towards MAGA/Zionism. I read in it, "But when a left wing ideologue wants to bash a conservative American President, facts can be most inconvenient."
John Prevost discussed in an April 17 interview with 'EWTN News In Depth' his life as the pope’s brother. Main points. Loss of privacy: “I used to be able to leave the front door open. Now I’m hesitant because you don’t know who’s going to come to the door.” Ordinary childhood: “Probably like anyone else’s—it was a mom and dad, three boys, school, homework, play, and repeat. It was just a normal life.” Childhood memory: “One time we were building a shed in the backyard and Rob fell through the roof. It was just part of the wood was rotted, because we were using old doors from the house for the roof.” Leo XIV’s early vocation: “We always knew that he wanted to be a priest. From a very young age, that was just always there.” A “prophecy”: “When he was maybe in first or second grade, one of the moms across the street said, ‘You know, he’s going to be the first American Pope.’ We just kind of heard it and moved on.” Still just brothers: “People say, ‘Who says no to the Pope?’ I …Bontsi

Imam greets Leo "in the name of Allah" in Catholic cathedral. Gloria TV: On 16 April, Pope Leo XIV presided over an interreligious peace meeting inside St Joseph's Cathedral in Bamenda, Cameroon. El Hadj Mohammed Aboubakar, the chief imam of Buea, gave a speech on behalf of the Muslim community and greeted Leo XIV with the Islamic greeting, As-salāmu ʿalaykum, adding: "I greet you in the name of Allah, who is most compassionate, the most merciful". By his sin of omission, Robert Prevost confirms Muslims in their rejection of the true God, allowing them to continue trampling upon and despising Christ as Redeemer. The pro-Islamic Prevost defends neither the true God nor the Catholic faith in his apostate interreligious facades for peace. —He mocks God and the Catholic faith, in collusion with those who deny the Prince of Peace and worship false gods. Here, too, we see the lack of mercy of the impostor Prevost, for an act of mercy consists in correcting those who err. He is hireling who …

Nury Vittachi @NuryVittachi NO COFFEE! US armed forces are running out of food as the planned four-day plan to “take out Iran” enters its seventh week. Vegetables, fruit, and all fresh produce has gone – and tiny meals are being served on empty meal trays on warships, USA Today reported.
