An independent investigation has documented decades of spiritual abuse, psychological control, and systemic governance failures within the Benedictine Sisters of the Sacred Heart of Montmartre. The contemplative community is based at the Sacré-Cœur of Paris, France. Background and timeline The congregation, founded in the late 19th century in connection with the national vow and devotion to the Sacred Heart, is dedicated to liturgical prayer, perpetual adoration, and the reception of pilgrims at the Sacré-Cœur Basilica. In June 2021, the congregation initiated an internal review. In 2022, former members were formally included in the process. In February 2023, the sisters publicly acknowledged serious internal abuses, issued an apology, and requested an external investigation. The independent report, completed after 18 months of work, was published in January 2026. Scope of the investigation The commission conducted 159 interviews with current sisters, former members, priests, bishops …بیشتر
These “independent commissions” do not understand the meaning of suffering, sacrifice, and self-denial, and call all of this “abuse of power.” It is entirely in line with the post-conciliar church, which is trying to eliminate the cross from Christ's message.
01/18/2026 Entire blog as a free PDF eBook. International law to date has been merely a useful cover for the lawlessness practiced in international relations, mainly by the USA and the empire’s brother country occupying Palestine – Israel. Finally, a politician has emerged who openly proclaims that he does not care about international law and that he and he alone will decide on American interventions in order to strengthen world peace through war. Excerpt from an interview published on January 7, 2026, in the New York Times. Source. The topic of the new world order was addressed by geopolitical analyst Peter Koenig in his article published on Thursday on GlobalResearch.ca: The Trump-based International Order. No this is not a conspiracy theory. It is real. They got away with Covid, “vaccinating” some 5.7 billion people worldwide, at least twice. The fate of the “vaxxed” ones, will play out in the coming three to ten years, when nobody can trace death and injuries back to the poisonous …
Gloria.TV, a Catholic video-sharing platform, shows no widespread reports of JPEG display issues or editor malfunctions as of January 2026. Common causes for such problems often stem from client-side factors like file format incompatibilities, such as using .jpeg instead of .jpg extensions or progressive JPEG compression not fully supported by the site. No official announcements from site owners or admins address these specific issues recently. Possible Causes File naming or type mismatch: Sites like Gloria.TV may only process standard .jpg files; renaming .jpeg to .jpg resolves display problems in similar cases. Browser or cache problems: Outdated browsers, corrupted cache, or extensions can prevent images and editors from loading properly. Local device issues: High-resolution files, corruption, or OS-specific photo app glitches (e.g., Windows Photos) block JPEG rendering. Troubleshooting Steps Rename files to .jpg and ensure baseline (not progressive) JPEG compression before …بیشتر
ANOTHER CLUE! It may be a royalty-free/rights issue. I saw another image posted on Gloria.tv with no trouble, and when I download the image I found that it was a .avif format, which is royalty-free, one-time purchase or unlimited license, etc. option. When I changed the extension on the same image I posted before to .avif, it went through a preliminary upload process this time (which didn't happen before) then declined to post it since it wasn't a bonafide royalty-free image. They must digitally watermark them. So it appears it may be a publishing rights issue. Perhaps Gloria.tv was getting in trouble for allowing people to post images people had no rights to and/or which are not public domain. I believe that may be the issue....possibly. AVIF (AV1 Image File Format) is a modern, open, royalty-free image format providing superior compression, resulting in smaller file sizes than JPEG or WebP with similar or better quality, supporting features like HDR, transparency, animation, and wide …بیشتر
I just uploaded two image files -- same exact image file but with different extensions: .jpg and .jpeg -- and both disappeared. One partially displayed after a few moments, then disappeared when I clicked it. 1) It might be due to the review process that scans uploaded images for objectionable content before posting. 2) It opens a blank image container if clicked, so I inspected the html code behind the page and the uploaded images are being linked to a storage directory. It shows the right dimensions of the uploaded image (width="357" height="500"), even with the blank container. Maybe another clue - perhaps the directory is corrupted: <img src="https://seedus4268.gloriatv.net/storage1/tgnvuvq7o6wp99bh3syhmhoha8hgrtpxuftmvyt?secure=mzShiKat8538fbO0YXWVqQ&expires=1768896547" width="357" height="500" alt=""> YET ANOTHER CLUE: When right clicking the image and telling it to open the image in a new tab, the following error is displayed. It does point to a directory problem with the images: …بیشتر

Fri Nov 14, 2025 - 8:28 pm ESTMon Nov 17, 2025 - 6:56 am EST (LifeSiteNews) — Bishop Joseph Strickland, in a lengthy X post Friday, asked Pope Leo XIV and all of the bishops how much longer they’ll continue to serve two masters and “scandalize the little ones” by turning a blind eye to sin. In his November 14 post, the bishop emeritus of Tyler, Texas, questioned how long the bishops, the Vatican curia, and the Holy Father will continue to scandalize the faithful by their complacency in the celebration of irreverent and sacrilegious liturgies, welcoming same-sex “couples” into the Church without calling them to conversion, emphasizing welcoming migrants without addressing the effects of illegal immigration on native populations, and ultimately “halt between two masters.” (1 Kings 18:21) The bishop underscored that there are millstones ready to be distributed to Pope Leo a “truckload” for the Roman curia, and a “cargo load” for the vast majority of the world’s bishops who frequently …
The Patriarchs and Heads of the Churches in Jerusalem denounce “Christian Zionism” as a harmful ideology. In a joint statement on January 17 (below), they write: “Recent activities undertaken by local individuals who advance damaging ideologies, such as Christian Zionism, mislead the public, sow confusion, and harm the unity of our flock. These undertakings have found favor among certain political actors in Israel and beyond who seek to push a political agenda which may harm the Christian presence in the Holy Land and the wider Middle East.” The Patriarchs and Heads of Churches further note with concern that these individuals have welcomed at official levels both locally and internationally. #newsKcvomeyroj
A Statement from the Patriarchs and Heads of Churches in Jerusalem: The Patriarchs and Heads of Churches in the Holy Land affirm before the faithful and before the world that the flock of Christ in this land is entrusted to the Apostolic Churches which have borne their sacred ministry across centuries with steadfast devotion. Recent activities undertaken by local individuals who advance damaging ideologies, such as Christian Zionism, mislead the public, sow confusion, and harm the unity of our flock. These undertakings have found favor among certain political actors in Israel and beyond who seek to push a political agenda which may harm the Christian presence in the Holy Land and the wider Middle East. Holy Scripture teaches us that “we, though many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another” (Romans 12:5). To claim authority outside the communion of the Church is to wound the unity of the faithful and burden the pastoral mission entrusted to the historic churches …بیشتر
In Yiwu, Zhejiang, participants in a sports event are indoctrinated against the “xie jiao” while cycling up the hills. by Qi Junzao The Yivu race: anti-xie-jiao propaganda is not far away. On December 14, the city of Yiwu in Zhejiang province hosted what might have been a perfectly ordinary sporting event: a cycling hill‑climb invitational. One thousand riders gathered at the scenic Shili Taohua Wu area to test their stamina on the winding Yan’kou Lake track. But in China, no public gathering is too innocent to escape the heavy hand of propaganda. Suddenly, the event was transformed into a “sports + anti-xie‑jiao extravaganza.” For readers unfamiliar with the term, “xie jiao” is often translated as “cults” or “evil cults,” but this is not accurate. It designates in China since the Middle Ages “organizations spreading heterodox teachings,” and the powers that be decide which teachings are “heterodox.” Today, it is a deliberately broad and elastic label wielded by the Chinese …
Madonna del Sangue - January 19th, 2026 | No Greater Delight No Greater Delight is a daily Marian podcast meant to start the day with a Marian touch. After examining the Marian feasts celebrated throughout the world on a given day, Fr. Nate offers a brief reflection to help make our love for Our Lady concrete in daily living. The title "No Greater Delight" is inspired by a homily of Saint Bernard of Clairvaux, wherein he expresses his joy in preaching about the Virgin Mother, even though he acknowledges the challenge of adequately praising her. Mary's greatness is beyond words. 0:00 Feasts of Mary Today 02:59 The Imitation of Mary WhatsApp Channel: Catholic Voice Links: catholicvoice | Instagram, Facebook | Linktree
La Madonna del Sangue Il santuario della Madonna del Sangue è un santuariomariano sito nel comune di Re, in provincia del Verbano-Cusio-Ossola e diocesi di Novara. Il santuario attuale sorge a ridosso della chiesa di San Maurizio dove, secondo la tradizione, avvenne un miracolo. Nel 1494 un tal Giovanni Zucono di Villette, in preda alla rabbia per aver perso al gioco, scagliò una pietra su un piccolo affresco dellaMadonna del Latte presente sulla facciata. La mattina dopo dei passanti si accorsero che l'affresco iniziava a sanguinare. Questo avvenimento è testimoniato da diversi documenti. Il principale risale a pochi giorni dopo l'effusione e fu redatto dal podestà della Valle, Daniele de Crispis, e sottoscritto da quattro notai. Questi avvenimenti non erano totalmente inusuali nel XV secolo: ad esempio, un episodio analogo avvenne a Forlì, dove, a quanto narrano le cronache, un'immagine mariana, colpita da un pugnale, schizzò sangue dalla ferita, dando origine alla …بیشتر
The French actress and sex symbol of the 1960s, Brigitte Bardot, aged 91, was laid to rest on 7 January after a funeral Eucharist in Saint-Tropez on the French Riviera. Celebrated by the parish priest, the Novus Ordo service included mostly profane music, such as the score of Contempt, the 1963 Jean-Luc Godard film in which Bardot starred. On 17 January, Jeanne Smits published an obituary on LifeSiteNews.com, correcting journalists who had one-sidedly referred to a 2024 interview in which Bardot described herself as a 'traditionalist', recalling the Mass of her childhood. Denying Eternal Life Bardot was not a practising Catholic. Although she called herself a believer, she wrote in her 2018 autobiography Larmes de combat (Tears of Battle): "It's the afterlife that's awful; what the body becomes is dirty. I don’t know if life after death exists. I don't know, and I don't necessarily hope that it does. What kind of mess could await us on the other side? We might as well sleep. Forever..." …بیشتر
This is a tragedy. She grew up when the red-hot liberals were sneaking out of their demonic spaces and began invading the mainstream church. I am sure that many in her age group abandoned the church and have never come back.
They Might Be Saints | Bishop Frederic Baraga Irenaeus Frederic Baraga (June 29, 1797 – January 19, 1868; Slovene: Irenej Friderik Baraga) was a Slovenian Catholic missionary to the United States, grammarian and author of Christian poetry and hymns in Native American languages. He served as the first bishop of Sault Sainte Marie and Marquette in Michigan from 1865 to 1868. He previously served as bishop of Sault Sainte Marie from 1857 to 1865 and as vicar apostolic of Upper Michigan from 1853 to 1857. Baraga's letters about his missionary work were published widely in Europe, inspiring the priests John Neumann and Francis Xavier Pierz to emigrate to the United States. In 2012, Pope Benedict XVI declared Baraga as "venerable." EWTN Frederic Baraga - Wikipedia
Germany’s “slime Mass” apology from the Diocese of Rottenburg-Stuttgart reveals more than procedural regret; it underscores profound fault lines in German Catholicism—between synodal experimentation and fidelity to received doctrine. The Catholic Herald offers a measured analysis of the incident and its implications.
