All the fruits of the 2VC. He is "very sceptical" he said. If he had faith as small as a mustard seed, at least he would not be skeptical. He would do his job, his life's calling to which he himself voluntarily responded, and God would do the rest. But the conciliarists who have now metastasized into synodalists, would do anything but what they were called to and agreed to do. What will be their reward?!
@brhenry The Divine Liturgy is not the question of discipline but lex orandi strictly related to lex credendi. The Council of Trent confirmed the above proclaiming anathemas against sacramental revolutionaries (Canon XIII about the Sacraments in general).
"So, then, if anyone says that the Roman Pontiff has only an office of supervision or guidance, and not the full and supreme power of jurisdiction over the whole Church, and this not only in matters of faith and morals, but also in those which concern the discipline and government of the Church dispersed throughout the whole world; or that he has only the principal part, but not the absolute fullness of this supreme power; or that this power of his is not ordinary and immediate both over all and each of the Churches and over all and each of the pastors and faithful: let him be anathema." Vatican Council I
A fake priest in Kenya managed to concelebrate the Eucharist alongside Bishop John Mbinda of Lodwar before being exposed. Jones Bogonko Onchonga used forged documents to pose as a Catholic priest and “celebrate” Eucharists in several churches. Suspicions arose during a Eucharist on August 9, when Catholics noticed irregularities in his celebration: he appeared tense and left the altar during the service. A photo was shared among local clergy, prompting questions about his liturgical identity. The Diocese of Lodwar later confirmed that he was not an ordained priest, but a married layman and father of two. He now faces criminal charges over the alleged impersonation and use of false documents. According to Fides, police said Onchonga confessed to having impersonated a priest for almost two years. #newsYtokmgfddk
The Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (SSPX) has announced that it will continue its annual pilgrimage to Lourdes. Following the episcopal consecrations on July 1 in Ecône, Bishop Jean-Marc Micas of Tarbes and Lourdes withdrew permission for the SSPX to celebrate public Masses, administer sacraments, or organize public prayers at Lourdes. In an August 22 statement, Fr. Gonzague Peignot, superior of the FSSPX in France, announced that the Fraternity intends to continue coming to Lourdes every year, “Our Lady does not deserve to be abandoned despite the obstacles,” he said. The FSSPX expressed 'sorrow and incomprehension', questioning the bishop's decision and pointing to the interreligious Christian-Muslim pilgrimage that was welcomed at the sanctuary in October 2025. For now, the FSSPX faithful intend to remain present at Lourdes, but their pilgrimage will no longer be able to take the same public form as in previous years. #newsPjxbelhyed

During the Consistory, Leo XIV told the cardinals, “Support me, stand with me in this battle against war,” pro-homosexual Cardinal Jean-Paul Vesco of Algiers told IlMessaggero.it on August 23. Questioning the “Just War” Cardinal Vesco questioned the Christian concept of a just war, arguing that “for those who are fighting, their own war is always just.” While acknowledging a right to self-defense, he asked, “But up to what point?” “In any case, war itself is not just. In the end, we no longer know where to draw the line.” Israel and its “Settlements, Settlements, Settlements” On Gaza, CardinalVesco recalled living in Jerusalem for two years and visiting Gaza several times during the Intifada: “I experienced the checkpoints and saw with my own eyes the humiliation they represented. Today it is much worse.” Even then, he said, it was difficult to believe in a two-state solution because the Israeli authorities did not want one: “Netanyahu has not wanted it for more than twenty years.” …okunengi

There is no worldly solution for the Middle East crisis. There will only be peace when the Jews acknowledge that Jesus Christ is the Messiah and accept Him as their Lord and Savior. Then there will be peace.
On 23 August, at Holy Family Church in St. Louis Park, Minnesota, a woman knelt at the Communion rail during Communion. Just as the priest was about to give her Communion, she stood and handed him a flower. Despite Communion being distributed by intinction, she grabbed the Host and then took the chalice used for intinction, drank from it, and threw it onto the floor before leaving the church with an escort. The priest immediately purified the area where the Precious Blood had been spilled.
A disturbing incident occurred during Sunday Mass at Holy Family Church in St. Louis Park, Minnesota, where a woman disrupted Communion by grabbing and dropping the vessel used for intinction, spilling some of the Precious Blood.
Since they have a video of the Mass, hand it over to the police and send copies to the news media. If it were just the humans being disrespected, they could choose to "grin and bear it" but since God was profaned, the woman needs to be tracked down and punished.
Ben-Gvir claims removing UNRWA compound from East Jerusalem Israel seizes UNRWA training center in occupied East Jerusalem Israel seized the Qalandia Training Center from UNRWA to build a new educational complex, claiming historical ownership by the Jewish National Fund and prompting Palestinian calls for UN intervention.

German Bishop: Perceived Absence of God Expands Homosexual Practices: “Conservative” Bishop Stefan Oster of Passau said in his Assumption homily that the lifestyles, sexual preferences and identities displayed at Christopher Street Day are difficult to reconcile with the Christian view of humanity: “The perceived absence of God has massively expanded the scope of what is possible within the entire context surrounding sex and gender.” Oster asked: “Is the writer Dostoevsky ultimately right when he says, ‘If God does not exist, then everything is permitted’?”
Videozitat: Bischof Stefan Oster von Passau sprach in seiner am 17. August 2026 veröffentlichten Predigt zu Mariä Himmelfahrt über Menschenwürde, Säkularisierung und den Wandel des Menschenbildes. Zum Christopher Street Day sagte Oster: „Wenn wir den Christopher Street Day in seinen verschiedenen Formen betrachten, mit den vielen Facetten von offen zur Schau gestellten Lebensweisen, sexuellen Präferenzen und angeeigneten Identitäten, dann wird auch hier unmittelbar anschaubar, wie fundamental sich Gesellschaft verändert hat.“ Zugleich stellte er die Frage: „Entspricht das dann der Würde des Menschen, die uns von Gott gegeben ist? Oder widerspricht es ihr nicht viel mehr?“ Weiter fragte Oster: „Hat der Schriftsteller Dostojewski am Ende recht, wenn er sagt, wenn es Gott nicht gibt, dann ist alles erlaubt.“ Dabei betonte der Bischof ausdrücklich: „Auch alle Menschen, die da teilnehmen, [sind] geliebte Kinder Gottes mit unverlierbarer Würde“ und Christen hätten sie „in ihrer Freiheit zu …okunengi

He has served as a priest for 37 years near Frankfurt. In an open letter, he announced plans to marry his longtime partner.

Cordileone: “Powerful Forces in the West” Are Forcing Their Culture on Africa: Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone warned that Western society has lost its understanding of family. He spoke during the August 22 ordination of 14 priests in Makurdi, Nigeria. “We no longer understand these basic truths in the West, not even what it means to be a family born of a mutual self-giving love of husband and wife,” Cordileone said. He described Western society as increasingly lifeless and self-centered: “Even more serious are the powerful forces in the West that are forcing this on the rest of the world, especially here in Africa,” he said. “Thank you for resisting. I know the pressure is great, especially for national leaders on this continent.”
Archbishop Cordileone in Nigeria: “We no longer understand these basic truths in the West, not even what it means to be a family born of a mutual self-giving love of husband and wife.” “As a consequence, our Western society has become lifeless and colorless with the decreasing capacity for relationship.” “Even friendship, the love of Philios, let alone Agape, has become self-centered.”

Bishop Guido Gallese, 64, of Alessandria, Piedmont, is reportedly set to be removed from his diocese. LoSpiffero.com wrote on August 23 that the Apostolic Nuncio to Italy, Archbishop Edgar Peña Parra, has been handling negotiations over Gallese’s exit following an Apostolic Visitation conducted by Cardinal Giuseppe Bertello earlier this year. Bishop Gallese, who is described as reluctant to leave, had sought a transfer to another diocese, but the proposal was rejected. Archbishop Peña Parra, who previously served as the Substitute for General Affairs in the Vatican Secretariat of State, offered the bishop several possible “ways out.” The solution now under discussion would see Bishop Gallese become ecclesiastical assistant to the Collegamento Nazionale Santuari, Italy’s national network of Catholic shrines. Ansa.it reported that the Apostolic Visitation focused on the administration and finances of the diocese amid controversy over the bishop’s lifestyle. Considerable media attention …okunengi
by Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira An informal lecture gave on August 25, 1964 (*) August 25 is the feast of Saint Louis IX, king, confessor of the Faith, crusader and model of a Catholic head of state. There are two different ways people picture Saint Louis IX. One is as he truly was, the other is a soft, effeminate distortion of his person. This dichotomy is similar to the one that exists between many artists’ renditions of Saint Pius X and pictures of him. On the one hand, the photographs portray a giant of a man, strong soul and spiritual king, conscious of his dignity. On the other hand, many artists depict a feeble old grandfather, whose face begs pardon for being pope and regrets that he is not a simple priest. There is an abyss between this limp-wristed portrayal and the historic Saint Pius X, who was the hero against Modernism. Many artists’ renditions of Saint Pius X portray a limp-wristed distortion of his person as seen in photographs The same holds true with Saint Louis IX. On …okunengi
