Ancient Chaldean Church vandalized in Northern Iraq | Shalom World News An ancient witness of Chaldean Christian faith in Iraq has been desecrated in Sharanish, a historic Christian village near Zakho, close to the Iraq–Turkey border. Video from inside Mar Kiriakos Church shows extensive vandalism, with sacred spaces damaged and church property destroyed. The incident has left the local community mourning the incident, which is another blow to a village that has endured years of instability and displacement. Sharanish, home to the Chaldean churches of Mart Shmune and Mar Kiriakos, remains a symbol of the ancient Christian presence in Mesopotamia. As investigations continue, the faithful hold on to a message carried through centuries: a wounded church can still be a living testimony of faith.
The problems they are causing Russia is never ending. And Russia still remains human and not destroy the world for all the abuse they give them for many decades.
@giveusthisday Everyone and anyone who wants to wipe the Russian people out. NATO, EU, US Remember when lindsey graham said, best money we ever spent killing Russians. They said that zelensky edited it. When in fact he did say it. But said two different things at two different times. But he did say it. They have 40 or 50 biolabs in Ukraine. That's 1/3 of the labs in the world. Placed in Ukraine. I posted about it as well as others. They are there specifically to kill and wipe out the Russian people. It's all been planned long ago. At first to destroy and break up Russia. Now it's just to wipe them out. All because President Putin AND the Russian people will not join the ranks of evil. I just posted a bit about it about a half hour ago. Father Gruner and John Vennari. But we know those things will never happen. But they with their hatred and pride think they can.
Thu Jun 18, 2026 - 4:56 pm EDTThu Jun 18, 2026 - 9:31 pm EDT (LifeSiteNews) — Over the past decade, many in the international press have openly wondered how Canada’s euthanasia regime went off the rails so swiftly and so grotesquely that other nations have decided against legalizing assisted suicide for fear of turning into Canada. There are, of course, many answers to that question, but one cannot be emphasized enough: Canada had essentially no open debate on assisted suicide in the press. After Canada’s Supreme Court magically discovered a “right to die” (in the right to life), the press celebrated. As legislation was debated, anti-euthanasia voices were conspicuously absent and ignored (with the lonely exception of Andrew Coyne, then at the National Post). In fact, when I turned on the CBC in my car one evening in a fit of apparent masochism in 2016 and heard them announce a debate on assisted suicide, I wondered who would be representing the pro-life side. The debate turned out …
Guaranteed they either have it already. Or they will allow it. Usually when they say something, it's already happening. US President Donald Trump has confirmed the licensed production of anti-aircraft missiles for Patriot systems in Ukraine is under consideration, specifying that no decision has been made yet. “They would like to be able to do that, we’ll take a look at it. They have asked about it,” Trump told reporters on Wednesday.
Sua Eccellenza Reverendissima Monsignor Davide Carbonaro ha conferito il sacramento della Cresima presso la Parrocchia della Santissima Trinità dei Pellegrini a Roma, affidata alla Fraternità Sacerdotale San Pietro (FSSP).
Leo XIV is considering declaring all members of the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (FSSPX) schismatics, TribuneChrétienne.com reported on 19 June, citing anonymous sources: "According to several observers familiar with the matter, the document currently being prepared at the Vatican could go much further than some imagine. It would not merely acknowledge a rupture affecting the bishops or superiors of the FSSPX. The repercussions could extend to the entire structure, including its approximately 700 priests, seminaries, apostolates and the faithful who regularly attend its chapels around the world." The bishops' ordinations are scheduled for 1 July, with Bishop Alfonso de Galarreta as the principal consecrator and Bishop Bernard Fellay as the co-consecrator. For weeks, rumours about the excommunication of all members of the FSSPX have persisted on various Catholic news blogs and among journalists. #newsYcngrgqppe
What would the excommunication mean? The excommunication in 1988 of the four bishops was lifted by Benedict without the bishop's admitting wrongdoing. Francis later gave the SSPX faculties for hearing confessions. What did that 1988 excommunication really mean, and what will this one mean?
The York Revolution is an American professional baseball team based in York, Pennsylvania. It is a member of the North Division of the Atlantic League of Professional Baseball, an independent "partner league" of Major League Baseball.
A Pennsylvania minor league baseball team has forfeited a scheduled game after several players refused to wear special jerseys planned for the organization’s annual Pride Night event. The York Revolution announced Tuesday that its June 18 game against the Southern Maryland Blue Crabs would not be played after multiple players objected to wearing uniforms created for the promotion. “It is with great disappointment that the York Revolution have issued important changes to our 11th Annual Pride Night on Thursday, June 18,” the team said in a statement. “Most significantly, the scheduled game between York and Southern Maryland will not be played and Pride will still be hosted as a free admission event.” According to the team, several players informed club officials they would not participate if required to wear the Pride Night jerseys. Rather than compel players to wear the uniforms, the organization opted to cancel the game while proceeding with the event. “Unfortunately, several of …
Peru President announces Pope Leo visit after Vatican meeting | Shalom World News ope Leo met with the President of the Republic of Peru, José María Balcázar Zelada, at the Vatican, holding continued discussions for strengthening ties between the Holy See and Peru. Following the meeting, President Balcázar announced that Pope Leo will visit Peru in November, with a possible stay of up to 10 days. The reported itinerary includes Lima, the city of Chiclayo — where Pope Leo, then Cardinal Robert Prevost, served as bishop — and other dioceses. Meanwhile, the Vatican is yet to officially announce the papal journey. The visit would carry a special significance, as Pope Leo has a deep connection with Peru, having been ordained bishop of Chiclayo and later obtaining Peruvian citizenship in 2015.
The homosexual group Outreach, founded and led by the homosexual activist James Martin SJ, organises its annual conference on June 19-21 at the Jesuit-run Georgetown University. From 2021 to 2024, Francis sent an endorsement message. In 2026, two US Cardinals support the homosexual conference. Outreach published endorsement letters by Cardinal Robert McElroy of Washington and Cardinal Blase Cupich of Chicago (below). Cardinal McElroy wrote on June 19 that he is “delighted” to welcome the homosexual group in Washington, adding: “For I know that the Holy Spirit will be profoundly present in our meetings and discussions at this key time in the history of our Church and our nation.” He wrote that the conference is taking place “at a moment when the pastoral foundations laid by Pope Francis for authentic ministry to and with the LGBT community are being deepened and refined by Pope Leo.” Cardinal McElroy further stressed that the conference comes “directly after the release of Study …เพิ่มเติม
