Leo XIV appoints enemy of Roman Mass, Archbishop Viola, as archpriest of St. Peter’s – “More to the left than Andrea Grillo”, wears Bugnini’s ring. Today, Pope Leo XIV appointed Archbishop Vittorio Francesco Viola, 61, O.F.M., as Archpriest of St. Peter’s Basilica, Vicar General for Vatican City, and President of the Fabric of St. Peter. He succeeds Cardinal Mauro Gambetti. Monsignor Viola will likely be created a cardinal, as every listed Archpriest of St. Peter’s for hundreds of years has been a cardinal. In 2021, when he was Bishop of Tortona, Francis appointed him Secretary of the Dicastery for Divine Worship. Viola’s career was strongly supported by Archbishop Domenico Sorrentino, who served as Prelate of Pompeii, Secretary of the Congregation for Divine Worship, and later Bishop of Assisi. In Assisi, he worked closely with Viola, who was active in Franciscan, liturgical, and charitable work. Archbishop Viola is part of the circle inspired by Archbishop Annibale Bugnini, the architect …More
Sin is no love. Heretical situation's ethics is back.
Concubinages may contain “authentic love” - Leo XIV-appointed Bishop at the 'Amoris Laetitia' meeting. At the Vatican meeting marking ten years of Amoris Laetitia, Bishop Stephen Fernandes, 65, spoke on October 9 about accompanying unmarried couples. Leo XIV had apointed him as auxiliary bishop of Bombay, India, in October 2025. Discussing differences between countries, Bishop Fernandes said: “The Gospel remains one, but pastoral pathways cannot be identical everywhere.” Addressing cohabitation, he said that “we should resist both indifference and condemnation.” He proposed asking: “What is already good in their relationship? Where can we discern signs of generosity, fidelity, responsibility and grace?” Fernandes also questioned whether moving such couples toward marriage should be the sole objective: “The question is not simply: How can we move this couple towards a wedding? It is also: Are these two people truly called to marriage, and are they ready to enter into a lifelong marital …More
This… is not great news. For years, Viola has been identified as the éminence grise (no pun intended) behind Cardinal Roche’s maneuvers against the Traditional Latin Rite. Now, he is elevated to a central position in the Vatican, and as a probable future Cardinal.
Homily October 11, 2026 Isaiah 25:6-10a “The Lord will provide for all peoples a feast.” He is ready. Let us receive all of God’s grace. Philippians 4:12-14, 19-20 “I know how to live in humble circumstances.” Joy, peace, and the love of God cost nothing. Matthew 22:1-14 “Come to the feast.” Let’s stay with God, in God.

Why Modern Marriage Crumbles Beneath the Rebellion of Decades of Lawlessness You sit in your houses, weeping over the wreckage of your broken vows, pointing your soft, therapeutic fingers at "poor communication" and "unmet emotional needs." You treat marriage like a marketplace for mutual self-admiration, a perpetual indulgence of the passions, and a playground for unrestrained desire. Repent. You are looking at the smoke while ignoring the fire. What you call a "modern marriage" is no marriage at all. It is nothing more than a glorified shack-up between two so-called equals—the terrible, rotten fruit of the 1960s sexual revolution, which tore down the moral fences of Christendom and baptized lawlessness as liberty. If you stripped away the cowardice of this age and listened to the unyielding voice of the ancient Fathers—confirmed and systematically sealed by the angelic doctor Thomas Aquinas—you would see why your dwellings are falling into the dust. You have committed a double rebellion …More
I CAN DO ALL THINGS THROUG CHRIST WHO STRENGTHENS ME Liturgy of October 11, 2026– 28th Sunday in Ordinary Time Dear brothers and sisters, let us allow ourselves to be inspired and guided by saints like Saint Paul—who belong, so to speak, to the Church’s "special forces." Indeed, in the passage from his Letter to the Philippians that we're going to listen to on Sunday, October 11, Saint Paul invites us to let God empower us—in body and spirit—so that, like him (who was "trained for anything: plenty and hunger, abundance and want”, because he could do everything through Jesus who gave him strength, —cf. Phil 4:12-13), we too may become capable of facing every situation, even the most extreme, in order to proclaim the Good News of the Gospel to our brothers and sisters. In fact, as Jesus will remind us in the passage from the Gospel of Matthew, God the Father invites every man and women to renounce their vain plans and useless ideologies in order to share in the extraordinary feast He is …More
After posting one Colombian who was spared by the Russian Soldiers, this one didn't make it. He died in the war. This is not unusual. Ukraine is desperate for men. When men sign up, they are badly miss treated and forgotten on the front lines. And one proof after the other is posted. However, there are a few who side with the globalist and elites and spread propaganda. And they insist Ukraine is winning. Russia has invaded Ukraine. When they were all proven to be nothing but propaganda. Proof is what people should seek. Not mere words and fake pictures and such. I and a few others on gtv will keep bringing you the truth. If you decide to ignore it and still defend Ukraine, then that's your choice. But I prefer truth and proof over lies and hatred. Sorry, but that's just how it is.
