Leo XIV. wünscht den Gläubigen frohe Ostern in zehn Sprachen: Italienisch, Französisch, Englisch, Deutsch, Spanisch, Portugiesisch, Polnisch, Arabisch, Mandarin-Chinesisch und Latein
And isn't this the same apostate who wishes Muslims a Happy Ramadan? And who congratulates an Anglican heretic? And who allows himself to be subjected to the incantations of shamans? All while brazenly presenting himself as the pope of all false religions—and, moreover, demanding to be recognized as Pope.
Mel Gibson's prayer while filming The Resurrection of the Christ: "Graciously send thy defender, Michael, to protect all involved in this holy project from the attacks of Satan."
Every night I give a Latin blessing to the housekeeper. As soon as I begin the blessing, my dog wakes up from sleep and follows me to my sleeping quarters.
Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint John 20,11-18. Mary Magdalene stayed outside the tomb weeping. And as she wept, she bent over into the tomb and saw two angels in white sitting there, one at the head and one at the feet where the body of Jesus had been. And they said to her, "Woman, why are you weeping?" She said to them, "They have taken my Lord, and I don't know where they laid him." When she had said this, she turned around and saw Jesus there, but did not know it was Jesus. Jesus said to her, "Woman, why are you weeping? Whom are you looking for?" She thought it was the gardener and said to him, "Sir, if you carried him away, tell me where you laid him, and I will take him." Jesus said to her, "Mary!" She turned and said to him in Hebrew, "Rabbouni," which means Teacher. Jesus said to her, "Stop holding on to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father. But go to my brothers and tell them, 'I am going to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.'" Mary of …Ibindi
During today’s Regina Caeli prayer, Leo XIV paid tribute to his predecessor for his “great witness of faith and love.” Francis died on Easter Monday last year (April 21, 2025) at the age of 88. Leo XIV said, “In the light of the Risen Lord, we remember Pope Francis today with special affection.” Fittingly, he warned that the truth is often obscured by fake news, “that is, by lies, insinuations, and unfounded suspicions.” #newsTqowhltbxb
The Ukrainian leader honored the top EU diplomat for supporting forced mobilization, corruption, and church raids, Russia has said EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas has received a prominent Ukrainian award for encouraging prolonged fighting, forced mobilization, and supporting a crackdown on the country’s largest Christian denomination, Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova has said. Earlier this week, Zelensky decorated Kallas – widely regarded as an anti-Russia hawk – with the Order of Princess Olga, as the two discussed EU support for Kiev. Princess Olga of the Kievan Rus was the first Christian ruler of the realm, establishing contact with Byzantium in the 10th century and paving the way for the mass baptism of Rus under her grandson Prince Vladimir in 988 AD. Kallas said she was honored by the award, adding that “Ukraine has been on my mind every day since Russia started its war of aggression.” She acknowledged, however, that she had no positive update for Kiev …Ibindi
Bishop Robert Barron has spoken out against criticism of his appearance at last week's White House Easter Lunch: 'In regard to the event at the White House, I had absolutely no control over what the other ministers said. My own contribution was focused on Jesus and the events of Holy Week--and I prayed for the country and that the President would govern according to God's will. To draw the conclusion that I am some mindless supporter of the MAGA movement is a calumny'
Fourteen thousand people registered in a single day for the 2026 Notre-Dame de Chrétienté pilgrimage on the Paris–Chartres route, compared to 6,000 on the first day last year. The pilgrimage will take place over Pentecost, from May 23 to 25, and is expected to gather 20,000 participants walking to Chartres. A new, more accessible option - the “Jerusalem Route” - has been introduced. Shorter than the traditional 100 km walk (around 70 km), it is designed for those unable to complete the full distance. Like the main route, it also ends in Chartres, allowing more pilgrims to take part in the final stages of the pilgrimage. #newsChiagvdgui

Founded the Brothers of the Christian Schools (Christian Brothers or La Salle Brothers) in 1681, established and supported academic education for all boys. He liquidated his personal fortune, and his Brothers expected him to use it to further his education goals, but he surprised them by saying they would have to depend on Providence. The money (about $400,000) was given away to the poor in the form of bread during the great famine of 1683–1684. Saint John kept enough to endow a salary …Ibindi

[St. Anthony of Padua XII-XIII Century AD; Lisbon, Kingdom of Portugal/Padua, Holy Roman Empire; (aged 35); powerful preaching, expert knowledge of scripture, and undying love and devotion to the poor and the sick; canonized less than a year after his death; Doctor of the Church] 9 ~ St. Saint Anthony Consoler of persecuted Women St. Anthony always took a great interest in women in- distress, or persecuted, and they therefore look on him as their special protector. Among those who, owing to the sanctity of the Franciscans, held them in great veneration and aided them in their daily wants, was a lady who suffered much from a jealous and irritable husband. One evening, after finishing some work and making some purchases for the Brothers, finding it too late to take them to the monastery that night, she took them home with her. This so greatly roused the anger and jealousy of her husband that, not content with loading her with reproaches, he pulled almost all her hair off her head. The poor …Ibindi
"12 ~ The Carved Capon St. Anthony was one day invited by a party of heretics to come to dine with them, in order, as they said, to give them the opportunity of laughing at his stupidity. He good-naturedly accepted their invitation. After sit ting down to table a large bat, such as are found in Sicily, was served up to him, with the request to carve it. When, without being the least disconcerted, he began to do so, they could hardly refrain from laughing aloud; but soon their laughter was changed into astonishment, for hardly had the saint begun to carve the wretched bird before it was changed into a magnificent capon, emitting the most delicious smell. This miracle so completely changed their hearts that they not only acknowledged the power of the servant of God, but renounced their errors and were received into the Church.”
Queen of Heaven, most blessed among women, who art crowned with the stars and clothed with the sun, look with favor, we pray, on these thy children who seek to glorify thy Divine Son. Graciously send thy defender, Michael, to protect all involved in this holy project from the attacks of Satan, and to preserve them from every spiritual and physical harm.
Fri Oct 17, 2025 - 8:00 pm EDTFri Oct 17, 2025 - 8:25 pm EDT (LifeSiteNews) — On this week’s episode of Faith and Reason, John-Henry Westen, Father Charles Murr, and Frank Wright discussed the prayer the cast and crew of “The Resurrection of the Christ” are reciting for protection while filming that Mel Gibson shared exclusively with LifeSiteNews. The panel also discussed Jim Caviezel being recast for the highly anticipated film, Pope Leo getting caught on a hot mic telling American bishops to raise their voices about immigration, Leo appointing Cardinal Blase Cupich to the Pontifical Commission of the Vatican City State, and more. Westen read a prayer Mel Gibson has shared with LifeSiteNews, which the cast, directors, producers, and entire crew of “The Resurrection of the Christ,” the much-anticipated follow-up to his 2004 film “The Passion of the Christ,” are reciting as they begin filming in Rome. The prayer invokes the protection of the Blessed Virgin Mary, St. Michael the …
“Sudden And Unexpected” @toobaffled “I was the very first person in Canada to obtain the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine contract between Pfizer and the Canadian government, after a years-long battle through a freedom of information request. After reading the contract, what really stood out to me was this clause, which specifically said: “Purchaser further acknowledges that the long-term effects and efficacy of the vaccine are not currently known and that there may be adverse effects of the vaccine that are not currently known. Further, to the extent applicable, Purchaser acknowledges that the Product shall not be serialized.” So, of course, after reading that, it was clear the Canadian government was signing Canadians up to put an experimental, unproven vaccine into their bodies, while telling everyone it was safe and effective, even though they literally had no idea. About a year later, I submitted another freedom of information request to the Canadian government asking for: “Any and all …Ibindi
Hundreds of empty seats during Leo XIV’s Easter Vigil: Matt Butorac, a Catholic pilgrimage guide, reported on X that there were “hundreds of empty seats” during the Easter Vigil at St Peter’s Basilica. The screenshots, taken from a video he shared for "those claiming it was not empty", show the basilica during the baptisms. Butorac attributes this to ticketing issues and disorganised queues. However, shortly before the Eucharist began, entry was permitted without tickets and everyone was able to enter.
EMTY SEATS: Catholic Traveler had a video on X.com from yesterday's Easter Night Eucharist with Leo XIV. Screenshots (fair use)
@sp2 I see your point and you could be correct. The published pic on this site showed less than a dozen empty seats which were probably in the back of the church. Unfortunately, too many media-types on both sides of any issue are inclined to push a narrative rather than inform their readers.
I was looking at 6:12, also in the dark at 22:24 In the dark, there are some areas without candle light, but to claim it's "Hundreds"....... for crying out loud....... the original post is trying to present it to be an MT house. Is the originator of the post an instigator? Don't be like Francis and say partial truths to present a point........ I want the whole picture.
04/07/2026 Entire blog as a free PDF eBook. Monday, April 6, 2026. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps announced that it had attacked the landing ship “Tripoli,” which can carry up to 2,500 marines, with missiles. There is no information available regarding possible damage to the ship. Following the attack, the ship retreated southward and moved away from the Iranian coast. One could say that it employed the “Abraham Lincoln” strategy. The next U.S. warship, built as a deterrent, is turning its propeller and hastily leaving the conflict zone. The proponents of the American defense shield have fallen silent. As the myth of U.S. invincibility crumbles and the previous strategy—hiring U.S. military units to secure borders against an imaginary enemy—even the greatest statesmen of the caliber of Emmanuel Macron, Friedrich Merz, or Keir Starmer—who have always been pathetic puppets of the globalists—distance themselves, at the behest of Davos, from the pathetic policies of the pro-Zionist …
