A televised statement by the Poor Clares of Belorado, who have joined a sedevacantist sect, has left the Archbishop of Burgos, Mario Iceta, emotionally challenged ("very painful"), writes ReligionDigital.org (16 May). The nuns have declared that Francis is "a heretic and usurper" and that there has not been a valid Pope since Pius XII. Mgr Iceta mentioned that a change of abbess was due on 29 May. He wants to "build bridges" and sit down with the nuns "when the conditions are right", but "at the moment they are not, with all the media tsunami". He is "particularly concerned about the older sisters who are not at their best mentally". One of the nuns, Sister Amparo, has left the community. She saw some suspicious things but didn't know what was going on in her convent. The story she can tell is very fragmentary. For about a year, the nuns have been in contact with the sedevacantist leader Pablo de Rojas, who, according to InfoVaticana.com, likes extravagant furniture, clothes and servants …More

MEDITATION FOR PENTECOST SUNDAY The Holy Spirit that my Father will send in my name, will teach you and suggest to you all the things that I have said to you . (S. John, ch. 14) I. Consider the extreme charity and the excessive goodness that God shows today to his Church, giving her his Spirit and his love, and bringing down upon her the very source of all heavenly gifts . We can truly say that on this holy day the cataracts of heaven were opened, that the fountains of the great abyss of graces were as it were broken, and that a new flood of love and charity spread over Earth. After this, can it be that your soul will always remain like dry and barren land? and should you not expose your heart to this celestial dew, so that it may be abundantly penetrated and watered with this living water which springs up to eternal life? Therefore join your sentiments to those of the whole Church, and say with her: Come, O Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of the Faithful, and kindle in them the fire of …More

It is the descent of the Holy Spirit on the Apostles. After having received the last blessing of the divine Master on the Mount of Olives, the Apostles, deeply distressed at no longer seeing him in their midst, but docile to his orders, trusting in the promise he had made to them of not leaving them orphans on earth, withdrew to the upper room, and there, collected in silence and prayer, they prepared to receive the consoling Spirit that Jesus Christ had promised them. Towards the morning of the tenth day, the anniversary of the forever memorable day when the ancient law was given to the Jews on Mount Sinai, in the midst of thunderbolts and lightning a great noise was heard, not like the sound of thunder and lightning. the shrill sound of the trumpets which once sounded on Sinai, but like an impetuous wind, which, without being threatening or terrible, filled the whole house where they were gathered, and seemed to call all Jerusalem to the beautiful spectacle that God was going to give …More

QUESTION 35 — THE IMAGE 1. Is the Word “Image” a personal name in God? 2. Is it a name proper to the Son? Article 1 — Is the Word “Image” a personal name in God? Objections: 1. The book De fide ad Petrum speaks of “the one deity and image of the Trinity, that image after which man was made.” This means that “image” is an essential attribute, and not a personal name. 2 . S. Hilaire defines the image thus: “It is the exact species of the thing that it represents. ” Species or form, this is indeed an essential attribute in God. It is therefore the same for “image”. 3. Image derives from imitate; and this denotes an order of priority of the model on the image. But there is no order of priority among the divine Persons. It is therefore that in God the Image is not a personal name. On the contrary , S. Augustine writes: “To claim that image is an absolute term, what could be more absurd? ” In other words, “image” is attributed in God as a relative term. It is therefore a personal name. Answer: …More

The soul should be solely the dwelling place of God. It is inseparable from our Lord Jesus Christ . By throwing God out you will not fill it with anything but emptiness which will slowly destroy you Your mind will become dulled you will not be able to analyse correctly what is truth and what is a lie. You become like a sponge taking in all the sewage of this world, until eventually evil will begin to pour out of you, like the venom of a snake ready to destroy anyone who thinks differently. No, it is not true that Satan can take over someone’s soul, this is firstly impossible because it is the property of God, and secondly Satan despises humans so to dwell in a person’s soul would be a humiliation for him. Yes, contempt for man causes Satan to want to trample us like vermin. Man without God in his soul becomes a mindless creature that needs to be fed and then he will do whatever he is told.

“Every home art and craft has come back into vogue: sourdough starters, gardening, knitting, homesteading, sewing, and interior design. Americans spend billions of dollars on our homes not just so they can be beautiful, but in the little-recognized hope that they can become sanctuaries, places that nourish, comfort, and embrace those who live in them. But the physical home cannot do these things on its own. It needs a homemaker.”

On 28 April, in the parish of Our Lady of the Rosary, known as the Sanctuary of Santa Terezinha, in Taubaté, São Paulo, Brazil, a priest disrespected a faithful and refused him Communion (video below). The communicant was kneeling. Rev. Silvio José Dias tried to force the faithful to receive the Communion with his hands, but the layman refused to touch the Body of Christ [Noli me tangere" / "Do not touch me" Jn 20:17]. As a result, the disrespectful priest denied him Communion and turned around. The Archdiocese of São Paulo told Metropoles.com (16 May) that a member of the faithful who is in a state of grace has a "right" to receive Communion. "In situations where there is a risk of the Eucharist falling or being desecrated, such as in large crowds, it is recommended that Communion not be distributed in the hand". The archdiocese added that in "exceptional circumstances", such as a "health emergency", a bishop may allow grabbing Communion with the hand [as if this were "more hygienic"]. …More

In a meeting with 800 priests and religious in the Basilica of San Zeno during his visit to Verona on 18 May, Francis once again promoted formalism by calling for cheap absolution after an empty confession. He overlooked the fact that confession has virtually died out after Vatican II precisely because of such formalism. "Confession should not be a torture," he said, as if anyone had ever claimed it was. Then Francis, who is known to be vindictive and unforgiving, added: "Please forgive everything" and "forgive without making them suffer" - something Francis himself has never done since he has been running the Vatican. If the priest doesn't understand what the penitent is saying, he should go on, because "the Lord understands", Francis said, revealing a magical understanding of confession. Francis recalled a cardinal, a confessor [Cardinal Luis Pasqual Dri OFMcap, 96], who, when someone "had difficulty saying things", would tell the penitent: "Go on. I didn't understand, but God understood …More

Since this man is monumentally conceited and political, he may want to be buried there so he will be segregated from other popes and a cult could more easily be formed around him, with the location of his body becoming a pilgrimage site for all his fellow non-believing “Catholic” fans, and they could be inspired to continue their yet unfinished goal of dismantling the Church.
