New Vatican Prefectessa Is Divorced: Montse Alvarado, the new Prefect of the Vatican Dicastery for Communication, stated in an interview on Youtube.com on March 10, 2025: "I'm not married, but I am annulled in the Church, and I think it's important to talk about that too, for people to realize that annulment brings you closer to the Church and closer to Christ."
Montse Alvarado: “I'm not married, but I am annulled in the church, and I think it's important to talk about that too, for people to realize that annulment brings you closer to the church and closer to Christ.” This is the new Prefect of the Vatican Dicastery for Communication in a video on March 10, 2025.
Anyone claiming 'annulment brings you closer to the Church and closer to Christ' likely should have not been granted an annulment until such a misconception/misunderstanding could be clarified. Her declaration seems like a (proud) advertisement for annulment. Is this the kind of skewed 'communications' we can expect from her office? In and of itself, her annulment would not disqualify her from the job but her perspective certainly should. As bungled a piece of communication as one could fabricate.

Or that polio has only “disappeared” because cases were simply reclassified? In this broadcast, Kla.TV documents how brazenly numbers and statistics are manipulated to prove supposed vaccination successes. Kla.TV presents astonishing facts that are rarely discussed and that may be completely new even to long-time vaccination critics. Don’t miss this important program! Source. It is very easy to manipulate people through tricks and the misinterpretation of statistical data. This is especially true when the mainstream media bombards the public with such information. This gives rise to deeply rooted myths that—like the fairy tale of a miracle cure—take hold despite all logic and contrary to the findings of independent scientists.

June 8 Saint William Of York. breski1 Jun 8, 2010 (d. 1154) A disputed election as archbishop of York and a mysterious death. Those are the headlines from the tragic life of today's saint. Born into a powerful family in 12th-century England, William seemed destined for great things. His uncle was next in line for the English throne—though a nasty dynastic struggle complicated things. William himself faced an internal Church feud. Despite these roadblocks, he was nominated as archbishop of York in 1140. Local clergymen were less enthusiastic, however, and the archbishop of Canterbury refused to consecrate William. Three years later a neighboring bishop performed the consecration, but it lacked the approval of Pope Innocent II, whose successors likewise withheld approval. William was deposed and a new election was ordered. It was not until 1154—14 years after he was first nominated—that William became archbishop of York. When he entered the city that spring after years of exile, he …More

Day two in Spain: ‘What legacy are we leaving … More than 1.2 million people celebrated the Feast of Corpus Christi with Pope Leo XIV in the Plaza de Cibeles—a famous symbol of the city of Madrid—on the second day of his Apostolic Journey to Spain. Surrounded by pilgrims from across the world, the Pope reflected on the mystery the Church commemorates on this day, stressing that in Spain, Corpus Christi is more than just a liturgical celebration. The Catholic traditions in which the Spanish faith and history are rooted, including floral arrangements and solemn processions, “have for centuries shaped the piety, art, music, architecture and life of the Spanish people.” However, he stressed that these are not meant to be seen as part of an exhibition or folklore. Rather, a profession of faith. More than looking back at the history of the country, Pope Leo outlined a task for “Spain today and in the future: to ensure that the religiosity which has shaped and defined this country for …More
Lebanon entrusted to Mary in a powerful national consecration | Shalom World News In a nation still marked by the scars of conflict, fear, and deep uncertainty, the Maronite Patriarchate in Bkerké led Lebanon in a solemn act of consecration, entrusting the country to the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

1 Corinthians 10:16 -- The chalice of benediction, which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ ? And the bread, which we break, is it not the partaking of the body of the Lord ? For we, being many, are one bread, one body, all that partake of one bread.
