Asked about the Mass in the Roman rite, Cardinal Jaime Spengler of Porto Alegre, Brazil, said that “the river doesn’t flow backwards.” He spoke with VidaNuevaDigital.com on January 16. The cardinal is president of the bishops’ conferences of Brazil and Latin America (CELAM). His main statement echoes the historically weak ideas promoted by Cardinal Roche at the consistory on January 7-8. Cardinal Spengler said, “Throughout history, the liturgy has undergone various reforms. The Second Vatican Council represents an enormous effort to recover fundamental elements of Catholic liturgical celebration. Nostalgic proposals do not help to promote what the Council identified as essential for the liturgy.” Furthermore, Cardinal Spengler offered a pointless definition of the Eucharist: “Liturgy cannot be understood simply as an expression of religious practice; above all, it is a vigorous expression of a lived experience of faith, both personal and communal - an experience of encounter with …ད་རུང་།

1) "Reforms", yes. but the N.O. is not a reform. It's a purge. It's an emptying out, a replacement, not quite a confection as implied by it's creators or adherents, but more like a conjuration, applied by those more self assured than confidant, more visionary than inciteful, more desparate than diciplined 2) "Recover fundamental elements". One could argue the point, but no, in practice: remove and replace fundamental elements. 3) Flow backwards? Then why seek to "recover"? 4) "a vigorous expression of a lived experience of faith, both personal and communal". This could take volumes and in fact has. In short, it may be all of these things, but is it the faith [that was recovered]? Or something else; and if so, what is this expression saying? And from where does it come?And what has it produced? I'm reminded of something... youtube.com/watch?v=B4M-54cEduo

Breaking News Gut Cure: How to restore your microbiome so your body can do what it was designed to do Your gut microbiome acts as a command centre for digestion, immunity, metabolism and brain health; when microbial diversity drops, symptoms often go beyond digestion. Short-chain fatty acids (“SCFAs”), especially butyrate, are essential compounds made by healthy gut bacteria that help repair your gut lining, calm inflammation, stabilise blood sugar and support mental clarity. Modern diets heavy in seed oils (including linoleic acid), emulsifiers and ultra-processed foods disrupt beneficial bacteria and reduce butyrate production, leaving your gut undernourished even if you eat “healthy” foods. Simple changes, such as replacing seed oils with stable fats like butter, ghee or coconut oil, can lower inflammation, rebalance your microbiome and help your body begin healing from the inside out. Let’s not lose touch…Your Government and Big Tech are actively trying to censor the information …
Cardinal Michael Czerny, SJ, 79, said that during the consistory on 7-8 January, he did not hear anyone say, "Oh, I’m sorry we didn’t discuss the liturgy". He told the Substack.com-account The Pillar on 13 January, that what Leo XIV will do with the Mass of the Roman Rite is "beyond my pay grade": "I can’t speculate about how he intends to approach the situation. But I can’t imagine a pope who wouldn’t want to bring peace to the Church. I think every pope since St Peter would want that," the cardinal speculated. In general, he found the consistory a "healthy" exercise. "As soon as we got together and realised that the first thing we would do was spend the whole afternoon discussing it, we realised we were already at work. People immediately switched into gear. All three sessions were good." "Not Possible Without Pope Francis" When asked if the lack of collegiality among the cardinals wasn’t the elephant in the room under Francis, Cardinal Czerny denied it, saying: “No, quite the …ད་རུང་།
Just as the democracy of the French Revolution destroyed the monarchy, synodality seeks to destroy the structure of the Church. As for the liturgy, it's understandable that they don't want to discuss it, since the traditional liturgy doesn't fit with modernist doctrine.
PART OF THE MEANING OF THE CROSS AND THE LETTER "A" IN THE SKY AS THE LORD LET ME KNOW, The 7 trumpets (a trumpet is a warning, though some crazy people they hear sounds and say they hear the trumpets, when they do not understand the bible symbolism some even dare to say that Donald Trump because of Trump is one of the Trumpets mentioned in the Book of revelation the Apocalypse, when it's not, lunacy is what it is with these fanatic speaking nuisance. Last name Trump has nothing to do with the 7 Trumpets or 7 warnings given by heaven to humanity, we living now in the 5th and 6th Trumpet. These are signs, warnings to all of us to wake up because once the last warning or the 7 Trumpet is given, then we will have the cups of chastisement. The 7 seals are 7 heavenly secrets that are revealed to humanity to destroy the influence and power of the anti-christ in the souls, but not all souls will break away form such power.

Merry Christmas to everyone and to all your loved ones. A great sermon on Saint Joseph this Christmas. Jeffrey Ade St. Joseph and the Mystery of Christmas God gives special graces to those whom He elects for special missions. After the role of the Mother of God, the most important office in God’s Plan is the role of St. Joseph: father to the Christ Child and protector of His most chaste mother. St. Joseph was born free of original sin, never committed actual sin, and made a vow of celibacy. After a time in Limbo, his body was assumed into Heaven. The Incarnation (Christmas) was always in the Mind of the God. Thus, He eternally predestined that His Son have a true Mother and a holy guardian. It is fitting that we honor Mary with hyperdulia and St. Joseph with protodulia. Remember to say 3 Hail Marys for the priest.
According to St. Bridget of Sweden Saint Joseph distributes all the graces, virtues and gifts after Blessed Virgin, being just 'a level' below Most Holy Mary. It looks that Saint Joseph is Number 2 under Mary among the Saints. Happy those who ask Him for help! Best kept secret.
On 15 January, Catholics in the Diocese of Charlotte, North Carolina, prayed the Rosary publicly to protest against recent liturgical restrictions imposed by Bishop Michael Martin. These measures ban the use of kneelers for Communion, which will take effect on 16 January. The faithful gathered in front of the diocesan pastoral centre in an act of reparation.
January 15 in Charlotte, in the cold and in front of the chancery, faithful gathered to pray for our diocese, for Bishop Martin, and in reparation for his liturgical directives.
“Grandkids are a little like an inheritance — they come to you for free.” No work required. No merit. No tests or sacrifices. They just… fall into your life like a small miracle. You don’t have to walk through heartbreak, marriage struggles, or the pain of labor. And yet a grandchild is your blood — your continuation. With age comes a quiet nostalgia — for the things that once belonged to you, but slipped away with your youth. And you catch yourself thinking, “My God… when did my children grow up?” The loud little rascals with scraped knees somehow turned into adults with jobs, mortgages, deadlines, and responsibilities. And you don’t always recognize in them the kids you once carried on your hip. Those children became men and women — not the little ones you remember. And then, out of nowhere, without pregnancy or delivery or any of the chaos in between — a doctor places a newborn in your arms. A gift. A piece of your past returned to you. No tears. No labor. No fear. Just that …ད་རུང་།

Saint Berard And Companions Protomartyrs - January 16 breski1 on Jan 21, 2010 (d. 1220) Preaching the gospel is often dangerous work. Leaving one’s homeland and adjusting to new cultures, governments and languages is difficult enough; but martyrdom caps all the other sacrifices. In 1219 with the blessing of St. Francis, Berard left Italy with Peter, Adjute, Accurs, Odo and Vitalis to preach in Morocco. En route in Spain Vitalis became sick and commanded the other friars to continue their mission without him. They tried preaching in Seville, then in Muslim hands, but made no converts. They went on to Morocco where they preached in the marketplace. The friars were immediately apprehended and ordered to leave the country; they refused. When they began preaching again, an exasperated sultan ordered them executed. After enduring severe beatings and declining various bribes to renounce their faith in Jesus Christ, the friars were beheaded by the sultan himself on January 16, 1220. These were …ད་རུང་།

Unlike his beloved predecessor, Leo XIV will not carry out the Holy Thursday foot washing in a prison or with transgender participants, but at the Lateran Basilica. This has been confirmed by the schedule released by the Prefecture of the Papal Household. He will celebrate the Eucharist of the Lord’s Supper there in the evening, after the Chrism Eucharist at St Peter's in the morning.
Tucker Carlson asked Putin if he sees "the supernatural" and "God" at work in world events. Putin: "No, to be honest. ... My opinion is that the development of the world community is in accordance with inherent laws," i.e., natural "processes". This is not a Christian answer.
No it's a far cry from a christian answer, we would do well no to trust leaders of any country, gees we can't even trust the (fake) leader of the one true church let alone anyone else.
