VaticanNews.va ir publicējis rakstu par Annu Medeossi, pirmo sievieti, kas ieņem katoļu svētnīcas rektores amatu. Itālijas arhitekte un svētītā jaunava jau gandrīz gadu pilda Notre-Dame de Santa Cruz svētnīcas rektores pienākumus Oranā, Alžīrijā. Sākotnēji viņa iesaistījās svētnīcas darbā kā arhitekte, strādājot pie tās renovācijas. Svētnīcu galvenokārt apmeklē musulmaņi.

First woman rector of a shrine: Witnessing to the Gospel through listening

[vaticannews] At the Rimini Meeting, we spoke with Anna Medeossi, who has been entrusted with the care of Notre-Dame de Santa Cruz in Oran, Algeria, about her story of encounter, faith, and listening.
By Eugenio Murrali and Andrea Tornielli - Rimini
Anna Medeossi has a lively and determined gaze, gentleness in her voice and gestures, and a wisdom that is both humble and profound.
An architect originally from the Italian city of Gorizia, she might never have imagined what life would call her to do nearly a year ago: become the first woman in the world to serve as rector of a shrine.
That distinction takes on even greater significance because of where the shrine is located: Notre-Dame de Santa Cruz in Oran, Algeria, an overwhelmingly Muslim country.
Images of the shrine she oversees were seen around the world on the occasion of the beatification of the Martyrs of Algeria.
From architecture to caring for the shrine
Her arrival at Santa Cruz—where she now also lives as a consecrated virgin …Vairāk

Contemporary Dance Integrated into Assumption Liturgy in Mallorca

Worse than Germany: A contemporary dance and sound performance was incorporated into the celebration of the Solemnity of the Assumption at the Church of Sant Joan Baptista in Muro, Mallorca. It was entitled El Vol Màgic (“The Magic Flight”).
According to the Diocese of Mallorca, the work was “conceived specifically for the liturgical context of the celebration of the Assumption of the Mother of God.”
The project was directed by a musician and developed together with a dancer and choreographer, an organist, and a sound specialist.
According to the diocesan description, the project grew out of research into Mallorca’s traditional observances surrounding the Assumption and sought to explore the relationship between “sound, body, space and ritual.”

„Žēlsirdības Mātes” kapela Kolumbusā, Ohaio štatā, jau sākotnēji bija skaista romānikas stila baznīca, taču 20. gadsimta beigās veiktās pārbūves bija mazinājušas tās svētnīcas vienotību. 2025. gadā arhitektu birojs „William Heyer Architect” aizstāja nelielo mūsdienīgo priekšējo altāri ar rokām izgrebtu, brīvi stāvošu koka altāri, kas labāk atbilst vēsturiskā interjera raksturam. Galvenā pārveide bija Rudolfa Šeflera 1950. gados radītās sienas gleznojuma „Kristus Karalis” apsīdā paplašināšana. Tagad jauni svētie un sakrālie simboli aizņem iepriekš tukšās vietas ap sākotnējo kompozīciju.

Home » Architecture , Painting » Before and After: Mother of Mercy Chapel at St. Charles Preparatory School in Columbus, Ohio The firm of William Heyer Architect is located in Columbus, Ohio and in 2025 they were involved in a beautification project at the (already quite beautiful) Mother of Mercy Chapel located at the St. Charles Preparatory School in Columbus, Ohio. The chapel was already built around the substantial architectural bones of a Romanesque style architecture, with stone walls, columns with decorative capitals, an open-trussed timber ceiling, and an impressive apse featuring and image of Christ the King enthroned. Let's jump right into things with the 'before.' BEFORE Many of our 'before and afters' feature a parish that had either been stripped of its liturgical appointments and ornaments at some point, or some which never had them in the first place. In this instance, while we can certainly see some evidence of the later twentieth century modifications, the chapel …

Karš pret seno misi ir postošs Baznīcai – kardināls Sāra

Kad 68. gada paaudze aizies no dzīves, kopā ar to izzudīs arī nepamatotās, vienpusējās attieksmes pret latīņu valodu un gregoriskajiem dziedājumiem, 27. augustā portālam IlGiornale.it sacīja kardināls Roberts Sara.
Kardināls Sāra norādīja, ka Benedikta XVI veiktā tradicionālās latīņu mises liberalizācija ir bijusi pozitīva un pat koriģējoša ietekme uz pārkāpumiem Novus Ordo svinēšanā.
„Daudzi priesteri liecina, ka ārkārtas formas atklāšana palīdzēja viņiem labāk svinēt misu.”
Turklāt ticīgie varēja izvēlēties, kura forma vairāk atbilst ticības stiprināšanai.
„Taču visam tam pēkšņu galu pielika „Traditionis Custodes”, kamēr emeritētais pāvests vēl bija dzīvs.”
Franciska noteiktie ierobežojumi attiecībā uz latīņu misu bija „ne gudra, ne arī cieņpilna izvēle”.
Kardināls Sāra piebilda, ka piekļuvi „rituālajām formām, kas pastāv jau gadsimtiem, nekad nevar mākslīgi ierobežot ar dekrētiem“.
Neskatoties uz to, ka kardināls Sāra tieši neatsaucās uz Novus Ordo, viņš norādīja, ka rituāls, kas …Vairāk

Two pastors fined W1m each for disrupting flight with loud preaching - The Korea Herald

This unrelated file photo shows the interior of an airplane. (Getty Images Bank) Two pastors were fined 1 million won ($723) each for disrupting a domestic flight by loudly preaching to passengers and refusing repeated requests from cabin crew to stop, local media reported Monday. The pastors, 64 and 68, were convicted of violating the Aviation Security Act over an incident aboard a flight from Jeju to Gimpo that departed at around 3:40 p.m. on March 12, according to the Seoul Southern District Court's Aug. 18 ruling. The court said the 64-year-old pastor stood in the aisle despite repeated attempts by crew members to stop him and shouted at passengers, “You will go to hell if you don’t believe in Jesus.” The other pastor joined in, shouting, "Hallelujah, you will go to hell" while walking up and down the aisle. When a crew member approached to issue a warning, the pastors reportedly shouted back, "Don't try to lecture me." The two ignored repeated complaints and objections from crew …

War Against the Ancient Mass Is Destructive for the Church - Cardinal Sarah

When the generation of the ’68ers passes away, the unfounded, one-sided attitudes against Latin and Gregorian chant will pass away as well, Cardinal Robert Sarah told IlGiornale.it on August 27.
Benedict XVI’s liberalization of the Traditional Latin Mass had a positive and even corrective influence on abuses in the celebration of the Novus Ordo, Cardinal Sarah said.
“Many priests testify that discovering the Extraordinary Form helped them to celebrate better.”
Furthermore, the faithful could choose which form corresponded more closely to the fostering of the faith.
“But all of this was brought to an abrupt end by Traditionis Custodes while the Pope Emeritus was still alive.”
Francis’ restrictions on the Latin Mass were “neither a wise nor a respectful choice.”
Cardinal Sarah added that access to “ritual forms that have existed for centuries can never be artificially restricted by decrees.”
Without referring explicitly to the Novus Ordo, Sarah noted that a rite that did not serve the …Vairāk

Kā Leo XIV nostiprina Franciska uzsākto sieviešu iekļaušanu Vatikāna vadībā

Pāvests Francisks pārkāpa Vatikāna tradīciju, ieceļot sievietes amatos, kas praksē jau sen bija rezervēti garīdzniekiem. Leo XIV tagad šo pavērsienu pārvērš par ikdienu.
Nedaudz vairāk nekā gada laikā viņš ir apstiprinājis savas priekšgājēja ieceltās sievietes, paaugstinājis amatā citas un iecēlis daudzas sievietes dažādos amatos visā Vatikānā.
To ir pamanījuši Itālijas plašsaziņas līdzekļi. Tie atkārtoti izmanto rozā krāsu: Vatikāns „kļūst rozā”, bet virsrakstos tiek runāts par „Vaticano in rosa” un „nomine rosa” — „rozā iecelšanas”.
Šeit ir daudzas sievietes, kuras Leo XIV līdz šim ir iecēlis, paaugstinājis amatā vai apstiprinājis.
Raffaella Petrini — Vatikāna pilsētas gubernatore
Francisks neilgi pirms savas nāves iecēla māsu Raffaellu Petrini par Vatikāna Pilsētvalsts gubernatores priekšsēdētāju un par Pāvesta komisijas Vatikāna Pilsētvalsts jautājumos priekšsēdētāju.

SAUDI and its allies led the genocide in Yemen.
Learn some facts, and stop blaming Ansar’Allah! The death toll of the US-UK-Saudi-Emirati war on Yemen is estimated to be at least 377,000 individuals, as of the end of 2021.
-More than two-thirds of these Yemenis killed were likely children.
-These statistics come from the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), which reported in November that the number of deaths by direct and indirect causes in Yemen was projected to surpass 377,000 by the end of 2021.
-President Joe Biden claimed during his presidential campaign that he would end the war. In February 2021, the president announced that the United States would end support for “offensive” Saudi operations in Yemen – although by their very nature, all Saudi operations in Yemen are offensive, because the wealthy monarchy initiated the war by bombing its neighbor, the poorest country in West Asia.

Purity

"Free from all uncleanness, perfect and altogether without spot."
— Denis (Pseudo-Dionysius), On the Divine Names, Chapter 12
"In these words three degrees of cleanness are described which are requisite for sanctity. And the first is the freedom from all uncleanness. Now freedom is the opposite of slavery. But the slave of uncleanness is he who is completely conquered by uncleanness and subject to it. The first grade of purity then is that one should be delivered from the slavery of impurity. Now the second degree is that the purity should be perfect, for the perfect is that to which nothing is lacking. It happens at times that one is not subject to uncleanness, but there is wanting to him something of purity, in so far as he is troubled by passions of uncleanness; and when these are taken away there is perfect purity. The third degree of purity is that one should be altogether without spot. For that is said to be spotted which is not stained by anything intrinsic, but by something …Vairāk

Izraēlas kolonists, kurš uzbruka franču katoļu mūķenei, tika attaisnots

Jeruzalemes pirmās instances tiesa ir attaisnojusi 36 gadus veco Jonu Simchu Šreiberu no kriminālās atbildības par vardarbīgu uzbrukumu franču katoļu mūķenei aprīlī.
Tiesa pieņēma psihiatrisko ekspertīzi, kas liecināja, ka uzbrukuma brīdī viņš bija psihozes stāvoklī. Tiesa nolēma, ka viņš nevarēja ne saprast savu rīcību, ne to kontrolēt.
Viņam tika piespriesta obligāta psihiatriskā hospitalizācija uz laiku līdz sešiem gadiem.
Uzbrukums notika Siona kalnā, netālu no karaļa Dāvida kapenes ārpus Jeruzalemes Vecpilsētas. Drošības kameru ieraksti liecināja, ka Šreibers no aizmugures skrēja pretī 48 gadus vecajai mūķenei un vardarbīgi nogāza viņu zemē, kā rezultātā viņas galva atsitās pret akmens bruģi.
Šraibers sākotnēji aizgāja, bet pēc tam atgriezās un spārdīja mūķeni, kamēr viņa gulēja uz zemes. Viņš uzbruka arī garāmgājējam, kurš mēģināja iejaukties.

Mallorkā mūsdienu deja iekļauta Debesbraukšanas liturģijā

Vēl sliktāk nekā Vācijā: Sant Joan Baptista baznīcā Muro, Maljorkā, Dievmātes Debesbraukšanas svētku svinībās tika iekļauta laikmetīgās dejas un skaņas performance. Tās nosaukums bija „El Vol Màgic” („Burvīgais lidojums”).
Saskaņā ar Maljorkas diecēzes sniegto informāciju, šis darbs bija „radīts īpaši Dievmātes Debesbraukšanas svētku liturģiskajam kontekstam”.
Projektu vadīja mūziķis, un tas tika izstrādāts sadarbībā ar dejotāju un horeogrāfu, ērģelnieku un skaņas speciālistu.
Saskaņā ar diecēzes aprakstu projekts izauga no pētījuma par Mallorkas tradicionālajiem Dievmātes Debesbraukšanas svētku svinēšanas ieradumiem un mēģināja izpētīt saikni starp „skaņu, ķermeni, telpu un rituālu”.

Israeli Settler Who Attacked French Catholic Nun Acquitted

The Jerusalem Magistrate’s Court has acquitted Yona Simcha Schreiber, 36, of criminal responsibility for a violent attack on a French Catholic nun in April.
The court accepted psychiatric evidence that he was psychotic at the time of the assault. He could neither understand the nature of his actions nor control them, the court ruled.
He was ordered to undergo compulsory psychiatric hospitalization for up to six years.
The attack occurred on Mount Zion, near King David’s Tomb outside Jerusalem’s Old City. Security footage showed Schreiber running toward the 48-year-old nun from behind and knocking her violently to the ground, causing her head to strike the stone pavement.
Schreiber initially walked away before returning and kicking the nun while she remained on the ground. He also assaulted a passerby who attempted to intervene.
The victim is a researcher at the Dominican-run École Biblique et Archéologique Française de Jérusalem.
Schreiber is a resident of Peduel, an illegal settlement …Vairāk

Beļģijas jaunā vēstniece pie Svētā Krēsla ir 🌈 aizstāve

27. augustā Beļģijas jaunā vēstniece pie Svētā Krēsla Karolīne Vermeulena iesniedza savas akreditācijas vēstules pāvestam Leona XIV.
Šī Beļģijas diplomāte savas karjeras laikā bieži ir atbalstījusi homoseksuāļu iniciatīvas.
1973. gadā dzimusī Vermeulena ir strādājusi Japānā, Krievijā, Ķīnā un Taivānā, kā arī Eiropas Savienībā. No 2004. līdz 2011. gadam viņa bija Beļģijas karalienes Paolas sekretāre.
Pēdējā laikā viņa bija Beļģijas vēstniece Austrijā, kas papildus bija akreditēta Slovākijā un Slovēnijā, kā arī pastāvīgā pārstāve starptautiskajās organizācijās Vīnē.
Vienā laikā, kad viņa atradās Vīnē, Vermeulena kļuva par organizācijas „International Gender Champions“ locekli – tā ir diplomātu un starptautisko amatpersonu tīkls, kas veltīts dzimumu ideoloģijas veicināšanai.
Savā „International Gender Champions“ profilā Vermeulena norāda: „Dažādība, tostarp attiecībā uz dzimumu, profesionālajā vidē uzlabo komandas darba kvalitāti un rezultātus.”
2023. gadā Vermeulena piedalījās Vīnes …Vairāk
