St. John of the Cross ~~~ (Some men live) with the world and are eager about their ambitions and their prelacies. They may be said not to know Christ...
Today, Leo XIV received Cardinal Dominique Mathieu of Tehran in audience. No official details were released about the topics discussed. The Cardinal recently arrived in Rome after leaving Iran during the evacuation of diplomatic personnel from Tehran. The meeting likely gave the Pope a first-hand update on the situation in Iran and the small Catholic community there.
Questa mattina il Santo Padre Leone XIV ha ricevuto in udienza il Cardinale Dominique Joseph Mathieu, O.F.M. Conv., Arcivescovo di Teheran-Ispahan dei Latini, in Iran. Il porporato è stato costretto a lasciare il Paese dopo la chiusura dell’ambasciata italiana, imposta dal governo italiano. Poiché la sede dell’arcidiocesi si trova all’interno del territorio dell’ambasciata, anche lui ha dovuto abbandonare la propria terra. Papa Leone XIV lo ha voluto ricevere immediatamente questa mattina per ascoltare da lui un resoconto diretto e autentico di quanto sta accadendo, lontano dagli schieramenti politici e dalle narrazioni trionfalistiche della guerra. Il presule ha potuto riferire al Pontefice lo strazio e la sofferenza della povera gente, e in particolare della piccola comunità cattolica. da pagina facebook di SilereNonPossum
The Assembly of Catholic Ordinaries of the Holy Land suspended its planned plenary meeting in Nazareth due to security concerns, holding discussions online instead. In a statement issued 10 March, the bishops said Christian communities affected by war have largely refused to respond with violence. They also mourned Maronite priest Fr. Pierre el-Rai, killed on 9 March in southern Lebanon when Israeli tank fire struck a house in the village of Al-Qlayaa, injuring four others.
Gli ordinari delle Chiese cattoliche di Terra Santa hanno diffuso un comunicato: riunione plenaria sospesa per ragioni di sicurezza, comunità cristiane colpite dalla guerra ma determinate a non rispondere con violenza. Nel testo anche il saluto al nunzio Adolfo Tito Yllana e il ricordo del sacerdote maronita Pierre el Rai, ucciso in Libano durante un bombardamento. da pagina facebook di SilereNonPossum
Kim Dotcom @KimDotcom Trump needs to resign or be ousted for there to be peace. The markets are holding only with liquidity that the US Govt provides to Investment Banks, interest free. It’s all a manipulated scam. It’s like holding a river with your bare hands. It’s impossible. When the markets crash they will do it big time. The markets will come crashing down like an avalanche. Everyone will sell everything they have. There is a reason why smart investors like Warren Buffet hold so much cash instead of stocks. A massive correction is long overdue. It just didn’t happen yet because Trump is manipulating the markets. It should have happened during Covid but Trump flooded the markets with cash. Increasing the US debt level even further. It’s all a giant Ponzi scheme because the US markets are all that Trump has. Pam Bondi excused her cover up of the Epstein files by saying “The Dow is at 50,000.” The big US market crash is inevitable. I think we will see the biggest depression in …More
Sen. John Kennedy, R-La., about the bombing of the girls' school in Iran. "It was terrible. We made a mistake," he said. "Other countries do that sort of thing intentionally, like Russia. We would never do that intentionally. I think the department is investigating it now, and I'm sorry. I'm just so sorry it happened. It was a mistake."
He meant to say Ukraine does that intentionally. Just like they did again the other day. Killing a 6 year old child. And before that I think it was 40 people. They hit apartment buildings, hospitals, schools and shopping centers. They are all losing and can't take it after they started a mess. And they always go after the children and innocent people as they are doing in Iran after they did it in Palestine.

She had a pen, a platform, and a certainty that America needed something it didn't yet know how to ask for. Her name was Sarah Josepha Hale, and for nearly four decades she fought — politely, persistently, and with extraordinary patience — for a single national day of Thanksgiving. She was born in 1788 in Newport, New Hampshire, in a country that was itself still new and uncertain about what kind of nation it wanted to become. She grew up to become one of the most quietly influential women in 19th century America — not through political office, which was closed to her, and not through wealth, but through words. For 40 years, from 1837 to 1877, Hale served as editor of Godey's Lady's Book — the most widely read magazine in antebellum America, with a circulation that reached 150,000 subscribers at its peak. Through its pages she shaped American taste in fashion, architecture, literature, and domestic life. She used that platform carefully and deliberately. But the cause closest to her …More
Nicholas Cavazos has left Pelican+. He says he remains friends with other co-founders. It Cavazos said he had differing opinions on content.is still unclear who "the troublemaker" is. There appear to be financial issues.
It’s troubling that Catholic parishes are compelled to keep beautiful Masses out of public view due to directives from Cardinal Roche, while churches in Germany can openly promote what many see as liberal Protestant-style services.
TLM take note! The directive was that TLM could not be advertised. This shows how to not advertise and still provide information for the suppressed activity.
The maintaining of the glyphosate industry by the administration is about keeping the supply of white phosphorous chemical weapons being used by the IDF in southern Lebanon
Ok, it is a funny meme, but if you don't think the US government is following a long established plan then you are ignorant. It is all a PSYOP and everyone needs to understand what is at stake for the faithful Catholics!
"Make the effort to raise up, or rather, to enclose your mind within the words of your prayer; and if, like a child, it gets tired and falters, raise it up again. The mind, after all is naturally unstable, but He who orders all things can control it. If you acquire this practice and restrain it, He who sets the boundary to the sea of your mind will come to you during prayer and say; thus far you have come and no further." Saint John Climacos, Ladder of Divine Ascent
St. John Climacus ~~~ Just as the clouds hide the Sun, so wicked thoughts darken and destroy the mind...
A Voice Crying in the Wilderness “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” — Matthew 3:2 The world hates this voice. It hated it when John the Baptist cried out in the wilderness. It hates it now. For this voice does not flatter. It exposes lies. And our age is built upon three great errors -error that oppose Gospel Poverty , Chastity and Obedience that are destroying Holy Matrimony The First Error: “What I Have Is Mine” Men today say: This is my wealth. My house. My property. My right. But God says otherwise. “The earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof.” — Psalm 24:1 Everything belongs to God. You own nothing absolutely. You are a steward, not a master. The first Christians understood this: “Neither did anyone say that any of the things he possessed was his own.” — Acts 4:32 Listen to the Fathers of the Church. St. Basil the Great thunders: “The bread you keep belongs to the hungry.” St. Ambrose says: “Nature produced all things for all. Greed made them private.” …More
