Amid growing controversy over the future of the Valley of the Fallen, Spain’s Minister of the Presidency, Félix Bolaños, has defended Cardinal José Cobo of Madrid. Bolaños told LaSexta.com that the plan to secularise the religious site was not the cardinal's initiative, but the result of an agreement reached directly with the Vatican. He emphasised that no personal deal had been made with Cobo, who has faced significant pressure from Catholics over the issue. The minister also said that the Vatican is fully committed to transforming the Valley from a monastery into a site of "democratic memory". Addressing divisions within the Catholic Church, Bolaños described it as a 'plural organisation', while criticising more traditional sectors that oppose the transformation and suggesting that they are out of step with 'contemporary society'. He also placed the “re-signification” of the Valley within a broader set of negotiations between the Spanish government and the Church, covering issues …அதிகமாக
"I feel so sorry for you," said the unlit candle to her flickering friend. "Your time is so short. You’re constantly burning away, and soon, you’ll be gone forever. I’m much happier than you. I don’t burn, so I don’t melt. I just lie here in peace, and I’ll last for years. But your days are numbered." The burning candle replied: "I don’t regret a single moment. My life is beautiful and full of meaning. Yes, I burn, and my wax is melting away, but my flame has lit countless other candles, and my own light is never diminished by sharing it. With my light, I drive back the darkness of the night. I bring a sparkle to a child’s eyes at a celebration. I purify the air by a sick person’s bedside, for shadows and despair cannot stand the presence of a living flame. I stand as a symbol of hope and a silent prayer. Isn't a life like that—even a short one—truly beautiful? Actually, it’s you I feel sorry for, my unlit sister. Your fate is the one that's truly sad. You’ve never fulfilled the …அதிகமாக
Several anonymous cardinals and curial officials told the Substack.com account The Pillar on April 17 that they do not expect any resolution to the question of the Mass in the Roman rite in the near future. Some Catholics had hoped the next extraordinary consistory of cardinals on June 26–27 would address the liturgical issue. Instead, Leo XIV chose to focus on Francis' document Evangelii Gaudium. One Vatican official said that Leo XIV was not very familiar with traditional communities or even the traditional liturgy, and that his primary concern was not liturgy but whether members of those communities accept the Second Vatican Council. As early as June 2025, the best friend of Leo XIV, Alejandro Moral, Prior General of the Augustinians, had already ruled out any return of the older form of the Mass under his pontificate. #newsVdgrmnvwkv
The late great ALAIN DELON’s parents divorced when he was 4yrs old and put him up for adoption - so his answer when asked — “if God exists what would you ask him after your death?” — hits me hard every time.
In June, the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X will announce the names of the future bishops to be consecrated on 1 July in Ecône, Switzerland. Father Kevin M. Cusick published this rumour on the Rorate-Caeli blog, referring to an anonymous 'reliable source' who claimed that both Don Davide Pagliarani, the Fraternity's Superior General, and Father John Fullerton, the Fraternity's Superior for the US, had confirmed the information.

Authored by Andrew Korybko, Orban’s “democraticouster” is expected to remove Hungary’s procedural opposition to the EU’s planned €90 billion loan to Ukraine that’ll be financed by members raising common debt. RT published a detailed article about this plan here last December, which was a compromise for financing this loan after the bloc failed to reach a consensus to either outright confiscate some of Russia’s frozen assets for giving to Ukraine or use at least some of them as collateral for a loan to it. Readers can learn more here and here. If everything goes according to plan, and Bloomberg reported that the bloc plans to move swiftly after Hungary held everything up for several months already, then this move risks funding a forever war. Hopes of a military breakthrough along the front or a diplomatic breakthrough in US-mediated talks have yet to materialize, so the pace of Russia’s on-the-ground advance remains glacial, thus meaning that it could take years to achieve …
Cardinal Pizzaballa and the Assembly of Catholic Ordinaries of the Holy Land have issued a statement expressing profound indignation and unreserved condemnation of the desecration of a statue of Jesus Christ by an Israeli soldier in a Lebanese village, calling it a grave affront to the Christian faith — and linking it to a broader pattern of IDF desecration of Christian symbols in southern Lebanon.
L’Assemblea degli Ordinari Cattolici di Terra Santa ha diffuso un comunicato durissimo dopo la profanazione di un’immagine di Gesù crocifisso in un villaggio del Libano. Il testo parla di un’offesa grave alla fede cristiana e denuncia anche altri episodi contro simboli cristiani nel sud del Paese. I vescovi chiedono misure disciplinari immediate, un’accertata assunzione di responsabilità e garanzie chiare perché fatti simili non si ripetano. La Chiesa di Terra Santa rinnova il suo appello: fermare una guerra che lacera la regione da troppo tempo e scegliere una strada fatta di dialogo, responsabilità, rispetto del sacro e di ogni vita umana. da pagina facebook di SilereNonPossum
Spanish Serial Killer Moved to Women’s Prison After "Gender Transition": Spanish serial killer Joan Vila Dilmé, known as the “Angel of Death,” has been transferred to a women’s prison after identifying as a "woman" under the name “Aida.” Vila, now 60, was sentenced in 2014 to 127 years in prison for the murder of 11 patients at a care home in Olot between 2009 and 2010. The killings involved lethal overdoses of insulin or psychotropic drugs, while some victims were forced to ingest corrosive substances. Most victims were elderly and vulnerable residents under his care. Vila has been serving his sentence at Puig de les Basses prison since 2010.
El celador de Olot, Joan Vila Dilmé, comenzó hace más de un año su proceso de transición a mujer en el interior de la prisión de Puig de les Basses (Figueres), donde cumple una pena de 127 años por asesinar a 11 ancianos a los que cuidaba en la residencia La Caritat de Olot. Vila Dilmé ha elegido el nombre de Aura, y desde hace meses ha comunicado ya a su entorno en prisión su nuevo género. Desde hace un tiempo, Aura está ya en el módulo de mujeres de la prisión de Figueres, según fuentes penitenciarias. Su cambio no supone ningún tipo de beneficio respecto a la pena que cumple, sin ningún tipo de permisos concedidos desde su ingreso en 2010. La decisión de Vila Dilmé se gestó hace meses, con el acompañamiento de los psicólogos del centro, y entidades feministas. Pero ya durante la investigación y el juicio de los crímenes cometidos por Vila Dilmé en la residencia en la que trabajaba, expresó que era una mujer encerrada en el cuerpo de un hombre. Incluso presentó un informe …
He needed a one-day sentence before his execution. But oh, heavens, "Pope" Francis says that we all have infinite dignity and executing a monster is so wrong.

Joe Tippens @JoeTippen Don’t tell Pfizer. Stage 4 Cancer... GONE in 3 Months — Naturally! A 73-year-old woman was told there was no cure. Stage 4. “Nothing we can do,” doctors said.But just 90 days later… her scans showed NO disease detected. What changed? Her son went down the research rabbit hole on X and found my posts on IP6 (Inositol Hexaphosphate), juicing, Mesima mushrooms, and Ivermectin. Here’s what she did : • IP6: 2 scoops, twice a day on an empty stomach • 24 oz carrot juice daily (+ some other juices) • A bit of Mesima mushroom & Olive leaf • 3 immunotherapy sessions (docs said it wouldn’t cure her) • Ivermectin: added as support — we’re seeing more and more remarkable responses when it’s included No chemo. No radiation. No Fenben. And guess what? The cancer disappeared. This isn’t a one-off story. I’ve been receiving multiple reports of stunning cancer reversals using these exact protocols — especially IP6, juicing, and Ivermectin. There are also published studies …அதிகமாக
On 17 March (St Patrick’s Day), a liturgical dance was performed during the Eucharist at Clonard Monastery in Belfast, Northern Ireland. Girls from a local dance school processed the offertory gifts to the altar and sprang around it.
To commemorate St. Patrick's Day, the Church of Clonard Monastery in Belfast invited eight dancers to prepare the altar for Mass (March 2026)
Saint Patrick's Day is right in the middle of Lent. Eating the meat wasn't bad enough; Lent is a 40-day season of repentance, reflection, and preparation. It acts as a "spiritual reset" focused on turning away from sin (repentance) and toward God, primarily through prayer, fasting, and charity in preparation for Easter. It involves self-examination and turning to God, starting on Ash Wednesday
Catholic World News April 20, 2026 The typical member of the priestly ordination class of 2026 is a 33-year-old cradle Catholic, according to a newly released survey of 334 of the 428 men slated to be ordained to the priesthood in the United States this year. The survey was conducted for the Secretariat of Clergy, Consecrated Life and Vocations of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) by the Center for Applied Research in the Apostolate and posted on the USCCB’s website. The typical ordinand regularly took part in Eucharistic adoration and prayed the Rosary before entering seminary, according to the survey. 81% of the men were preparing for the diocesan priesthood. 35% of the men attended seminaries in the Midwest, 28% in the Northeast, 19% in the South, 14% in the West, and 5% abroad. 26% of the ordinands are foreign born, with the most typical foreign countries of birth being Vietnam (5%), Mexico (3%), and Colombia (2%). On average, these foreign-born seminarians …
On Sunday, Cardinal Konrad Krajewski of Łódź, Poland, met with the faithful of the Roman rite at the Chapel of All Saints in Łódź outside of the liturgy. Cardinal Krajewski said he was happy that Catholics could attend Mass in the Roman rite at three locations within the Archdiocese of Łódź. He added that ten priests have been assigned to this pastoral ministry of the Latin Mass under Rev. Paweł Markowski's responsibility. Cardinal Krajewski served as Papal Almoner from 2013 to 2026. On 12 March 2026, Pope Leo XIV appointed him Archbishop of Łódź. The cardinal was renowned for his activism on behalf of transvestite prostitutes, having organised several lunches for the 'poor' with Pope Francis to which he invited dozens of transvestites. #newsZfmceyuwqp
The church Saint-Nicaise de Rouen in Rouen, France, will become a brasserie-restaurant with an additional museum space. The site dates back to the 7th century, when a chapel was built for the relics of Saint Nicaise. The current building was reconstructed in reinforced concrete after a fire in 1934 and reopened for worship in 1940. Due to structural deterioration, water infiltration, and lack of maintenance, the church was closed in 2006 and officially deconsecrated in 2017. The new project includes a restaurant, on-site beer production, and preservation of some architectural elements. The church’s large organ, completed in 1957 and one of the most important in Rouen, has been removed and will be relocated to another church in Paris for restoration. Local authorities cited high restoration costs as the main reason for the conversion. #newsRxmfreixrh
A new chapel of the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X was blessed on Palm Sunday, March 29, 2026, in Tarnów. Poland, by Fr. Hubert Kuszpa. Continued growth of the faithful led to a second Sunday Mass and ultimately the need for a larger place of worship.
FSSPX pozostaje w jedności (una cum) z antychrystami posoborowia i łączy z nimi odprawiane Msze, abstrahując od tego, że odprawiają je również u nich heretycy moderniści, przyjęci jak na kartę rowerową, bez święceń „sub conditione". Logicznie, krótko i na temat: „Kto modli się z heretykiem, staje się heretykiem" - Papież Agaton. Zatem ci, którzy myślą, że uciekli od heretyckiego posoborowia do FSSPX, niech wiedzą, że nigdzie nie uciekli... --- Niech raczej to co nazywa siebie „Tradycją" - wreszcie Nią się stanie. Bez odcięcia się od heretyków, nie może być mowy o Katolickiej Tradycji.
