Don Dino Rampazzo vietti 1. toukokuuta eukaristian Bar Grumon ulkopuolella Valdagnossa, Vicenzan hiippakunnassa Italiassa. Tapahtuma oli osa "kiertävien eukaristioiden" sarjaa, joita pidetään kirkkojen sijaan paikallisissa lähiöissä. Yli 80 ihmistä osallistui jumalanpalvelukseen, joka päättyi baarin tarjoamiin juomiin. Don Rampazzo sanoi, että aloitteen tarkoituksena oli tavoittaa ihmisiä perinteisten kirkkojen ulkopuolella, ja vastasi kritiikkiin sanomalla: "Jumala on siellä, missä ihmiset ovat."
IN PROVINCIA DI VICENZA, IL PRETE DON DINO RAMPAZZO HA CELEBRATO UNA MESSA AL BAR – UN’INIZIATIVA NATA PER COINVOLGERE I GIOVANI, CHE È STATA BEN ACCOLTA DALLA COMUNITÀ, VISTO CHE OLTRE 80 PERSONE HANNO PARTECIPATO: “NON È MANCATA QUALCHE CRITICA, MA DIO NON È DOVE CI SONO LE PERSONE?” – IL SACERDOTE, EX CARABINIERE, È FAMOSO PER LE INIZIATIVE ORIGINALI: HA ANCHE STAMPATO DEI “BUONI CONFESSIONE” PER CHI BESTEMMIA.

A advertisement for a French perfume brand appeared on the LED screens covering the façade and apse of Rome’s Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore. This prompted a group of residents and worshippers from the Monti district to send a protest letter to the Archpriest Rolandas Makrickas, criticising what they described as the “commercialisation” of the historic basilica. The screens were installed during restoration works that began in late 2024. Back then, Vatican officials said the advertising revenue helps cover renovation costs ahead of the Jubilee.
La pubblicità di un noto profumo francese sulla facciata della basilica patriarcale di Santa Maria Maggiore è stata la goccia che ha fatto di nuovo traboccare il vaso facendo insorgere un gruppo di fedeli del quartiere Monti che, alquanto sbigotti, hanno inviato una lettera di protesta al cardinale arciprete Rolandas Mackrikas. «In quanto membri del Comitato cittadino del Rione Monti e residenti del Rione, vi scriviamo per esprimervi il nostro profondo sgomento per i due enormi cartelloni pubblicitari luminosi sulla facciata e sull’abside della veneranda Basilica». Il gruppo di fedeli si chiede se sia necessario ricorrere a pubblicità tanto appariscenti che nulla hanno a che fare con l'atmosfera e il luogo sacro. Dal volto di Sinner che fa da testimonial ad una marca di caffè, piuttosto che all'ultimo modello di uno smartphone, fino a un profumo. Il tema che viene sollevato è la evidente “mercificazione” di Santa Maria Maggiore...

It took Russia to bring help to them. France came, looked around and left. They asked Russia for help and President Putin not only sent them weapons and aid but men to teach them how to defend themselves. Where was the rest of the world? Looking the other way and laughing at them. That's a fact that those in Africa still talk about today! And why many countries raise Russian flags on stores and homes and roadways. Not just one African nation but many. Ask Russia for help and she will be there, no matter who you are. facts speak for themselves!

Bambergin arkkihiippakunnan pastori Gerd Neumeier on perustellut 18. huhtikuuta pitämäänsä "Tähtien sota" -jumalanpalvelusta puhumalla Katholisch.de-sivustolle 3. toukokuuta. Neumeier korosti, että kyseessä ei ollut eukaristia vaan sanan liturgia. Kirkon liturgia on "monimuotoinen", hän sanoi: "Kun ihmiset kuulevat sanan 'jumalanpalvelus', useimmat yhdistävät sen samaan messuun yhä uudelleen ja uudelleen, erityisesti papin yhteydessä." Tilaisuus alkoi Darth Vaderin ja jediritarin välisellä valosapelien kaksintaistelulla. Sitä seurasivat Kyrie, ensimmäinen lukukerta, psalmi 27, Halleluja ja evankeliumin kertomus Jeesuksen kiusauksista. Neumeierin mukaan Tähtien sota hyvään ja pahaan, valoon ja pimeyteen liittyvine teemoineen on täydellinen silta Jumalan kohtaamiseen. Neumeier ilmoitti, että formaatti toistettaisiin: "Koska ensimmäinen sai niin hyvän vastaanoton, uskomme, että olemme menossa hyvään ja kestävään suuntaan." Tähtien sota -jumalanpalvelus on osa Bambergin arkkihiippakunnan …Lisää
Synodin raportti on kumouksellinen yritys kumota katolinen moraali: Vatikaanin synodin valmisteluryhmän nro 9 raportti on "kauhistuttava", ja sitä kutsutaan "kumoukselliseksi yritykseksi kumota katolinen moraali homoseksuaalisuutta koskevassa kysymyksessä", sanoi pastori Gerald Murray EWTN:lle. Hän varoitti, että "synodin toimisto on nyt vain yksi kyseisen painostusryhmän PR-osasto", ennen kuin hän lisäsi: "He pyrkivät normalisoimaan homoseksuaalisuuden kirkon elämässä." Pastori Murray sanoi myös seuraavaa: "Jos Jumala teki sinusta homoseksuaalin, miten hän voisi estää sinua käyttämästä homoseksuaalisuuttasi harjoittamalla homoseksuaalisia tekoja eli sodomiaa?"
Fr. Gerald E. Murray on EWTN: "And the document, the report of study group number nine is horrific. I'll say that quite clearly. I've read that document. I find it to be a subversive attempt to overthrow Catholic morality on the question of homosexuality. And this is a really, really crucial moment for the church because. The program of subversion in plain sight of Catholic teaching on the immoral nature of homosexual activity and the disordered nature of the homosexual inclination, this is a number one target for some people in the church. And sad to say, the Synod office is now just another public relations arm of that pressure group."
Allow me to clarify: in nearly twenty years of working for the Church—at the parish and diocesan levels and in an apostolate that has international reach—I have never seen a parish (or diocesan) pastoral plan produce the wide-spread transformative fruit its authors hoped for.
Espanjan luostareissa ja hengellisissä keskuksissa järjestetään yhä useammin joogakongresseja ja New Age -henkisiä tapahtumia. Viimeisin kiista syntyi Javierin linnassa Navarrassa - Pyhän Fransiskus Xavierin synnyinpaikassa ja jesuiittojen johtamassa hengellisessä keskuksessa. Siellä järjestettiin Espanjan joogaliiton (FEYS) järjestämä XII Iberian joogakongressi 1.-3. toukokuuta. Noin 250 osallistujaa osallistui työpajoihin, joissa esiteltiin mantrakonsertteja, itämaista henkisyyttä, meditaatiota ja joogaharjoituksia. Kuvissa osallistujat meditoivat Buddhan ja Krishnan hahmojen rinnalle asetetun Jeesuksen Kristuksen edessä. Toimintoihin kuului tiettävästi istuntoja, joiden otsikot olivat "Sielun herääminen", "Essenin mantrat" ja "108 aurinkotervehdystä". InfoVaticanan mukaan vastaavia kokoontumisia on järjestetty myös katolisissa kiinteistöissä, kuten Las Avellanasin maristiluostarissa, Aránzazun fransiskaanien pyhäkössä ja Ávilassa sijaitsevassa teresialais-sanjuanistien kansainvälisessä …Lisää

Leo Affirms Francis’ Blessing Of Gay Couples Saint Catherine of Siena: In wicked ministers, the sin against nature (homosexuality) reigns. This sin is repulsive even to demons. "(...) those unhappy men do not only check such tendency, but that they do something much worse and they fall in the vice against the nature. They are blind and stupid, whose confused intelligence does not perceive the vileness in which they live. I displease this last sin, because I am the Eternal Purity. It is to Me so abominable that by its cause I made disappear five cities. (cf. Genesis 19, 24). My Justice is not able to support it more. That sin, nevertheless, does not only dislike to Me. It is even unbearable to the demons, who are had by patterns by those unfortunate ministers. The demons do not tolerate that sin. They do not wish the virtue, but by his angelical origin, they challenge to see so stinking vice. They throw the poisoned arrows of lust, but they turn round at the moment at which the sin is …Lisää

Saint Ignatius of Laconi - May 11 Also known as Ignacy z Làconi Ignazio da Laconi Vincenzo Peis Memorial 11 May Profile Son of a poorfarmer with sevenchildren, Ignatius grew up in hard rural poverty, working the fields. At age 17, he became very ill, and promised to become a Franciscan if he was spared. When he was cured, his father convinced him to wait. At age 20 Ignatius was almost killed when he lost control of his horse; suddenly the horse stopped, and trotted on quietly. Ignatius was convinced God had saved his life again, and he decided to follow his religious vocation at once. He joined the Capuchinmonastery of Saint Benedict at Buoncammino, Italy as a lay brother, taking his vows in 1722. Worked fifteen years in his house’s weaving shed, then spent forty years as part of a team who went house to house asking food and donations for the friars. People soon realized they received a gift in return from Brother Ignatius as he consoled the sick and the lonely …Lisää
Saint Ignatius Laconi - May 11 catholictv. St. Ignatius of Laconi was a Capuchin Friar. He was born in 1701 and died in 1781. He was canonized 1951 by Pius XII. Born the second of seven children in a poor farming family, Francis Ignatius Vincent Peis was so named because his safe delivery through a difficult pregnancy was achieved through the intercession of St. Francis of Assisi. His mother promised the saint that she would name her unborn baby Francis and that he would join the Capuchins as an adult. Since his early childhood, Francis demonstrated a capacity for hard work in the fields and a strong piety. He would often be seen in prayer and was known to wait at the church doors every morning in prayer until they were opened. He wanted to join the Capuchins as a teenager, but his father would not allow him to because the family depended on his labour to survive. However, on surviving a riding accident through God’s intervention at the age of 20, he decided to enter the Capuchin …Lisää

Monasteries and spiritual centers in Spain are increasingly hosting yoga congresses and New Age-inspired events. The latest controversy emerged at the Castle of Javier in Navarra - the birthplace of St. Francis Xavier and a Jesuit-run spiritual center. It hosted the XII Iberian Yoga Congress organized by the Spanish Yoga Federation (FEYS) from May 1–3. Around 250 participants attended workshops featuring mantra concerts, Eastern spirituality, meditation, and yoga practices. Images show participants meditating before Jesus Christ placed alongside figures of Buddha and Krishna. Activities reportedly included sessions titled “Awakening of the Soul,” “Essene Mantras,” and “108 Sun Salutations.” According to InfoVaticana, similar gatherings have also been held at Catholic properties such as the Marist monastery of Las Avellanas, the Franciscan sanctuary of Aránzazu, and the Teresian-Sanjuanist International Center in Ávila. At the same time, Spain continues to experience a sharp decline …Lisää
TOKYO — The Philippines’ shock inflation spike in April is a serious warning sign — an economic canary in the coal mine that shouldn’t be ignored. The 7.2% year-on-year jump is roughly double the first-quarter 3.4% growth rate. Clearly, the Philippines falling into the stagflation zone wasn’t on President Ferdinand Marcos Jr’s 2026 Bingo card. The predicament is more than just an abrupt wakeup call for officials in Manila. It’s a distress signal to developing Asia. The Philippines, it’s safe to say, is Asia’s first Iran war inflationary domino to fall. It’s the vanguard of economic trauma to come — trauma that will only get worse the longer the Strait of Hormuz remains closed. What worries economists most is how widespread the price increases are proving to be. From food to transportation to utilities, the scale and breadth of increases mean Philippine inflation is likely to top 8% in the second quarter. That makes it a virtual lock that the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP), the …
Pastor Gerd Neumeier Bambergi peapiiskopkonnast on 3. mail Katholisch.de-ga rääkides põhjendanud oma 18. aprillil toimunud "Tähesõdade" jumalateenistust. Neumeier rõhutas, et tegemist ei olnud euharistia, vaid sõna liturgiaga. Kiriku liturgia on "mitmekesine", ütles ta: "Kui inimesed kuulevad sõna "jumalateenistus", seostavad enamik seda ikka ja jälle sama missaga, eriti seoses preestriga." Üritus algas valgusmõõkade duelliga Darth Vaderi ja jedirüütli vahel. Sellele järgnesid Kyrie, esimene lugemine, psalm 27, halleluuja ja evangeeliumi aruanne Jeesuse kiusatustest. Neumeieri sõnul on Star Wars oma hea ja kurja, valguse ja pimeduse teemadega ideaalne sild kohtumisele Jumalaga. Neumeier teatas, et formaat kordub: "Kuna esimene võeti nii hästi vastu, usume, et liigume heas ja jätkusuutlikus suunas." Tähesõdade jumalateenistus on osa Bambergi peapiiskopkonna noorsooameti projektist "Broneeritavad kiriklikud jumalateenistused". Kogudused, pastoraalid ja institutsioonid saavad tellida …Lisää
