Vatican Clergy Residence Becomes Four Star Hotel: Leo XIV has approved the conversion of the Domus Internationalis Paulus VI in Rome from a residence for clergy into a four-star hotel. This is confirmed for the first time in the 2025 APSA financial report. Retired cardinals, bishops, former nuncios, and other clergy living in the residence wrote to Leo XIV, asking that the project be halted. But the plan is moving forward and is now in its final stages. The building dates back to the 15th century and became famous in 2013 when, shortly after his election, Pope Francis returned to pay his hotel bill personally. The Vatican expects to receive approximately €5 million per year in rent from the property.
«Con il Santo Padre Francesco era stato deciso che non si poteva certamente fare un hotel a cinque stelle, per motivi di credibilità e d'immagine; alla fine sarà soltanto un quattro stelle». Un'affermazione che aveva provocato non poco imbarazzo...
Cardinal Zuppi Wants "a Mediation" on Euthanasia Legislation. Worse than Germany: Speaking on Luca Zaia's podcast Il Fienile in late July 2026, Cardinal Matteo Zuppi of Bologna, President of the Italian Bishops' Conference, said: "I know well that those who are ill don't wait for the law. There are also regions acting in a fragmented way. Politics should find a mediation. I've met sick people who wanted to leave. In these cases, respect is needed. The only choice you can make is to stay close to those who are suffering, which doesn't mean giving up your principles."
Bishop Strickland : "The warnings Our Lady gave concerning the Church and the world are sobering, and in many ways we can see them unfolding around us. But Our Lady did not leave us only with warnings. She also spoke of hope. She spoke of restoration. "..".. In order to free men from the bondage to these heresies,.." Recently, I had the great blessing of making a pilgrimage to Quito, Ecuador, to pray at the site of Our Lady of Good Success. It was a deeply moving experience, and I have continued to reflect on her messages since returning home. The warnings Our Lady gave concerning the Church and the world are sobering, and in many ways we can see them unfolding around us. But Our Lady did not leave us only with warnings. She also spoke of hope. She spoke of restoration. One part of her prophecy remains especially in my heart. It is her description of those souls through whom God would begin that restoration. Our Lady said: “The small number of souls who, hidden, will preserve the …Àteru
The Spanish Diocese of Cádiz and Ceuta has issued a statement expressing concern over the situation in Ceuta following the mass arrival of young male migrants from Morocco. Its main initiative is to dedicate this weekend's collections in Ceuta's parishes to the Diocesan Migration Office. The funds will be distributed through the San Antonio Migrant Assistance Center to address the most urgent needs in coordination with the relevant civil authorities. Meanwhile, videos circulating on social media reportedly show knife attacks, the looting of private homes and supermarkets, and other crimes committed by some of the illegal migrants.

The Real PRESENCE (Eucharistic Meditations) By Saint Peter Julian Eymard classiccatholicaudiobooks On 13 May 1856, the Paris bishops consented to Eymard's plans for a ‘Society of the Blessed Sacrament’. After many trials, Eymard and de Cuers established public exposition of the Blessed Sacrament in Paris on 6 January 1857 in a run-down building at 114 rue d’Enfer (which literally meant ‘street of hell’).[7] The Congregation of the Blessed Sacrament began working with children in Paris to prepare them to receive their First Communion. It also reached out to non-practicing Catholics, inviting them to repent and begin receiving Communion again. Father Eymard established a common rule for the members of the society and worked toward papal approval.[4] A second community was established in Marseille in 1859, and a third in Angers in 1862. Pius IX granted a Decree of Approbation in June 1863. Eymard was a tireless proponent of frequent Holy Communion, an idea given more authoritative backing …Àteru

The Vatican's restrictions on the Latin Mass "isn't realistic" because young Catholics' growing attraction to the Church's liturgical tradition is "unstoppable", said Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone of San Francisco speaking with Raymond Arroyo on EWTN. “It's what's drawing young people in and will continue to do so." According to Monsignor Cordileone, the popularity of the Mass among younger generations makes Traditionis Custodes difficult to sustain: "To be honest, I don't think it's realistic". And: "We look at the younger generation. They all love the tradition." "They love the more classical way that the Church worships, the traditional Mass," he continued. Archbishop Cordileone challenged recent comments by Cardinal Arthur Roche, prefect of the Dicastery for Divine Worship, who said Leo XIV would not reverse Traditionis Custodes. "I don't know how well he knows the mind of the Holy Father. But I think one thing that's clear to everyone is the Holy Father wants to bring everyone …Àteru

Saint of the Day – June 22, 1965 – Tuesday by Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira Saint Mary Magdalene was the first to see Our Lord resurrected (Giotto, Scrovegni Chapel, Italy) Mary Magdalene has the spirit of Jacob, Judas, that of Esau. The two crossing trajectories cause us to tremble before our own weakness, but we find in Our Lady a safe port. June, 22 is the feast of St. Mary Magdalene the penitent. The Martyrologium states that Our Lord expelled seven demons from her and she also merited being the first to contemplate the resurrected Savior. The famous episode of Mary Magdalene anointing the feet of Our Lord at the banquet has some collateral aspects that provide some insights into her life and soul and her position in the Church. Mary Magdalene was a sister of Lazarus and according to the traditions and documents from the Orient, she was a person of the high society. Lazarus was a very rich man and the prince of a small nation that had been incorporated into the Jewish nation through wars …Àteru

18th Sunday – OT – A - Second Reading Romans 8:35, 37–39 What will separate us from the love of Christ? Will anguish, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or the sword? No, in all these things we conquer overwhelmingly through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor present things, nor future things, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord. denicemay
Brief des Apostels Paulus an die Römer 8,35.37-39. Was kann uns scheiden von der Liebe Christi? Bedrängnis oder Not oder Verfolgung, Hunger oder Kälte, Gefahr oder Schwert? In alldem tragen wir einen glänzenden Sieg davon durch den, der uns geliebt hat. Denn ich bin gewiss: Weder Tod noch Leben, weder Engel noch Mächte, weder Gegenwärtiges noch Zukünftiges noch Gewalten, weder Höhe oder Tiefe noch irgendeine andere Kreatur können uns scheiden von der Liebe Gottes, die in Christus Jesus ist, unserem Herrn.
Visit our Blog: pagina-catolica.blogspot.com Father Gabriel Calvo Zarraute condemns synodality: "Synodality is a neologism invented by Bergoglio to destroy the Catholic Church, to democratize and Protestantize it. Let's call things by their name, my dears, because I'm fed up with being taken for fools! The Church is One, Holy, Catholic, and Roman, not synodal. That's anti-Catholic. What can synodality possibly give us? Well, the Church was already full of foxes, and now it will be even more so. Jesus Christ founded a hierarchical, non-democratic Church. It's not that Catholicism isn't democratic, but rather that it's anti-democratic, because Jesus Christ was condemned to death democratically. All the Greek philosophers were anti-democratic. Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, and so on. Even Cicero (in ancient Rome) was. All the ancient sages, all the great Greco-Roman thinkers, were against what we now understand as modern liberal democracy. So enough of this nonsense, especially when Pope …Àteru
"Now, this error is doubtless most grievous and pernicious: for, granting that the "rich" are the masters of their own property with relation to other men; yet, with regard to God, they are not masters, but only administrators or stewards. This truth can be proved by many arguments. Hear the royal prophet: "The earth is the Lord’s, and the fullness thereof: the world and all they that dwell therein." (Psalm xxiii.) And again: " For all the beasts of the wood are mine: the cattle on the hills, and the oxen. If I should be hungry, I would not tell thee: for the world is mine, and the fullness thereof." (Psalm xlix.)"

THE FIFTH PRECEPT, IN WHICH THE DECEITFUL ERROR OF THE RICH OF THIS WORLD IS EXPOSED. IN addition to what has been already said, I must add the refutation of a certain error very prevalent among the rich of this world, and which greatly hinders them from living well and dying well. The error consists in this: the rich suppose that the wealth they possess is absolutely their own property, if justly acquired; and that therefore they may lawfully spend, give away, or squander their money, and that no one can say to them, "Why do you do so? Why dress so richly? Why feast so sumptuously? Why so prodigal in supporting your dogs and hawks? Why do you spend so much money in gaming, or other such-like pleasures?"
