EWTN’s Great Leap Forward to EwtnNews

US broadcaster EWTN, a Catholic pre-internet media, has announced the rebranding of its online news operations. CatholicNewsAgency.com, its international affiliates and the Catholic Register newspaper will in future operate under a single global identity: EWTN News.
The unification of journalistic endeavours was detailed in a press release on 15 January.
The new umbrella platform EwtnNews.com has been built using the Sanity.io content management system.
It is currently available in English and will soon be expanded to include Spanish, followed by five additional languages. Traffic from CatholicNewsAgency.com will gradually be redirected to the new site, with the full transition scheduled for 24 January.

International law to date has been merely a useful cover for the lawlessness practiced in international relations, mainly by the USA and the empire’s brother country occupying Palestine – Israel. Finally, a politician has emerged who openly proclaims that he does not care about international law and that he and he alone will decide on American interventions in order to strengthen world peace through war.

Systematic Psychological Abuse within Benedictine Sisters of Montmartre

An independent investigation has documented decades of spiritual abuse, psychological control, and systemic governance failures within the Benedictine Sisters of the Sacred Heart of Montmartre. The contemplative community is based at the Sacré-Cœur of Paris, France.
Background and timeline
The congregation, founded in the late 19th century in connection with the national vow and devotion to the Sacred Heart, is dedicated to liturgical prayer, perpetual adoration, and the reception of pilgrims at the Sacré-Cœur Basilica.
In June 2021, the congregation initiated an internal review.
In 2022, former members were formally included in the process.
In February 2023, the sisters publicly acknowledged serious internal abuses, issued an apology, and requested an external investigation.
The independent report, completed after 18 months of work, was published in January 2026.
Scope of the investigation
The commission conducted 159 interviews with current sisters, former members, priests, bishops …Bontsi

These “independent commissions” do not understand the meaning of suffering, sacrifice, and self-denial, and call all of this “abuse of power.” It is entirely in line with the post-conciliar church, which is trying to eliminate the cross from Christ's message.

Bp Strickland : "In every age, the Church is tempted to secure peace by softening what she teaches. And ... God raises up witnesses who refuse that bargain – not loudly, not theatrically, but steadfastly.

(Feast of St. Marcellus I, Pope and Martyr – January 16)
Brothers and Sisters,
There is a kind of suffering that comes from the world, and we expect it. The world has always resisted the light. But there is another kind of suffering – sharper, quieter, and harder to bear – when the wound comes from within, when rejection comes not from strangers, but from one’s own.
Holy Scripture says of Our Lord: “He came unto his own, and his own received him not” (John 1:11).
And on this day, January 16, the traditional calendar places before us a Pope – St. Marcellus I – whose witness is marked by that same sorrowful pattern: not merely opposed by the enemies of the Church, but resisted amid turmoil and rebellion within the household of faith.
So the title today is simple. And heavy. Exiled by his own.
Pause for a moment and let that phrase do its work. Because it is not only history. It is a pattern. It is a temptation. It is a warning. And it is also – mysteriously – a path that God has …Bontsi

Cardinal Marx Ignored "Great Concern" of Benedict XVI Over German Synod

An unprecedented episode involving Cardinal Reinhard Marx of Munich occurred in 2021. It was published by Nico Spuntoni in IlGiornale.it on January 17.
Benedict XVI contacted his successor as Archbishop of Munich to express his “great concern” about the synodal process in Germany. He was convinced that this Synodal Path would cause harm and would end badly if it were not stopped.
Cardinal Marx ignored the appeal of Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI.
Additional information concerning the German Synod
On January 17, Pope Leo XIV received Archbishop Nikola Eterović, the Apostolic Nuncio to Berlin, to discuss the German bishops’ statute for a proposed Synodal Council. This body would start in 2026, be permanent and would grant lay members decision-making power.
Furthermore, Spuntoni reveals that Cardinal Marx called during the January 7–8 consistory for the introduction of female deacons. He is the principal architect of the German synodal process.

I asked AI Perplexity for the source of problems with jpg files and editor problems. Here is the answer:

Gloria.TV, a Catholic video-sharing platform, shows no widespread reports of JPEG display issues or editor malfunctions as of January 2026. Common causes for such problems often stem from client-side factors like file format incompatibilities, such as using .jpeg instead of .jpg extensions or progressive JPEG compression not fully supported by the site. No official announcements from site owners or admins address these specific issues recently.

Possible Causes
File naming or type mismatch: Sites like Gloria.TV may only process standard .jpg files; renaming .jpeg to .jpg resolves display problems in similar cases.

Browser or cache problems: Outdated browsers, corrupted cache, or extensions can prevent images and editors from loading properly.

Local device issues: High-resolution files, corruption, or OS-specific photo app glitches (e.g., Windows Photos) block JPEG rendering.

Troubleshooting Steps
Rename files to .jpg and ensure baseline (not progressive) JPEG compression before …

I just uploaded two image files -- same exact image file but with different extensions: .jpg and .jpeg -- and both disappeared. One partially displayed after a few moments, then disappeared when I clicked it.
1) It might be due to the review process that scans uploaded images for objectionable content before posting.
2) It opens a blank image container if clicked, so I inspected the html code behind the page and the uploaded images are being linked to a storage directory. It shows the right dimensions of the uploaded image (width="357" height="500"), even with the blank container. Maybe another clue - perhaps the directory is corrupted:

YET ANOTHER CLUE:
When right clicking the image and telling it to open the image in a new tab, the following error is displayed. It does point to a directory problem with the images:

Ave Crux

Gregory DiPippo argues that Vatican II’s liturgy constitution Sacrosanctum Concilium was effectively nullified not by neglect but by its early misapplication. He identifies the 1964 decree Inter Oecumenici—especially its promotion of Mass versus populum—as introducing changes never envisioned by the constitution itself. DiPippo contends that subsequent “conciliar reforms,” exemplified by recent experimental reordering of Mantua Cathedral, falsely claim fidelity to the Council while betraying its intent. He concludes that decades of such reinterpretations make it impossible to recover what the Council actually taught, and calls on Church leaders to acknowledge this failure.

What Killed Sacrosanctum Concilium

There have been many laws, decrees, constitutions and such in the Church’s long history which, without ever being formally revoked, simply faded into disuse and obscurity. Very often, it is impossible to say when such laws became dead letters. But in the case of Sacrosanctum Concilium, the Second Vatican Council’s constitution on the liturgy, we know the exact day on which it became a dead letter. That day was September 26, 1964, when the Sacred Congregation for Rites published the decree Inter Oecumenici, billed, falsely, as a step towards its implementation, but in reality, a guarantee that it would not be implemented, but rejected.
I say this because it was the decree that enshrined the celebration of the Mass versus populum. “The main altar should preferably be freestanding, to permit walking around it and celebration facing the people.” (parag. 91) The problem with this was not principally that it was based on an egregious scholarly error, one of many that marred the process …

V.R.S.

Sacrosanctum Concilium was not "misapplied" as it had been written in a way allowing to apply it in whatever way revolutionaries wanted.
It is quite grotesque to talk about "nullifying" or "killing" the document that was a mere, temporary jumping point for the further progressive leap.
Come on, that document was dead as a dodo the very moment they voted for it.
Too progressive to protect the liturgy and too conservative for the progressist lobby.
Later events only confirmed the above.
As "indultists" often miss reality they are cultivating the myth of good and salutary "Sacrosanctum Concilium" - actually, the document that had brought no good whatsoever in the field of the Catholic liturgy.

Valet to Three Popes Dies at 90

Angelo Gugel, the longtime papal valet who worked for three popes, has died in Rome at the age of 90, reports Vatican media.
Appointed in 1978 by John Paul I, the “33-day pope,” Gugel went on to serve John Paul II throughout his nearly 27-year pontificate. He retired at the beginning of the papacy of Benedict XVI, at the age of 70.
Known for his immaculate appearance, he preserved strict discretion even after retirement.
From the Gendarmerie to the Papal Household
Born on 27 April 1935 in Miane, in Italy’s Veneto region, Gugel joined the Vatican Gendarmerie at the age of 20.
After a serious bout of tuberculosis, he was transferred to the administration of the Vatican City State. Albino Luciani, his former bishop in Vittorio Veneto and a family acquaintance, personally chose him as valet after being elected pope.
When John Paul I died unexpectedly on 28 September 1978, Gugel was among the few people present in the papal bedroom.

Germany’s “slime Mass” apology from the Diocese of Rottenburg-Stuttgart reveals more than procedural regret; it underscores profound fault lines in German Catholicism—between synodal experimentation and fidelity to received doctrine. The Catholic Herald offers a measured analysis of the incident and its implications.

Germany’s “slime Mass” apology exposes deeper fault lines in the Church

A Catholic diocese in Germany has issued a formal apology after a televised Christmas Eve Mass from Stuttgart provoked a storm of criticism over an unconventional Nativity scene broadcast nationwide on public television.
The Mass, aired on ARD from St Mary’s Church in Stuttgart, featured an artistic portrayal of the newborn Christ by an adult female performance artist curled in a foetal position and covered with sticky rice paper, intended to evoke the vernix of a newborn child. It was quickly dubbed “slime Jesus”. The broadcast was produced by the Catholic Broadcasting Service at SWR, which was responsible for the concept and presentation.
In a statement published on its website, the Diocese of Rottenburg-Stuttgart said that Bishop Dr Klaus Krämer and the diocesan leadership had reviewed the reaction to the Mass and accepted that it had caused offence. “The reactions to the broadcast have shown that religious sensibilities were offended,” the diocese said, adding that those responsible …

Life can get pretty scary.
And it’s not always clear what’s going to happen next.
In fact, by now, I think that is the default most of the time for most people.
But that creates anxiety. After all, how are we supposed to meet the new week like this?
The immortal image here depicts the scene from the Gospel of Mark by Rembrandt van Rijn.
As always, Jesus shows us the way - and (as usual) it’s not what we’re expecting.
The sleeping Jesus (showing us his human limits) is awoken by a raft of panicking grown men.
Jesus wakes up (probably rather flustered) and says to the storm, “Quiet! Be still.”
He then asks the disciplines: “Why were you afraid? Have you so little faith?”
Mark continues: They were terrified and asked each other, “Who is this? Even the wind and the waves obey him!”
As usual, Jesus is full of surprises.
As we go into this week, let’s ask for the faith to weather whatever storms may come and have the courage and strength to be still.
