After two years of diocesan vacancy, on 22 July, Bishop José Guadalupe Torres Campos, 66, was installed as the third Bishop of Ecatepec, Mexico. The diocese has 1.5 million Catholics and around 100 parishes. A native of León, Guanajuato, Torres Campos was until then the Bishop of Ciudad Juárez and has ministered along Mexico’s northern border for the last eleven years. Many pictures on the internet show him in civilian clothes. Leo XIV has appointed a vocal advocate of immigration and a pastoral ideologue of "closeness2 and "acocompaniment". Bishop Torres became known for his focus on migrants, including celebrating liturgical abuses in the middle of the Rio Grande border river. He was also committed to social outreach. During the installation, Bishop Torres described the “synodal” style of ministry he will represent: "I come with the sincere desire to listen before speaking, to understand before deciding, and to love before asking. I want to be a bishop who is close to the people, a …Ve
Bishop Blocks Electronic Music Concerts in Church: On July 23, Bishop Alexandre de Bucy of Agen, southwestern France, barred an electronic music festival from using the Saint-Robert Church for concerts scheduled on August 7–9. The church is municipally owned under French law, but the bishop has authority over its religious use and the French law forbids a secular use of state-owned churches. Organizers had reportedly failed—for the fourth consecutive year—to seek permission from either the parish or the Diocese of Agen. Parish priest Rev. Gilles N'Goran condemned the planned concerts as a "profanation."
L’évêque d’Agen, Alexandre de Bucy, a interdit un concert de musique électronique dans l’église Saint-Robert, faute d’autorisation de la paroisse et du diocèse. Le festival, prévu du 7 au 9 août, était organisé pour la quatrième année consécutive sans consultation préalable. Le curé, le père Gilles N’Goran, a dénoncé le projet comme une « profanation ».
Pope Leo Urges Political Talks As Violence Intensifies In Gaza And West Bank | APT Pope Leo has renewed his appeal for peace in the Holy Land, expressing deep concern over escalating violence in Gaza and the West Bank. Speaking during the Angelus prayer at Castel Gandolfo, he called for negotiations aimed at achieving a just political solution based on equal dignity and equal rights for all. The pontiff also warned that intensified military operations across the Middle East are putting civilians at greater risk while worsening shortages of drinking water and electricity.

Munich Liturgical Controversy Goes Around the Globe: Many Catholic media outlets across the globe - in English, French, Polish, Spanish, Italian, etc. - are reporting on the latest liturgical abuse from the Archdiocese of Munich and Freising. The case centers on a Mass for the feast of St. Mary Magdalene, where Auxiliary Bishop Wolfgang Bischof delivered a "dialogue homily" together with laywoman Theresia Reischl, despite the Holy See's recent reaffirmation that the homily during Mass is reserved to an ordained minister. The celebration also featured liturgical dancing and balloons, further fueling criticism.

Today, he was consecrated as a sedevacantist bishop in the dubious Thục line.

Polish President Pardons Woman in High-Profile Free Speech Case: Polish President Karol Nawrocki pardoned in April 2026 Weronika Krawczyk, ending a widely debated free speech case. Krawczyk, a mother of three from the Starogard Gdański area (Pelplin diocese, near Gdańsk), was convicted over online posts warning other women about a gynecologist who, she said, had misdiagnosed her unborn son with Down syndrome and repeatedly urged her to have an abortion. Her son was born healthy in 2016. Krawczyk also refused a court-ordered apology to the doctor. The pardon lifted the order to publicize the verdict and the obligation to apologize. Her case had received support from pro-life and Catholic organizations, including Catholic Action in Poland and Bishop Ryszard Kasyna of Pelplin.
O sprawie pani Weroniki Krawczyk słyszała chyba cała Polska. Kobieta została skazana tylko za to, że odradziła na forum internetowym korzystanie z usług ginekologa, który chciał zabić jej nienarodzone dziecko. Lekarz ten proponował jej aborcję, twierdząc, że dziecko urodzi się z zespołem Downa. Ostatecznie urodziła zdrowego synka, a lekarz nie poniósł żadnej odpowiedzialności karnej. Pani Weronika natomiast została ukarana za opinię, w której wyraziła sprzeciw wobec jego działań. Sąd w Gdańsku skazał kobietę na 60 godzin prac społecznych oraz karę finansową, a także zobowiązał do przeprosin. Ponieważ nie wyobrażała sobie możliwości przeproszenia abortera, który chciał zabić jej dziecko, groziło jej realnie więzienie. Za Weroniką Krawczyk wstawiły się liczne środowiska pro-life, a później również biskup diecezji pelplińskiej. Jako matka trójki dzieci, w tym jednego z niepełnosprawnością, także ze względu na ich dobro wnioskowała do Prezydenta RP o ułaskawienie. Znają już Państwo szczęśliwe …Ve
The French Ministry of the Armed Forces and the City of Versailles have announced on July 23 that the former Récollets Convent in Versailles will be converted into a luxury hotel. Located less than 100 meters from the Palace of Versailles, the historic site is expected to reopen around 2030. Built in 1684 during the reign of King Louis XIV, the convent was designed by architect Jules Hardouin-Mansart. It originally housed the Récollets, a reformed branch of the Franciscan Order. The monks lived in poverty, prayer, and preaching while serving the people of Versailles and the royal armies. Following the French Revolution, the monks were expelled and the property was nationalized. The convent chapel was demolished in 1796, and the remaining buildings were successively used as a prison, military infirmary, army barracks, and administrative offices. The French state will retain ownership of the property but will grant a long-term emphyteutic lease to a private operator responsible for restoring …Ve

Today, Fr Michael Mary, superior of the sedevacantist Transalpine Redemptorists in Scotland, will be consecrated as an alleged bishop. Katholisch.de traced the long and tangled succession lines of schismatic bishops, focusing primarily on the lines of Marcel Lefebvre (1905-1991) and Pierre Martin Ngô Đình Thục (1897–1984). Here are the key points:. Lefebvre line (FSSPX) Among the different splinter groups, only the SSPX has significant size. In 1988, Lefebvre consecrated Alfonso de Galarreta, Bernard Fellay, Bernard Tissier de Mallerais, and Richard Williamson as bishops. All four later consecrated additional bishops. In 1991, Tissier de Mallerais consecrated Licínio Rangel for the Priestly Union of St. John Mary Vianney, Brazil. Rangel and his community reconciled with Rome in 2002 and became an Apostolic Personal Administration. The same year Fernando Arêas Rifan became Rangel's coadjutor, but he was consecrated by Cardinal Darío Castrillón Hoyos, with Rangel serving only as co-…Ve
I used to wonder how the consecration requested by Our Lady of Fatima, in unison with all the Bishops of the world could ever take place since bishops are all over the place with their beliefs. Then I realized as these bishops ascend to heresy, they are no longer bishops so it may end up being some sede, bishops, SSPX and a few good sons of the church left in the NO. There is the manageable number.

He mentions how the history books in Ukraine were changed. That's odd because someone posted more twisted history about Crimea and said, it was never part of Russia. Yet History Professors and experts on Russian history all say the same thing. Crimea was always a part of Russia until the 1950's. Including both Russian and Ukrainians. They all agree, Crimea was always part of Russia! Professor Brovkin, Scott Ritter, Larry Johnson, Col Macgregor, and many, many more. Even those I don't normally listen to all said the same thing. Crimea was always part of Russia! I know and most know how our history books have been changed drastically. So I wonder why anyone who do such an underhanded thing to post it and try to get others to believe such a lie that Crimea was never part of Russia. Very sad when people insist on posting propaganda so much. Especially as they are losing the war with their propaganda.
