On 17 May, Ukrainian FEMEN activist Inna Shevchenko, 35, staged a performance at the neo-Gothic St Elisabeth's Church in Vienna, Austria. The event was part of the 2025 Vienna Festival Weeks (Wiener Festwochen), which had a pagan theme entitled "Republic of Gods". Shevchenko has campaigned for abortion, homosexuality and blasphemy, usually half-naked. In 2012, she cut down a large wooden cross in Kyiv. In October 2025, Pope Leo XIV appointed Josef Grünwidl as Archbishop of Vienna. He was widely regarded as one of the most liberal priests in the archdiocese. Shevchenko Presents "New Form of Liturgy" At St Elisabeth's Church, Shevchenko was dressed in black. She presented what the organisers described as a 'new form of liturgy'. The event was even advertised as an "alternative Mass". Standing before the altar, Shevchenko asked, "Who speaks?" A women's choir responded, "Woman." She then wrote the word 'Woman' on a sign, held it aloft and began a speech centred on her interpretation of …Aswan

New Vatican Prefectessa Is Divorced: Montse Alvarado, the new Prefect of the Vatican Dicastery for Communication, stated in an interview on Youtube.com on March 10, 2025: "I'm not married, but I am annulled in the Church, and I think it's important to talk about that too, for people to realize that annulment brings you closer to the Church and closer to Christ."
Montse Alvarado: “I'm not married, but I am annulled in the church, and I think it's important to talk about that too, for people to realize that annulment brings you closer to the church and closer to Christ.” This is the new Prefect of the Vatican Dicastery for Communication in a video on March 10, 2025.
Anyone claiming 'annulment brings you closer to the Church and closer to Christ' likely should have not been granted an annulment until such a misconception/misunderstanding could be clarified. Her declaration seems like a (proud) advertisement for annulment. Is this the kind of skewed 'communications' we can expect from her office? In and of itself, her annulment would not disqualify her from the job but her perspective certainly should. As bungled a piece of communication as one could fabricate.
Today in his meeting with civil authorities and the diplomatic corps in Spain, Leo XIV portrayed the oppressive Islamic occupation of Spain (711-1492) as place of confrontation, but also of dialogue and encounter between religions: “The presence of Islam on the Iberian Peninsula, for example, constituted a long-standing political, cultural, and religious reality. During that period, there was not only confrontation, but also an attempt to create a space for contact, conversation and dialogue on the meaning of truth among Christians, Muslims and Jews. At the School of Translators enhanced by Alfonso X (the Wise), experts from all three religions collaborated on translating the texts of the rich Arabic, Greek and Hebrew heritage, contributing to the dissemination of texts such as those of the philosophers Averroes (1126-1198) and Maimonides (1138-1204), among others. The cities of Córdoba and Toledo, in particular, became centers of dialogue between languages, religions and knowledge. …Aswan
Folha de S. Paulo, 12 novembre 1979 (*) Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira Date du 20 mars de cette année qui touche à sa fin, un document que je n’hésite pas à qualifier de la plus belle lettre pastorale collective publiée depuis l’époque de Pie XII. Je ne l’ai connue que par un exemplaire de « Cristianità » (Piacenza, Italie, octobre 1979), qui la transcrit de « La Documentation Catholique » (5/19-8-79). Il s’agit d’un message signé par Mgr Matthew Kia Yen-Wen, archevêque de Taipei, par Mgr Joseph Kuo, archevêque de Salamina et neuf autres évêques et prélats de Formose [Taiwan]. Kuo Joshih (Guo Ruoshi), Joseph Kia Yen-Wen, Matthew Dès que je l’ai lu, j’ai décidé d’en faire un résumé pour les lecteurs de la « Folha ». Mon esprit s’est abreuvé de ce texte, limpide et cristallin, comme un voyageur du Sahara – selon l’image éculée – s’abreuverait à la source généreuse trouvée dans une oasis inattendue.

Here's press release statement from Cardinal Robert McElroy, Archbishop of Washington, on the dismissal Monsignor Stephen Rossetti and his entire team: The Archdiocese of Washington announced today that Robert Cardinal McElroy has removed Monsignor Stephen Rossetti, a priest of the Diocese of Syracuse, N.Y., as an exorcist of the Archdiocese of Washington, and ended all affiliation between the archdiocese and the Saint Michael Center for Spiritual Renewal located in Washington, D.C. Cardinal McElroy said that statements made by Monsignor Rossetti linking UFOs to demonic presence and the Center’s recent use of social media gravely undermine the Church’s very precise teaching on the devil, demons and exorcism. What did Msgr. Rosetti actually say that got him dismissed? Here's what he stated in a May 29 video where he discussed UFO sightings and the possibility of alien life. “There’s a danger here. As an exorcist, I wanted to raise that danger. And that is that demons like to hide… …
Monsignor Stephen Rossetti posits that instead of an open, healthy dialogue, the Church has historically fostered "a climate of repression and/or obsession" that contributes to deviant sexual behavior.

There is no talking to the trump supporters. Their pride and ego like trumps will refuse to admit anything he has done wrong. Even with mounds of proof, they have ignored it all. And they lose it when you expose him for what he is. Then comes the excuses. And worse than that, comes the attacks on those who try to expose him as the forked tongue beast that he truly is.
Sermons of St. John Chrysostom, Dearly beloved brethren, it behoveth us to learn the miracle of the Mysteries what the Gift is, and why It was given, and what is the use thereof. “We, being many, are one body,” saith [the Apostle Paul, 1 Cor. x. 17, and again] “We are members of His Body, of His Flesh, and of His Bones.” Eph. v. 30. Only the initiated will now understand what I say. That this union may take place, not by love only, but verily and indeed, we ought to mingle our own with His Flesh. And this is done by eating that Food Which He hath given unto us, being fain to manifest that exceeding great love which He beareth to us-ward. To this end He hath mingled Himself with us, and infused His Body into our bodies, that we may be one together, like as the limbs of a man and his head are all of one body. Such union do they long for that love much
Saint Claudius of Besançon | A Humble Shepherd of God's People | Feast Day June 6th Saint Claudius lived during the 7th century in what is now France. He first served as a monk and later became an abbot, dedicating his life to prayer, study, and guiding others in the faith. Eventually, he was appointed Bishop of Besançon, where he became known for his wisdom, humility, and care for God's people. Despite holding positions of authority, Saint Claudius remained focused on serving rather than being served. He encouraged holiness, faithfulness, and charity among both clergy and laity. He is remembered for: Deep prayer and devotion Faithful pastoral leadership Humility and charity Wisdom and holiness First Epistle of Peter 5:2–3 "Tend the flock of God in your midst... not lording it over those assigned to you, but being examples to the flock." Saint Claudius reminds us: leadership is a form of service holiness grows through humility faithful shepherds help …Aswan
Saint Claude - le 7 juin Évêque du Jura (+ 699) Évêque de Besançon. D'abord militaire, il embrassa la vie monastique à Condat dans le Jura avant d'être élu évêque de Besançon. Mais dès qu'il le put, il résilia cette charge pour rejoindre la solitude. Son monastère et le village voisin prirent son nom et le diocèse s'est placé sous son patronage: Saint-Claude-39200. ...Claude, abbé de Saint-Oyend-de-Joux, administre cette abbaye durant près de 50 ans, du milieu du VIIe siècle (vers 650) jusqu'à la fin du VIIe siècle (vers 695). Il est revêtu 7 ans de la dignité épiscopale, sans doute d'évêque claustral. De son administration, nous savons qu'il cherche à subvenir aux besoins croissants de son abbaye et qu'il contribue à son développement et à son rayonnement. L'histoire apporte peu de certitude sur la vie et la personne de saint Claude. La tradition veut qu'il soit né à Salins d'une famille gallo-romaine et qu'il ait été évêque de Besançon. Cet homme, qui de son vivant mène …Aswan
