Tonight at Castel Gandolfo, Pope Leo XIV responded to the criticism he has received from Donald Trump: "From the first moment, I have spoken of peace. The mission of the Church is to preach the Gospel and to promote peace. If anyone wants to criticise me for doing so, they should do so truthfully. The Church has spoken out against nuclear weapons for years, so there is no doubt about that."
Leo's brief comments to the press this evening -- “I have already spoken from the first moment ‘peace be with you.’ The mission of the Church is to preach the Gospel, to preach peace. If anyone wants to criticize me for proclaiming the Gospel, let them do so truthfully. The Church has spoken out against all nuclear weapons for years, so there is no doubt about that”
No, your excellency. The mission of the Catholic Church is NOT to bring peace; it is to lead all mankind to salvation. Indeed, Jesus Christ has told us He did not come to bring peace, but division. You and other Vatican II Modernists have turned the Church established by Jesus Christ on its head.
Rev Gerardo Saco resigned from his appointment as Bishop of the Diocese of Tagbilaran in the Philippines. Pope Leo XIV appointed Rev. Saco on 25 March 2026, with the episcopal ordination scheduled for 26 May. On 5 May, Cebu Archbishop Alberto Uy announced that Leo XIV had accepted Rev Saco’s resignation. Rev Saco suddenly discovered a “change of heart” and “human limitations and inadequacies”. However, it is more likely that there is an undisclosed issue behind this decision. Choosing Bishops with Hidden Scandals Declining after papal appointment and before ordination used to be very rare in the Church. It has increased in the past decade as a side effect of deliberately appointing compromised or unsuitable candidates. In Argentina alone, Francis appointed three priests as bishops who then resigned from the episcopal consecration weeks later. Bishop Pascalis Syukur, who was reportedly in a romantic relationship with a woman and had fathered two children, accepted Pope Francis’s …තව
On 29 April, the Canadian homosexual activist Jake Tucker, 39, was found guilty of multiple sex-trafficking and assault-related charges following a trial in Barrie, Ontario. Tucker is in a homosexual "marriage" and produced/bought a baby girl via surrogacy. In the past, he has organised homosexual events, drag nights, flag raising, and other local activist initiatives. According to prosecutors, Tucker recruited, controlled and exploited two women for several years, arranging their prostitution and taking a share of the profits. He also used coercion, violence and drugs to maintain control. The case began in 2022, when a woman reported to the police that Tucker had trafficked her for years. Investigators later identified a second alleged victim who made similar claims. After the verdict, Tucker denied the allegations and said he plans to appeal, arguing that the women were lying and that the police investigation was flawed. He is expected to return to court for sentencing and could face …තව
From DA: "I am a practicing catholic. And I need to say something that's going to make a lot of people uncomfortable. Nigeria, the Sahel, India, Syria, Bangladesh, Pakistan, hundreds of Christians have been murdered this year alone. Churches burned to the ground, pastors kidnapped and killed. Communities that have practiced their faith for centuries are being wiped out. Pope Leo XIV has said almost nothing. NO named condemnations, NO emergency visits, NO breaking of protocol, just quiet platitudes about dialogue and peace - directed at nobody in particular. BUT the week Trump escalated the Iran war? Leo flew across continents, gave media interviews, posted viral messages and had three Cardinals appear on 60 minutes in what felt like a coordinated response. Bishop Strickland was removed for defending the Church doctrine. Bishop Fernández in Puerto Rico was removed for defending religious exemptions that the cathechism itself supports. During Covid, goverments padlocked churches across …තව
Tulsi Gabbard dropped a bombshell: "Joe Biden was not calling the shots.. and neither was Kamala Harris" in charge. Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, Antony Blinken, Jake Sullivan, and the Deep State using the Autopen to run the Joe Biden Presidency."
May 6th - Saint of the Day: Saint Lucius of Cyrene, Prophet & Bishop He’s only mentioned briefly in Scripture, but Saint Lucius of Cyrene was standing at one of the most explosive moments in Church history. This North African saint from Cyrene, modern-day Libya, was one of the prophets and teachers in the Church at Antioch. That means he was there when the Holy Spirit said, “Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul” and helped launch the missionary journeys of Saint Paul. No famous speeches. No long biography. No spotlight. Just prayer. Fasting. Teaching. Discernment. Obedience. And somehow, his hidden faithfulness helped send the Gospel to the nations. Later Catholic tradition even remembers him as the first bishop of Cyrene, though Scripture only confirms him as a prophet and teacher in Antioch. Either way, his story hits hard: sometimes the saints who change history are the ones quietly helping others answer God’s call. Want the full story of Saint Lucius of Cyrene …තව
Sunday, May 4, 1913: Grand Jury to Take Up Phagan Case Tomorrow Sunday, May 4th, 1913 The uncertainty that has marked every phase in the case of Mary Phagan probably will be somewhat removed when the new Fulton County Grand Jury for the May term of the Superior Court meets tomorrow. Definite action by that body is anticipated after the Coroner's jury, which also resumes its sessions tomorrow, has reached a decision. The action, it is believed, will be the result of the efforts of a small army of private detectives retained by the authority of Solicitor General Dorsey. The number of the detectives could not be determined, but it is the opinion in official circles that the county and the State are ready, if necessary, to spend an unlimited sum to bring the murderer of Mary Phagan to justice. The State has taken a hand in the investigation, co equal with the city, and every force at the command of the Solicitor General has been employed to unravel the mystery. It was at the request of …තව
"Hence it is that so few attain to perfection; for after having with much toil overcome the greater vices, they will not persevere in doing violence to themselves by struggling against the promptings of self-will, and an infinity of lesser desires. They grow weary of so unremitting a struggle; they suffer these insignificant enemies to prevail against them, and so to acquire an absolute mastery over their hearts."
[Father Dom Lorenzo Scupoli – XVI-XVII Century AD; Otranto, Kingdom of Naples/Naples, Kingdom of Naples; (aged 79-80); Priest; Spiritual Writer] Chapter XI ~ Of some considerations which may incline the Will to seek to please God in all things Furthermore, to incline the will more readily to seek God's honor and glory in all things, always remember that, in many and various ways, He has first loved and honored you. In creation, by creating you out of nothing after His likeness, and all other creatures for your service. In Redemption, by sending, not an angel, but His only-begotten Son, to redeem you, not with the corruptible price of silver and gold, but with His Precious Blood, and by His most painful and ignominious death. Remember, that every hour, nay, every moment, He protects you from your enemies, fights for you by His grace, offers you continually, in the Sacrament of the Altar, His well-beloved Son, to be your food and your defense; are not all these tokens of the inestimable …තව

Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint John 15,1-8. Jesus said to his disciples: "I am the true vine, and my Father is the vine grower. He takes away every branch in me that does not bear fruit, and everyone that does he prunes so that it bears more fruit. You are already pruned because of the word that I spoke to you. Remain in me, as I remain in you. Just as a branch cannot bear fruit on its own unless it remains on the vine, so neither can you unless you remain in me. I am the vine, you are the branches. Whoever remains in me and I in him will bear much fruit, because without me you can do nothing. Anyone who does not remain in me will be thrown out like a branch and wither; people will gather them and throw them into a fire and they will be burned. If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask for whatever you want and it will be done for you. By this is my Father glorified, that you bear much fruit and become my disciples."
Aus dem Heiligen Evangelium nach Johannes - Joh 15,1-8. In jener Zeit sprach Jesus zu seinen Jüngern: Ich bin der wahre Weinstock und mein Vater ist der Winzer. Jede Rebe an mir, die keine Frucht bringt, schneidet er ab und jede Rebe, die Frucht bringt, reinigt er, damit sie mehr Frucht bringt. Ihr seid schon rein kraft des Wortes, das ich zu euch gesagt habe. Bleibt in mir und ich bleibe in euch. Wie die Rebe aus sich keine Frucht bringen kann, sondern nur, wenn sie am Weinstock bleibt, so auch ihr, wenn ihr nicht in mir bleibt. Ich bin der Weinstock, ihr seid die Reben. Wer in mir bleibt und in wem ich bleibe, der bringt reiche Frucht; denn getrennt von mir könnt ihr nichts vollbringen. Wer nicht in mir bleibt, wird wie die Rebe weggeworfen und er verdorrt. Man sammelt die Reben, wirft sie ins Feuer und sie verbrennen. Wenn ihr in mir bleibt und meine Worte in euch bleiben, dann bittet um alles, was ihr wollt: Ihr werdet es erhalten. Mein Vater wird dadurch verherrlicht, dass ihr …තව
