At today’s General Audience, Leo XIV praised the failed liturgical reform after Vatican II. He quoted extensively from a letter by the future Paul VI, Cardinal Montini, dated October 1962. He wrote that the faithful “cannot and must no longer remain silent and passive”. No Participation: Novus Ordo Churches Empty Leo XIV added that “the participation of the faithful cannot be passive”. The Conciliar reform “was intended to allow the liturgy to shine forth”. He believes there was “the need to make the richness of the biblical texts and prayers more accessible to all the faithful”. "Necessary" to Revise Liturgy Furthermore, Leo XIV claims that the liturgy “has always been subject to developments and changes”. “It is therefore not surprising that the Second Vatican Council too, with the utmost respect for the heritage of tradition, and precisely in order to make it more accessible, considered it necessary to revise the liturgical books.” According to Leo XIV, “the liturgical reform promoted …'Besdal
Today, Leo XIV welcomed the Lutheran State Bishops of Norway in audience. Referring to the fallen human condition, Leo XIV said it is “all too easy to adopt an attitude of hostility toward those with whom we disagree”. That is why he seeks – at least with Protestants – “concrete paths of reconciliation and of fraternity”. Leo XIV recalled Christ’s prayer for the unity of his disciples. Key phrase: “Grounded in our common Baptism and our shared mission in the world, I pray that we may always grow together in our service to the promotion of peace and justice.” Picture: Vatican Media, #newsVyggmwuakm
26.08.2026 POPE LEO INTERPRETED VATICAN COUNCIL II WITH CUSHINGISM AND NOT FEENEYISM AND THEN EXCOMMUNICATED THE SSPX BISHOPS. POPE FRANCIS DID THE SAME WITH ABP. CARLO MARIA VIGANO : NON CHRISTIANS DID NOT PROTEST Non Christians in Britain must interpret Lumen Gentium 16 (saved in invincible ignorance) as being physically invisible cases in 2026. This is common sense. It is important for them to interpret Vatican Council II (LG 8, 14 16 etc) rationally i.e. LG 16 refers to an invisible case. So the conclusion is traditional. Vatican Council II says outside the Catholic Church there is no salvation (AG 7/ CCC 846). Since LG 8, 14, 16 are hypothetical and invisible cases only, they are not practical exceptions for Ad Gentes 7 which says all need faith and baptism for salvation. So AG 7 is aligned with the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus of the Council of Florence 1442 and LG 8, 14, 16 etc are not practical exceptions for AG 7 or EENS. Invisible people cannot be objective examples of …'Besdal

A sailor had been receiving letters from a woman he had never met. Her name was Rose. They had been writing to each other for three years. Somewhere between the long months at sea, the lonely evenings, and the letters he read over and over, he realized he had come to depend on her words. She became part of his life, and without ever planning it, they fell in love. When his service finally ended, they agreed to meet at the city’s main train station at five o’clock. Rose told him she would be wearing a red rose pinned to her coat so he could recognize her. On the way there, the sailor couldn’t stop wondering what she looked like. He had never seen a photograph of her. He didn’t know her age. He had no idea whether she was beautiful or plain, tall or short, slim or heavy. At exactly five, he saw a woman approaching with a red rose pinned to her coat. She looked to be around sixty. For a moment, the sailor hesitated. He could have turned around and walked away. Rose would never have known. …'Besdal

Bishop Guido Gallese, 64, of Alessandria, Piedmont, is reportedly set to be removed from his diocese. LoSpiffero.com wrote on August 23 that the Apostolic Nuncio to Italy, Archbishop Edgar Peña Parra, has been handling negotiations over Gallese’s exit following an Apostolic Visitation conducted by Cardinal Giuseppe Bertello earlier this year. Bishop Gallese, who is described as reluctant to leave, had sought a transfer to another diocese, but the proposal was rejected. Archbishop Peña Parra, who previously served as the Substitute for General Affairs in the Vatican Secretariat of State, offered the bishop several possible “ways out.” The solution now under discussion would see Bishop Gallese become ecclesiastical assistant to the Collegamento Nazionale Santuari, Italy’s national network of Catholic shrines. Ansa.it reported that the Apostolic Visitation focused on the administration and finances of the diocese amid controversy over the bishop’s lifestyle. Considerable media attention …'Besdal
Preliminary Recourse of FSSPX Rejected: The Vatican’s deadline to respond to the Priestly Fraternity of St. Pius X (FSSPX) regarding its preliminary recourse against the July 2 decree declaring six bishops automatically excommunicated has now passed, notes @Michael Haynes The FSSPX submitted its recourse to the Holy See on July 11. Under canon law, the competent authority had 30 days to respond. With that period now expired without a decision, the FSSPX can proceed to the next stage of its canonical challenge. Canon 1735 provides that when no decision is issued within the prescribed 30 days, the time limit for presenting hierarchical recourse begins to run from the 30th day.

brhenry Pope Leo XIV has appointed Knights of Columbus Supreme Knight Patrick Kelly as a member of the Dicastery for the Laity, the Family, and Life. The Vatican announced Kelly’s appointment on Aug. 25. The dicastery was created by Pope Francis in 2016 to promote, as stated in its statutes, “the apostolate of the lay faithful, the pastoral care of the family and its mission according to God’s plan and for the safeguard and support of human life.” The dicastery is also the Vatican office responsible for organizing the international World Youth Day (WYD).

Rev. Michael Pfleger, 77, was reinstated effective August 24 after the Archdiocese of Chicago's Independent Review Board completed its investigation. He is known nationally for his progressive activism. Cardinal Blase Cupich, 77, said the board, assisted by the Office of Child Protection and outside investigators, concluded there was “no reason to believe” Pfleger was guilty of the allegation. Cupich accepted the recommendation and returned him to ministry at St. Sabina. According to the Chicago Sun-Times reporting, a woman alleged that Pfleger sexually abused her when she was a girl attending St. Sabina's school sometime between 1993 and 1995. The allegation surfaced this July, and Pfleger was removed from ministry on July 11 while it was investigated. Rev. Pfleger denied it emphatically from the outset, calling it an “absolute lie.” Under archdiocesan policy, the allegation was reported to police, and the accuser was offered assistance through the church's Victim Assistance Ministry. …'Besdal

A fake priest in Kenya managed to concelebrate the Eucharist alongside Bishop John Mbinda of Lodwar before being exposed. Jones Bogonko Onchonga used forged documents to pose as a Catholic priest and “celebrate” Eucharists in several churches. Suspicions arose during a Eucharist on August 9, when Catholics noticed irregularities in his celebration: he appeared tense and left the altar during the service. A photo was shared among local clergy, prompting questions about his liturgical identity. The Diocese of Lodwar later confirmed that he was not an ordained priest, but a married layman and father of two. He now faces criminal charges over the alleged impersonation and use of false documents. According to Fides, police said Onchonga confessed to having impersonated a priest for almost two years. #newsYtokmgfddk
Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Matthew 23,23-26. Jesus said: "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites. You pay tithes of mint and dill and cummin, and have neglected the weightier things of the law: judgment and mercy and fidelity. (But) these you should have done, without neglecting the others. Blind guides, who strain out the gnat and swallow the camel! Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites. You cleanse the outside of cup and dish, but inside they are full of plunder and self-indulgence. Blind Pharisee, cleanse first the inside of the cup, so that the outside also may be clean."
