Leo XIV held a telephone conversation with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky today, three days after speaking with Russian President Vladimir Putin. Pope Leo XIV reiterated his appeal for a humanitarian truce to allow food and medical supplies to reach civilians in the Russian-occupied town of Oleshky, in Ukraine's Kherson region. According to UN estimates, around 1,700 people, including 47 children, remain trapped in Oleshky. During his October 16 conversation with Putin, held from Rome's Gemelli Hospital while recovering from surgery, Leo XIV requested a humanitarian ceasefire. The Kremlin expressed willingness to cooperate with Vatican humanitarian efforts but made no ceasefire commitment. #newsJslefgfyqn
S.D. Wright: ‘ZERO MARKS’ – Why the Conciliar/Synodal Church is not the Catholic Church A Summary Full Series: ‘Radically insufficient’ – Reply to Fr Crean on the Church’s visibility ‘Zero Marks’ – Why the Conciliar/Synodal Church is not the Catholic Church ‘Spotless and Unsullied’ – Indefectibility and the Extended Vacancy Introduction “All this leads a great number of people to ask themselves if the Church of today is really the same as that of yesterday, or if they have changed it for something else without telling people.” Cardinal Ratzinger, 13 July 1988 Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger – later Benedict XVI — posed this question in the aftermath of Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre’s 1988 episcopal consecrations for the Society of St Pius X. In this conference, delivered to the bishops of Chile, Ratzinger argued that what Lefebvre had called the “Conciliar Church” was indeed the same Catholic Church which had preceded Vatican II. In fact, the term “Conciliar Church” was Paul VI himself, and he …Magis
Father Ripperger is no longer allowed to appear in public. Denver Archbishop James Golka ordered celebrity priest Fr. Chad Ripperger, 61, to cease all public ministry for one year, until September 2027, reports LifeSiteNews.com. The command covers public appearances, online homilies, and writings. Talks already scheduled have been cancelled. Fr. Ripperger was ordained in 1997 for the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter (FSSP). He left the FSSP in 2012, began working as an exorcist, and built a following - his own priestly community (the Doloran Fathers). The community was received into the Archdiocese of Denver under the conservative Archbishop Samuel Aquila. Leo XIV retired Monsignor Aquila in February and appointed Archbishop Golka as successor. Fr. Ripperger, small in statue, is a learned and serious priest. His strong focus on the demonic can become sensationalist and egocentric. He lends undue certainty to speculative claims. His recent media appearances have included conversations …Magis

"She is simply standing there praying. There is nothing wrong with that." Silent prayer is NOT a crime — yet Isabel Vaughan-Spruce once again is facing criminal charges for just that.
Leo XIV appoints blatant heretics to Vatican commission. Today, Pope Leo XIV appointed 24 new members to the International Theological Commission and renewed the mandates of six others, bringing its total membership to 30. The International Theological Commission was established in 1969 by Pope Paul VI to advise the Pope and the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith. Chilean Theologian praises Communion for practicing Homosexuals Among the newly appointed members is Claudia Leal Luna, a Chilean theologian and professor at the Pontifical John Paul II Theological Institute for Marriage and Family Sciences in Rome. She is known for questioning the Church's teaching on homosexuality. In March 2021, following a declaration by the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith prohibiting blessings of same-sex unions, Leal Luna attacked the document in an interview with 'Radio Universidad de Chile'. Luna criticized the Vatican's distinction between blessing homosexual individuals and blessing …Magis
Christine Niles published the statement from the archdiocese of Denver on Fr. Ripperger: "Archbishop Golka recently met with Fr. Chad Ripperger to discuss his ministry and his community, the Society of the Most Sorrowful Mother. During that conversation, the Archbishop asked Fr. Ripperger to consider a one-year fast from public speaking and interviews. The time will allow him to devote himself to the Society and to the people it serves. Fr. Ripperger readily agreed. At the end of the year, they will review the arrangement together. Archbishop Golka is grateful for Fr. Ripperger’s priestly service, exorcism ministry, and for the generous spirit in which he received this request. We ask the faithful to join us in praying for Fr. Ripperger and for the Society."

Gänswein avoids answering question about the traditional Latin Mass. During an October 17 interview on Twitch.tv, Archbishop Georg Gänswein was asked whether the more liberal German Church could learn from growing interest in Catholicism among young people in France and the US. The interviewer specifically mentioned the “Mass according to old rites” as a possible reason for success there. Gänswein did not directly address the old Mass. Instead, he said young people are “searching for answers” and finding “nourishment” in the Gospel and the Church’s message. He stressed that faith is not merely “something I have intellectually in my head.” What matters, he said, is a relationship with “the person who is essential to Christianity, namely Jesus Christ.”
Frage an Gänswein: Bewegt die jüngere Generation so etwas wie die Messe in alten Riten? Wäre das – nach dem Vorbild von Frankreich und den USA – ein Erfolgsmodell für Deutschland?

V. Sancte Míchaël Archángele, defénde nos in prælio; contra nequítiam et insídias diáboli esto præsídium.
