Novus Ordo with Flatbread while Sitting on the Floor: On July 1, two priests of the Diocese of Gurk-Klagenfurt, Austria, celebrated their 30th anniversary of ordination at the Europagymnasium in Klagenfurt. According to the diocese’s website, they celebrated “a Mass sitting on the floor and with flatbread.”

"FSSPX Confessions Are Valid" - Müller Contradicts Tucho: On July 6, K-TV asked Cardinal Gerhard Müller whether confessions heard by priests of the Priestly Society of Saint Pius X are valid or invalid. Contrary to Cardinal Tucho Fernández, he replied: "The confessions are valid, but illicit. The power to forgive or retain sins is conferred through the sacrament of Holy Orders. Its exercise can only be restricted by the bishop or the Pope, as provided by canon law."
Kardinal Gerhard Müller zu Beichten bei den Priestern der Piusbruderschaft (K-TV, 6. Juli): "Die Beichen sind gültig, aber unerlaubt, denn die Vollmacht, Zünden zu vergeben und zu behalten, ist ja durch das Weihesakrament übertragen. Sie kann nur in der Ausübung durch den Bischof oder den Papst eingeschränkt werden, bis nach dem Kirchenrecht vorgegeben ist." (via @Klaus Elmar Müller)
National Rally leader Marine Le Pen has been sentenced to 3 years in prison (2 of which are suspended) and fined €100,000 The remaining one year will be served under house arrest with an electronic bracelet. The court also reduced her political ineligibility from 5 years to 45 months (3.7 years), of which she has already served 30 months. Because Le Pen had already begun serving the disqualification from the initial ruling, the court ruled that the ineligibility period has been satisfied, making her eligible to run in France’s April 2027 presidential election. Le Pen has previously stated that she would not seek the presidency if forced to campaign while wearing an electronic ankle monitor.

Instead of trying to convert them so they can be saved, they affirm them in their error so that they will be lost. The real Catholic Church would never do this but a false one would.
“We must put an end to liturgical abuses that contradict the teachings of the Second Vatican Council,” Cardinal Antonio María Rouco Varela, 89, Archbishop Emeritus of Madrid, told LaNuovaBq.it on July 7. Furthermore, he called for “understanding for those who wish to attend the older rite” and for “respect for the freedom of the faithful within the communion of the Church” - that is, “not by imposing excessive regulations.” He described Pope Benedict XVI’s Motu Proprio Summorum Pontificum (July 7, 2007) as “a very understanding and balanced measure, and I think it was a good one.” He added: “In Madrid there is still a church where the traditional rite is celebrated.” German Bishops Acting Against the Church On the German Synodal Way, Cardinal Rouco Varela said that “canon law has been stretched beyond its limits” and warned that the situation “affects the fundamental aspects of the faith.” If the planned synodal committee in Germany were to function as “a body exercising authority within …بیہ

The episcopal consecrations by the Priestly Fraternity of St. Pius X in Écône on July 1 have revived an old question: how many Catholics are attached to the FSSPX? The answer is surprisingly elusive. Depending on the source, estimates range from around 100,000 to as many as 600,000 faithful worldwide. The FSSPX itself continues to publish the figure of 600,000 faithful. However, the number of 600,000 comes from a speech delivered in 2007 by Cardinal Darío Castrillón Hoyos, then President of the Pontifical Commission Ecclesia Dei. Speaking to the Latin American bishops at Aparecida, he stated that the "Lefebvrian group" consisted of four bishops, 500 priests and 600,000 faithful. The number is difficult to reconcile with the FSSPX’s infrastructure. The FSSPX has approximately 730 priests, about 180 priories and houses, and 750 chapels and Mass centres. Many of these chapels are small mission stations where Mass is celebrated only once or twice a month with few faithful. In 2019, Fr Pascal …بیہ
I know in my Church it's packed during the three Masses held in the morning. And then there is one at night. Usually about half full. You will see people standing during the day. There is a nursing room also with mothers and small children as well as in the Vestibule. And also sometimes in a side room. It holds about 1,000 people or so I believe. We have 7 SSPX Church's in Florida. I would say, and would like to believe that there is at least 600,000 SSPX supporters and attendees.

Turin Parish Holds Funeral for Muslim. Worse than Germany: On 3 July, the body of an Iranian Muslim was brought to Sant'Anna parish in Turin for a ceremony led by the parish priest, Don Valter Danna. The service included Christian prayers and the use of incense. Don Danna said it was not a Catholic funeral but rather a "prayer of farewell," explaining that the family had close ties to the parish. He confirmed that the ceremony was intentionally distinguished from a Catholic funeral.
"Diciamo che si è persa la capacità di costruire un bel luogo dove ritrovarsi. La freddezza della struttura in cemento armato, l'assenza completa di qualcosa che assomigli ad un segno di vita nel luogo è tipico dei luoghi Religiosi; come privato della Sua parte migliore il luogo rende opprimente la sosta e forte la voglia di correre via. Ci si sente quasi allarmati a leggere tutti i divieti appesi alle inferriate: viviamo in un mondo che ci è Vietato?

CATHOLIC DOCTRINE TEACHES: CCC 1184 "Ecclesiastical funeral rites are to be denied, unless the deceased gave some signs of repentance before death: 1. to notorious apostates, heretics, or schismatics; 2. to those who requested the cremation of their bodies for reasons contrary to the Christian faith; 3. to other manifest sinners, to whom ecclesiastical funeral rites cannot be granted without public scandal to the faithful." Can. 1185 Any funeral Mass must also be denied to a person excluded from ecclesiastical funeral rites.

Worse than Germany: Archbishop Erio Castellucci of Modena-Nonantola has proposed a form of liturgical "co-presidency" in which women would lead the Liturgy of the Word while priests would preside over the Eucharistic consecration. The proposal appears in a speech published on May 24 in the diocesan bulletin, delivered at a conference organized by the Centro Italiano Femminile in Carpi. Monsignor Castellucci is the vice President of the Italian bishops and President of the National Committee for the Italian Synod. He suggested that women could take responsibility for the first part of the Eucharist, proclaiming the Resurrection "as Mary Magdalene did to the apostles." This would sidestep "the impasse" over women's ordination while still respecting Church teaching that only a priest can consecrate. Archbishop Castellucci also called for expanding shared governance in the Church, proposing that consultative councils' recommendations be made binding after a process of "consensus-building,"…بیہ
Today, Leo XIV appointed Monsignor Christian Würtz, 55, as Bishop of Eichstätt, Germany. Leo XIV again chose a canon lawyer. A native of Karlsruhe, he originally studied law at Heidelberg University before entering the seminary. He holds two doctorates - one in both civil and canon law (doctor iuris utriusque) and another in theology. He also served as rector of Freiburg's seminary. At 48, he was the youngest bishop in Germany when he was ordained auxiliary bishop of Freiburg in 2019. At 55, he now becomes the youngest diocesan bishop in Germany. Part of the "Rainbow" Faction Among Bishops In September 2022, Monsignor Würtz voted "yes" at the German Synodal Way for the controversial document on the Doctrinal Reassessment of Homosexuality. The document argued that homosexual orientation is "not self-chosen and ... cannot be changed," and that homosexual Catholics should be accepted without reservation. He also voted yes for the document "Dealing with Gender Diversity." It asked bishops …بیہ
