The Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (FSSPX) rejected a Doctrinal Declaration proposed by the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith (CDF), which would have been followed by the granting of a canonical status, Monsignor Guido Pozzo told LaNuovaBq.it on July 7. A meeting took place on 28 February 2018 at the Congregation between Cardinal Luis Ladaria, then Prefect, Monsignor Guido Pozzo, and Bishop Bernard Fellay. Bishop Fellay said he would submit the Declaration to the FSSPX General Chapter, scheduled for July 2018. At that Chapter, on 11 July 2018, Father Davide Pagliarani was elected Superior General. In the autumn of 2018, Cardinal Ladaria and Monsignor Pozzo met with Father Pagliarani. Monsignor Pozzo on Fr Pagliarani: "He informed us that he would not sign the Declaration, as he considered it insufficient and inadequate to address the difficulties and critical issues raised by the FSSPX, and that Rome would have to acknowledge its errors." Why Ecclesia Dei Commission Was …Okunengi
If the FSSPX had signed that statement, it would have put the FSSP, ICKSP, et al. in a position to be forced to celebrate the Bugnini-Montini liturgy. "Even the SSPX affirms its validity" they would be told as the gun was held to their head.
Thank you Jesus for giving us Fr. Pagliarani. May he long serve as Superior General of the Society of St Pius X, and may he long continue to protect the authentic teachings of the Catholic Church,
President Putin with the French family at the awards. Pilgrims from France in Kazan Last week, Kazan was visited by French pilgrims who began their journey on foot in 2021 from Fatima (Portugal) to Moscow's Red Square with the aim of consecrating Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary and fulfilling the Fatima prophecy. Throughout the entire journey, the pilgrims carried a statue of Our Lady of Fatima, which now remains in Russia. Upon completing one of the most difficult pilgrimages of the 21st century, its Pilgrims' route: after the events that began in 2022, the border between Finland and Russia was closed. Therefore, it was necessary to go to Russia through the Baltic countries. I never knew that the families that were not born in Russia were eligible to receive the award. Maybe Putin also changed that as well recently. He has made so many changes for Catholics and others persecuted by their own governments. And also who are sick and tired of the evils allowed in them. He is such a …Okunengi
Archbishop Georg Gänswein hopes the restrictions on the Mass in the Roman rite will be lifted, he told Il Giornale on July 7. Looking back to Benedict XVI's 2007 Motu Proprio Summorum Pontificum, Monsignor Gänswein said the Pope wanted to restore “full rights to a rite that had never been abolished”: “His goal was to give it its rightful place again within the Church and to restore peace in the Church's liturgical life.” According to Archbishop Gänswein, Summorum Pontificum was not conceived as a step toward reconciliation with the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X. Rather, “it was directed toward the Church itself.” Benedict XVI was pleased with the results of this reform. “It was beginning to bear fruit. It worked especially well among young people, and this is evident above all in the steadily growing numbers participating each year in the Paris-to-Chartres pilgrimage.” Monsignor Gänswein added that these young people are not opposed to the Second Vatican Council: “Anyone who …Okunengi
Leo soll erst den Balken aus seinem Auge ziehen, bevor er anderen Sündern Schuldzuweisungen macht. Ich denke, bei Gott gibt es keine Halbwahrheiten, das heißt, wenn Leo der Stellvertreter Gottes auf Erden wäre, würde er folgende Sünden nicht begehen: denn wie kann es sein, dass Leo einen Pornobuch-Schreiber im Vatikan mit dem 2.Höchsten Amt beauftragt? Warum werden ausschließlich Befürworter homosexueller Bischöfe ernannt? Warum akzeptiert Leo die Gender-Ideologie mit den 72 verschiedenen Geschlechtern, wenn Gott den Menschen als Mann und Frau Geschäfte hat? Wieso unterstützt Leo die Zwangs- Umverteilung von überwiegend schwarzen und muslimischen Migranten nach Europa, welche in jedem dieser Länder Chaos, Unterdrückung, Mord und Totschlag sowie die bestehenden Kulturen in diesen Ländern zerstört? Wieso fördert er die „Eine-Welt-Religion“ nach denen alle Religionen gleich sind, wo er doch weiß, dass Jesus sagte: „niemand kommt zum Vater außer durch mich“.

The Episcopal church is selling its NYC headquarters. "Mainline Protestantism had always been dominant in America and robustly assumed it always would remain so, with or without any effort. It choked on its own over confidence. But in recent years the Mainline denominations have been joined by declining evangelical denominations." Soon Protestantism will wither away.
Jesus Christ founded only one Church. That Church, the Catholic Church will never cease to exist here on earth. The false churches are collapsing from within.
Tibetan Rituals in a U.S. Church. Worse than Germany: On Monday, more than 60 Tibetans gathered at Most Holy Redeemer Church in Hadley, Massachusetts, to celebrate the Dalai Lama's 91st birthday and mark the conclusion of the "Year of Compassion," an initiative of the Central Tibetan Administration. The event opened with a ritual in which participants chanted "Om" three times and tossed tsampa (barley flour) into the air. Attendees also made mandala offerings by bowing and placing a white ceremonial scarf before a photo of the Dalai Lama. The celebration continued with speeches, traditional Tibetan songs and dances, and performances by students from a local Tibetan Sunday school.

Bishop of Liège Wishes New FSSPX Priest Well: Bishop Jean-Pierre Delville of Liège, Belgium, wished Fr. Vincent Richter, ordained for the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X at Écône on 29 June, well in his future mission in Brazil and urged him to serve Christ "as an authentic disciple of the Gospel." His tone was firmer after the FSSPX's four episcopal consecrations on 1 July without a papal mandate, describing them as deepening the Society's separation from Rome while still calling for continued dialogue.
On July 6, Cardinal Gerhard Müller told K-TV.org that FSSPX confessions are illicit but valid. Now he has repeated his disagreement with the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith. Its explanatory note from July 2 had claimed that confessions heard by FSSPX priests are "invalid." "The note from the Dicastery, which appears only as explanatory notes, is unclear," Cardinal Müller told Andreas Wailzer on X.com on July 8. He added: "The authority to forgive sins is conferred by Christ Himself in the sacrament of Holy Orders. It is not conferred by the Pope through his primacy of jurisdiction. Orthodox priests, too, validly grant absolution." Müller continued: "The Pope can only prohibit the exercise of this authority. He can also reserve certain sins for his own absolution. One example is the sin against the unity of the Church, committed through an unauthorized episcopal consecration." #newsMpjletlqsm
" The document of Benedict XVI, Summorum Pontificum, does not create a new liturgical rite..." --- No, it was Montini with Bugnini who created it. Ratzinger just tried to save it by imposing a legal fiction of two forms of the same rite for ontologically and historically different rites.
Following the FSSPX episcopal consecrations, Philippe Darantière hopes "for great goodwill toward us on the part of the bishops," he told OsvNews.com on July 7. Since 2025, he has been president of the Notre-Dame de Chrétienté association, which organizes the annual Paris-to-Chartres pilgrimage, France. For Darantière, contact between the faithful attached to the traditional Roman rite and the bishops of France is "still tentative." It varies depending on the diocese and the specific circumstances there. "We do not communicate much with the bishops," he admitted. He also expressed his hope for "improvements in relations with the bishops, particularly in the summer, when there are many requests for weddings and baptisms in the traditional rite from the faithful who are attached to the traditional rite but who are far from their usual parish." Darantière is supporting Pope Leo XIV's visit to France in September. The association Notre-Dame de Chrétienté is providing volunteers and encouraging …Okunengi
Pope John Paul 2 is the only recent pope that gives a darn about abortion. His Evangeliun Vitea is the infallible condemnation of abortion equal in authority to all the Marian dogmas and the founding of the Catholic Church by Christ.

Some clarifications about a principle which seems ‘too good to be true’ – but is true, nonetheless. Introduction On the 30th June, the day before the SSPX’s episcopal consecrations, I published an explanation of why heretics are unable to excommunicate – along with a translation of CausaXXIV,Quest.I, from Gratian’s Decretum, which deals with this topic. Some of the texts which state this are as follows: C. IV. [Audivimus] An excommunicated person cannot excommunicate another. [Pope Alexander II writing to Bishop Valerius the Martyr] We have heard that Henry, called Archbishop of Ravenna, has attempted to excommunicate you. But since, being excommunicated, he could not excommunicate you …Okunengi
Some movies entertain us. Others stay with us for the rest of our lives. Hachiko: A Dog's Tale is one of those rare films that quietly finds its way into your heart and never really leaves. Its power doesn't come from spectacular action or dramatic twists. It comes from something much simpler—and much more profound: unconditional love, unwavering loyalty, and the kind of devotion that even death cannot erase. The film is inspired by the remarkable true story of Hachikō, an Akita born in Japan in the early 1900s. Every afternoon, Hachikō faithfully waited at Tokyo's Shibuya Station for his owner, Professor Hidesaburō Ueno, to return home from work. Then one ordinary day, everything changed. The professor suffered a fatal brain hemorrhage while at work and never came home. But Hachikō didn't know that. Day after day... month after month... year after year... he returned to the station, waiting for the person he loved to walk through the crowd once more. He kept that promise for nearly nine …Okunengi
Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint John 20,24-29. Thomas, called Didymus, one of the Twelve, was not with them when Jesus came. So the other disciples said to him, "We have seen the Lord." But he said to them, "Unless I see the mark of the nails in his hands and put my finger into the nailmarks and put my hand into his side, I will not believe." Now a week later his disciples were again inside and Thomas was with them. Jesus came, although the doors were locked, and stood in their midst and said, "Peace be with you." Then he said to Thomas, "Put your finger here and see my hands, and bring your hand and put it into my side, and do not be unbelieving, but believe." Thomas answered and said to him, "My Lord and my God!" Jesus said to him, "Have you come to believe because you have seen me? Blessed are those who have not seen and have believed."
Aus dem Heiligen Evangelium nach Johannes - Joh 20,24-29. Thomas, der Didymus – Zwilling – genannt wurde, einer der Zwölf, war nicht bei ihnen, als Jesus am Abend des ersten Tages der Woche kam. Die anderen Jünger sagten zu ihm: Wir haben den Herrn gesehen. Er entgegnete ihnen: Wenn ich nicht das Mal der Nägel an seinen Händen sehe und wenn ich meinen Finger nicht in das Mal der Nägel und meine Hand nicht in seine Seite lege, glaube ich nicht. Acht Tage darauf waren seine Jünger wieder drinnen versammelt und Thomas war dabei. Da kam Jesus bei verschlossenen Türen, trat in ihre Mitte und sagte: Friede sei mit euch! Dann sagte er zu Thomas: Streck deinen Finger hierher aus und sieh meine Hände! Streck deine Hand aus und leg sie in meine Seite und sei nicht ungläubig, sondern gläubig! Thomas antwortete und sagte zu ihm: Mein Herr und mein Gott! Jesus sagte zu ihm: Weil du mich gesehen hast, glaubst du. Selig sind, die nicht sehen und doch glauben. angelyelina
THE HOLY FAMILY DOM GUERANGUER Speaking the Gospel later of the life of Jesus in Nazareth next to Mary and Joseph, he describes it with these simple words: "I was submissive to them. And his mother kept all these things in her heart, and Jesus grew in wisdom, in age and in grace before God and men. Despite its conciseness, this sacred text contains a luminous vision of order and peace that reveals to our gaze, the authority, submission, dependence and mutual relations of the Sagrada Familia. The holy house of Nazareth is presented to our eyes as the perfect model of the Christian home. Joseph commands there with calm serenity, as the one who is aware that by doing so he does the will of God and speaks on his behalf. He understands that, next to his virginal Wife and his divine Son, he is the smallest; and with all that, his humility makes him, without fear or disturbance, accept his role as head of the Holy Family that God has entrusted to him, and as a good superior, he does not think …Okunengi
Beautiful. "Healthy lesson that we are offered here. God wants him to obey and to be sent according to the role and office of each one, not according to his merits or virtues. In Nazareth, the order of authority and dependence is not exactly the same as that of perfection and holiness. The same usually happens in human society and in the Church itself: if the superior must sometimes respect in the inferior a virtue greater than his own, the inferior always has the obligation to obey in the superior an authority derived from the authority of God itself." God Himself submitting to His Design.
