A decline in religious vocations has prompted the Jesuits in the United States and Canada to restructure the way they train future members of the pro-homosexual order. The Jesuit Conference of Canada and the United States has announced that it will reduce the number of its novitiates from five to two by 2028. This decision was communicated in a letter dated 9 July and signed by the superiors of the conference's five provinces. Under the new arrangement, one novitiate will be located in Detroit, Michigan, serving the USA Midwest, USA East and Canada provinces, while the second will remain in Culver City, California, serving the USA West and USA Central and Southern provinces. Each facility is expected to accommodate up to 30 novices. "Running five novitiates takes an awful lot of high-quality Jesuit personnel," Fr. Joseph Daoust, SJ, superior of the Detroit Jesuit community, told DetroitCatholic.com on July 10. "Each novitiate requires three to four experienced Jesuits dedicated to …अधिक

French dioceses face a worsening vocation crisis, despite claims of improvement in seminary recruitment, Laurent Dastros writes on July 9 on Substack.com. Dastros notes that, as of 2026, three French dioceses - Aire-et-Dax, Le Puy-en-Velay, and Le Havre - have gone between 12 and 14 years without a diocesan priestly ordination. Carcassonne et Narbonne ended a 19-year gap in 2025 with the ordination of a 51-year-old candidate. Annecy and Rodez could join this list next year if they continue without new ordinations. Longer-Term Picture Dastros calculates that between 2011 and 2026, only three dioceses recorded a single diocesan priestly ordination: Carcassonne et Narbonne, Rodez et Vabres, and Pamiers, Couserans et Mirepoix. Based on the assumption that priests remain in active ministry for approximately 50 years, he estimates that, if current trends continue, each of these dioceses could eventually have only about three native diocesan priests. He further identifies seven dioceses that …अधिक
On 28 June, the closing day of Munich "Pride" weekend, the Cathedral of Munich, Germany, hosted its first Christopher Street Day (CSD) Youth Liturgy. The liturgy included scripture readings, prayers, music and personal blessings. The event was organised jointly by the Cathedral Parish, the Catholic youth organisation BDKJ, and the Queer Pastoral Ministry of the Archdiocese of Munich and Freising. The organisers of the 'Catholic' cathedral service also participated in the Munich homosex march. BDKJ members marched carrying a large rainbow banner bearing the words 'Love is no sin'. They also carried a large orange banner depicting Jesus Christ with the slogan 'Jesus would dance with us at CSD!'. Both banners displayed the BDKJ logo to identify them as part of the organisation's official participation in the homosex march. Picture: AI, #newsXyryhufnmj
The Roman Rite Revived a Church Planned for Demolition: The church St. Francis de Sales in St. Louis, Missouri, was facing demolition after its parish closed in 2005. Instead, then-Archbishop Raymond Leo Burke of St. Louis entrusted it to the Institute of Christ the King Sovereign Priest. The Roman rite has been celebrated ever since. Today, the church regularly attracts more than 700 worshippers each Sunday, many of whom are young adults and families.

What rubbish. The SSPX is not in schism. The Vatican hierarchy are the schismatics. They can worship pagan idols in public, allow Chinese consecrations without papal approval, promote synodal heresy, ratify adultery, bless schismatic Anglican false bishops, but somehow the SSPX are the bad guys? I don’t think so Father Murray. You are WAY off the mark.

Eric Daugherty @EricLDaugh REP. CHIP ROY ERUPTS AND HE NAILED IT! "PAUSE IMMIGRATION! Just STOP IT! Stop ALL immigration!" "The United States Supreme Court, manufacturing out of thin air, a complete ABOMINATION of a ruling by the Chief Justice, suggesting that you can simply become a citizen from being born on dirt, thereby validating the abhorrent practice of baby factories and moving people here to be born to be able to become a citizen, leaving us under no choice but to do what we must do to say, pause immigration!" "Because if it's going to be exploited for people to come here when they're pregnant, to allow somebody who's working for the Chinese Communist Party and to come here and have children to become American citizens and then have our laws exploited like they were into the previous administration." "It is why this Congress should act to pause all immigration, this Congress should act immediately to codify what the president has been doing to close the loopholes under asylum …अधिक

13.07.2026 POPE LEO AGREES WITH ME: AG 7 IS ALIGNED WITH EENS . LG 16 IS NOT AN EXCEPTION FOR EITHER. VC2 IS DOGMATIC (AG 7/EENS) AND ECCLESIOCENTRIC (AG7/EENS). Pope Leo is aligned doctrinally with the SSPX General Chapter Statement 2012. ONE QUESTION The pope would agree with the traditionalists. He has to be asked only one question. His reply will be “Yes”. Pope Leo simply has to be asked, “Does Lumen Gentium 16 (being saved in invincible ignorance) refer to a hypothetical and invisible case in 2026?” He will reply, “Yes”. Ask any cardinal the same question .The answer will always be, yes. Ask even a non Catholic or non Christian the same question. The answer will be an obvious-yes. He cannot meet or see someone now in Heaven saved without faith and baptism and instead in invincible ignorance. A journalist would clarify, , “Holy Father, when Vatican Council II refers to being saved in invincible ignorance ( I.I ) and the baptism of desire (LG 14), the reference is to a hypothetical …अधिक
Poor grandma. Thank GOD for the Russian soldiers. I have posted several posts about the treatment of Ukraine soldiers and zelensky. Now hear more proof how cruel Ukrainian soldiers were. There were a few video's where some, very few Ukraine soldiers who weren't cruel and even half decent to the people. It's not all. but the majority of these men who were cruel to the people. This video is mild compared to others I posted.
In an interview with a teenager and her Aunt, they were trying to explain what really happened in Georgia. That it was the Georgian government who started the war and killing their own people. But fake news kept cutting them off, or going to commercial. They finally cut them off and said, they were done. But the Aunt and teenager rushed in, the Russian soldiers saved many lives. We thank them for all they did for our families and others. The Aunt got in. during one of their breaks. Yes! You don't want the people to know the truth do you! But in the end they said what they had to say. Just like in Crimea when they went their to find at least one person who was against it. They found NO ONE at all. With one man saying. President Putin is our Commander in Chief. They were not happy at all. Oh! Well.

Electroverse @Electroversenet Svalbard, a remote Arctic archipelago, holds inconvenient secrets about our climate history. A new study reveals it was up to 9C warmer around 10,000 years ago when CO2 was just 260 parts per million. Despite this warmth, glaciers didn't vanish. They survived, supported by increased snowfall. Svalbard then cooled for the next 8,000 years while CO2 kept rising. No tipping points, no runaway melt. Yet today's climate models project the same 8 to 9C of warming by the year 2100 (using the discredited RCP8.5 scenario), and predict widespread glacier loss. That directly contradicts the historical record. Even the study's authors admit the future may follow the past. Warmer, wetter conditions could bring more snowfall, stabilizing or even growing glaciers. The fatal flaw in climate modeling has raised its ugly head once again. It can't replicate history. And when the past contradicts your theory, it's the theory that's broken, not the past.
