Today, Pope Leo XIV visited the 'UN World Food Programme' headquarters in Rome. He endorsed a stronger international order and praised the work of the 'United Nations', including even within Catholic organizations. Key statements. - "Your institution’s commitment resonates profoundly with the Catholic Church’s mission to uphold human dignity and to foster fraternity." - "The Catholic Church is oftentimes a partner in collaboration with the programmes that you oversee and that you work in." - "A renewed commitment to multilateral cooperation is essential." - "In an increasingly fragmented and multipolar world, no single State can address global challenges alone." - "Lasting peace and integral, sustainable human development are possible only through the participation of all, fostered by genuine international dialogue and cooperation oriented toward the common good." - "Such an approach requires a firm political will capable of transcending short-term perspectives and investing in global …Zwiṅwe
Saint John's Eve - June 23 Saint John's Eve, starting at sunset on 23 June, is the eve of celebration before the Feast Day of Saint John the Baptist. The Gospel of Luke (Luke 1:26–37, 56-57) states that John was born six months before Jesus; therefore, the feast of John the Baptist was fixed on 24 June, six months before Christmas according to the old Roman calculation (ante diem VIII Kalendas Iulias). This feast day is one of the very few saints' days which commemorates the anniversary of the birth, rather than the death, of the saint being honored. The Feast of Saint John closely coincides with the June solstice, also referred to as Midsummer in the Northern Hemisphere. The Christian holy day is fixed at 24 June; but in most countries festivities are mostly held the night before, on Saint John's Eve. This holiday is celebrated in many places. Saint John's Day, the feast day of Saint John the Baptist, was established by the undivided Christian Church in the 4th century A.D., in honour …Zwiṅwe

Sinking Titanic Back at the Vatican: "We are human beings, not techno-robots," Leo XIV told the children of the Vatican summer camp today, encouraging them to limit screen time, pray, cultivate real friendships, and avoid becoming dependent on technology. The scene featured the Pope addressing hundreds of children beneath a giant inflatable sinking Titanic. The plastic 'bouncy castle' in the shape of the Titanic has been in use for several years.

Using a tragedy to entertain children, I find that immoral, imagine making a slide with the 2 gutted twin towers of the world trade center or a ride representing the atomic bombs of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

One message for Muslims, another for Catholics: While Pope Leo XIV described the Great Mosque of Algiers in April as "a divine, sacred space" where "God is present", Cardinal George Jacob Koovakad, Prefect of the Dicastery for Interreligious Dialogue, told AdVaticanum.com on June 22 that "Catholics should understand papal gestures in non-Christian spaces as symbolic acts of encounter and dialogue" and "not as approval of all religious beliefs equally."
After Leo XIV told moslems that mosques are "sacred space", Cardinal Koovad says that "Catholics should understand papal gestures in non-Christian spaces (Mosques) as symbolic acts of encounter and dialogue, not as a denial of the uniqueness of Christ or as approval of all religious beliefs equally."
The Church has “frequently wounded the LGBT community through judgmentalism and exclusion,” Washington Cardinal Robert McElroy claimed in a June 20 homily at the homosexual conference Outreach, held at the Jesuits’ Georgetown University. He pointed to "two developments during the pontificate of Leo XIV". The first was a remark Leo XIV made during his trip to Africa in April, when he said that “the unity or division in the church should not revolve around sexual matters.” Cardinal McElroy commented: “Too often both in magisterial statements and on the popular level, sexual sins have been condemned with an ardor that effectively places them in the eyes of many believers as the core moral obligation of Christians.” Leo XIV instead pointed “to the comparative importance of economic justice, war and peace, immigration and racism as key elements of the Christian moral life.” The second development cited by McElroy was the publication of the report of synod's Study Group 9 in May and …Zwiṅwe
"[T]he unity or division in the church should not revolve around sexual matters.” . I agree with this completely, however it is the fruitcake community who insist upon showcasing their respective highly disordered natures. They are the source and cause of the division.
Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Matthew 7,6.12-14. Jesus said to his disciples: "Do not give what is holy to dogs, or throw your pearls before swine, lest they trample them underfoot, and turn and tear you to pieces. Do to others whatever you would have them do to you. This is the law and the prophets." "Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the road broad that leads to destruction, and those who enter through it are many. How narrow the gate and constricted the road that leads to life. And those who find it are few." angelyelina

Sunday, 22nd June 1913 Jurors, Not Newspapers, To Return Frank Verdict, Declares Old Reporter Sunday, June 22, 1913 Writer Declares He Has Only Worked for Fair Trial and Fair Play—Race Question Is No Issue in Phagan Case—Rosser Not Writer. By AN OLD POLICE REPORTER. There were few developments in the Phagan case last week that to my mind were worth considering seriously or that threw new light upon the mystery. Perhaps it was because of this that a good many people wrote letters to "The Old Police Reporter"—some commending my articles, others condemning them; but in every case indicating clearly that the interest has not lessened. I observe that some of the State newspapers are publishing foolish little paragraphs, bearing the Atlanta date line, to the effect that the Hearst newspapers have been "bought to defend Frank." This is too foolish to notice. Still other newspapers are taking advantage of the silly season to point out various phases of the case that to my mind are neither …Zwiṅwe
I once heard a Priest say that GOD will show a preview of our life to our Guardian Angel. I think it was Father Ripperger. So not sure if he knows what he is talking about. It's up to the Angel whether he wants to accept us or not. I believe it has to do with free will. If it's true I can't wait to see this wonderful Angel who accepted me after seeing part of my life. I can't wait to see him to thank him. I thank him now and I also thank GOD for giving me such a beautiful and power Angel that he is. He is amazing!
The State is longing for an opportunity to eradicate Christ, will it be the Church that hands them the excuse on a platter? If the Sate can slaughter babies then they can slaughter anyone. The Pope’s action to excommunicate his own, will be a catalyst to ignite a world smouldering with a hatred towards Catholics? This type of hatred was recently witnessed over the division of the COVID injections. Catholics will smugly despise the SSPX thereby initiating a persecution that the State will finish. Sadly what Catholics don’t realise is that when the State takes over what the Church starts, then every Catholic is in the firing line. The price to follow Christ will be with our blood. Holy Innocents pray for the Pope and the Church “for Father they know not what they do”
The more I think about it, the more I expect that this will be the case. It might not happen until after a few more so-called elections, and after the woke generation descends even deeper into paganism.
The Revival of the Islamic Caliphate. For 1,300 years Islam was simple, the Islamic caliphate conquering other countries by violent offensive Jihad, and expanding their lands towards world domination. Today Muslims are in the process to bring back the Islamic caliphate, by empowering the Islamic Ummah and weakening the west from within.
The only war I can see coming with Moslems is with those mass imported into Europe by anti-Christian leaders. When Europe collapses and Russia gets fed up. If she is talking about Iran, the Shiite Moslem revival is a new historical phenomenon as they were not part of the historical Moslem conquests into Europe.
