Archbishop Bernard Longley of Birmingham, UK, has granted in-principle permission for two celebrations of Mass according to the medieval Sarum Use in his archdiocese. In a letter dated 6 October, the Archbishop approved the proposal, subject to further written permissions from the celebrating priests and those responsible for the venues. The Sarum Use is a medieval form of the Roman Catholic liturgy that developed in Salisbury, England, in the 11th century. Its name comes from Sarum, the Latin name for Salisbury. Similar to the Traditional Latin Mass, it has distinctive prayers, chants, vestments and a liturgical calendar. The Masses could take place in 2027.
Two Latin Masses will be permitted in the Birmingham Archdiocese. (We need permanent Masses...)
“Depending on all these factors, the pope will also adjust his pontificate, if it needs to be adjusted,” Cardinal Pietro Parolin told reporters in Rome, hours after visiting the 71-year-old pontiff at Gemelli Hospital. Parolin said the Nov. 6 to 17 journey to Uruguay, Argentina and Peru “will depend on the doctors.” The Vatican has not said what stage the cancer is in, or whether the lymph nodes removed during Tuesday’s operation were clear.

Archbishop Vigano exposes Pope Francis/Bergoglio's deception: The deception consists in making coincide the two terms evangelization and proselytism. Bergoglio, with deceit, played on this identification, attributing to the mandate to evangelize the odious characteristics of proselytism: arrogance, violence, lack of respect for the other. Scripture tells us: Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of he Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. [Matthew 28:19], Then he said to them, “Go forth into the whole world and proclaim the gospel to all creation. Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved; whoever does not believe will be condemned. [Mk 16:165-16]

An estimated 2.3 million faithful gathered in Belém, Brazil, on 11 October for the 234th Círio de Nazaré, one of the world’s largest religious processions. The 3.6-kilometre pilgrimage lasted five hours, with some devotees walking on their knees. Among them was a young man giving thanks after his mother was spared a threatened foot amputation.
The shooting comes amid continuing concerns over gun violence at US schools. In August 2025, a gunman opened fire on children attending Mass at Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis, Minnesota, killing two students, aged eight and ten, and injuring 17 other people before taking his own life.
Saint of the Day: October 16 - Saint Gall, Abbot Also known as Callo Chelleh Gaaech Gallen Gallo Gallonus Gallunus Gallus Gilianus Memorial 16 October Profile Younger brother of SaintDeicola. Studied at Bangor Abbey under SaintComgall of Bangor and SaintColumba. Bible scholar. Priest. One of the twelve who accompanied SaintColumbanus to France and helped found Luxeuil Abbey. He followed Columbanus into exile in 610 and then to Austrasia, where he preached with little success around Lake Zurich, and near Bregenz. Illness forced Gall to leave Columbanus‘s party in 612, though some say the leader suspected Gall of malingering, and imposed a penance on him, which Gall faithfully observed, of not celebrating Mass during Columba‘s life. When he recovered, Gall lived as a hermit on the Steinach River, attracting disciples. Saint Gall Monastery occupied this site, becoming a center of literature, the arts, and music, though legend to the contrary, Saint Gall did not…Suli
Saint of the Day: October 16th - Saint Gall, Abbot. Butler'sLIvesoftheSaints A.D. 646 Among the great number of eminent disciples which Saint Columban left imitators of his heroic virtues, none seems to have been more famous than Saint Gall. He was born in Ireland soon after the middle of the sixth century, of parents who were conspicuous both for their piety and for their riches, and the rank which they held among the nobility. By them he was offered to God from his birth, and by their care was educated in the great monastery of Benchor, under the direction of the holy abbots Saint Comgal and Saint Columban. Studies, especially of sacred learning, flourished in this house, and Saint Gall was well versed in grammar, poetry, and the holy scriptures. When Saint Columban left Ireland, Saint Gall was one of those twelve who accompanied him into England, and afterwards into France, where they arrived in 585. They were courteously received by Sigebert, the pious king of Austrasia and Burgundy …Suli
“We cannot continue with the Novus Ordo – we cannot,” Bishop Athanasius Schneider told the Catholic Herald on October 13. He denounced “serious doctrinal defects” and “very clear Protestant tendencies” in the new Mass. Praising the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (FSSPX) as a “work of Divine Providence,” he accused the Vatican of a partial “hostile takeover” by forces seeking to transform Catholicism into a religion adapted to modern fashions. He compared the Church’s current doctrinal and liturgical crisis to the exile of the Avignon Papacy.
After the Ottaviani Intervention, who, back in 1969, denounced what Bishop Schneider today describes in the very same terms: "serious doctrinal defects" and "very clear protestant tendencies," I say to Bishop Schneider: It is never too late to convert to the Catholic Church and renounce the conciliar-synodal church.
Bishop Erik Varden of Trondheim, Norway, wrote on October 15 about the Vatican’s Amoris Laetitia conference. Regarding Holy Communion for adulterers, he stated: “Concerning ‘irregular’ relationships, I find our Catholic communities normally embrace these maturely and well. It can be liberating for persons in such situations to be in a setting where their ‘irregularity’ is acknowledged, not relativised.” He cited the allegedly “many” faithful he knows who seek a blessing at Communion Sunday after Sunday, aware they cannot receive the sacrament. Such prolonged “sacramental exile” can prepare a homecoming: “Christ gave us his rigorous commandments to educate us and to liberate us from ourselves.”

Philippians 3:18-19 Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition For many walk, of whom I have told you often (and now tell you weeping), that they are enemies of the cross of Christ; Whose end is destruction; whose God is their belly; and whose glory is in their shame; who mind earthly things.
Pope Pius XI denounced the socialist system as a “threatening danger that seeks to overthrow the Christian social order,” which “rejects the wisdom of the Gospel and resurrects paganism.”
GOD certainly is Great! This is just one of the many people I watch who help the poor, homeless, veterans and whomever they can. There are even some who mow lawns for those ready to face hundreds or thousands of dollars in fines. Ready to have their home taken and so many more good people who really care for others. Thank you to everyone who came together to show David and his 3 children, LOVE. If it wasn’t for you, this wouldn’t be possible. You provided him the opportunity to work full-time jobs, donations to help provide his family a home, the funding to help support their transition and future, and lastly reminding David the power of HOPE. Lastly, thank you to Michael Rapino for reaching out and being willing to provide David a job to work with his team at Live Nation and helping ease his transition. Michael also has 3 children so this story deeply resonated with him, he texted me and was more than willing to offer a helping hand to David and his 3 children. Be kind and love always …Suli

Guardian Angels - October 2 Memorial 2 October first Sunday in September (in Germany) Profile The term guardian angels refers to the belief that each person has an angel who is available to shepherd their soul through life, and help bring them to God. Belief in the reality of angels, their mission as messengers of God, and man’s interaction with them, goes back to the earliest times. Cherubim kept Adam and Eve from slipping back into Eden; angels saved Lot and helped destroy the cities of the plains; in Exodous Moses follows an angel, and at one point an angel is appointed leader of Israel. Michael is mentioned at several points, Raphael figures large in the story of Tobit, and Gabriel delivered the Annunciation of the coming of Christ. The concept of each soul having a personal guardian angel, is also an ancient one, and long accepted by the Church See that you despise not one of these little ones [children]: for I say to you, that their angels in heaven always see …Suli
