Commissioner for Padre Pio's Hospital: Leo XIV has established a Steering and Supervisory Commission to address the long-running financial troubles of Casa Sollievo della Sofferenza, the southern Italian hospital founded by Padre Pio. The body, chaired by the Vatican's economy prefect Maximino Caballero Ledo, holds full operational powers and reports directly to the Pope. It will oversee efforts to stabilise the hospital, which carries debts of around €108 million to suppliers.
Only Christ Can Heal Human Emptiness The gospel reading emphasizes Jesus’ message of serving others, contrasting with the apostles’ self-centeredness. True fulfillment and peace come from focusing on God and loving others, not on self-gratification. The devil’s promises of pleasure and excitement lead to emptiness, while God’s path, though seemingly difficult, offers true joy and purpose. Fr.

Austrian Bishop Rides Scooter Through Church During Confirmation: On May 24, Bishop Ägidius Zsifkovics of Eisenstadt rode an electric scooter through a church in Neckenmarkt during a Confirmation Eucharist. The scene was captured by a photographer and shared by ORF Burgenland on Instagram. The bishop explained that he wanted to make his sermon "relevant" to the young congregation, having been told that the children in the area are avid scooter riders. By incorporating the vehicle into the service, he hoped to use it as a means of explaining the Holy Spirit in a way that would resonate with them.
Screenshot Insta: Bei der Firmung in Neckenmarkt fuhr Bischof Ägidius Zsifkovics mit einem Scooter durch die Kirche. Er wollte die Predigt zeitgemäß gestalten und den Kindern den Heiligen Geist anhand ihres vertrauten Fahrzeugs näherbringen.
Stupid gimmick. Reminds me of the priest decades ago who rode a forklift down the aisle on Easter as a way of illustrating the Resurrection. But the message is really that the Church is for knuckleheads.
A Scottish boy stood firm and refused to kneel and pray while his Scouts group visited a Muslim mosque. Well done to this boy's parents. We Catholics must be steadfast in our faith.
Swiss Bishops Back Ban on "Conversion Therapy": The Swiss Bishops' Conference (SBK) has expressed support for proposed federal legislation criminalising conversion therapy targeting homosexuals. In a statement, the SBK "firmly" rejected such measures, calling them incompatible with "a pastoral mission founded on acceptance, truthfulness, and the protection of the individual."

Henry Nowak@EndWokeness on X, 20 May 2026 On December 3rd last year, 18-year-old Henry Nowak, a first-year student at the University of Southampton, was stabbed four times by his alleged attacker, Vickrum Digwa. As a Sikh, Digwa was permitted to carry a ceremonial kirpan knife. Perhaps this wasn’t butch enough, however, so he decided to complete his arsenal with an 8-inch blade or shastar (a Punjabi word for ‘weapon’ or ‘knife’), just to be on the safe side. The trial at Southampton Crown Court has heard how Digwa “aggressively pursued” his victim, inflicted the fatal wounds, and stood over him as he bled. In Snapchat footage recorded moments before the attack, Nowak taunted Digwa to say he was a bad man. Digwa replied: “I am a bad man.” He did not call for help. Here’s the problem for Nowak: he was white; his assailant was not. Which means Digwa was perfectly within his rights to play the race card and did so to maximum effect. When the police arrived at the scene, they handcuffed …
He was arrested for being a journalist recording what was going on Jan. 6 and also having a lot of issues with the F.B.I. Will he decide to go back home now? I hope he gets a large chunk of it. But I have a feeling the government will play their usual games. May 26, 2026

Jack Prandelli @jackprandelli The US Department of Energy just mapped every data center in America. This is what the AI power grid looks like. The dots are data centers. Yellow = operating. Orange = under construction. White = planned. The lines are high-voltage transmission 735kV, 500kV, 345kV the arteries that move electrons from generators to compute loads. Look at the density along the East Coast, Northern Virginia to the Carolinas. Then look at Texas. Then Northern California. The largest circles on this map represent facilities demanding over 5,000 MW of power. Single campuses pulling more electricity than mid-sized cities. Northern Virginia is so dense the dots overlap. Data centers cluster on transmission corridors. Not because land is cheap because power is available. When the line is full, the next data center goes somewhere else. The grid is the bottleneck. Every orange dot is a power purchase agreement being negotiated right now. Every white dot is a utility commission filing …കൂടുതൽ
Today, Father Davide Pagliarani, Superior General of the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X, announced the names of the priests who will receive episcopal consecration on July 1 at Écône. The dossiers of these priests were sent to Leo XIV. The four priests are: - Swiss Father Pascal Schreiber. - American Father Michael Goldade. - French Father Michel Poinsinet de Sivry. - French Father Marc Hanappier. Father Pascal Schreiber Father Pascal Schreiber, 53, was born into a Catholic family of five children in Aargau, Switzerland. After entering the Herz Jesu Seminary in Zaitzkofen in 1992 and continuing his studies at Écône, he was ordained a priest in 1998. Following ministry in Germany and French-speaking Switzerland, he directed schools in Mels and Wil before serving at the Swiss District headquarters in Rickenbach, first as bursar and later as Swiss Superior. Since 2020, he has served as Rector of the Herz Jesu Seminary in Zaitzkofen, Germany, overseeing the formation of seminarians from …കൂടുതൽ
There is something seriously wrong and no one is revealing the truth. YET! I can't see how anyone would think he is in great shape mentally or physically. Not only signs he is not well but his anger has gotten out of control. And falling asleep more than once. They are not telling us the truth. But that's no surprise. The administration tried to say his hands had marks from shaking hands too much. But both hands had marks on them. There will be ads so just keep scrolling down.

Abbé Michel Poinsinet de Sivry, who will be consecrated a bishop of the FSSPX on July 1, celebrated Mass at the altar of Saint Pius X in St. Peter’s Basilica on 9 August 2014. The Mass was authorized by the Papal Basilica, and he used vestments made available from the basilica sacristy.
En août 2014, à l’occasion du pèlerinage à Rome de la paroisse Saint-Martin-des-Gaules, M. l’abbé Michel de Sivry célébrait une Sainte Messe dans la chapelle de Saint Pie X, à la basilique Saint-Pierre. Il deviendra évêque de la FSSPX le 1er juillet 2026.
At today's General Audience, Pope Leo XIV urged priests - in words only - to respect the texts and norms of the Mass. The Holy Father reminded priests not to alter the liturgy “on their own initiative,” warning that such changes can create confusion among the faithful.
Cardinal Gerhard Ludwig Müller spoke to kath.net on May 26 about the episcopal consecrations on July 1 by the Priestly Fraternity of St. Pius X. Main quotes.. No sympathy for the FSSPX “They understand themselves as an emergency community that will remain at a distance until the millions of Catholics who have fallen into Modernism, thousands of bishops and priests, and the current Pope return to the Church which the Society of St. Pius X preserves as the holy remnant of the one true Catholic Church.” Can the Entire Church Have Fallen Into Error? “From a purely human and theological perspective, it cannot be the case that the two thousand bishops and all the popes who have gathered at the Council have been mistaken on dogmatic issues or have deviated from the apostolic tradition, with the exception of a single bishop who, through illegal episcopal ordinations alone, ensures the Church’s continued existence” No one has a right to become a bishop “Nobody has a claim to episcopal …കൂടുതൽ
The cardinal is sending a coded message. Read it from the last point backwards to understand what he believes: “All orthodox Catholics rightly say that the supposed blessings of homosex couples or couples living in other irregular relationships are objectively sinful.” So he is saying, the Pope, the Curia, and the vast majority of bishops are not orthodox. The SSPX and a minority of bishops are the remaining orthodox. “The Priestly Fraternity of St. Pius X would have to explain the difference between its own position and Luther’s statement during the Leipzig Disputation: ‘Even councils can err!’” The SSPX agrees with Pope John XXIII and Paul VI. The council was pastoral and made no dogmatic definitions. The disagreement is that the Pope, Curia and most of the bishops think that Vatican II overrode the dogmatic definitions of all prior councils – i.e. those prior councils had erred. It is only the SSPX who holds that the prior councils and pre Vatican II popes did not err. “An …കൂടുതൽ
[Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich – XVIII-XIX Century AD; born: Flamschen, Holy Roman Empire/died: Dulmen, German Confederation; Mystic; Stigmatist, Writer] 2.8 THE GENEALOGICAL TREE OF THE MESSIAH. I saw the line of the descent of the Messiah proceeding from David and dividing into two branches. The right-hand one went through Solomon down to Jacob, the father of St. Joseph. I saw the figures of all St. Joseph’s ancestors named in the Gospel on this right-hand branch of the descent from David through Solomon. This branch has the greater significance of the two; I saw the line of descent issuing from the mouths of the separate figures in streams of white colorless light. The figures were taller and looked more spiritual than those of the left-hand line. Each one held a long flower stem with hanging leaves like those of palms: this stem was crowned with a great bell-shaped flower shaped like a lily and having five stamens, yellow at the top, from which a fine yellow dust was scattered. …കൂടുതൽ
"Around this scene, and bowing in adoration before it, were, nearest of all, the three holy kings, the shepherds, and the apostles and disciples; farther away other saints joined in the choirs of worshippers. In the light from above I saw indistinct figures of Powers and Principalities, and still higher I saw as it were a half-sun, its light streaming down through the dome of the church."
"Above this symbolical picture of the Feast of the Immaculate Conception the tree of light sent up another shoot, and in this second crown I saw a further moment of the feast being celebrated. Mary and Joseph were kneeling here, and a little lower St. Anne, all in adoration of the child Jesus, whom I saw above them in the top of the tree, holding in His hand the orb or globe and surrounded by an infinite glory of light."
This dog is surely a spoiled brat. But I enjoy it. I have to lol sometimes they are so hysterical. I miss my cats and dogs so much. They were so entertaining and so much like children. We need to get Walter that lobster immediately!
I have to laugh out loud too! They have so much intelligence and emotion and I don't think we begin to understand it all. Thank you dear God for these animals.
Cardinal Péter Erdő, 73, made his first public appearance in more than three months after serious health complications, including multiple surgeries and a stroke. He attended but did not celebrate Pentecost Sunday Mass in Esztergom, Hungary. The faithful welcomed him with applause and prayers for his continued recovery.
Több mint három hónap után újra a hívek között – Erdő Péter bíboros is jelen volt a pünkösdvasárnapi ünnepi szentmisén az esztergomi bazilikában.
I really like his smarts, he has a PHD in theology and has the ability to answer questions with unusual intelligence and understanding. He is just all around excellent.
