Cardinal Cupich and Leo XIV Share Ecclesial Vision and Devotion for Francis: Pro-homosexual Chicago Cardinal Blase Cupich told homosex activist James Martin SJ on April 21 that he has a decade-long relationship with Pope Leo XIV and often borrows his language when commenting on political events. Cupich recalled that Prevost attended his 2014 installation as archbishop of Chicago. They grew closer when Prevost became a member of the Congregation for Bishops and later became prefect: “He had been here at Holy Name Cathedral a couple of times to visit with me, we had lunch here… We have a very good history together working on important projects and had a great devotion to Pope Francis.”
Chicago Cardinal Blase Cupich said this week that he has worked closely with Pope Leo XIV for years and often draws on the pontiff’s language when speaking on political issues. Appearing on Father James Martin’s podcast, Cupich said his relationship with Leo dates back to 2014 and deepened through their shared service on the Dicastery for Bishops. “We have a very good history together working on important projects,” Cupich said, adding that both shared “a great devotion to Pope Francis.”
Jeremiah 17:5 Thus says the Lord: Cursed is anyone who places his trust in human beings and relies on human strength while his heart turns away from the Lord.
2 Peter 2:21-22 It would have been better for them never to have known the way of righteousness than, having known it, to turn back and abandon the holy commandment that was handed on to them. What happened to them manifests the truth of the proverbs: “The dog returns to its own vomit,” and “The washed sow returns to wallowing in the mud.” Hebrews 10:26 Apostasy Remains Unforgiven. If we deliberately persist in sin after having received the knowledge of the truth, then there no longer remains any sacrifice for sins.
Latin Mass Returns to Basilica Santa Maria Maggiore: A Roman Rite pilgrimage, similar to the Chartres pilgrimage, began in Rome on 25 April. Over the course of three days, the pilgrims will walk 90 km to Subiaco. The route began with a Mass at the Basilica Maria Maggiore and passed through Castel Gandolfo.
@Michael Haynes on X: The Latin Mass returned once again to the Basilica of St Mary Major this morning Now pilgrims are on day 1 of 3, walking from Rome to Subiaco
Today, Pope Leo XIV has appointed Jesuit priest Joseph Samedi, 54, as Coadjutor Archbishop of Bangui. The appointment places Fr Samedi alongside Cardinal Dieudonné Nzapalainga, 59, who is only five years his senior. Background to the Appointment Cardinal Nzapalainga has led the Archdiocese of Bangui since 2012 and was made cardinal by Pope Francis in 2016. He rose to international prominence for his interfaith work during the Central African Republic’s civil conflict, particularly through the 'Plateforme des Confessions Religieuses de Centrafrique', a coalition of Christian and Muslim leaders promoting reconciliation. In recent years, however, local and regional reporting has pointed to growing tensions between the Archdiocese of Bangui and the Nunciature in the Central African Republic. The most sweeping allegations have come from journalist Jean-Paul Naïba, who accuses the cardinal of greed, financial misconduct, nepotism, and misuse of church-affiliated NGOs. Regional outlets including …зиёдтар
France has deployed a squadron of nuclear-capable Dassault Rafale fighter jets to Poland, conducting high-intensity drills that simulate tactical nuclear strikes near the borders of Russia and Belarus. The aircraft, equipped with the supersonic ASMP-A cruise missile capable of delivering a 300-kiloton payload, are operating out of Polish airbases in a move that signals a hardening of Europe’s independent nuclear deterrent. While the French Ministry of Armed Forces emphasizes the drills are "defensive exercises," the forward deployment into Poland represents a strategic shift toward a "European nuclear shield" that operates outside the traditional U.S.-led NATO nuclear sharing framework. Moscow has denounced the move as a direct provocation and "encirclement," as Polish officials reportedly explore deeper integration with France’s nuclear arsenal to counter the evolving threat from the war in Ukraine.

Pope Leo XIV has "decided to follow the '1988 jurisprudence'" with regard to the episcopal consecrations of the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (FSSPX) on 1 July, reports Rorate-Caeli.Blogspot.com on 25 April, referring to anonymous Roman sources. This means: "He is said to have already had a decree prepared that is similar in tone and content to the one promulgated by Pope John Paul II through Cardinal Bernardin Gantin, Prefect of the Congregation for Bishops, on 1 July 1988." The decree would declare the excommunication of the bishops involved, denouncing these episcopal consecrations as a "schismatic act". Excommunication of entire FSSPX ? Other Vaticanists have confirmed the core of the rumour. Niwa Limbu (Catholic Herald) reported on X.com that the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith is "preparing for the possibility of excommunicating the entire FSSPX, not just the bishops". Nico Spuntoni (Il Giornale) wrote that the Dicastery is "preparing for the possibility of a schism …зиёдтар

Anglican Lay-Archbishopessa Blesses at Tomb of St Peter: Today, Sarah Mullally, who holds the title of Anglican Archbishop of Westminster, visited St Peter’s basilica. She prayed at the tomb of St Peter together with Archbishop Flavio Pace, 48, Secretary of the Dicastery for Promoting Christian unity and blessed those present. Archbishop Pace crossed himself. On Monday, Leo XIV will receive Mrs Mullally in audience.
On 24 April, Bishop Joseph Strickland posted a comment on X regarding Pope Leo XIV's response to a question on blessings for homosexual couples in the Archdiocese of Munich during the flight from Africa to Rome. Monsignor Strickland called the distinction between 'formal' and 'informal' blessings, as referenced in 'Fiducia Supplicans', confusing because sin cannot be blessed. Likewise, the suggestion that there are 'greater and more important' moral issues than sexual morality must be understood with great care: "The Church has never taught that sins against chastity are of little importance." "Sacred Scripture and the constant teaching of the Church affirm that sexual morality touches deeply on the dignity of the human person, the sanctity of marriage, and the proper ordering of love." Leo XIV had said that there are much greater and more important issues, such as justice, equality, and the freedom of men and women and of religion. Bishop Strickland responded: "The moral law is not …зиёдтар
Bishop Athanasius Schneider criticised Cardinal Reinhard Marx’s instruction to priests to perform or enable 'blessings' for same-sex couples, calling it "completely irresponsible". Talking to Gloria.tv on 24 April, Monsignor Schneider said that such 'blessings' amount to publicly endorsing a lifestyle contrary to nature, reason and the commandments of God: "To make this almost an obligation is mockery and blasphemy," he said, adding: "It is a grave sin for a cardinal to promote such a thing." When asked about California Bishop Joseph Brennan's participation in an Anglican episcopal consecration on 18 April, Bishop Schneider described it as an ecclesiastical crime, as Monsignor Brennan took part in the simulation of an invalid ordination. Monsignor Schneider pointed out a double standard within the Church: "A bishop who participates in a schismatic, heretical and invalid so-called episcopal consecration apparently remains unpunished.

Prevost contradicts the Most Holy Virgin Mary, who revealed at Fatima that more souls go to hell because of sins of sexual impurity than for any other reason.
Apostate Robert Prevost endorses Bergoglio’s heresies: Prevost once again confirms that he possesses the element of obstinacy which establishes him as a manifest, pertinacious, and formal heretic. The Magisterium of the Church has decreed in perpetuity that the elevation of a heretic as Pope is invalid and null. The Church also teaches that the sin of heresy, schism, and apostasy separates the heretic from the Mystical Body of Christ—which is His Church—and that he who is not a member of the Church cannot be the Head of the Church. Apostate Prevost is a formal manifest heretic, … The Magisterium of the Church has decreed that the elevation of a heretic to the papacy, even if he were elected by all the cardinals, is invalid and null. Catholic Encyclopedia 1914 (Vol. 11, p. 456): “It is very clear that the election [as Pope] of a heretic, schismatic or woman would be null and void.”
At least nine scientists have mysteriously died in China as speculation grows over the deaths and disappearances of 11 American scientists. In many of the Chinese cases, the causes of death are recorded as accidents, sickness, or unexplained incidents. And while these explanations appear straightforward individually, taken together they are drawing increased scrutiny. One of the most puzzling cases is that of Feng Yanghe, a 38-year-old defence technology professor who died in July 2023. He had reportedly been working on simulations related to a potential Taiwan invasion before his death in a late-night car crash in Beijing, Newsweek reports. Official accounts state that Feng had been leaving a work meeting when the crash occurred at around 2.35 am. But speculation grew after his obituary described the scientist as having been 'sacrificed while performing official duties,' wording that some observers found unusual for what was described as a traffic accident. Further attention was …
"In truth, I am like this mighty lord, for I built myself a city, that is, the world, and placed a castle there, that is, the church. The name of the world was divine wisdom, for the world had this name from the beginning, since it was created in divine wisdom. This name was venerated by all, and God was praised in his wisdom and wondrously proclaimed by his creatures. But now the name of the city has been dishonored and changed, and a new name has been taken, that is, human wisdom."
[Saint Bridget of Sweden/ Heliga Birgitta; XIV Century AD: aged 69-70; Uppland, Sweden/Rome, Papal States; Widow, Mystic; Spiritual Writer; Founder; Patroness of Europe] Chapter 55 About how Christ is likened to a mighty lord who built a great city and a marvelous castle, signifying the world and the church, and how the judges and defenders and workers in the church of God have been changed into a bad bow. Our Lord Jesus Christ said: “I am like a powerful lord who built a great city and named it after himself. Thereafter, he built a castle in the city in which there were many rooms for storing all kinds of useful necessities. Then, when he had built the castle and arranged all his things, he divided his people into three groups, saying: ‘I am going away to a far away country. Stand firm and work manfully for my glory! I have made arrangements for your food and your necessities, and you have judges to judge you and defenders to defend you from your enemies. I have also arranged for …зиёдтар
Are you not aware that wrongdoers will never inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived (misled)! Fornicators, idolaters, adulterers, male prostitutes, sodomites, [effeminate] —none of these will inherit the kingdom of God. 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 Our Lady revealed at Fatima that more souls go to hell because of sins of sexual impurity than for any other reason. St. Thomas Aquinas: Vices against Nature Are Also against God St. Thomas Aquinas: 'There, the associates of his wretchedness, far from alleviating the lot of the damned soul, will make it more intolerable for him.' Jude 7: 7 Likewise, Sodom and Gomorrah and the surrounding cities, which, in the same manner as they, indulged in sexual immorality and pursued unnatural lust,[a] serve as an example by undergoing a punishment of eternal fire.
1 Corinthians 6:9-10 Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God?

PresidentDonald Trump’s job approval among Catholicvoters rebounded in April despite his public feud with Pope Leo XIV intensifying this year. The shift challenges assumptions that Trump’s attacks on a sitting pope would alienate a key religious voting bloc. Catholics—long a pivotal swing constituency—appear more resistant to Vatican criticism than many Democratic and Republican strategists had anticipated. White House spokeswoman Taylor Rogers told Newsweek in an emailed statement: “There has never been a greater president for Catholic Americans than President Trump, and his record proves it. “President Trump ended the weaponization of the federal government against Christians, proudly defended and expanded our religious rights, pardoned pro-life activists, stopped the chemical mutilation of our nation’s children, and protected parents’ rights. The president will never waver in his support for Catholic Americans and will continue delivering unprecedented victories.” Continue …
