"We have damaged the liturgy," said Cardinal Robert Sarah in a video interview with Le Figaro Idées (April 2). "It is too noisy. Too noisy. As if we were celebrating ourselves." He warned against reducing worship to mere "conviviality", insisting that a more sober liturgy celebrates the greatness of God. Cardinal Sarah also said: "Today, we practically never speak about salvation," and cautioned that "if the Church does not speak about the soul and what will happen to it after death, then it fails in its mission."
«L’Église a abimé la liturgie de la messe. Elle est trop bruyante ! C’est comme si on se célébrait nous-même. C’est devenu un moment convivial, alors que nous sommes là pour adorer Dieu, il faut une liturgie qui adore Dieu. On ne parle plus du salut et de l’âme !», se désole le cardinal Robert Sarah dans Le Club Le Figaro
Examine Your Heart: Where Do You Resist? The suffering of the Lord and the martyrs challenge the notion that God would never allow suffering. We must conform ourselves to God’s will, even when it contradicts our own desires, as exemplified by Jesus’ prayer in the garden. By examining our own betrayals and rebellions against God’s teachings, we can find grace and strength to embrace our crosses and follow Him. Fr.

Merkel redet sich stets raus und sucht andere Schuldige. Sie ist aber Hauptakteurin. Den Vertrag von Minsk 2016, der den Donbass hätte befrieden sollen, hat sie gezielt untergraben lassen. Mit Einhaltung des Vertrages gäbe es heute keinen Ukrainekrieg.

Solemn Procession of the Most Blessed Sacrament at the conclusion of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass of the Lord’s Supper from the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, Jerusalem, celebrated this morning by His Beatitude Pierbattista Cardinal Pizzaballa, Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem.
And yet in Iran they have The Blessed Mother with The Holy Ghost as well as Christ in their Metro Station dedicated to them. On the outside of the Metro, They also have the Blessed Mother Statue on each side of her are Catholic Martyrs who are respected and accepted. Right in Teharn, Iran!
At the end of the Mass of the Lord’s Supper on Holy Thursday, in the Archbasilica of St. John Lateran, Pope Leo XIV knelt in adoration before the Blessed Sacrament and incensed it during a brief moment of prayer before the Eucharistic procession to the Altar of Repose. The Pope appeared visibly moved.
If he truly loved Jesus, he would publicly renounce demon of pachamama, and correct all the errors he and Bergoglio made. Until then: he is an actor, pretender and an imposter!
5.6K views · 417 reactions | Have you ever seen spolia like this? Typically, the Roman spolia found in England’s churches is thin red bricks - made by the Romans and reused by later Saxon and Norman builders. However, nowhere else have I found such a magnificent example - an entire archway! Escomb is truly a hidden gem. This is one of England’s oldest buildings and has hardly changed since it was first built back in the 7th century. It deserve the title of “ancient” because not only was it built by the Saxons deep in the mists of the so called dark ages, but it’s also built from literally ancient materials, the stone carved by the workers of the ancient Roman Empire.

Processional departure of the image of Our Lady of the Sweet Name from San Pedro el Viejo, in Madrid. The statue is so large and the chapel doorway so small that the bearers must carry the paso out on their knees.
This morning, Cardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa of Jerusalem celebrated the Lord's Supper in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. He washed the feet of twelve friars. In his homily, he said: "There is a tension we cannot ignore: outside, the doors of the church of Holy Sepulchre are closed. War has turned this place into a refuge, an 'inside' cut off from an 'outside' weighed down by fear and strain. We are here, as within a womb of peace, while the world around us is being torn apart, and we wish we could change all of this."
Cardinal Pizzaballa today in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre: “We are in the place where a stone once sealed death. And yet today we are here to celebrate life. There is a tension we cannot ignore: outside, the doors of the Holy Sepulchre are closed. War has turned this place into a refuge, an “inside” cut off from an “outside” weighed down by fear and strain. We are here as within a womb of peace, while the world around us is being torn apart, and we wish we could change all of this. And yet, here and now, the Word of God places before us a gesture that overturns all our human ways of thinking."
Stone slab where Jesus was laid after Crucifixion | Shalom World News In the hushed stillness of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre rests a simple stone, revered as the place where the body of Jesus Christ was laid after the Crucifixion. Known as the Stone of Anointing, it stands as a silent witness to the love poured out in suffering—where sacrifice became the seed of redemption. Pilgrims do not come here looking for grandeur, but for an encounter. Tradition holds that Christ’s wounded body was prepared upon this slab—His mission fulfilled, His silence speaking louder than words. Over centuries, it has absorbed tears, prayers, and the weight of human sorrow. For believers, it is a stark reminder that salvation is not distant or symbolic, but deeply real and painfully human. Yet today, this sacred ground lies beneath the shadow of unrest. Across the Holy Land, violence fractures lives and disrupts the fragile rhythm of prayer. The land that bore the weight of Christ’s suffering now …More

Bishop Robert Barron left his diocese during Holy Week to attend a White House prayer event where President Trump likened himself to Jesus and Paula White praised him.

The Governor’s Gamble: How Slaton’s Decision for Clemency Sparked Turmoil in 1915 In 1915, Georgia Governor John M. Slaton found himself at the heart of one of America’s most controversial legal dramas when he commuted the death sentence of Leo Frank. Frank, a Jewish factory superintendent in Atlanta, had convicted of killing 13-year-old Mary Phagan, one of his employees at the National Pencil Company. The case, already inflamed by antisemitism, sensational headlines, and public outrage, became even more contentious due to Slaton’s past ties to Frank’s defense—he had once been a partner in the firm representing him. Accepting the jury’s verdict but uneasy about the evidence, Slaton personally reviewed the case and decided there was too much doubt to allow an execution. On June 21, 1915, just a day before Frank was set to hang, he reduced the sentence to life in prison. The backlash in Georgia was immediate and intense—angry crowds gathered, riots erupted, and effigies of Slaton burned …More
Sulaiman Ahmed @ShaykhSulaiman BREAKING: Iran's FM Araghchi on the Strait of Hormuz: It is not in international waters. It is the internal waters of Iran and Oman. The strait is currently open and is closed only to those who are at war with Iran. For many of them, especially those from friendly countries, we have put arrangements in place so they can pass through the strait safely. Some countries have passed through the strait after reaching an agreement with Iran. The Strait of Hormuz can be a waterway of peace, enabling the calm passage of ships from all countries. x.com/ShaykhSulaiman/status/2039345578287550503
THE MYSTERIES OF THE ROSARY Fifth Mystery of Light: The institution of the Eucharist. In the Fifth Luminous Mystery, “By celebrating the Last Supper with His Apostles in the course of the Passover meal, Jesus gave the Jewish Passover its definitive meaning. Jesus' passing over to His Father by His Death and Resurrection, the new Passover, is anticipated in the Supper and celebrated in the Eucharist, which fulfils the Jewish Passover and anticipates the final Passover of the Church in the glory of the Kingdom". (Article 1340 of the Catechism of the Catholic Church)
5 The Institution of the Eucharist. holylandrosary | October 16, 2009 Thursdays: While they were eating, Jesus took bread, said the blessing, broke it, and gave it to His disciples and said, "Take and eat, this is My body."

During the Chrism Mass, Pope Leo XIV breathes over the sacred chrism oil—a gesture known as insufflation. This ancient sign recalls Christ breathing the Holy Spirit upon the Apostles.
