St. Catherine of Siena and the Reverence Due to Priests In this inspiring reflection, we explore the powerful messages God gave to Saint Catherine of Siena—a Doctor of the Church and one of the greatest mystics in Catholic history. Through her divine revelations, God reminded the faithful never to judge, criticize, or scorn His priests, no matter their human weaknesses. Saint Catherine’s writings in The Dialogue reveal a profound truth: the dignity of the priesthood comes not from the man himself, but from the sacred office he holds in Christ’s name. This video uncovers her heavenly conversations, where God speaks with tenderness yet firmness about the sacredness of His chosen servants, calling us to prayer, humility, and reverence for the priestly ministry. Join us as we reflect on Saint Catherine’s timeless message—a call to pray for priests, to trust in God’s justice, and to love His Church with purity of heart. @Boanerges Boanerges I am leaving a video or the dialogue of Saint …Bebree
The part of the faithful, God tells St. Catherine, is to weep over the sins of clergy who do not follow God’s will, and to call upon His mercy for them.
At the same time, He laments the many sins of faithless clergy, including promiscuity, lying with prostitutes, selling graces, usury, gluttony, avarice toward the poor, vanity in seeking high offices, greed for worldly riches, and, as He tells St. Catherine, many more sins far worse than what He describes. He tells her how abominable these sins are in His sight, and how deeply these ministers offend Him. Yet He makes it clear to St. Catherine that His people must give reverence to His priests no matter how sinful the priests may be, and leave the judgment to God
ST. FRANCIS PATH: CHOOSING CHRIST OVER COMFORT - October 4 SGNEWS-SG Francis Bernardone il Poverello Memorial 4 October Profile Son of Pietro Bernadone, a rich cloth merchant. Though he had a good education and became part of his father‘s business, he also had a somewhat misspentyouth. Street brawler and some-time soldier. Captured during a conflict between Assisi and Perugia, Italy, he spent over a year as a prisoner of war. During this time he had a conversion experience, including a reported message from Christ calling him to leave this worldly life. Upon release, Francis began taking his faith seriously. He took the Gospels as the rule of his life, Jesus Christ as his literal example. He dressed in rough clothes, begged for his sustenance, and preachedpurity and peace. His family disapproved, and his father disinherited him; Francis formally renounced his wealth and inheritance. He visited hospitals, served the sick, preached in the streets, and took all men and …Bebree
Leo XIV “largely continues the post-conciliar revolution,” Edward Pentin said October 3 at the Catholic Identity Conference in Pittsburgh. “Pope Leo… is very much a continuity figure, continuing the post-conciliar course mapped out by Pope Francis,” Pentin said. While Leo has “changed the tone for the better,” his improvements remain “largely symbolic and small scale.” Pentin said he has “often heard in recent months in Rome” that many around Leo “helped him get elected precisely so he might continue the revolution.” On Leo XIV’s emphasis on unity, Pentin said the pontificate has avoided many “neuralgic issues” by “essentially not talking about them.” He added that “what is unacceptable among the Church’s leadership is fidelity to the Church’s doctrine and tradition”. Pentin said some call Leo XIV’s priority a “false peace and false unity,” and cited two anonymous Roman priests warning against unity through silence about error.

US Bishop attends smudging ceremony. On July 11, the Diocese of Raleigh hosted its first multicultural celebration honoring St. Kateri Tekakwitha - the first North American Indigenous saint - at Holy Cross Church. The gathering included discussions, music, and indigenous dances. Richard Duran, a member of the Pascua Yaqui Tribe from Arizona, led a smudging ceremony, which the diocese described as sharing cleansing smoke “as an act of prayer and spiritual connection.” Bishop Luis Rafael Zarama was present and drew laughter when he said he would dance with his heart, not his body, because dancing to music can frustrate him. Smudging has nothing to do with St. Kateri. She left her indigenous community and moved to the Christian Mohawk community at Kahnawake, where she could freely live her Catholic faith.
The bishop of Raleigh, North Carolina participated over a shamanistic “smudging” ceremony to celebrate St. Catherine “Kateri” Tekakwitha, who rejected her native Mohawk religion. Pascua Taqui tribe member Richard Duran led the congregation of Holy Cross Catholic Church in Durham in a “smudging” ceremony in July. Smudging is a shamanic ritual that involves burning herbs and resins to “cleanse” a space of negative energy.

But while I was there something unexpected happened, something soul-shaking that I did not expect! I spoke with Father Gabriel Amorth, the world's most famous living exorcist. His words shook me as few things ever have! Father Amorth told me that we have but a Short-Time left before the chastisements predicted by Our Lady of Fatima begin to rip our world apart in ways we can hardly imagine! How Long? Less Than 8 Months! Father Gabriel Amorth told me that unless the consecration of Russia is performed as our Lady had asked that by the end of October 2015, the dark prophecies of Fatima may well come to pass any day after that! Why did Father Gabriel Amorth tell this to me? So that Our Lady's Apostolate will raise …Bebree
I pray every midnight 3 Our Fathers as The Blessed Mother told us to do and plead with GOD The Father to destroy all evil. Then I say an extra Our Father separate from the first 3 we must say for The Consecration of Russia to The Immaculate Heart of Mary to be done and said as the Pope was ordered to do it. I have confidence that GOD'S Will be done. And everything will be done according to His Will. For His Glory and for the good of the people. I accept and I never worry that GOD'S Will and His Great Chastisement that the world has never seen before. Or what His Will be for me. As long as in the end there shall be one fold and one shepherd. The one thing I dream and think of a lot. I have to correct myself. I say the 3 Our Fathers when I am able to. Which is nearly every night. I just want to be totally honest about what I say or do.

I have already spoken of the devotion of the ancient Jewish Church to the souls of the departed. But perhaps you arc not aware that the Jews retain to this day, in their Litany, the pious practice of praying for the dead. Yet such in reality is the case. Amid all their wanderings and vicissitudes of life, though dismembered and dispersed, like sheep without a shepherd, over the surface of the globe, the children of Israel have never forgotten or neglected the sacred duty of praying for their deceased brethren.

There is a lot going on around the world that we are prevented from seeing. Their goal is to make sure there is enough propaganda to hate Russia and Putin so when they start their next war, this time with Russia, many will be in favor of it. Using their paid trolls and bots to spread their lies and hatred around. --- But the majority of the world knows better. Just like the Iran war the US and Israel started. The majority of the world is totally against it. And knows why they started it.
Advocate General Laila Medina at the European Court of Justice has issued an opinion in a Belgian case that could have wider implications across the EU for how churches handle requests to erase baptismal records under the GDPR. She concluded that everyone has “in principle, the right to have his or her personal data erased from the baptismal register where the controller fails to demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override the interests, rights, and freedoms of the data subject.”

“In those years,” says satan, “I will make many revelations. (I.e.,False revelations through apparitions that are actually demonic.) It will be impossible to expose my language. I will imitate all too well the words of Christ and His revelations. By loading these souls, I want a lot of pious priests to be lost, to mislead them deeply into all these things. I also want to lose many souls (the same way) who are not priests. (Other religious and the laity.) If I can not lose these souls, I will (make them) lose their reputation at least, I will make them charges of heavy slander, I will make them denounce up to the point of counsels of human laws.” A possible interpretation of this text: in the years when satan creates great confusion in the Church, he will cause many false apparitions to occur to mislead even the zealous and faithful with high sounding mysteries. It will be difficult to tell the difference between a false message from the true ones as satan will mimic how Our Lord and …Bebree
many of her prophecies came to fruition And many have not. 1. They take our very own prophecies and use them against us. Most of the time with a twist of their own beliefs. 2. It is said, most do it for money, fame and attention. 3. Some "maybe" mentally ill. This is what Priests have said and come to the conclusion. Which I already knew and saw many years before any Priest started to warn us against them. If I can see those things, I wonder all the time why others haven't. It doesn't seem good in the end that they easily fall for such lies from such people. You will do what you want. Whether it is to keep going off on our Religious, or following these fake seers.

Argentine bishop, a Synod Father, punished after canonical judicial process over allegations of abuse. Auxiliary Bishop Ricardo Seirutti, 70, of Córdoba, Argentina, has been punished by the Church following a canonical judicial process concerning complaints from two adults over conduct officially described as “improper to his episcopal ministry.” Monsignor Seirutti also served as vicar general of the Archdiocese of Córdoba. Pope Francis appointed him auxiliary bishop in 2015. In 2018, he participated as a voting Synod Father in the Synod of Bishops on Young People. He represented the Argentine episcopate. According to the Archdiocese of Córdoba, complaints from two adults led the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith to order a canonical judicial process before the Interdiocesan Tribunal of Buenos Aires. The proceedings concluded in recent weeks with sanctions against Bishop Seirutti. He has been deprived of his offices as auxiliary bishop and vicar general. For five years, he is …Bebree

Saint Francis of Assisi: logic, calm, firmness, contemplation, purity, chivalrous spirit by Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira Francis of Assisi died on October 3, 1226, centuries after Saint Benedict (480-547), of whom he was a great admirer and fervent devotee. One day, he decided to visit the monastery of Subiaco to venerate Saint Benedict. This fresco, the work of an anonymous 13th-century painter, is the oldest representation of the "Poverello of Assisi" and is in the Chapel of Saint Gregory, in the cave of Subiaco. It was painted during the saint's lifetime, before he received the stigmata. This portrait of Saint Francis of Assisi is found in one of the caves of Subiaco. It seems marvelous to me! It depicts a man of about 30 years old. Assisi is in central Italy (Umbria), but in this depiction, he looks more like a Nordic human type; his physiognomy reveals something Germanic, slightly blond, with light eyes, and a slightly pinkish mustache and beard.

Gambetti Steps Down as Archpriest of St. Peter's Basilica After Five Years and Several Controversies
Confirmed: Pope Leo XIV has appointed Cardinal Mauro Gambetti, 60, as Metropolitan Archbishop of Chieti-Vasto. The move brings Gambetti’s tenure as Archpriest of St Peter’s Basilica, Vicar General for Vatican City and President of the Fabric of St Peter to an end. His successor at the Vatican has not yet been announced. Cardinal Gambetti's years in the Vatican were marked by repeated controversies, many of which were brought to public attention primarily by SilereNonPossum.com. The investigation was based on documents, photographs, videos and testimony. Among other issues, SilereNonPossum reported favouritism in personnel appointments - including the hiring of people personally connected to Gambetti. Other scandals included controversial expenditure, costly events and projects, and concerns over the maintenance and management of the Basilica.
