"Fun Church" in Holy Week: Fr. Simon Teller, O.P., published a video on March 29 about the different ways people use palms on Palm Sunday. The examples include the deconstructionist, the artist, the hoarder, the tickler, the sword fighter, and the panda mode. Fr. Teller is a chaplain at Providence College in the United States.
I agree that this video is in very bad taste because they are mocking/ridiculing a sacramental whether they realize it or not. I wouldn't consider making a cross out of the palms "artistic" but it was probably the only correct or pious way to use the palm.
BLINDSIDE ALERT (Shortages Begin for Seafood, Meat and Packaged Food) Global disruptions in energy, fuel and supply chains are quietly building and when they land, it won’t be gradual, it will hit your life all at once. From rising diesel prices to collapsing fishing fleets and grounding of airlines with fuel rationing already happening, the warning signs are already here. Are you ready before it blindsides you?
Speaking to journalists in Castel Gandolfo this evening, Pope Leo XIV called on world leaders to “come back to the table” and solve their problems through dialogue (video below). "I'm told that President Trump recently said he wanted to end the war. Hopefully, he is looking for a way out. I hope he's looking for a way to reduce the violence and bombing, which would significantly help to reduce the constant increase in hatred in the Middle East and elsewhere." Leo XIV added, "Come back to the table and engage in dialogue. Let's look for solutions to problems and ways to reduce violence, so that peace — especially at Easter — might reign in our hearts." The Pope was also asked about his decision to personally carry the cross during the traditional Stations of the Cross at the Colosseum on Friday. "I think it will be an important sign because of what the Pope represents: a spiritual leader in today's world and a voice saying that Christ still suffers." When asked what he expects from his …Zambiri
@Renvoie les riches les mains vides Thank you again for taking on the Russian influencers on Gloria TV! I am glad there are others willing to fight for the truth of Our Lady of Fatima's message! As for @Instaurare Omnia in Christo's idea that "The Russian government tried to kick them out. But the freemasons used Russia's own laws to prevent it." It is naive to think the laws that promote evil in Russia are accidental. Russia is in fact corrupt to the core and merely deceiving the gullible Catholics. And here on Gloria TV all these Russian influencers can post are RT TV articles. Or they post something a Pope said about Russia as if that's a magisterial teaching! Or they quote a "prophecy" that isn't aplicable in this circumstance. They are bombarding this platform with disinformation. And when you quote a Papal Encyclical they just assume it doesn't have anything to do with the modern age. They are completely modernist on the subject of the "Errors of Russia." God bless you!
Pope Francis’ post-synodal apostolic exhortation Amoris Laetitia, published on April 8, 2016, was a “breakthrough” for the Church. This was stated by Cardinal Christoph Schönborn, 81, of Vienna, who had presented the document at the Vatican ten years ago, in an interview with Kathpress.at on March 30. In a footnote, Francis "allowed" adulterers to grab Holy Communion using the case-by-case trick. Cardinal Schönborn commented: "That Pope Francis addressed the question of whether divorced and remarried persons may receive Communion only in a small footnote deeply moved me personally." “When I take the document from my bookshelf or even just think about it, it still brings me to tears,” he added. For many people in the Church - and for him personally - the document represented a “huge sigh of relief.” The reason, he explained, is that Francis speaks “about real life.” Families in “difficult” situations should not be constrained or judged according to "rigid criteria". Instead, one …Zambiri
He tore up Jackie Kennedy's garden and thought nothing about destroying it. Changed the name of the Kennedy center. He seems to hate the Kennedy's. His hatred for them? Or someone else's. We may never know.
Yes Trump brought the ballroom reconstruction up when he was asked of how he felt about Charlie Kirk's assassination. I think there was a liberal comedian who was canceled when he made fun of Trump's response.
On March 28, a Lenten pilgrimage organized by the Priestly Fraternity of St. Pius X (FSSPX) was denied entry to the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Sorrows in Cuceglio, near Turin, Italy. Despite being announced in advance, the church doors remained closed to the group, which included priests, religious sisters, and families who had walked several kilometers in devotion. The pilgrims had planned no Mass or formal liturgy - only a few concluding prayers. According to the local newspaper La Voce, the decision to close the gates to the pilgrims was made by the rector of the sanctuary, Don Luca Meinardi, and by Bishop Daniele Salera of Ivrea. The newspaper comments: "A choice that inevitably contradicts an ecclesiastical vocabulary which, in recent years, has emphasized words like welcome, inclusion, dialogue, and mercy." #newsSuicuzlbcj
You can be sure that an LGBTQ+ procession would be received with open arms, just as it was at Saint Peters. But FSSPX.....horrors! The diabolic hatred for Catholic Tradition is manifest in this.
In the first video, I have no idea which country they came from. But I did see what he said from the people in Iran when an American was given food free to him because they said, he was their guest in their country. Then he invited they American to their home for dinner.
Cardinal Pizzaballa on Palm Sunday: “In this afternoon of Palm Sunday we gather without a procession, without palms waving through the streets. This absence is not merely a matter of formalities. It is the war that has interrupted our festive journey, making even the simple joy of following our King difficult.” “Today Jesus weeps once more over Jerusalem. He weeps over this city, which remains a sign of both hope and sorrow, of grace and suffering. He weeps over this Holy Land, still unable to recognize the gift of peace. He weeps for all the victims of a war that seems without end: for divided families, for shattered hopes. But the tears of Jesus are never fruitless. They open our eyes, challenge us, and reveal the truth.”
Nach heftiger Kritik Kardinal erhält doch Zugang zu Grabeskirche Eine Zugangssperre für Kardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa zur Grabeskirche in der Jerusalemer Altstadt hat am Sonntag für Aufsehen gesorgt. Der höchste Vertreter der katholischen Kirche im Heiligen Land wollte dort die Palmsonntag-Messe feiern, wurde jedoch von der israelischen Polizei angehalten und zur Umkehr aufgefordert. Dieser Vorfall sorgte für heftige Kritik. Ministerpräsident Benjamin Netanjahu ruderte nun zurück und ordnete an, dass Pizzaballa „sofortigen“ Zugang zur Kirche erhalten solle. Online seit heute, 7.21 Uhr Netanjahu führte Sicherheitsbedenken als Grund für die ursprüngliche Maßnahme an: „In den vergangenen Tagen hat der Iran wiederholt die heiligen Stätten aller drei monotheistischen Religionen in Jerusalem mit Marschflugkörpern ins Visier genommen. Bei einem Angriff schlugen Raketensplitter wenige Meter von der Grabeskirche entfernt ein.“ Zum Schutz der Gläubigen habe Israel Menschen aller …Zambiri
Jerusalem: Kardinal an Zutritt zu Grabeskirche gehindert Der höchste Vertreter der katholischen Kirche im Heiligen Land, Kardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa, ist von der israelischen Polizei am Zugang zur Grabeskirche in der Altstadt von Jerusalem gehindert worden. Der Italiener Pizzaballa habe in der Kirche die traditionelle Messe zum Palmsonntag feiern wollen, sei aber von israelischen Polizisten angehalten und zur Umkehr aufgefordert worden, teilte das Lateinische Patriarchat von Jerusalem heute mit. Reuters/Ammar Awad Mit ihm sei zudem der Kustos im Heiligen Land, Francesco Ielpo, gewesen. Der Franziskaner ist der oberste Wächter der Heiligen Stätten, einschließlich der Grabeskirche. Das Lateinische Patriarchat von Jerusalem bezeichnete den Vorfall als „schwerwiegenden Präzedenzfall“.

Think about that. Iran hides nothing while Israel and bibi not only hide what's going on there, but people are jailed for posting online. Iran has not hid anything from anyone so far. Which tells me, they are more trustworthy than both trump and bibi.
Conservative Bishop Robert Barron of Winona-Rochester, Minnesota, published a “counter-view” to the teaching that Judas has earned his place in hell on FoxNews.com on Palm Sunday. Monsignor Barron's main arguments for having hope for Judas' salvation - Judas shows repentance: "Judas, the betrayer, deeply regretted what he had done: 'I have sinned in betraying innocent blood.'" "This is not callous indifference or self-justification. This is a clear and honest admission of guilt." - The Church has never declared that Judas is in hell: "St. Pope John Paul II insisted that the Church has never made a definitive statement regarding whether any particular person is in hell." "Pope Benedict said that we should suspend judgement regarding Judas and commit him to the mercy and justice of God." - Suicide does not guarantee damnation: "We should not despair of the eternal salvation of persons who have taken their own lives.' 'By ways known to him alone, God can provide the opportunity for salutary …Zambiri
HEY BISHOP BARRON, Don't worry about a thing. Just think - in a few days, after having spent all this time during lent thinking about Judas, you too will have perfection as a Traitor! The 40 days in the dessert - the devil tried to unsuccessfully bring down Christ in Temptations. He was most successful with Judas during this same period. By contemplating and becoming one with Judas, you will certainly miss out on the Resurrection - just like Judas. There will be NO redemption for you - you DUMB ASS. Time to think about Yahweh, his Justice and infinite Mercy to those how repent, to make you a better Saint.
Four days ago, Pope Leo XIV praised Christian-Muslim “dialogue” during Wednesday’s meeting with the Programme for Christian-Muslim Relations in Africa. On Palm Sunday, dozens of Christians were slaughtered in Northern Nigeria.
Girls are hitting puberty earlier than ever before — and the numbers are shocking. In the late 1800s, the average age was around 16–17. By the early 1900s it had dropped to 12.5–13. Today it’s down to about 11, with some Black and Hispanic girls showing signs as early as 8, 9, or even 6–7 years old — the earliest recorded in history. Patrick Bet-David asked FDA Commissioner Dr. Marty Makary why this is happening. Makary pointed to the modern environment: constant exposure to substances and chemicals with estrogen-like binding properties (found even in river water) that partially activate estrogen receptors. He called it a “huge issue” and an existential threat to human development, noting the age has been dropping by about a week and a half every year for the last 30 years. He also mentioned that in Europe, where some of these exposures may be lower, puberty still starts later (14–15 in some cases), and that American medicine has largely treated this as a minor footnote rather than …Zambiri
To be clear, in the case of heresy it is God who judges it because the Catholic Faith is revealed by God. The Pope is in effect judged by God as a heretic when he rejects the faith. Any man can identify the Pope as a heretic freely without any problem in that case. The man is not judging the Pope, the Pope has already been judged by God. The man is simply expressing an existing judgement.

On March 30, Pope Leo XIV appointed a new group of members to the Dicastery for Promoting Integral Human Development, including bishops, clergy, religious figures, and lay academics. All of them are closely aligned with the priorities of the Francis era, such as mass immigration, "synodality", social justice, inculturation, and ecology. Archbishop Rogelio Cabrera López of Monterrey, Mexico Monsignor Cabrera publicly aligned himself with the pro-homosexual document Fiducia Supplicans. According to AciDigital.com (23 January 2024), he urged Catholics to read the document in a spirit of mercy and called for “affective and effective communion” with Pope Francis and his pastoral proposals . In his capacity as president of the Mexican bishops’ conference, he was also involved in submitting the "Mayan rite" to the Vatican for approval.
