An independent investigation has documented decades of spiritual abuse, psychological control, and systemic governance failures within the Benedictine Sisters of the Sacred Heart of Montmartre. The contemplative community is based at the Sacré-Cœur of Paris, France. Background and timeline The congregation, founded in the late 19th century in connection with the national vow and devotion to the Sacred Heart, is dedicated to liturgical prayer, perpetual adoration, and the reception of pilgrims at the Sacré-Cœur Basilica. In June 2021, the congregation initiated an internal review. In 2022, former members were formally included in the process. In February 2023, the sisters publicly acknowledged serious internal abuses, issued an apology, and requested an external investigation. The independent report, completed after 18 months of work, was published in January 2026. Scope of the investigation The commission conducted 159 interviews with current sisters, former members, priests, bishops …More
These “independent commissions” do not understand the meaning of suffering, sacrifice, and self-denial, and call all of this “abuse of power.” It is entirely in line with the post-conciliar church, which is trying to eliminate the cross from Christ's message.
17.01.2026 POPE LEO MUST NOT ALLOW THE IMPRIMATUR FOR NEW BOOKS ON VATICAN COUNCIL II INTERPRETED WITH THE FALSE PREMISE : RAHNER’S BOOKS MUST BE PULLED BACK Karl Rahner uses the False Premise and Inference to interpret Vatican Council II in his book, The Christian of the Future (1967.Herder and Herder, New York). On pp.94 and 95 he projects being saved in invincible ignorance of Lumen Gentiun 16 as being an explicit and known example of salvation outside the Catholic Church. He then infers that LG 16 is an objective exception for the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus. So EENS has become obsolete for him (pp.82-85). In this book made up of talks he gave in Germany in 1965 he criticizes the understanding of extra ecclesiam nulla salus ‘in a very exclusive and permissive way’. For him the Church is the Sacrament of the world’s salvation (p.8) and there is no reference to Ad Gentes 7 which says all need faith and baptism for salvation. So for him there is a new understanding of mission …More
Angelo Gugel, the longtime papal valet who worked for three popes, has died in Rome at the age of 90, reports Vatican media. Appointed in 1978 by John Paul I, the “33-day pope,” Gugel went on to serve John Paul II throughout his nearly 27-year pontificate. He retired at the beginning of the papacy of Benedict XVI, at the age of 70. Known for his immaculate appearance, he preserved strict discretion even after retirement. From the Gendarmerie to the Papal Household Born on 27 April 1935 in Miane, in Italy’s Veneto region, Gugel joined the Vatican Gendarmerie at the age of 20. After a serious bout of tuberculosis, he was transferred to the administration of the Vatican City State. Albino Luciani, his former bishop in Vittorio Veneto and a family acquaintance, personally chose him as valet after being elected pope. When John Paul I died unexpectedly on 28 September 1978, Gugel was among the few people present in the papal bedroom. At the Pope’s Side Around the World Gugel accompanied John …More
17. January 2026 17. January 2026 01/17/2026 Entire blog as a free PDF eBook. Three days ago, I published an article titled Colored Revolution, in which I discussed the CIA and Mossad’s incitement of demonstrations against the Iranian government. On Thursday, an article appeared on mintpressnews.com: Revealed: The CIA-Backed NGOs Fueling the Iran protests. Established in 2006, Human Rights Activists in Iran is based in Fairfax, Virginia, just a stone’s throw away from CIA headquarters in Langley. It describes itself as a “non-political” association of activists dedicated to advancing freedom and rights in Iran. On its website, it notes that, “because the organization seeks to remain independent, it doesn’t accept financial aid from neither political groups nor governments.” Yet, in the same paragraph, it notes that “HRAI has also been accepting donations from National Endowment for Democracy, a non-profit, non-governmental organization in the United States of America.” The level …
Cardinal Michael Czerny, SJ, 79, said that during the consistory on 7-8 January, he did not hear anyone say, "Oh, I’m sorry we didn’t discuss the liturgy". He told the Substack.com-account The Pillar on 13 January, that what Leo XIV will do with the Mass of the Roman Rite is "beyond my pay grade": "I can’t speculate about how he intends to approach the situation. But I can’t imagine a pope who wouldn’t want to bring peace to the Church. I think every pope since St Peter would want that," the cardinal speculated. In general, he found the consistory a "healthy" exercise. "As soon as we got together and realised that the first thing we would do was spend the whole afternoon discussing it, we realised we were already at work. People immediately switched into gear. All three sessions were good." "Not Possible Without Pope Francis" When asked if the lack of collegiality among the cardinals wasn’t the elephant in the room under Francis, Cardinal Czerny denied it, saying: “No, quite the …More

Isaiah 49:3, 5-6 “He said to me, You are my servant, in you, Israel, I show my glory.” The Lord speaks to each person: You are the one I send to deliver my message of joy and peace. 1 Corinthians 1:1-3 “To you who have been sanctified in Christ Jesus.” This phrase is interesting. Let us remain in Christ, in the Love of God, and observe our lives and those around us becoming clearer and more peaceful. John 1:29-34 “Saint John the Baptist: ‘Behold the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world.’” The Lamb of God, pure and spotless, comes to teach us to remain in the Heart filled with the Love of God. It is the Love of God in the Lamb of God, Christ, who purifies us from evil. Let us continue to draw closer to God and away from evil. Biblical texts: NAB-RE Normand Thomas.
Fri Jan 16, 2026 - 3:59 pm EST (LifeSiteNews) — Republican gubernatorial candidate James Fishback has pitched a unique proposal to curb the influence of the pornography industry: a 50 percent “sin tax” on income earned by OnlyFans creators. OnlyFans is a creator-run porn site that connects porn performers directly to fans, who pay a monthly subscription fee for content. “Creators” keep about 80 percent of earnings, while the platform, which launched in London in 2016, takes 20 percent. OnlyFans has exploded in popularity over the past decade. As of 2025, the platform has over 4 million “creator accounts” (not all of them feature pornography), and over 305 million “fan accounts,” with an estimated annual revenue of over $6.6 billion. Industry watchers and journalists frequently refer to OnlyFans as “the future of porn.” “My message to the owners of OnlyFans is get the hell out of our state,” Fishback explained. “I hope you get bankrupt. Don’t you dare come to my state and try …
Asked about the Mass in the Roman rite, Cardinal Jaime Spengler of Porto Alegre, Brazil, said that “the river doesn’t flow backwards.” He spoke with VidaNuevaDigital.com on January 16. The cardinal is president of the bishops’ conferences of Brazil and Latin America (CELAM). His main statement echoes the historically weak ideas promoted by Cardinal Roche at the consistory on January 7-8. Cardinal Spengler said, “Throughout history, the liturgy has undergone various reforms. The Second Vatican Council represents an enormous effort to recover fundamental elements of Catholic liturgical celebration. Nostalgic proposals do not help to promote what the Council identified as essential for the liturgy.” Furthermore, Cardinal Spengler offered a pointless definition of the Eucharist: “Liturgy cannot be understood simply as an expression of religious practice; above all, it is a vigorous expression of a lived experience of faith, both personal and communal - an experience of encounter with …More
