Monsignor Edgar Peña Parra, the deputy in the Secretariat of State, is set to take up the post as Nuncio for Italy, as previously known. Nico Spuntoni reports on IlGiornale.it today that the Italian Foreign Ministry has given the go-ahead for the appointment. He adds that Leo XIV has already decided who will take his place: Monsignor Paolo Rudelli, the current Nuncio to Colombia. In July 2019, Archbishop Carlo Viganò accused Monsignor Peña Parra of being a homosexual, who had seduced two underage men in September 1990 and that he was involved in the mysterious deaths of two young men by electric discharge at Lake Maracaibo in August 1992. Who is the reportedly promoted Archbishop Rudelli? Monsignor Rudelli served as the Holy See's Permanent Representative to the Council of Europe from 2014 to 2019. In 2019, Pope Francis appointed him as a bishop and ordained him personally. He became Nuncio in Zimbabwe in 2020 and in Colombia in 2023.

'There, the associates of his wretchedness, far from alleviating the lot of the damned soul, will make it more intolerable for him.'

From Poland to the US, Churches Face Growing Threats | Shalom World Two Catholic churches–one in Poland and another in the United States–were targeted in acts of vandalism on March 18, underscoring a troubling pattern of attacks on sacred spaces. In Poland, a 33-year-old man entered a church, desecrated the altar by spitting on it, and threw a cross to the ground. In the United States, a church at Gesu Parish on the campus of Marquette University in Milwaukee was also vandalized. Such incidents are not isolated. Across the world, churches increasingly face vandalism, arson, and destruction, often driven by hostility, misunderstanding, or social unrest. These attacks not only affect physical structures but also impact the faith and unity of the communities that gather in these sacred places. In the face of such acts, the response of the faithful remains rooted in prayer. Let us pray not only for the protection of churches everywhere, but also for those who commit these acts–that their …Okunengi
The mantle of St Joseph is shown only twice a year in Rome
Rome Marked St. Joseph’s Solemnity With Procession And Veneration Of His Holy Mantle | SG News Vatican City, Mar 19, 2025 / 14:45 pm (CNA). Hundreds of people in Rome joined celebrations organized by the Parish Basilica of St. Joseph al Trionfale in Rome to celebrate the March 19 solemnity of St. Joseph. For the jubilee year, the relics of St. Joseph’s cloak and Our Lady’s veil were on display inside St. Joseph al Trionfale for public veneration for four days from March 16–19.
Yesterday, a memo went out to all Catholic school board trustees and directors of education from the Ontario Catholic School Trustees' Association, OCSTA. The topic: promoting and protecting Catholic education in Ontario. The directive tells trustees to do advocacy work for Catholic education because there is potential education governance reform. The memo states, "... we strongly encourage you to continue to reach out to your local MPP’s, Catholic School Councils (parents), Parish organizations and other community groups." Moreover, "We invite you to indicate to those you speak to of the crucial importance of maintaining locally elected School Trustees in each of Ontario’s four publicly funded school systems and to remind them of the 200-year significant positive difference Catholic Trustees have made in the lives of students, their families, our Church and the fabric of society." The memo urges trustees to make a case to politicians, parents and the community about the importance of …
Blackouts. Economic paralysis. Empty supermarket shelves. Petrol and diesel rationing. Riots. As oil prices soar to unprecedented highs, Britain is on the brink of the worst energy crisis in our history. The International Energy Agency has already described it as the worst-ever crisis to hit the world oil market. And experts across the political spectrum are warning this is just the beginning. Prices have already passed $100 a barrel but Iran yesterday threatened to wage ‘full scale economic war’ by attacking major energy facilities across Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Qatar in response to a missile strike on one of its major gas facilities by American and Israeli forces. The Iranian goal is to send prices soaring to $200 per barrel. After the Russian invasion of Ukraine when the price reached $120, international panic followed as Europe feared shutdowns across the continent. Oil is the lifeblood of the global economy. If it stops flowing, the inevitable effect is …

Cardinal Gerhard Müller repeated on Herder.de (Communio magazine) his attacks on the Priestly Fraternity of St Pius X (FSSPX). Main quotes, shortened for readability. - The FSSPX elevates its criticism of religious freedom, ecumenism, and interreligious relations to the standard of what is Catholic and demands that the Church admit the Council propagated erroneous and ambiguous teachings. - Certain formulations of the Second Vatican Council are given doubtful interpretations—for example, that Muslims and Jews worship the one God with us; some see in this a religious-historical relativism. The classical Catholic teaching is overlooked that human reason is capable of recognizing the existence and unity of God. - In doctrinal matters, these are, in my opinion, pretexts to avoid full submission to the authority of the Pope. - In my discussions with the FSSPX, I insisted that their criticism would only be justified if the Council had actually taught what they attribute to it. - Those who …Okunengi
Saint Joseph was declared by Pope Benedict XV in 1920 patron against communism and moral laxity. In 1949 Pope Pius XII issued the Decree Against Communism which excommunicated all Catholics collaborating with Communist organizations. Pope Pius XI entrusted the cause against Communism to St. Joseph. Divini Redemptoris is an anti-communist encyclical issued by Pope Pius XI 81. To hasten the advent of that "peace of Christ in the kingdom of Christ"[48] so ardently desired by all, We place the vast campaign of the Church against world Communism under the standard of St. Joseph, her mighty Protector. He belongs to the working-class, and he bore the burdens of poverty for himself and the Holy Family, whose tender and vigilant head he was. To him was entrusted the Divine Child when Herod loosed his assassins against Him. In a life of faithful performance of everyday duties, he left an example for all those who must gain their bread by the toil of their hands. He won for himself the title of …
Attention Novus Ordo Clergy Just like " In The Spirit of Vatican 2" gave you protection from condemnation, If you read the wording of “Amoris Laetitia” You will find that anything irregular is now to be supported, not as Sin but as a minor obstacle that can be overcome by calling for the Lord's Mercy. This is the direction of the Church - especially point #8 where private tutoring could be interpreted as Amoris laetita. And - anyone who opposes this Agenda needs to be ...............
Clergy – Attention First and Foremost – when the Vatican Special Investigation Unit visits , you can simply tell them to buzz off, That all your actions was in accordance to Saint Francis’ “Amoris Laetitia”. This is your get out of jail card for free. Examples: When your altar servers reach the age of 18, according to section 8 they are now fresh meat to promote this encyclical. Show the young lads examples of how Rump Rangers are made Bishops and with the proper frame of mind, they can also reach this level. If for some reason it is difficult for you to wait, you can always request an area of service where a younger age is legal , or overlooked according to the Civil Law. Remember – the Church Law is now dynamic! Female altar servers also need proper education from behind matters. Don’t forget the money for continuing education. Visiting brothels in Tijuana is a perfect way to gain experience in modern methods, so you don’t appear to be “rigid” to the younger generation. Some of …Okunengi
The rise of Freemasonry and the French Revolution marked the march of the Antichrist—or more precisely, antichrists—through the world. The beautiful human slogans of “Liberty, Equality, Fraternity” initiated a genocide on an unprecedented scale. The Vendée was only the bloody beginning, leading to other revolutions with millions of victims, up to today’s slaughter of unborn children—abortion—and its direct consequence, the killing of the elderly and sick—euthanasia. We must not forget that war still rages, devouring thousands of lives. Yet the Revolution also revealed the strength of the few true shepherds. Priests had to hide and risk their lives to reach the faithful and offer sacrifice to God. Only a few, as always, but despite the threat of the guillotine, they did so. Now, during the apostasy, we hear demands from the clergy that people should travel 200 km or more to reach them. Of course, the only thing they risk is an inflated ego and perhaps a loss of income. Really? A good …Okunengi
The Evil Bergoglio and thewicked Prevost profaned St. Peter's Basilica and installed the Abomination of Desolation in the Temple. Prevost obstinately sins against faith and morals—facts demonstrating that he remains the same unrepentant apostate he has been since betraying God, and that he hates the Catholic Church and the true Catholic faithful. The sect of apostates now led by the cunning and wicked Prevost applauds those who blaspheme God and calls them "brothers"; the only thing they will not tolerate is if we worship God and denounce them. This constitutes another sin of blasphemy against the Holy Spirit—one that often goes unnoticed: envy of the spiritual grace received by a brother as a reward for offering proper worship to God. It was for this very reason that Cain killed Abel. God accepted Abel's offering of worship but rejected Cain's. In Jude 1:11, we read: "They have followed the way of Cain"—a description referring to lawless men who violate God's laws. The Apostle John …Okunengi

The day I asked my daughter to pay me for taking care of her children…she got upset with me. She looked at me as if I were a bad mother. As if I had asked for something unfair.—“How can you charge me for taking care of your own grandchildren?” —she said, annoyed. And I stayed quiet…because sometimes mothers stay silent so they don’t break their children’s hearts. But inside, something hurt. Because no one sees everything my body has had to endure. Every day I wake up early. I prepare their breakfast. I dress them. I take them to school. I care for them when they’re sick. I put them to sleep when they cry. While their mother works peacefully… I carry everything. And I didn’t do it for a day. Or a week. I did it for years. But now my body is not the same. My knees hurt. My back burns. Sometimes I feel dizzy. Sometimes I feel like my heart is going to burst out of my chest from exhaustion. And even so…no one asked me if I could keep going. Because when a grandmother takes care of …Okunengi

Today, Leo XIV published a message celebrating the tenth anniversary of Francis’ document Amoris Laetitia, which, according to footnote 351, "allowed" adulterers to grab Holy Communion. Leo XIV writes: “Pope Francis offered the universal Church a luminous message of hope regarding conjugal love and family life, which was the fruit of three years of synodal discernment [...]: the Apostolic Exhortation Amoris Laetitia.” He thanks the Lord for “the stimulus that has encouraged reflection and pastoral conversion in the Church” and asks God “for the courage to persevere on this path”. According to Leo XIV, ‘Amoris Laetitia’ has “strengthened the Church’s doctrinal and pastoral commitment to the service of young people, married couples and families”. He adds: “Amoris Laetitia offers valuable teachings that we must continue to examine today.” Leo XIV even cites the controversial Chapter 8, "inviting the Church to accompany, discern and integrate fragility (cf. AL chap. VIII)" and wants …Okunengi

We have a Liberation-Theology-indoctrinated cute & nice guy as pope, so he's much more dangerous than Francis, who was so nasty only his fellow travelers could stand to listen to him. I'm beginning to fear that he might just succeed in finishing off the Church as God intended it to be and succeed in replacing it with a "church" based on man's basest desires and dumbest delusions. Even those who I thought had the grit to never be taken in by (or acquiesce to) his dismantling of the Church seem to now be genuflecting before him. Definitely feeling more and more hopeless.
