On 30 March, Pope Leo XIV appointed Archbishop Paolo Rudelli as Substitute for General Affairs of the Secretariat of State, making him the Vatican’s third most senior official. Born in Gazzaniga, Italy in 1970, Monsignor Rudelli was ordained to the priesthood in 1995. He studied at the Pontifical Gregorian University and joined the Vatican diplomatic service in 2001. After serving in nunciatures in Ecuador and Poland, he worked in the Secretariat of State before being appointed Permanent Observer to the Council of Europe from 2014 to 2019. In 2019, Pope Francis personally consecrated him as a bishop and appointed him as Apostolic Nuncio. He served as Nuncio to Zimbabwe (2020–2023) and to Colombia (2023–2026). As a senior Vatican diplomat, Monsignor Rudelli is accustomed to maintaining message discipline and avoiding polarising issues. "Follow Francis' Synodal Path!" Across Zimbabwe and Colombia, Nuncio Rudelli presents a vision of the Church in the Francis era. In a 2023 address to …Ibindi
"When Pope Francis proposes fraternity as the foundation of social friendship and the pursuit of the common good, we could say that he proposes fraternity as the foundation of a universal ethic," Archbishop Rudelli said.

Gethsemane in Jerusalem is the place where the Passion of Christ began. In this short video, you see the olive garden, the Basilica of the Agony, and the stone venerated as the place where Jesus prayed in deep agony before his arrest and crucifixion. Gethsemane - Where the Passion of Christ Began
The Garden of Gethsemane was purchased in 1681 by three brothers, Bosniak Croats from Sarajevo — Pavao, Antun, and Jakov Branković. They bought the land from its then Ottoman owners and, out of deep devotion, donated it to the Franciscan Custody of the Holy Land. Since then, the Franciscans have cared for this sacred place, preserving it for Christians around the world.
Od sveg hodočašća kroz Svetu Zemlju, prije 13 godina, što je doista kao da hodimo kroz peto Evanđelje... neuporedivo me je se dojmio dodir kamena u Getsemanskom vrtu. Kada sam stavio ruku na taj kamen na kojem je Isusova Muka počela bijah potrešen i duboko ganut, što nikako riječima ne bih uspio objasniti.
Just another bone. How about you get rid of the satanist in our schools? How about stopping them from teaching children about it after school? How about kicking them out or banning them in the US as Russia has done. How about putting strict laws like Russia has on gays ? NO? Nor will you see anything of significance like that be done. Just a few bones here and there. And such tiny bones no less.
Dr. Simon Goddek @goddek MEANWHILE IN GERMANY: Former FDP MP and Israel lobbyist Hartmut Ebbing was caught with child sexual abuse videos. He asked the court for a secret trial to protect the German-Israeli Society (DIG), where he was treasurer. The court agreed. He got a suspended sentence. Later convicted of abusing a 7-year-old. Only then did he resign, after nearly a year managing DIG funds, including German taxpayer money. Both FDP and DIG claimed they “knew nothing.”
CALL TO ACTION: Tell President Trump, your Congressional Rep, & your Senators that you don't support American boots on the ground in Iran. White House Comment Line: (202) 456-1111 & Congress Switchboard: (202) 224-3121 . This is how We the People make our voices heard.
Good idea but trump already said, I will do what I want. I don't need them (his own base). All of American can call all day and every day. They will do what they want.

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.
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 …Ibindi

Stop BBC Trans Indoctrination of Children You may have noticed that the BBC is increasingly pushing LGBT ideology, especially transgenderism, into programmes watched by children. SIX YEARS WITH MILES CHRISTI. From introducing trans characters into hugely popular shows like Doctor Who to producing programmes focused on how “positive” it is to be a trans teenager, to putting Drag Queens on Strictly. There was even a segment on The Unshockable Dr Ronx, discussing how to breast bind “safely”. THREE YEARS WITH “SUPER OMNIA VERITAS”. Yes, you read that right! The BBC is encouraging young girls to bind their breasts. Not only are they trying to indoctrinate, but they are also teaching children how to self-harm. The BBC is legally required to remain impartial, yet it is promoting one side of a highly contested issue. Frankly, the BBC is outright lying to our children. Impressionable children and teenagers are being exposed to messaging that influences how they view their identity, their …Ibindi
Goku @ProjectGokuu Dr. Roger Seheult just revealed one of the biggest studies on sunlight. A massive Swedish study followed 30,000 women for over 20 years and found that those who actively sought sun exposure had dramatically lower death rates from cancer, heart disease, and all causes. The shocking part? Sun avoiders had roughly double the overall mortality. Even heavy smokers who got plenty of sun had similar death rates to non-smokers who avoided it. Sunlight appears to extend life through vitamin D, nitric oxide, and immune support - yet we're still told to hide from it. Are you getting enough sun? — Dr. Roger Seheult (@RogerSeheult) on Steven Bartlett’s (@StevenBartlett) DOAC podcast
During the January consistory, Leo XIV told Cardinal Jean-Marc Aveline of Marseille, France, of his wish to explore avenues for resolving the tensions surrounding the Roman rite, La-croix.com reports, citing anonymous sources. One bishop, who also wished to remain anonymous, said that Leo XIV is allegedly "extremely interested in the question and asked us to think something through". Another bishop, who has spoken with Leo XIV about the Roman rite, said that "for the Pope, what is done in France serves as a model" for other countries. "It is the first time I have heard so clearly that the subject must be addressed at a theological level and not just in a pastoral and emotional way," he added. Another anonymous bishop, from the southeast, said: "Behind the attraction to beauty and the sacred, there is a whole theological debate that some do not perceive: a distant God versus a God who draws near - encompassing a whole relationship with the world, freedom of conscience and interreligious …Ibindi
The cancellation of the second World Children’s Day follows another decision made in February that brought a structural change by placing the initiative under the integrated management of the Roman Curia. Leo XIV dissolved the Pontifical Commission for World Children’s Day, a body created in 2024 by his predecessor, Pope Francis, for organizational matters. As a result, the president, vice president, and all members of the body — including Father Enzo Fortunato, who had served as president of the committee — automatically ceased their functions.
