German Diocese Reduces to Just NINE Parishes

The Diocese of Speyer in southwestern Germany plans to reduce its current 70 parishes to just 9 large parish units. Bishop Karl-Heinz Wiesemann described the move as a “major turning point” that will require "courage" from all involved.
By October 31, the diocesan administration will present a plan for implementing the changes.
The new parishes will be led by a three-person team consisting of a pastor, a lay pastoral minister, and an administrative director.
Before a major reform in 2016, the diocese consisted of 346 parishes. These were merged into 70 larger parishes as part of the pastoral "reform" program.

Marekebisho Ya Fedha Za Vatikani Yashuhudia "Kinyume Halisi"

Mtaalamu ambaye hajatambulishwa alimwambia Edward Pentin (Aprili 27) kwamba marekebisho yanayosemekana ya Fedha za Vatikani yamefeli.
Kulingana naye, kesi kadhaa za jinai za kifedha zilifichuliwa katika miaka ya kwanza ya upapa wa Francis, ila hayakushtakiwa.
Afisi ya "Mfadhili wa Haki" huchagua kesi chache tu huku ikizipuuza zingine.
Msemaji huyo aliongeza kuwa, "Ingawaje hakuna mtu anayetaka kukiri jambo hili, kwa ufanisi tunashuhudia kinyume cha utaratibu wa marekebisho ya miaka mitano iliyopita."

Leo XIV Appoints Synodal Bishop: "Open to Novelty and Change"

On June 20, Leo XIV has appointed Rev Elímar Gerardo Carvajal Durán, 50, as Bishop of Puntarenas, Costa Rica.
Born in Grecia in 1976 and ordained a priest in 2003, Monsignor Carvajal Durán has served in various pastoral roles within the Diocese of Alajuela and most recently as Diocesan Vicar for Pastoral Ministry.
He is a strongly synodal, CELAM-formed, Francis-era pastoral organizer. His public record shows extensive commitment to "discernment", "accompaniment", and "synodality".
Strong Synodal Profile
By September 2022, Rev. Carvajal had assumed a leading role in coordinating the Diocese of Alajuela's Diocesan Synodal Process.
In a September 28, 2022 talk on the Youtube channel of the Diocese of Alajuela, Monsignor Carvajal uses all of the Francis’ buzzwords such as "the synodal Church", "the reality is always before the idea", “listening to the cries of people”, etc.
His Language Speaks Volumes
In a September 5, 2023 video, Monsignor Carvajal said that discernment and synodality …Zaidi

He needs to affirm the Creeds, Councils and Cathechisms in the original. He does not do this. This is a canonical issue. With Vatican Council II rational we can affirm the Council and Tradition. But the bishop, with Vatican Council II irrational cannot affirm both. A bishop who cannot affirm de fide teachings in Tradition which are not contradicted by Vatican Council II, cannot hold his office.
It is obligatory, morally and canonically for the bishop to affirm Vatican Council I
I only rationally ( LG 16 inviible.)

Father Karl A Claver

Novelty and change have nothing to do with GROWTH. One grows in virtue, while novelty and change can refer to compromising the Catholic faith.

Pongezi Kwa Miaka Kumi Ya Kuzaliwa, Gloria.tv!

Miaka kumi iliyopita, katika msimu wa vuli mwaka wa 2007, Gloria.tv ilianza kama jukwaa la kusambaza video na habari cha Kikatoliki cha kilimwengu. Mojawapo ya toleo lake lilionyesha jinsi wafanyikazi wa waavyaji wa Vienna walivyoshambulia wanachama wa pro-life waliokuwa wakiomba. Video hii iliweza kusitisha mpango wa kisiasa wa kutenga maeneo ya kliniki za uavyaji mjini Vienna na kupelekea kuhukumiwa kwa mmoja wa washambulizi hao.
Tangu wakati huo Gloria.tv imekuwa mtandao wa kwanza wa Kikatoliki duniani kote. Gloria.tv ni anzilisho la bajeti ndogo lisilo na wafanyikazi wa kulipwa. Hata hivyo, matumizi yetu hukua. Sava zetu mnamo mwaka wa 2017 ziligharimu takriban dola 20,000. Tunaposherehekea miaka kumi ya kuanzishwa kwa Gloria.tv, bado tunakosa takriban dola 10,000 ili kuufunga mwaka bila deni lolote.
Katika miaka kumi iliyopita, ilikuwa nadra sisi kukuomba usaidizi wa kifedha. Leo hii, tunategemea zawadi yako ya sherehe hii au msaada wako wa Ujio. Tafadhali tusaidie kwa ukarimu …Zaidi

Human beings are the most helpless newborns in all of nature. They cannot walk, speak, or regulate their body temperature. If left alone for just a few hours, they die.
And yet, we build cities and reach the moon.
This is not a paradox. It is the central mechanism of everything we are.
In this video, we explore how the human brain almost destroyed our species, why we are born incomplete, and how that fragility gave rise to empathy, cooperation, and intelligence.

Kadinali Burke: Pengine Nyakati Za Mwisho Zimewasili"

"Kanisa lenyewe linaonekana kukumbwa na bumbuazi* kuhusiana na mafundisho ya kimsimgi ya Kristo kulingana na Kadinali Raymond Burke. Hivyo basi anaamini kuwa "pengine nyakati za mwisho zimewasili".
Akizungumza na Catholic Herald (Novemba 30) pia alizungumzia swali la marekebisho rasmi ya Amoris Laetitia, "Swali zima bado litaamuliwa jinsi ya kuendelea mbele."
Alipoulizwa kuhusu kamati inayosemekana kushughulikia ibada ya kiekumeni. Burke alisema kuwa hajui "hali ya kamati hiyo ilivyo", kumaanisha kuwa kamati hiyo ipo, ukweli ambao Vatikani imeukana.

CANONICAL BRIEFS CAN BE FILED AGAINST IRRATIONAL AND SCHISMATIC CARDINALS BY USING AI ON X

CANONICAL BRIEFS CAN BE FILED AGAINST IRRATIONAL AND SCHISMATIC CARDINALS BY USING AI ON X
Get all the information you need from AI (Grok) on ‘X’ (Twitter). Ask AI for information on The Lionel Andrades (LA ) rational interpretation of Vatican Council II as opposed to Cardinal Victor Manuel Fernandez’ irrational interpretation of Vatican Council II.
On my AI (Grok) channel on X, check my conversations with Grok by accessing the ‘history’ section. Ask questions until you are clear on this subject. Then tell AI to prepare a canonical petition. You can use the petition to get a response from Cardinal Fernandez and your local bishop.
They interpret Vatican Council II irrationally and so schismatically. This is a sin. A traditional option now exists.
It would be helpful to have the support of a registered canonist. Remember, he too must learn to interpret Vatican Council II honestly.

Friday, 20th June 1913 Frank Trial Will Not Be Long One
Friday, June 20, 1913
Few Witnesses of the Scores Examined Will Be Called When Case Is Heard.
That the trial of Leo M. Frank will take a much shorter time that is generally thought was indicated in a statement by Judge L. S. Roan. The judge said the greatest difficulty and almost as great a length of time would be consumed in drawing a jury as in the hearing of the case. He said the actual taking of evidence might not consume more than a day.
Judge Roan intimated that he expected neither side to introduce the scores of witnesses who had been examined and made affidavits, but that from these witnesses the State and the defense would select the most material evidence, or salient points, and then introduce the most reliable witness who could cover the ground.
For instance, eight or ten different persons might be able to testify on some different minor points, while there would be one witness who could testify to the same thing the …

6 reasons that many Catholics will pay dearly for ignoring abortion

1. Then the Lord said to Cain, “Where is Abel your brother?” He said, “I do not know; am I my brother's keeper?” Genesis 4:9. Comment: Yes, we are our brother’s keeper. If you simply refuse to help unborn babies in danger of abortion then you are a deviant like Cain.
2. For whoever does not love their brother and sister, whom they have seen, cannot love God, whom they have not seen. 1 John 4:20. Comment: If you don’t love unborn babies who you have seen enough to try to save them then you cannot love God who you have not seen.
3. CCC 2269 The fifth commandment forbids… “refusing assistance to a person in danger.” Comment: This precept is derived from the parable of the Good Samaritan wherein the priest and the Levite lost their salvation for not stopping for the man half dead. So it will be for not stopping to help the unborn in danger of abortion.
4. Rebuke your neighbor frankly so you will not share in their guilt. Lev 19:17. Comment: We all know exactly when and where the unborn …Zaidi

Kadinali Wa New York: Ubadilishaji Wa Ombi La Baba Yetu Ni Dhambi

Kadinali wa New York Timothy Dolan anaamini kuwa Papa Francis alikuwa na lengo la kufafanua ombi la Baba Yetu wala sio kulibadilisha. Kulingana naye, ubadilishaji wa maneno ya Baba Yetu ni dhambi na ana uhakika kuwa Francis anakubaliana naye.
Francis amependekeza utafsiri bandia usemao "usituache tukaimgia katika majaribu" uchukue nafasi ya "usitutie katika majaribu."
