The FSSPX’s Christ the King pilgrimage opened in Lourdes on October 24, despite Bishop Jean-Marc Micas’ ban on celebrations inside the sanctuary’s basilicas. Pilgrims gathered under a large tent at Maison Saint-Ignace for four Masses. The day also included Stations of the Cross on the Espélugues hillside and individual prayers at the Grotto of Massabielle, as the faithful continued their pilgrimage despite the restrictions.

"Uniting spiritually" with pagans and heretics? At today’s Angelus, Leo XIV remembered the interreligious Assisi scandal of 1986. He said: “The day after tomorrow, October 27, let us unite spiritually with the heads of Churches and religious leaders who will gather in Assisi on the 40th anniversary of the meeting convened by Saint John Paul II.”
Papa leone all'Angelus invita a pregare per lo "Spirito di Assisi" • Sito: HOME - COMMUNITY OF SANT'EGIDIO All’Angelus in Piazza San Pietro, Leone XIV sottolinea che serve un cuore nuovo "capace di accogliere e di vivere il grande comandamento dell'amore"; un comandamento che non è un obbligo nè una imposizione ma l'esigenza propria del desiderio dell'uomo di essere in comunione con Dio
«THE SPIRIT OF ASSISI» Card. Roger Etchegaray «THE SPIRIT OF ASSISI» The spirit of Assisi: it was Pope John Paul II who coined the expression. Since October 27th 1986, this "spirit" has been felt a little everywhere, losing none of the power of its first flowering. I have no intention of playing the old gardener, but, having been a fascinated witness of its germination in the Pope's thought and the privileged artisan of its blooming, I feel I can affirm: on that day I heard the world's heart-beat. A brief meeting on a hill, a word or two, a gesture, sufficed for fragmented humanity to joyfully rediscover its original unity. When, at the end of a grey morning, a rainbow appeared in the sky over Assisi, those leaders of religions, called together by the audacious prophet of one of them, Pope John Paul II, saw in it a pressing call to brotherhood: no one could doubt that it was prayer which had won this visible sign of concord between God and the descendants of Noah. At San Rufino Cathedral …Дукха
A Secretariat of State letter dated September 30, signed by Archbishop Paolo Rudelli and published by Diane Montagna, confirms that the Vatican rejected a request by organizers of the Ad Petri Sedem pilgrimage. Having already been denied permission to celebrate a traditional Latin Mass in St. Peter’s Basilica, the organizers instead requested permission to enter in procession, pray above the tomb of St. Peter, and adore the Blessed Sacrament. The Basilica’s sacristy had indicated that 1 p.m. would be possible, subject to approval by the Secretariat of State. The Vatican’s response: “Reverend Father, In response to your letter of 8 September concerning the international Ad Petri Sedem pilgrimage, I inform you that it is not possible to grant your request. Please accept, Reverend Father, the expression of my religious and devoted regards. † Paolo Rudelli” #newsPnguweoskc
The Devil's Advocate (West novel) The Devil's Advocate is a 1959 novel by Australian author Morris West. It forms part of West's "Vatican" sequence of novels, along with The Shoes of the Fisherman (1963), The Clowns of God (1981), and Lazarus (1990). Plot Father Blaise Meredith, an urbane and cultured English priest who has passed his unexceptional life at the Vatican, is diagnosed with a terminal disease. He is sent from Rome to a small Calabrian village (Gemello Maggiore) as 'devil's advocate', investigating the life of Giacomo Nerone, a dead local being promoted for sainthood. Meredith has been chosen by Cardinal Marotta for this task, as someone learned and meticulous, perhaps lacking in charity or passion, but not in precision. Meredith expects to die quite soon. Gemello Maggiore's residents are promoting Nerone's cult which will bring prestige and prosperity to a typically post-war, impoverished, rural community in Southern Italy. Meredith discovers that Nerone was in fact a …Дукха

No alternatives dates were offered to the Summorum Pontificum Mass and the previously granted permission was withdrawn. Edward Pentin reports on X.com that organisers of the annual Summorum Pontificum pilgrimage were not offered an alternative date to celebrate Mass in St Peter’s Basilica. He added that the Vatican’s August 7 letter simply stated that the basilica was unavailable, without mentioning any conflicting events. In recent days, it has been argued that the Franciscan anniversary celebrations in St Peter's basilica had been planned for years. @Michael Haynes wrote that the specific event at the Altar of the Chair was announced only in September, after the pilgrimage’s request for Mass had been refused in August. As for the prohibited procession, customary security restrictions have been cited as an excuse. Yet Haynes reports that permission to process into the Vatican had already been granted in April, only to be withdrawn the day before the pilgrimage. #newsUhvemzsmjm
The Vatican denies that Leo XIV will receive immunotherapy
A Vatican source has denied media reports that Pope Leo XIV will undergo immunotherapy. The denial follows a report published by Brazil’s GloboNews on October 23. It claimed that the Pope would receive pembrolizumab, an immunotherapy drug, to reduce the risk of cancer recurrence. The denial was reported on Sunday by the Rome-based Catholic news agency I.MEDIA and the Italian news agency Adnkronos, both citing unnamed Vatican sources. #newsFtvwkchrit

Fortuna E channel
The head of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church, Major Archbishop Sviatoslav Shevchuk, came to his audience with Pope Leo XIV bearing gifts, the prayers and gratitude of the Ukrainian people, and a list of hundreds of prisoners of war held in Russia. According to a statement from the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church, the Major Archbishop handed the list to the Pope during their meeting in the Vatican’s Apostolic Palace. It was his fifth meeting with Pope Leo, whose efforts for peace between Russia and Ukraine have included recent telephone calls with Presidents Vladimir Putin and Volodymyr Zelensky. In those conversations, the Pope appealed for a truce in the Russian-occupied city of Oleshky, where civilians face a desperate shortage of food, water and medicine. Major Archbishop Shevchuk expressed particular gratitude for the calls—the conversation with President Putin took place while the Pope was in Rome’s Gemelli Hospital—and for the attention given to the “humanitarian catastrophe” …Дукха
Leo XIV-appointed, divorced Prefetessa for Media calls her appointment “bizarre”. Montserrat Alvarado, 39, is the first American, the first woman and the youngest prefect of the Vatican Dicastery for Communication, she told EWTN in an interview broadcast on October 23. She added, unprompted: “I'm annulled in the church too, so that's also bizarre.” Alvarado spoke about annulment almost as if it were a Church-sanctioned divorce: “I think more people have spoken to me about that than anything else, their desire to pursue an annulment, to consider that reunification with the church after divorce, not that you need it if you don't want to marry again, but if you do.” A bizarre remark from her: “I don't think that's why I was chosen.”
Vatican Media Prefect "Montse" admits herself: "I'm annulled in the church too, so that's also bizarre. And I think more people have spoken to me about that than anything else, their desire to pursue an annulment, to consider that reunification with the church after divorce, not that you need it if you don't want to marry again, but if you do. There's a lot of confusion around that, and I think that's, for whatever reason, I don't think that's why I was chosen, but there's providence in everything, right? All of our mistakes and all of our flaws, our Lord uses everything for good."
LiveLeak Huge clashes in Tirana, #Albania. Protesters attack police with fireworks. The situation in Tirana has completely spiraled out of control. Mass student protests have been ongoing for 12 days. —— In solidarity with the students, the Democratic Party (DP) held its own march, led by deputies Flamur Noka and Agron Gjekmarkaj. Demonstrators began their action in front of the government building, where they burned wooden chairs that Prime Minister Edi Rama had placed earlier as an invitation to "dialogue." This time Rama went further and set up a stone table on the street with the inscription "dialogue," but protesters destroyed this installation as well.
Islam is a “magnificent faith” for Italian bishops. During the presentation of 11 teaching materials for Catholic religion classes in Italian schools, Rev. Valentino Cottini, former rector of the Pontifical Institute for Arabic and Islamic Studies (PISAI), praised Islam. The presentation was attended by the presiding Italian Cardinal, Matteo Zuppi. Rev. Cottini said that the school materials provide "an objective and empathetic presentation of Islam that does not shy away from difficulties, but illustrates this magnificent faith and splendid culture". The materials were developed jointly by Christian and Muslim scholars with the backing of the Italian Bishops' Conference.
"Insomma, credo sia uscita una presentazione dell'Islam oggettiva ed empatica che non rifugge dalle difficoltà, ma illustra questa magnifica fede e questa splendida cultura nei suoi nuclei fondanti e anche in alcune delle sue più attuali forme espressive."
