A decline in religious vocations has prompted the Jesuits in the United States and Canada to restructure the way they train future members of the pro-homosexual order. The Jesuit Conference of Canada and the United States has announced that it will reduce the number of its novitiates from five to two by 2028. This decision was communicated in a letter dated 9 July and signed by the superiors of the conference's five provinces. Under the new arrangement, one novitiate will be located in Detroit, Michigan, serving the USA Midwest, USA East and Canada provinces, while the second will remain in Culver City, California, serving the USA West and USA Central and Southern provinces. Each facility is expected to accommodate up to 30 novices. "Running five novitiates takes an awful lot of high-quality Jesuit personnel," Fr. Joseph Daoust, SJ, superior of the Detroit Jesuit community, told DetroitCatholic.com on July 10. "Each novitiate requires three to four experienced Jesuits dedicated to …තව
French dioceses face a worsening vocation crisis, despite claims of improvement in seminary recruitment, Laurent Dastros writes on July 9 on Substack.com. Dastros notes that, as of 2026, three French dioceses - Aire-et-Dax, Le Puy-en-Velay, and Le Havre - have gone between 12 and 14 years without a diocesan priestly ordination. Carcassonne et Narbonne ended a 19-year gap in 2025 with the ordination of a 51-year-old candidate. Annecy and Rodez could join this list next year if they continue without new ordinations. Longer-Term Picture Dastros calculates that between 2011 and 2026, only three dioceses recorded a single diocesan priestly ordination: Carcassonne et Narbonne, Rodez et Vabres, and Pamiers, Couserans et Mirepoix. Based on the assumption that priests remain in active ministry for approximately 50 years, he estimates that, if current trends continue, each of these dioceses could eventually have only about three native diocesan priests. He further identifies seven dioceses that …තව
What rubbish. The SSPX is not in schism. The Vatican hierarchy are the schismatics. They can worship pagan idols in public, allow Chinese consecrations without papal approval, promote synodal heresy, ratify adultery, bless schismatic Anglican false bishops, but somehow the SSPX are the bad guys? I don’t think so Father Murray. You are WAY off the mark.
13.07.2026 POPE LEO AGREES WITH ME: AG 7 IS ALIGNED WITH EENS . LG 16 IS NOT AN EXCEPTION FOR EITHER. VC2 IS DOGMATIC (AG 7/EENS) AND ECCLESIOCENTRIC (AG7/EENS). Pope Leo is aligned doctrinally with the SSPX General Chapter Statement 2012. ONE QUESTION The pope would agree with the traditionalists. He has to be asked only one question. His reply will be “Yes”. Pope Leo simply has to be asked, “Does Lumen Gentium 16 (being saved in invincible ignorance) refer to a hypothetical and invisible case in 2026?” He will reply, “Yes”. Ask any cardinal the same question .The answer will always be, yes. Ask even a non Catholic or non Christian the same question. The answer will be an obvious-yes. He cannot meet or see someone now in Heaven saved without faith and baptism and instead in invincible ignorance. A journalist would clarify, , “Holy Father, when Vatican Council II refers to being saved in invincible ignorance ( I.I ) and the baptism of desire (LG 14), the reference is to a hypothetical …තව
The newly appointed Bishop Christian Würtz of Eichstätt, Germany, expects further debate over priestly celibacy, he told Br.de on July 12. On Tuesday, Pope Leo XIV appointed him from auxiliary bishop of Freiburg to the diocesan bishop of Eichstätt. During Germany's Synodal Way in 2022, he voted in favour of "blessings" for homosexual concubines and the "ordination" of women-clergy. When asked about his predecessor, Msgr. Gregor Maria Hanke, who voted against those Synodal Way documents, Bishop Würtz said: "I think it goes too far to conclude from that that there are fundamental differences between him and me." He described the different beliefs as "factional disputes." Instead, he said, the focus should be on "what unites us": "That is also an important aspect of synodality - listening to one another, walking together, and learning from one another." When it came to the topic of priestly celibacy, Bishop Würtz said: "This will certainly be a question that continues to occupy us in the …තව
The Roman Rite Revived a Church Planned for Demolition: The church St. Francis de Sales in St. Louis, Missouri, was facing demolition after its parish closed in 2005. Instead, then-Archbishop Raymond Leo Burke of St. Louis entrusted it to the Institute of Christ the King Sovereign Priest. The Roman rite has been celebrated ever since. Today, the church regularly attracts more than 700 worshippers each Sunday, many of whom are young adults and families.

On 28 June, the closing day of Munich "Pride" weekend, the Cathedral of Munich, Germany, hosted its first Christopher Street Day (CSD) Youth Liturgy. The liturgy included scripture readings, prayers, music and personal blessings. The event was organised jointly by the Cathedral Parish, the Catholic youth organisation BDKJ, and the Queer Pastoral Ministry of the Archdiocese of Munich and Freising. The organisers of the 'Catholic' cathedral service also participated in the Munich homosex march. BDKJ members marched carrying a large rainbow banner bearing the words 'Love is no sin'. They also carried a large orange banner depicting Jesus Christ with the slogan 'Jesus would dance with us at CSD!'. Both banners displayed the BDKJ logo to identify them as part of the organisation's official participation in the homosex march. Picture: AI, #newsXyryhufnmj

Spanish Archbishop Rejects Opposition to Mosque: Archbishop José Ángel Saiz Meneses of Seville addressed the proposed mosque in the city at a press conference on Friday. He cited Article 18 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, Article 16 of the Spanish Constitution, and Vatican II's Dignitatis Humanae, emphasizing that religious freedom is both a universal and constitutional right. He added that these rights must be exercised in accordance with state, regional, local, and municipal law. His remarks come as Seville City Council has postponed a decision on the mosque's building permit while seeking additional technical and legal reports following objections from the political party Vox.

Barnabás Márk THE MAN WHO WORKED WITH ADMIRAL BYRD REVEALS WHAT’S REALLY HIDDEN INSIDE THE EARTH John B. Leith claims to have been a radio operator under the command of Admiral Richard Byrd. According to his testimony, Byrd revealed a major classified discovery to him: A pilot would have entered inside the Earth for 1,200 miles (about 1,900 km). No molten core, as we’re taught, but continents and seas inside, comparable to those on the surface. He would have taken 300 photographs of these hidden lands. In 1940, thanks to recovered documents, he would have set off again with a round-wing plane (“round wing plane”), crossed through the Earth, and emerged through a 125-mile opening at the South Pole. Leith specifies that if he says too much, his life is in danger. He claims to have already survived three assassination attempts, to have been poisoned, and that people have been sent to kill him. This testimony aligns with numerous accounts surrounding Admiral Byrd and his secret expeditions …තව
