Cardinal Matteo Zuppi of Bologna and president of the Italian Bishops’ Conference attended the private funeral of Italian singer-songwriter Francesco Guccini in Pavana on Saturday. He delivered an address, published on Avvenire.it (August 8), in which he practically canonized the self-described agnostic. Guccini, 86, had described himself as an “agnostic possibilist.” Zuppi, who was his friend, recalled that the singer had once told him he wanted the cardinal present at his funeral. Addressing Guccini directly, Cardinal Zuppi imagined what the deceased might now be seeing: “We do not know precisely … what you see: the fullness of that light which, in reality, you had already sensed from here and which you were able to glimpse in the poignant and infinite beauty of life.” Cardinal Zuppi portrayed Guccini’s agnostic doubt positively, as an honest search for truth. “Doubt was your way of standing before things without cheating, with integrity,” he said. “You never stopped asking and listening.” …Hiroc’h

Popes certainly have more important things to do than pay for their hotel room out of their own wallet, as Francis did at the beginning of his pontificate. Do they even have enough time for that?

♰ A Shower of Rose Petals for Saint Philomena ♰ Saint Philomena, Powerful with God, pray for us August 2026 Procession in Honor of Saint Philomena in Mugnano del Cardinale, Italy Mugnano del Cardinale houses the Sanctuary which has been the home of the Sacred Body of Saint Philomena since 1805. Saint Philomena is carried from the side of the Sanctuary and up the historic original main street of Mugnano — the very route along which Saint Philomena first entered this little town more than two centuries ago. Each year, a family whose home stands along this historic route waits for the moment when Saint Philomena passes beneath their windows. As their own expression of love and devotion, they shower her statue with a magnificent cascade of rose petals. Video Universal Archconfraternity of Saint Philomena

Faith Means Trusting God Without Understanding Living by faith, as emphasized by St. Paul, requires a deep trust in God and a life oriented towards Him. This involves acknowledging God in all aspects of life, seeking His guidance, and finding joy in His will, even amidst trials and tribulations. By living by faith, we can find strength and grace to endure hardships, knowing that God is preparing us for eternal life. Fr.

Peter Joyce joins CatholicTV to share the extraordinary story of Little Audrey Santo. How can profound physical suffering become a vessel for extraordinary divine grace? Father Peter Joyce from the Diocese of Worcester steps into the studio to share the life story and canonization efforts for Little Audrey Santo (1983–2007). Fr. Joyce details the tragic swimming pool accident in Worcester, Massachusetts, and subsequent medical overdose that left four-year-old Audrey with akinetic mutism. Rejecting institutionalization, her devoted family brought her home, where Bishop Timothy Harrington granted rare permission to reserve the Blessed Sacrament in her bedroom.

– Folha de S. Paulo, December 10, 1984 – by Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira DIVERSE circumstances have thus far prevented me from writing about the Instruction on Certain Aspects of the “Theology of Liberation,” by Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger, prefect of the Sacred Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith. I am therefore taking advantage of the first opportunity to do so. Thus, it is with great pleasure that I fulfill a special duty that falls to me as a result of something that must be remembered here. Ten years ago, in 1974, the TFPs then in existence published a declaration on the Vatican’s “Ostpolitik” and Paul VI ‘s policy toward communism, so different from that of his predecessor Pius XII. This declaration carefully analyzed the subject and was significantly titled “The Vatican Policy of Détente Toward the Communist Governments — The Question for the TFP: To Take No Stand? Or to Resist?” It filled three quarters of a page in the Folha de S. Paulo (4/10/74). Its tone was respectful yet …Hiroc’h

Israel is silent as Moscow seeks answers about a dual citizen of Russia and Israel. Missing since landing at Ben Gurion Airport last wee.

Monsignor Stephen Rossetti, removed in June as an exorcist by Washington Cardinal Robert McElroy, is continuing his deliverance ministry. In an August 3 email to subscribers, Monsignor Rossetti said he remains a priest in good standing in his home Diocese of Syracuse, New York, and will continue his work through the St. Michael Center, which operates within the territory of the Washington archdiocese. On June 3, Cardinal McElroy removed Rossetti as an archdiocesan exorcist and ended all affiliation between the Archdiocese of Washington and Rossetti's St. Michael Center. Monsignor Rossetti argues that he retains priestly faculties in several dioceses and exorcist faculties in two others. He also says his own bishop has encouraged him to continue the ministry. The June controversy followed Rossetti's eccentric claim that UFOs "are, in fact, demons." Cardinal McElroy - who had removed him for this claim - later said the decision was not about UFOs but reflected his view that the role of an …Hiroc’h
Read this garbage: Msgr Rossetti says " sexual abuse of minors by mothers could more easily be disguised as ordinary acts of cleaning, grooming or dressing children." If it is true that he said this, such a thought could only come from a rotten, corrupt mind. Our mothers -our blessed, beloved mothers- could never do such a thing!
