A Massachusetts family says the state took custody of their teenage daughter. The parents say it happened after they refused to affirm her as a boy, citing their Catholic faith.
Joseph and Arlene Kutzko say a counsellor at Algonquin Regional High School socially "transitioned" their daughter Sophie with a male name and pronouns without their knowledge, then reported the family to the Department of Children and Families (DCF).
Their attorney, Vernadette Broyles, says an abuse allegation against the father was found unsupported.
The state now has guardianship, while a restraining order prevents Sophie’s parents and older brother from contacting her.
The family says DCF sought to administer high-dose testosterone, but a judge has temporarily blocked the treatment as they fight the case. The next court hearing is October 29.

Toronto Archdiocese cracks down on the traditional Latin Masses.
Cardinal Francis Leo of Toronto, Canada, is implementing 'Traditionis Custodes', effective next Sunday.
VoxCantor.blogspot.com published a terrifying detail: One Sunday per month, the Novus Ordo must be said.
At the parish St. Vincent, the old high altar will be used. At the parish Holy Family the Novus Ordo will be presided over with the back to God facing the people.
And: No other sacraments are permitted according to the 1962 usage.
There are four major parish churches in the Archdiocese of Toronto celebrating the Roman rite:
- St. Lawrence the Martyr Parish — Scarborough
- St. Patrick’s Parish — Schomberg
- Holy Family Parish — Toronto
- St. Vincent de Paul Parish — Toronto
The Masses at Schomberg and Scarborough have existed for over 40 years.
All four parishes have sufficient Novus Ordo Eucharists in various languages.
The numbers are interesting, too. At these four Masses and two celebrated by the Priestly Fraternity …Okunengi

In Canada, Abdul Aziz Kawam, an Islamic scum born in Saudi Arabia, asked a Canadian on the street if he was Muslim.
When the Canadian replied no, Kawam stabbed him, after invoking Allah.
Kawam then got on a bus and tried to slit the throat of another Canadian.
Kawam told the police that he had done it "in the name of the Islamic State" to which he had pledged allegiance.
His two victims survived.
Kawam was convicted of attempted murder in connection with a terrorist organization.
This is what the traitors who lead us force us to accept in the name of a humanism that they systematically exclude their own people from.
Why?

Autumn Ember Days is coming!
Today (September 14) is the Exaltation of the Holy Cross. Autumn Ember Days follows this feast day. I don't know what days we fast for 2026! My guess is Sept 16, 18, 19. Some sources say Sept 23, 25, 26. It probably does not matter which week you choose. I intend to fast starting the Wednesday, September 16.

Dan Hartman delivers an emotional and harrowing testimony at the Allison Inquiry (Day Four, 11 September 2026) regarding the sudden loss of his 17-year-old son, Sean. Sean Hartman was a vibrant, healthy 17-year-old hockey captain with aspirations of playing professional hockey. In 2021, facing mandates that prevented him from playing the sport he loved, Sean received the injection. Just days later, he experienced severe adverse reactions and tragically passed away 33 days after his shot. In this emotional testimony at the Allison Inquiry, Sean's father, Dan Hartman, shares his family's heartbreaking journey, the medical oversights they encountered, the ongoing legal battles, and his relentless pursuit of truth and accountability for his son.

Even as pope, Leo XIV uses his time to help his family with everyday problems. His brother John Prevost recently bought a new computer but could not get it to work properly. He called his brother at the Vatican, who explained step by step how to solve the problem. John also revealed that Leo XIV helped him with his tax return last year.
In an interview with Italian broadcaster TG5 for Leo XIV’s 71st birthday today, John Prevost spoke about his brother’s life as pope.
The brothers last met in July, when John joined Leo XIV during his summer stay at Castel Gandolfo. They spent ten days together, much of it at the papal summer residence.
John said they relaxed by the pool, read books, took naps, watched television and went swimming.
Leo XIV also took his relatives to several monasteries and showed them where he lives in the Vatican.
Asked how Leo XIV is coping with his new role, John said his brother “hasn’t collapsed.” He described him as facing the situation with humor, strength and …Okunengi

RARE MOVE by a Virginia Bishop Ahead of Election Day "Catholic Bishop Michael Burbidge says he has never before asked every priest in his diocese to do what he requested this weekend: read a letter at Mass urging Catholics to oppose two Virginia constitutional amendments on abortion and marriage." "Across 70 parishes serving more than 430,000 Catholics in Northern Virginia, worshippers heard Burbidge warn against what he called 'two dangerous ballot initiatives'—proposed constitutional amendments that Virginians will decide Nov. 3. Early voting begins Friday."

Leo XIV increases salaries for cardinals and senior Vatican officials.
Today, Leo XIV has abolished the pay cuts introduced by Francis in 2021. Francis had ordered a 10% salary cut for cardinals working for the Holy See and an 8% reduction for senior officials and curial secretaries as the Vatican faced financial difficulties. Other clergy and religious employees initially faced a 3% cut, which was abolished in 2025.
Leo XIV’s new motu proprio, effective September 1, abrogates the 2021 decree in its entirety.
He claimed the measures had been necessary due to the “exceptional challenge of the pandemic,” but could now be superseded as the Holy See and Vatican City pursue economic sustainability “through different instruments.”

Leo XIV has Vatican building constructed to accumulate more and more things.
In a chirograph issued today, Leo XIV has announced a new building inside Vatican City for the Apostolic Archive and Library. The vast and growing collections have exhausted existing storage capacity. Leo XIV cites the “considerable increase” in the Holy See’s bibliographical holdings and documentary output.
No budget, architect, building dimensions, construction timetable or completion date has been announced.
The complex will rise in the Fontana dell’Autoparco area. Space will be divided equitably between the Archive and Library, with part reserved for other Vatican City services.
The decision modifies a plan approved by Francis in 2024, which envisaged new storage in the extraterritorial Lateran area.
The scale is enormous: the Apostolic Archive holds more than 600 archival fonds spanning roughly 12 centuries and over 85 km of shelving. The Library preserves around 180,000 manuscripts and archival documents …Okunengi
