On 2 July, Archbishop Georg Gänswein, the Nuncio to the Baltic States, spoke to Corriere.it about the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X and the Mass in the Roman rite. Key quotes, slightly shortened - The FSSPX has become even more hardline. It's unbelievable - truly sad. - Their understanding of tradition is not tradition. They freeze Catholic tradition at Pius XII. After that, they see nothing but errors. - Benedict XVI lifted the excommunications of the four bishops as a father seeking peace. It was an outstretched hand they refused. The radical faction prevailed—they rejected reconciliation then and still do. - They are like the Protestants of five centuries ago. Cardinal Müller is right. - I am very disappointed. Grace can do anything over time, but for now I see even greater distance and deeper hardening than before.

July 3: St. Thomas, the Patron Saint of India. secretsofhappinessandhealth Saint Thomas is famous for having doubted the Resurrection of Jesus and for demanding physical proof of the wounds of Christ's Crucifixion.

WHO Director Tedros Attacks Bishop Schneider: WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus responded on X.com after an older video of Bishop Athanasius Schneider resurfaced online. In the video, Bishop Schneider describes mass immigration into Europe as an invasion aimed at islamising the continent and argues it threatens Europe's Christian heritage. Tedros said calling immigrants "invaders" dehumanises them and argued many are families fleeing war, hunger, and hardship. He added that migration should be managed with order and fairness but distinguished that from "demonising" immigrants.

Stay Faithful While Many Fall Away The focus of the church has shifted away from God and towards human desires, leading to a rejection of biblical teachings. Despite this, the faithful are encouraged to remain steadfast in their beliefs, trusting in God’s plan and the ultimate triumph of the Church. The current challenges are seen as a test of faith, urging believers to stay true to Jesus and not be swayed by false teachings. Fr.

How can you argue with Vatican II? It says that "Buddhism teaches a path by which men, in a devout and confident spirit, can either reach a state of absolute freedom or attain supreme enlightenment by their own efforts or by higher assistance." But the Council neglected to tell us that this path of Buddhism avails nothing as far as salvation is concerned. Oops!

When Tucho Called Excommunications Terrible. From the Archives: In a homily delivered by Víctor "Tucho" Fernández, then Archbishop of La Plata, on 5 March 2023 at the Cathedral of La Plata, Argentina, he said: "You know that, for many centuries, the Church went in another direction. Without realizing it, it developed an entire philosophical and moral framework full of classifications—to categorize people, to label them. This one is like this, that one is like that. This one can receive Communion; that one cannot. This one can be forgiven; that one cannot. It is terrible that this happened to us in the Church. Thank God Pope Francis is helping us free ourselves from those rigid patterns of thinking."

The Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith published today the procedure for the “reconciliation” with the Vatican of former clergy of the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (FSSPX), together with a separate procedure for lay faithful. (Full Italian document below). The procedure, effective July 1, 2026, provides that a priest who has decided to leave the FSSPX must be willing to accept the Second Vatican Council and the “legitimacy of the Novus Ordo Missae,” while remaining attached to the usus antiquior (traditional Roman rite). The priest must: - Find an Ordinary (a diocesan bishop, a major superior of a clerical pontifical institute of consecrated life, a clerical pontifical society of apostolic life, etc.) who is willing to receive him ad experimentum. - Write, in his own hand, a letter to the Holy Father introducing himself and requesting the remission of the censures incurred either because he received priestly ordination from an excommunicated or otherwise canonically irregular …Zvimwe

While previous popes usually avoided accepting secular awards, Leo XIV today received the 2026 Liberty Medal from the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia. The Centre said it was honouring the Pope for his support of religious liberty, freedom of conscience and human dignity — all of which are ideological frameworks that are not specifically Catholic. The National Constitution Center describes itself as a nonpartisan institution dedicated to constitutional education. In practice, it is a prominent institution within the U.S. civic establishment, regularly hosting former presidents, senior government officials, judges, military leaders, and foreign-policy figures. In a video address from the Vatican, Leo XIV praised the United States for having “opened its own doors to successive waves of immigrants, enabling them and their children to contribute to shaping the nation's future.” #newsGognnhkfug
Bishop Terry R. LaValley of Ogdensburg, New York State, has issued a pastoral letter declaring that the Priestly Fraternity of St. Pius X (FSSPX) is . following the unauthorized ordination of four bishops - in "formal schism" with the Church. In a letter dated July 1, Bishop LaValley instructed Catholics in the Diocese of Ogdensburg not to participate in FSSPX liturgies or receive sacraments from FSSPX clergy. He directed Catholics to avoid activities at St. Therese Chapel in Nicholville, New York, as well as any schools operated by the FSSPX. Instead, Catholics seeking the Mass in the Roman rite should attend liturgies celebrated in "full communion" with the Church at St. Mary's Church in Potsdam or St. Mary's Church in Evans Mills. The letter also extends an invitation to FSSPX priests who may not wish to participate in what the bishop described as a break with the See of Peter, stating that the Diocese would assist those seeking to remain within the Catholic Church. #newsVhnkjwpivc …Zvimwe

Today, Don Davide Pagliarani, Superior of the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (FSSPX), responded to the 2 July decree of excommunication. It "once again highlights the deeply tragic situation facing the universal Church." He claims that the FSSPX's actions are motivated solely by the desire to save souls and insists that the Fraternity does not seek to replace the Church, but to remain faithful to her. Using the biblical imagery of asking for bread, fish, and an egg (cf. Luke 11:11–13), he says the Fraternity's requests were met with rejection, symbolised by receiving a stone, serpent, and scorpion. According to Pagliarani, the FSSPX had asked to be instructed and confirmed in "the faith of all time", yet was instead declared schismatic for a second time. His central statement is this: "The FSSPX promises You today that it will not receive these new sanctions - objectively unjust and invalid - with bitterness or revolt." Don Pagliarani concludes by expressing confidence that one …Zvimwe
Tucho where is the excommunication of the activist homosexual apostate James Martin, or of the convicted homosexual pedophiles Gustavo Zanchetta and Julio César Grassi?
On 2 July, the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith, led by Cardinal Víctor Fernández, issued a decree and an accompanying explanatory note on the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (FSSPX). InfoVaticana.com notes the two documents carry very different legal weight. The decree declares that the six bishops directly involved in the 1 July illicit episcopal consecrations have incurred latae sententiae excommunication. Canon law permits only a declaratory decree or judicial sentence to declare such penalties, limiting the decree's legal effect to those six bishops. The explanatory note goes further, stating that FSSPX priests are in schism, and that lay faithful who formally adhere to the schism incur excommunication. However, the note has no penal force because it is neither a law, a penal precept, nor a declaratory decree or judicial sentence, but simply a doctrinal explanation. Furthermore, latae sententiae excommunication requires an individual assessment of culpability and cannot …Zvimwe
