On 28 April, Don Nicola Bux, a liturgist close to Benedict XVI, commented on MessaInLatino.it regarding Leo XIV’s audience for Mrs Sarah Mullaly, who holds the title and costume of Archbishop of Canterbury. His text: "There is a contradiction between the many Anglican pastors who have become Catholic priests and been incardinated into the ordinariates established by Benedict XVI, and the Pope’s message of good wishes delivered by Cardinal Koch to Sarah Mullaly, who is not a bishop because she is a woman and is not the Primate of Canterbury, as two-thirds of the Anglican Communion does not recognise her as such.' What about the secretary of the Dicastery for Promoting Christian Unity, Monsignor Flavio Pace, who makes the sign of the cross while the Anglican bishop' imparts a blessing in the Clementine Chapel at the tomb of St Peter? Did Koch and Pace not realise the falsity of their actions? Whether out of ignorance or bad faith, they scandalise and confuse many Catholics and require …Sateruse
There is not even the possibility of ignorance that excuses their betrayal, since this implies that they lack the necessary qualifications for the office they usurp. Prevost, Tagle, Koch, and Flavio Pace and the other minions have committed a sin of malice. They are apostates and are not in communion with the Catholic Church, as established by the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith itself— under the pontificate of John Paul II—wherein it is specified that priests take an oath of profession of faith, and where it is clearly taught that Anglican orders are invalid and null. The Church has indicated that this heretical sect lacks apostolic succession. Furthermore, that same decree states: "15 Whoever denies these truths would be in a position of rejecting a truth of Catholic doctrine 16 and would therefore no longer be in full communion with the Catholic Church."

Pope Leo XIV has accepted the resignation of Archbishop Paolo Pezzi from the Archdiocese of the Mother of God in Moscow - an unusual move given that Archbishop Pezzi is only 65 years old and the Vatican offered no explanation for his departure. InfoVaticana.com writes that the departure is "primarily due to accumulated personal burnout/exhaustion after years in an especially demanding post." Leo XIV appointed Bishop Nikolai Dubinin, O.F.M. Conv., auxiliary bishop of Moscow, as Apostolic Administrator of the archdiocese. Monsignor Pezzi has led the Moscow archdiocese since 2007. He has been a Russian citizen since 2011. In January 2026, he declined to sign a statement by Christian and Protestant leaders in Russia concerning the alleged oppression of Christians in several countries, including Ukraine. A spokesman stated that Archbishop Pezzi did not sign because he had no authority to comment officially on foreign states. Archbishop Pezzi’s ecclesial background is in the Priestly Fraternity …Sateruse
Conservative Social Position: He has maintained a stance opposed to the Vatican's more inclusive approach on gay priests, suggesting that homosexual tendencies can be "healed through a return to God". Archbishop Paolo Pezzi, the Catholic Archbishop of Moscow, has faced criticism primarily for his cautious, diplomatic approach to political matters within Russia, including concerns over his silence regarding the repression of Christians and his perceived alignment with conservative stances, such as on LGBTQ+ inclusion.
SSPX against Prevost: "...Leo XIV gives the impression of considering the pseudo-Anglican Church as an instrument of salvation, insofar as he encourages Madame Mullaly - who is no more a bishop than St. Joan of Arc - in her mission."
Bishop René Henry Gracida has died at the age of 102. A veteran of World War II who flew combat missions aboard bombers before entering the priesthood, Gracida later served as Bishop of Pensacola-Tallahassee and then as Bishop of Corpus Christi, Texas, from 1983 to 1997. In his later years, he became known for questioning the legitimacy of Pope Francis’s papacy. Requiescat in pace.
From Diocese of Corpus Christi At the age of 102, Bishop René Henry Gracida passed away on the morning of May 1, 2026. Bishop Mario Avilés wrote, “It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Bishop Emeritus René Henry Gracida. He served as the fifth Bishop of the Diocese of Corpus Christi from 1983 until 1997. We are deeply grateful for his faithful service as our shepherd for 14 years.” Previously, he was appointed Bishop of the Diocese of Pensacola-Tallahassee in Florida (1975–1983) and as an auxiliary bishop of the Archdiocese of Miami in Florida (1971–1975). Born in New Orleans, Louisiana, on June 9, 1923, Gracida was the second child of Enrique J. Gracida Carrizosa, a Mexican architect and engineer, and Mathilde Derbes, a fifth-generation French American Cajun. His great uncle was a vicar general of a diocese in Mexico. As a teenager, Gracida was fascinated by the Jesuit martyrs portrayed in James Fenimore Cooper’s novel The Last of the Mohicans. During World War …Sateruse
Justice Department prosecutors in the Biden administration joked about prosecuting Catholic nuns who attended a pro-Trump rally, according to text messages released by Senator Chuck Grassley and reported by DailyWire.com on April 29. Prosecutor Molly Gaston wrote after viewing a photo of nuns wearing habits at the rally: “I would like to take a special assignment of finding and prosecuting them.” Prosecutor Joseph Cooney replied, “I’m with you,” adding that he would like to prosecute “any nun who still wears the head habit.” Grassley obtained the messages during an investigation into Justice Department conduct and condemned the remarks as evidence of bias against religious Americans. #newsHtiwujinop
Now she hurried home from work that night as soon as she arrived. She found that pretty snake she’d taken in had been revived. “Take me in, oh tender woman , “Take me in, for heaven’s sake, “Take me in oh tender woman,” sighed the snake. Now she clutched him to her bosom, “You’re so beautiful,” she cried. “But if I hadn’t brought you in by now you might have died.” Now she stroked his pretty skin and then she kissed and held him tight . But instead of saying thanks, that snake gave her a vicious bite. …“I saved you,” cried that woman. “And you've bit me even, why? “You know your bite is poisonous and now I’m going to die.” “Oh shut up, silly woman,” said the reptile with a grin, “You knew damn well I was a snake before you took me in.”
Timeline Emerges: Mary Phagan Dead Hours Before Body Found The headline you referenced, "Girl Was Dead Ten Hours Before Her Body Was Found," reflects the intense scrutiny during the 1913 investigation into Mary Phagan’s death. Mary Phagan was last seen alive on Saturday, April 26, 1913, when she arrived at the National Pencil Company to collect her wages. Her body was discovered by the night watchman, Newt Lee, in the factory basement at approximately 3:30 a.m. the following Sunday morning. The forensic and investigative timeline of the case became a primary point of debate during the coroner's inquest, as officials worked to determine the exact hour of her death and the circumstances surrounding her final hours at the factory. The assertion that she had been dead for many hours prior to the discovery was a key element in establishing the timeline of the events that unfolded at the factory on that Saturday.
Today, Leo XIV has appointed Monsignor John Gomez as Bishop of Diocese of Laredo, USA. Born in Colombia in 1975, Monsignor Gomez is a priest of the Diocese of Tyler, a canon lawyer trained at the Gregorian in Rome. He has little discernible public media footprint: no notable interviews, personal social-media presence, podcasts, or published ideological essays appear readily available online. Bishop Joseph Strickland appointed him in 2015 as vicar general of Tyler, Texas. The interesting wrinkle is that Monsignor Gomez remained after Bishop Strickland was removed: He served as delegate of the apostolic administrator from 2023–2025, then vicar general again under Bishop Gregory Kelly from 2025. CatholicVote reported in June 2023 that Monsignor Gomez helped organize meetings between the Vatican visitators and diocesan clergy, religious, and laity during the Apostolic Visitation. The Apostolic Visitation was requested by the new prefect of the Congregation for Bishops, then-Archbishop Robert …Sateruse
Gomez was vicar general in Tyler under Strickland, but was nevertheless the one who arranged clergy from the diocese to meet with Vatican investigators sent to assess Strickland’s leadership.
And what about McElroy's new auxiliary bishops? One appears to be a pro-LGBT ex-military man. And the bishop of Wheeling-Charleston, an undocumented immigrant bishop, a supporter of criminal immigrants, and an enemy of the Traditional Latin Mass. What a bunch of scum; they'll all go to Hell like the pieces of shit they are.
Israeli Army Demolishes Catholic Monastery and Nuns’ School in Southern Lebanon Today, the Israeli army demolished a monastery and a school run by the Sisters of the Holy Savior in the southern Lebanese town of Yaroun. Lebanon’s national news agency said the school was one of the most prominent educational institutions in the Bint Jbeil district and had educated thousands of students from surrounding towns. Israel has continued attacks in Lebanon despite a "ceasefire" extended through May 17.

The writing is on the wall. For those who have eyes, see! Israel eliminated Gaza. Look at pictures; rubble. They also killed and drove out people living in Gaza. Southern Lebanon will be annexed by Israel. They are clearing the ground; leveling towns and buildings and driving the Lebanese out.
They do these things because they hate the Catholic faith and they know Trump will say not a word against it. Billions of American taxpayer dollars will continue to flow freely into Israel .
What if I told you that one of the most important parts of the Mass was deliberately changed not accidentally, not organically, but because the Church’s understanding of sin and sacrifice on the Cross was being re-emphasized in a completely different way? All one must do is look closely at the words changed in the Offertory, from the Traditional Latin Mass to the Novus Ordo. I’m going to walk you through the exact words so you can see why this is a problem. Once you see not only what words were deleted and added, but why these sacred words were changed, you’ll see the Offertory like never before. To get the big picture, we have to go back to the “spirit of Vatican II.” In the years leading up to the council, a new theological movement began to take hold. It emphasized love over sin, mercy over judgment, resurrection over the Cross, and none of those things are wrong in themselves. But you can see in our modern world that the notion of sin has been cast aside. Why focus on the Cross …Sateruse
Leo "has visited Israel repeatedly" and "expressed admiration for the resilience of Jewish life and has cultivated ties with Jewish leaders in Peru, the United States, and Europe. He does not sentimentalize the Palestinian cause, nor reduce the Middle East to a victim-oppressor binary." Those same Vatican sources report that Leo sees "Israel as 'a moral project within history.'" He also "called Netanyahu 'a necessary man in dangerous times,' which, in Vaticanese, borders on radical candor."
Ah, and by the way, with this statement, Prevost clearly indicates that he has never renounced the apostasy of worshipping Pachamama: "Everything we hear today regarding synodality, we were already doing in Chulucanas back in the 1980s."
