This is where every heartbreak will finally make sense. Every unanswered prayer. Every closed door. Every relationship that didn’t last. Every moment you sat there wondering: “God, what are You doing?” It won’t feel random anymore. It won’t feel like it was wasted. It'll feel that everything happened exactly as it should have. Scripture never promised a life without pain - it promised a God who works through it. Romans 8:28 doesn’t say "some" things work for good for those who love Him. It says *all* things work for good. Not just the wins, not just the blessings, but the heartbreak too. The truth is, we spend so much of our lives demanding explanations now - as if we’re entitled to understand the Author, while we’re still in the middle of the story. But one day, standing in eternity, you won’t be asking: “Why did this happen?” You’ll be saying: “Now I see why it had to happen.” The betrayal you thought that broke you? It protected you. The delay you resented? It prepared you. …More
On 2 April, the La Salle ARLEP Catholic school in Benicarló, eastern Spain, hosted an annual Jehovah’s Witnesses ceremony. This event is known as the 'Commemoration of the Death of Christ'. According to InfoVaticana.com, similar cult events have been held at the same venue in the past. Jehovah's Witnesses do not celebrate Easter or the resurrection of Jesus, who they believe to be God's first creation, not God himself. He was raised as a spirit being, not in his body. Members of the sect annually commemorate only his death. Picture: InfoVaticana.com, #newsRpiagivrfe

Al Jazeera confirms the Trump administration's near total fuel blockade on Cuba is causing infant mortality to surge. Doctors are literally operating blind in the dark as life saving machines shut off. This is a deliberate crime against humanity.
Thank GOD at least Russia has sent them oil and gas. Over 100,000 tones first ship alone. Trump backed down from blocking Russia, but he backed off. Putin probably gave him a good speech on morals and GOD! Something trump doesn't know nor understand at all.
What did pre-1955 Holy Week look like? I know Holy Week just ended, so this post is already a bit late, but let me share with you another version of Holy Week celebrations before the 1955 Holy Week reforms. In this post I’m going to walk you through what a pre-1955 Holy Week looked like, based directly on this 1939 schedule from Westminster Cathedral in London, and honestly once you see it laid out like this, you realize just how different things were compared to what we’re used to today. When I say pre-1955, I mean how Holy Week was celebrated before the major reforms of 1955 that completely reshaped the liturgies. So if you’re a Catholic attending the Traditional Latin Mass today, whether that’s FSSP, ICKSP, SSPX, or diocesan, the format you’re experiencing comes from the 1962 Roman Missal, and that already reflects changes. What we’re looking at here is older, and it has a totally different rhythm. PALM SUNDAY/ HOLY TUESDAY/HOLY WEDNESDAY Starting with Palm Sunday, yes, we already …More
Archeologists Are Scared of Opening Gilgamesh's Tomb —And The Reason Will Make You Turn Pale Whispers of a discovery buried beneath the sands of Iraq have terrified even the bravest archaeologists. Radar scans revealed structures matching the epic descriptions of Gilgamesh’s final resting place, yet no one dares break the seal. Why? Because what lies inside is rumored to defy history, science, and even human understanding. Could this be the tomb of a king who was said to be part man, part god? Or is it something even more dangerous? Tonight, we’ll uncover why this mystery has left experts pale with fear.
Professor Marandi — Israel Woke Up in a NEW Reality Today It's up to the Epstein World Order to finally take Iran seriously I snagged this video before YouTube censored it and while I am very curious about Professor Jiang Xueqin's reaction, I haven't found a credible video of him discussing the matter,yet
Epstein Files - Conflict of Interest In leading certain responsibilities of the handling of the Epstein files,The New York Timesdescribed Blanche as having an "unusual, Janus-faced position". Although Blanche's involvement with Trump, an Epstein associate, was not believed to be a conflict-of-interest, it presented a complex situation. According to theTimes, he personally signed the Department of Justice's motion to unseal grand jury testimony in the case againstGhislaine Maxwell, Epstein's accomplice, after the prosecutor who worked on the Epstein and Maxwell cases,Maurene Comey, was fired. Additionally, Blanche had a personal relationship with David Oscar Markus, Maxwell's counsel. In July, Blanche requested a meeting with Maxwell. In preparation for the meeting, Blanche allowed Markus to access grand jury testimony, a move that could have allowed Maxwell to obtain information useful in seeking an appeal for her conviction. Todd Blanche - Wikipedia The meeting between Blanche …More
New details about Epstein's lenient plea deal revealed in DOJ files cbsnews Jeffrey Epstein's controversial 2008 plea deal for charges including soliciting a minor for prostitution has long drawn scrutiny, and newly released details are raising further questions about the months he spent on work release from a Florida jail. Epstein pleaded guilty and surrendered to the Palm Beach County Sheriff's office in July 2008. Dozens of accusers from several states, many underage at the time of the alleged crimes, had been prepared to testify against him on federal sex trafficking charges, but the case was shelved in exchange for his agreement to plea to lesser state charges in Florida. Many survivors of Epstein's crimes and other critics of the plea agreement have called it a "sweetheart deal." After serving fewer than four months in jail, Epstein was granted a special arrangement that allowed him to leave custody for up to 16 hours a day, six days a week, as part of a work release program, …More
During today’s Regina Caeli prayer, Leo XIV paid tribute to his predecessor for his “great witness of faith and love.” Francis died on Easter Monday last year (April 21, 2025) at the age of 88. Leo XIV said, “In the light of the Risen Lord, we remember Pope Francis today with special affection.” Fittingly, he warned that the truth is often obscured by fake news, “that is, by lies, insinuations, and unfounded suspicions.” #newsTqowhltbxb
What wild nonsense he's spouting! No, we absolutely don't remember Francis "with special affection." We remember him as a vile demon from the depths of hell, who daily destroyed everything Catholic, especially the faith.
The Ukrainian leader honored the top EU diplomat for supporting forced mobilization, corruption, and church raids, Russia has said EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas has received a prominent Ukrainian award for encouraging prolonged fighting, forced mobilization, and supporting a crackdown on the country’s largest Christian denomination, Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova has said. Earlier this week, Zelensky decorated Kallas – widely regarded as an anti-Russia hawk – with the Order of Princess Olga, as the two discussed EU support for Kiev. Princess Olga of the Kievan Rus was the first Christian ruler of the realm, establishing contact with Byzantium in the 10th century and paving the way for the mass baptism of Rus under her grandson Prince Vladimir in 988 AD. Kallas said she was honored by the award, adding that “Ukraine has been on my mind every day since Russia started its war of aggression.” She acknowledged, however, that she had no positive update for Kiev …More
[Saint Catharine of Genoa – XV-XVI Century AD; Genoa, Republic of Genoa/ Genoa, Republic of Genoa; Aged 62-63; mystic, known for her work among the sick and the poor] Verses from Imitation ~ Thomas A Kempis Trust not in thy friends and neighbors, and put not oft thy soul's welfare till the future ; for men will forget thee sooner than thou thinkest. It is better to provide now in time and send some good before thee than to trust to the assistance of others after death. If thou art not solicitous for thyself now, who will be solicitous for thee hereafter. Did'st thou also well ponder in thy heart the future pains of hell or Purgatory, methinks thou would'st bear willingly labor and sorrow and fear no kind of austerity. Who will remember thee when thou art dead ? and who will pray for thee ? Now thy labor is profitable, thy tears are acceptable, thy groans are heard, thy sorrow is satisfying and purifieth the soul. The patient man hath a great and wholesome purgatory. Better is it to …More

Bishop Robert Barron has spoken out against criticism of his appearance at last week's White House Easter Lunch: 'In regard to the event at the White House, I had absolutely no control over what the other ministers said. My own contribution was focused on Jesus and the events of Holy Week--and I prayed for the country and that the President would govern according to God's will. To draw the conclusion that I am some mindless supporter of the MAGA movement is a calumny'
Statue of Saint Stephen in Budapest by Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira (Folha de S. Paulo, January 16, 1978) Once upon a time, intelligent and strong people lived in a beautiful region. Everything would have made their lives easy, leading them toward a glorious future, had it not been for the countless centuries of barbarism that weighed upon them. With barbarism came primitive and crude beliefs, pagan customs, and the vice of living at the expense of their neighbors through wars of plunder. All this was around the year 1000. Astonished by its age, the civilized world imagined itself old. Some extravagant people even thought it was coming to an end. However, the world—and more precisely, the West—was being born into all the glories of civilization that soon shone upon it. Almost everywhere, men of valor began leading their peoples along paths toward prosperity and greatness. Among these men were many saints. The prominent men of that era agreed that, in essence, a man’s highest value lies …More
They have been striking civilian sites. Homes, towns, villages, schools, universities, libraries and so on. And no one in Iran is talking to trump. And what a terrible thing to do and say on Easter as he did. Bad enough he went golfing on Christmas day then had a weird crazy New Year's party. The man is not all there. And those who are involved with this war. America is going to be punished severely when the time comes.

Hundreds of empty seats during Leo XIV’s Easter Vigil: Matt Butorac, a Catholic pilgrimage guide, reported on X that there were “hundreds of empty seats” during the Easter Vigil at St Peter’s Basilica. The screenshots, taken from a video he shared for "those claiming it was not empty", show the basilica during the baptisms. Butorac attributes this to ticketing issues and disorganised queues. However, shortly before the Eucharist began, entry was permitted without tickets and everyone was able to enter.
EMTY SEATS: Catholic Traveler had a video on X.com from yesterday's Easter Night Eucharist with Leo XIV. Screenshots (fair use)
@sp2 I see your point and you could be correct. The published pic on this site showed less than a dozen empty seats which were probably in the back of the church. Unfortunately, too many media-types on both sides of any issue are inclined to push a narrative rather than inform their readers.
I was looking at 6:12, also in the dark at 22:24 In the dark, there are some areas without candle light, but to claim it's "Hundreds"....... for crying out loud....... the original post is trying to present it to be an MT house. Is the originator of the post an instigator? Don't be like Francis and say partial truths to present a point........ I want the whole picture.
