nytimes.com/…gs/birkenstock-steps-into-high- … The popular sandal company is collaborating with the brand Danielle Frankel to create a collection using lustrous fabrics and materials. Birkenstocks are known for their functionality, not necessarily for having a formal look. But some brides have said they would wear the orthopedic-rooted sandals down the aisle — if only they were reworked to have a distinctly bridal appearance. In 2023, Danielle Frankel Hirsch, a popular designer for fashionable brides, asked herself, “What if Birkenstock was a bridal shoe? What does that look like?” She sketched dozens of designs, keeping in mind the many faithful Birkenstock customers who want to be comfortable on their wedding day and still feel stylish. As lifelong fans of Birkenstock, Ms. Frankel Hirsch, who founded the bridal brand Danielle Frankel in 2017, and her husband, Joshua Hirsch, the chief executive of the company, took a particular interest in this concept. He owns seven pairs; she owns …Hiroc’h

The late Belgian Catholic priest Abbé Maurice Léonard, who was publicly mourned by his female “companion” and his “children of the heart,” was not an isolated case. RiposteCatholique.fr has published on January 29 another obituary that renews questions about clerical celibacy in Belgium. Abbé Marc Otjacques, a longtime priest in the Andenne region, died on September 4, 2025 at age 73 in a bicycle accident while returning from presiding over a Eucharist. The official diocesan obituary praised his decades-long commitment to the poor and made no mention of a concubine. According to a separate family-published notice, the priest was mourned by Madeleine Dorjoux, identified as his companion; Caroline and Ludovic Trufin-Struvay, described as his “daughter of the heart” and son-in-law; and Laure-Anne and Romain, his beloved grandchildren. #newsHynsecvpst
"Reflections from Christian, Jewish, Muslim, and Buddhist leaders, interwoven with music from the parish’s Filipino and African choirs, highlighted the universality of the Geneva international community and of the Church."
"To say that someone is going to burn in hell because they had (pre-marital sex) is just not true" Episcopalian pastor laments that people consider abortion a "sin," then dismisses the idea that pre-marital sex is necessarily a bad thing, or something that Jesus cares about.
One thing as a FAITHFUL CATHOLIC is that, I will never refrain from knowing that GOD in His predilection has chosen Russia to be His instrument in our times as is the Holy Will of GOD. As a Catholic who loves TRUTH, to follow people today who choose to be blind and deaf about Russia, it reminds one that the followers of the "leaders" and their accomplices of the c-ov-id scamdemic who inverted the TRUTH by gaslighting, fear mongering, and psychological mind-manipulation continue to be unable to break away from the matrix of the propaganda mongers who always deceive and invert the TRUTH.
The Latter Times & the Judgment of Nations Margaret C. Galitzin --- Recently I came across a small book titled The Latter Times [Los Ultimos Tiempos] by a Spanish Doctor of Sacred Scripture, Fr. Benjamin Sanchez, born in 1905. (1) This short work, which examines public and private prophecies about the Latter Times, is quite interesting and significant for our days. This is particularly so because many Catholics, overwhelmed by the apostasy and sin of our days, are wrongly thinking that we are in the End Times that will immediately precede the Last Judgment. --- A renewed world, not the latter times --- A Great Chastisement will come over the earth, Zacharias foresees, where only a third part will be left. These, however, will be tried and purified and will call on the name of the Lord: --- “And there shall be in all the earth, saith the Lord, two parts in it shall be scattered and shall perish: but the third part shall be left therein. --- “And I will bring the third part through the …Hiroc’h
Interesting AI research analysis -- Introduction to the Article and Its Context Margaret C. Galitzin’s reflection on Fr. Benjamin Sanchez’s work The Latter Times addresses a growing concern among Catholics: the belief that we are currently in the End Times immediately preceding the Final Judgment. Fr. Sanchez, a Doctor of Sacred Scripture, analyzes both public revelation (Scripture) and private prophecies to clarify this confusion. The article emphasizes that the current signs of apostasy, moral decay, and global unrest—while serious—are not necessarily indicators of the immediate approach of the Last Judgment. Instead, they may point to a Great Chastisement, a Judgment of Nations, which will purify the world but not end it. traditioninaction.org › religious › g010_Judg-1.htm The Latter Times & the Judgment of Nations by Margaret Galitzin Benjamin Sanchez, set out proofs from Scripture that the latter times is distinct form the end times, and will include a great chastisement, or …Hiroc’h
I like your post. I think we are in the time where satan is unbound (Rev. Chap. 20) because Pope Leo 13th had the mystical experience in 1884 where satan asked to try the Church and God permitted it. I think the next step would be the Second Coming of Christ.
The bishops in Flanders, Belgium, want to keep the debate open on allowing women to become deacons, according to CathoBel.be on January 29. They published a statement saying that the issue should not be considered closed at the local level, even after the recent Vatican study. The bishops said that church tradition should not be the deciding factor in the discussion, and that "signs of the times" should be taken seriously. This was in response to the open letter from a group of women frustrated by the recent Vatican study. The bishops replied that they "understand the women’s feelings". Furthermore, they said that women should be more closely involved in decision-making relating to theology, liturgy and pastoral care, and described women’s leadership in the Church as “an undeniable enrichment”. They added that it is not a good thing that only men carry out liturgical roles during church celebrations. They want women to have greater visibility within Church life, within existing limits. …Hiroc’h
[Saint Louis-Marie Grignion de Montfort; XVII-XVIII Century AD; Montfort-sur-Meu, France/Saint-Laurent-sur-Sevre, France; (aged 43); Founder; Spiritual Writer] “Second part ~ What perfect devotion to Mary consists in I ~ Some true devotions to the Blessed Virgin Mary 24. There are indeed several true devotions to our Lady. I do not intend treating of those which are false. 25. The first consists in fulfilling the duties of our Christian state, avoiding all mortal sin, performing our actions for God more through love than through fear, praying to our Lady occasionally, and honouring her as the Mother of God, but without our devotion to her being exceptional. 26. The second consists in entertaining for our Lady deeper feelings of esteem and love, of confidence and veneration. This devotion inspires us to join the confraternities of the Holy Rosary and the Scapular, to say the five or fifteen decades of the Rosary, to venerate our Lady's pictures and shrines, to make her known to others,…Hiroc’h
The Grace of God and Perfect Devotion to Mary According to Saint Louis de Montfort Saint Louis de Montfort emphasizes that the grace of God is absolutely necessary for salvation and holiness, and this grace is uniquely accessed through a deep, total consecration to the Blessed Virgin Mary. In The Secret of Mary, he outlines a progression of devotions to Mary, culminating in what he calls the "perfect devotion"—a voluntary, loving slavery to Mary as the surest path to union with Jesus Christ. Three Kinds of Devotion to Mary The first devotion involves fulfilling Christian duties, avoiding mortal sin, and occasional prayers to Mary, honoring her as the Mother of God without exceptional dedication.It consists in total self-consecration to Mary as a "slave of love," surrendering all—body, soul, possessions, merits, graces, and the satisfactory value of good works—for her to dispose of according to God’s greater glory.

Fr. Victor Mroz OFM Cap. -Part II: Exile After the destruction of Hanaczow from hands of Ukrainians and Germans – as monstrous as absurd it was considering the fast approaching Soviets – Fr. Wiktor followed thousands of Polish Catholic running westward. In the summer of 1944, putting away his illusions regarding AK (Home Army) that did not cope in the face of “liberators” from the East he became involved with NSZ (National Armed Forces) as a chaplain of one of regiments in the region of Sandomierz (town on the Vistula river) and in the autumn of the same year as the chaplain of the Holy Cross Brigade (Holy Cross is the name of the ancient Polish monastery on the top of the mountain near Kielce, with the True Cross relics, endorsed by Polish kings, e.g. Ladislav Jagiello, the husband of St. Hedwig the Queen, from which the whole region took name; the Brigade was thus named after the region not after the monastery). NSZ was in fact the most realistic thinking Polish underground organization …Hiroc’h

An excerpt from the article by Jason Jones- --- "Under international law and longstanding status-quo arrangements, military intimidation or interference around holy sites is prohibited. Nevertheless, local sources warn that any Palestinian who contests or resists these measures faces severe punishment, including arrest, physical violence, or collective reprisals by Israeli forces."
