A 31-year-old Polish man, identified by regional media as Bartłomiej Włodzimierz Krakowiak, has been arrested for vandalizing the Marian shrine of Medjugorje during the night of 27–28 July, just days before Mladifest, which is expected to attract around 50,000 young pilgrims. "Medjugorje Is a Deception" The suspect allegedly poured black paint over statues of the Virgin Mary on Apparition Hill and at the Blue Cross, wrote "Devil in a skirt" on one statue. He hung banners accusing the six visionaries of being "frauds - I have proof", spray-painted slogans including "Medjugorje is a deception," "Only Jesus," and "Mary = devil," and set fire to the recently renovated outdoor altar behind St. James Church. He was arrested hours later in Černo, near Ljubuški, heading toward the Croatian border. Former Pilgrim The case is particularly striking because the suspect had previously visited Medjugorje as a pilgrim. Regional media report that in 2017 he walked 1,300 km from Warsaw to the shrine, …Zêde
Medjugorje's Answer Was Not Anger; It Was Prayer, Forgiveness, and Hope - Shalom World News They covered Our Lady with paint. They tried to scar a place of prayer. But they could not extinguish what lives in the hearts of believers. The wounds inflicted on the sacred spaces of Medjugorje have already begun to heal. Volunteers and parish workers immediately came together to clean, restore, and prepare the sanctuary once again, ensuring that every pilgrim can continue to encounter Christ in prayer under the loving gaze of the Queen of Peace. Yet the most powerful response has not been brushes, water, or repairs—it has been the Gospel. For more than forty years, Our Lady's message in Medjugorje has remained the same: pray, fast, forgive, and choose peace. In the face of hatred, the parish has chosen mercy. Instead of anger, it offers forgiveness. Instead of condemnation, it prays for the conversion of those responsible, asking that God's grace touch their hearts and lead them back to the …Zêde
Medjugorjes Antwort war nicht Wut; sie war Gebet, Vergebung und Hoffnung - Shalom World News Sie beschmierten die Muttergottes mit Farbe. Sie versuchten, einen Ort des Gebets zu entstellen. Doch sie konnten nicht auslöschen, was in den Herzen der Gläubigen lebt. Die Wunden, die den heiligen Stätten von Medjugorje zugefügt wurden, beginnen bereits zu heilen. Freiwillige und Gemeindemitarbeiter schlossen sich sofort zusammen, um das Heiligtum zu reinigen, zu restaurieren und erneut vorzubereiten, damit jeder Pilger Christus weiterhin im Gebet unter dem liebevollen Blick der Königin des Friedens begegnen kann. Doch die stärkste Antwort waren nicht Pinsel, Wasser oder Reparaturen – es war das Evangelium. Seit über vierzig Jahren ist die Botschaft der Muttergottes in Medjugorje dieselbe: beten, fasten, vergeben und den Frieden wählen. Angesichts des Hasses hat die Gemeinde die Barmherzigkeit gewählt. Statt Zorn bietet sie Vergebung an. Statt Verurteilung betet sie für die Bekehrung der …Zêde
Around 500 nude volunteers gathered outside the Cathedral of Santa Ana in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain, on Sunday for a photographic installation by American artist Spencer Tunick as part of the Culture & Business Pride festival. Participants, painted in the rainbow colors, posed in front of the cathedral on the feast of St. Anne, the city's patron saint. The project was planned in advance as an official festival event, with backing from local tourism and government bodies. Organizers said the artwork celebrated diversity and homosexuality. According to El País, the local bishop, Monsignor José Mazuelos, said he did not object to the nude performance in front of his cathedral: "I have no problem. When we go to the beach, we see naked bodies, don't we?" His complaint was instead about access restrictions that temporarily delayed clergy and parishioners attending the 10 a.m. Eucharist. He also described the event as "marketing for the city," adding he supported it insofar as it promoted …Zêde

Rev. Gerald Murray Questions Vatican's Rupnik Trial: The New York-based canon lawyer criticises the lack of transparency in the Vatican's canonical trial against Marko Rupnik. "Why don't we know who the judges are?" he asked talking to Raymond Arroyo on 25 July. Rev Murray also pointed out that "we don't know which charges" are being levelled against Rupnik. Finally, he argues that victims who provided evidence should have the right to participate in the process. "The whole thing is a horrific problem."

The Epstein files indicate hundreds of crimes were committed, mostly sexual in nature. The perpetrators need to be arrested and held accountable.

Patrick Buisson, the former adviser to former French President Nicolas Sarkozy, named the Fraternity of Saint Vincent Ferrier as the universal beneficiary of his estate in a will drafted in March 2021, reports LeMonde.fr on July 4. The community follows the traditional Dominican rite. Buisson died on December 26, 2023, at age 74. He bequeathed not only his personal assets but also a substantial collection of political archives, including manuscripts, notebooks, correspondence, digital files and recordings from his years at the Élysée Palace. Archives relating to Sarkozy's presidency - including Buisson's secret recordings made between 2007 and 2012 - are at the center of an ongoing dispute.

Berlin’s homosex march 'Christopher Street Day' is a “joyful and moving celebration.” That is what pro-homosexual Archbishop Heiner Koch of Berlin told KNA on Sunday. He spoke after an attack on the march on Saturday evening. One woman was killed, and at least 31 others were injured, some of them seriously. The attacker, Abdul B., 21, drove a car into the crowd and was later - conveniently for the justice system and politicians - shot dead during a police operation. The full context of Archbishop Koch's statement is: "How terrible! To brutally destroy such a joyful and moving celebration. We keep all the victims, their families, friends, and everyone whose joy has been taken away by hatred in our prayers. Hatred must not prevail." Abdul B. was born in Berlin in 2005 and grew up there. His parents are from Lebanon, and he held German citizenship. His family belongs to a large extended clan.

New Zealand to Build First New Cathedral in Over 120 Years: The Diocese of Christchurch has unveiled the design for the new Cathedral of the Blessed Sacrament, which will stand on the site of the original cathedral destroyed after the devastating Canterbury earthquakes (2010-2011). The new cathedral will preserve historic stained-glass windows. It's a roughly $80 million New Zealand dollar project (about US$46m). The diocese is currently in a fundraising phase. Partner is the architecture firm Warren and Mahoney. The style is "an ancient design, a Romanesque and Gothic hybrid model".

Apostate Priest and Gay Activist James Martin Campaigns For Ordaining Homosexual Men As Priests Note that the normalization of this sin against nature begins by fusing the person with their vice into a pseudo-identity. This constitutes a blasphemy against the Holy Spirit, whose function is our sanctification. (Cf. 1 Thessalonians 4:3) Let us remember that every human being is called to repent and forsake sin; here, however, we see an obstinacy in sin—another unforgivable blasphemy against the Holy Spirit—which leads the person, stubborn in their sin, to die in final impenitence. Furthermore, it is a direct challenge to the Will of God, given that Scripture clearly indicates that God’s will is for us to flee from all sexual immorality and to be holy. It also warns that those who rebel against this teaching are rebelling directly against the Authority of God.
