By Dr. Maike Hickson, LifeSiteNews - Cardinal Oswald Gracias, a member of the Pope's C6 Council of Cardinals as well as the head of the Indian bishops' conference, has claimed in an interview that the path to married priests is still “open.”… He calls Pope Francis “very clever” by “endorsing the final document” of the Amazon Synod, thus leaving it “a valid reference point.”.. In the interview, Gracias also calls for greater responsibilities for women in the Catholic Church...

By Ryan Ellis, Church Militant - If you don't feel compelled to give to your parish, you are not off the hook. You have to come up with some other way to donate to the Church. Here, I would avoid things that are under the control of the bishops. That means no second collections, and certainly no groups like the Catholic Campaign for Human Development, Catholic Charities, Catholic Relief Services, or the other boondoggles routinely flagged by the Lepanto Institute… Your informed conscience… should be your guide… Rather, you might give to traditional Catholic religious orders like the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter, or to another good apostolate of your choosing free of the Catholic hierarchy.

By Most Rev. Joseph Strickland, The Wanderer - Jesus called Mary “Mother” and He entrusted her, as one of His last and greatest gifts, to His beloved disciple and to the entire Church with these tender words of entrustment in the Gospel of John: “When Jesus saw his mother and the disciple there whom he loved, he said to his mother, ‘Woman, behold, your son.’ Then he said to the disciple, ‘Behold, your mother.’ And from that hour the disciple took her into his home” (John 19:26, 27).
