Catholic Church

By Emily Mangiaracina, LifefSiteNews - The bishop of Cleveland, Ohio is establishing a diocesan shrine dedicated to offering the Traditional Latin Mass (TLM), meeting the requirements of Traditionis Custodes for the preservation of the TLM in a diocese... Bishop Edward Malesic issued a decree on July 28 rendering St. Elizabeth of Hungary Catholic Church in Cleveland a diocesan shrine set aside for the Latin Mass and sacraments. Malesic stated that the church is to be used for worship according to the “1962 Missale Romanum and the other liturgical texts in use at that time.”

By Courtney Mares, CNA - Canon 296 on the lay involvement in the personal prelature now also includes a reference to canon 107 and stresses that “the manner of this organic cooperation and the main duties and rights connected with it shall be determined appropriately in the statutes.”... The changes build upon the pope’s previous decree on the oversight of Opus Dei last year in the motu proprio “To guard the charism,” which declared that its leader, the prelate, could no longer be a bishop.

By Fr. John A. Perricone, Crisis Magazine - Shivers of horror still travel down the backs of the sturdiest of men at the mention of Auschwitz. It is a place forever synonymous with satanic evil. Yet, Catholics know differently: not a denial of Auschwitz’s inhuman terrors, but its standing as a crucible of holiness... Its barbarity created two canonized saints: Maximilian Kolbe and Teresa Benedicta of the Cross. And they are only the acknowledged ones. Who is to say how many countless souls united themselves to Christ’s cross in that unremitting hell of grisly death, gaining swift entry into paradise?

By Raymond Leo Cardinal Burke, Substack - In promulgating the Code of Canon Law, Pope John Paul II recalled the essential service of canonical discipline to the holiness of life, the renewed life in Christ, which the Second Vatican Ecumenical Council wished to foster. He wrote: I must recognize that this Code derives from one and the same intention, the renewal of Christian living. From such an intention, in fact, the entire work of the council drew its norms and its direction.
