I am a survivor of clergy sexual abuse. I remain Catholic for Jesus; everything else is secondary.
I found the little way! And I'm about to show the whole world home. Please follow me during my passion week, and offer the greatest prayers you've ever offered. Jesus is coming.

Look upon his works, ye mighty, and despair.
Help, Lord, for no one loyal remains;
the faithful have vanished from the children of men.
They tell lies to one another,
speak with deceiving lips and a double heart.
May the Lord cut off all deceiving lips,
and every boastful tongue,

If your government thinks the Pope “doesn’t know what he’s talking about” when he defends migrants’ dignity, the world should see the warning sign. The US is no longer leading on human rights. It’s suppressing them.

#ReligiousFreedom allows individuals and communities to seek the truth, live it freely, and bear witness to it openly. It is therefore a cornerstone of any just society, for it safeguards the moral space in which conscience may be formed and exercised.

#Peace is unarmed and disarming. It is not deterrence, but fraternity; it is not an ultimatum, but dialogue. Peace will not come as the result of victories over the enemy, but as the fruit of sowing justice and courageous forgiveness.

The larger point here is that purity tests on who counts as "pro-life" would fail for anyone currently in the political square. Compassion is central. "I would ask first and foremost that there be greater respect for one another and that we search together... to find the way forward in this Church."
Pope Leo in remarks to journalists tonight: "Someone who says I am against abortion but I am in agreement with the inhuman treatment of immigrants in the United States, I don't know if that's pro-life.” www.reuters.com/world/pope-l...
Pope Leo criticizes 'inhuman' treatment of immigrants in US
Pope Leo on Tuesday appeared to offer his strongest criticism yet of U.S. President Donald Trump's hardline immigration policies, questioning whether they were in line with the Catholic Church's pro-life teachings.

A joy the world cannot know is born in fraternity, in the simple life, in the art of asking without shame, and in offering without ulterior motives. This joy restores us to the original truth of our being: we are creatures made to give and receive love. #GeneralAudience

Preaching the message that hope does not disappoint sometimes means swimming against the tide, even in painful situations that appear to be hopeless. Yet, it's precisely at those times when it becomes all the more apparent that our faith and hope don't come from ourselves, but from God. #Jubilee2025

The heart of the Church is torn by the cries rising from places at war, especially from Ukraine, Iran, Israel, and Gaza. We must not grow accustomed to war! Let us instead reject as a temptation the allure of weapons. #Peace

The disparity btwn what’s actually happening in Los Angeles and the way it’s being mischaracterized is one of the biggest stress tests of modern media in recent memory. Botted socials, AI, old clips, declining literacy—it’s like seeing a broken emergency response system hit by a storm.
