Vatican News reports the completion of private rites sealing the Holy Doors of the four Papal Basilicas (13–16 January 2026), including the placement of a bronze box containing commemorative medals of recent antipopes, documents, and keys. The ceremonies, conducted without public participation, epitomize the conciliar sect’s abandonment of sacramental efficacy in favor of sterile ceremonialism.
Vatican News portal (January 14, 2026) reports the completion of a mosaic portrait of antipope Robert Prevost (“Leo XIV”) for the Basilica of St. Paul Outside the Walls. The portrait, crafted by the Vatican Mosaic Studio under Cardinal James Michael Harvey’s direction, employs traditional techniques to perpetuate the conciliar sect’s fraudulent claim to apostolic succession.
Catholic News Agency (January 14, 2026) reports that over 45,000 youths plan a pilgrimage to Mexico’s Christ the King monument on Cubilete Hill, commemorating the 100th anniversary of the Cristero War. The event features a “Holy Mass” celebrated by Vatican representative Joseph Spiteri and León “archbishop” Jaime Calderón Calderón, framed as resistance against “subtle censorship” of Catholicism. Organizers from the “Witness and Hope” group decry church attacks and murdered priests while paradoxically collaborating with the very ecclesiastical structures enabling Mexico’s anti-Catholic persecution.
The VaticanNews portal (January 14, 2026) reports that usurper “Cardinal” Pietro Parolin will elevate Kuwait’s Church of Our Lady of Arabia to a “Minor Basilica,” framing this act as a pastoral achievement while concealing its theological bankruptcy.
Catholic News Agency reports on a January 14, 2026, general audience in which the usurper of the Apostolic See, Leo XIV (Robert Prevost), urged Christians to “set aside time… to speak with God in prayer,” framing divine communion as a dialogue between friends. The address centered on Vatican II’s Dei Verbum, with claims that “listening and dialogue with God” form Christianity’s foundation. This modernist inversion reduces the supernatural order to anthropocentric sentimentality.
Catholic News Agency reports on Greenlandic Catholics’ opposition to potential U.S. annexation efforts, quoting Sister Anna Mirijam Kaschner of the Nordic Bishops’ Conference stating parishioners view Greenland as “their land” and don’t wish to become Americans. The article describes Greenland’s 55,000 residents as predominantly Lutheran, with Catholics served by Denmark’s Diocese of Copenhagen. Political leaders jointly declared: “We do not want to be Americans, we do not want to be Danes — we want to be Greenlanders,” asserting their right to self-determination under 2009 self-rule provisions. Church representatives adopt a “cautious” stance prioritizing “the well-being and wishes of Greenland’s people” while awaiting developments.
Vatican News portal reports (January 14, 2026) on an address by the antipope Leo XIV during his Wednesday General Audience, continuing a series on the Second Vatican Council. The article focuses on his commentary regarding Dei Verbum, the conciliar document on Divine Revelation, which he describes as “one of the most beautiful and important of the Council.” The antipope emphasizes Jesus’ words in John 15:15—”No longer do I call you servants…but I have called you friends”—claiming this establishes a “relationship of friendship” as “the only condition of the new covenant.” He urges daily personal prayer and meditation to “cultivate friendship with the Lord,” while omitting any reference to the sacraments, the necessity of grace, or the hierarchical nature of the Church. This relativistic presentation of divine revelation exemplifies the neo-modernist subversion of Catholic doctrine.
Catholic News Agency reports on the U.S. Supreme Court hearing arguments regarding state laws banning transgender athletes from women’s sports teams (January 13, 2026). The article features Catholic athletes from Christendom College and U.S. bishops supporting the bans, citing concerns about competitive fairness and alignment with “God’s natural law.” Justices Alito, Kavanaugh, and Gorsuch appear sympathetic to these arguments, emphasizing biological differences and Title IX protections. The bishops’ amicus brief warns that forcing Catholic schools to admit transgender athletes would violate “fundamental Catholic teachings regarding the immutable, God-given differences between the sexes.”
Catholic News Agency portal (January 13, 2026) reports Nicaraguan researcher Martha Patricia Molina’s testimony before the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF), detailing 19,836 attacks by Daniel Ortega’s regime against the Church since 2018. Molina cited the expulsion of 304 priests and nuns, Bible import bans, police harassment of altar boys, and the closure of seminaries—reducing some dioceses to 30-40% priestly capacity. She demanded “aggressive” sanctions against Ortega’s military and prosecution for crimes against humanity. USCIRF Chair Vicky Hartzler framed religious freedom as a universal human right, while U.S. representatives like Riley Moore (R-WV) declared America “a Christian nation” with a duty to defend persecuted Christians. The commission heard similar appeals regarding China, Nigeria, and other nations.
Catholic News Agency reports on Bishop Raimo Goyarrola’s plan to establish Finland’s first Catholic school within a Lutheran church building in Helsinki, describing it as a “dream” to serve approximately 20,000 Catholics in this majority-Lutheran country. The institution would operate under state-recognized homeschooling models while maintaining “Christian values” and admitting children of all faiths. This ecumenical venture exemplifies the conciliar sect’s surrender to religious indifferentism and structural apostasy.
