Catholic News Agency reports the death of Russell Shaw at age 90, describing him as a “Catholic writer and journalist” who worked extensively with the U.S. bishops’ conference and served as press secretary for papal visits during John Paul II’s reign. The article lauds Shaw’s career spanning decades in conciliar structures, quoting associates who praise his purported love for Jesus and wisdom in Church matters.
The Catholic News Agency portal (January 6, 2026) reports that the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) has invited Catholics to pray a “9 Days for Life” novena from January 16-24, ostensibly to mark the Day of Prayer for the Legal Protection of Unborn Children on January 22. This annual event, now in its 14th year, claims to reach “hundreds of thousands of people in over 100 countries” with prayers to end abortion and build a “culture of life.” Such theatrical displays of piety cannot mask the doctrinal bankruptcy of an episcopal conference operating under the authority of the post-conciliar sect.
The Vatican News portal (January 6, 2026) reports that antipope Leo XIV (Robert Prevost) will hold his first “extraordinary consistory” on January 7-8 with members of the pseudo-College of “Cardinals.” The closed-door meetings in the “Synod Hall” will discuss five topics: “Evangelii Gaudium and the Church’s missionary character; the apostolic constitution Praedicate Evangelium; the role of the Curia and its relationship with the particular Churches; synodality; and the liturgy”. The event culminates with a sacrilegious “concelebrated” Mass at the Novus Ordo “Altar of the Chair” in St. Peter’s Basilica. This grotesque parody of apostolic governance exposes the accelerating decomposition of the conciliar sect’s theological bankruptcy.
Catholic News Agency (CNA) reports on December 28, 2025-January 3, 2026 attacks in Nigeria’s Kontagora Diocese where bandits killed 42 Christians and Muslims while desecrating a Catholic church. “Fr.” Matthew Stephen Kabirat, communications director of the conciliar sect’s local structure, described the destruction of crucifixes and Stations of the Cross imagery while demanding military intervention, conspicuously avoiding any mention of spiritual remedies or the Social Reign of Christ the King. This naturalistic response epitomizes the conciliar sect’s abandonment of Catholic integralism.
Catholic News Agency reports on a keynote address by “professor” Arthur Brooks at the SEEK 2026 conference, organized by FOCUS (Fellowship of Catholic University Students), attended by 26,000 participants. Brooks, a secular academic and collaborator with Oprah Winfrey, urged attendees to avoid cultural confrontation, stating: “Your job isn’t to win arguments, it’s to win a soul.” He framed evangelization as avoiding “hatred” and instead using persuasion through emotional appeals, recounting a 2014 talk where he dismissed ideological divides by asserting that political opponents “are your neighbors” who merely “disagree with you.” Brooks concluded by invoking a retreat center’s sign: “You are now entering mission territory,” equating Christian mission with uncritical dialogue. Attendees praised his message of “kindness” over truth.
Vatican News portal (January 6, 2026) reports that the Latin American Episcopal Council (CELAM) issued a message expressing “closeness” to Venezuela while invoking “peace, justice, and reconciliation.” The statement references “Pope” Leo XIV’s Angelus remarks and canonizations of José Gregorio Hernández and Carmen Rendiles (October 2025), framing the Church’s mission as social activism under the guise of “accompanying the people.”
Catholic News Agency portal reports on antipope Leo XIV’s celebration of Epiphany Mass in St. Peter’s Basilica, highlighting his homily emphasizing God’s presence “in humble places” rather than “prestigious locations” and his call to protect “small, vulnerable, fragile” things against a “distorted economy.” The liturgy included the closing of the Holy Door ending the Jubilee of Hope, with the antipope decrying churches becoming museums while urging communities to become “homes” standing against “flattery of power.” The report notes 33 million pilgrims attended jubilee events.
Catholic News Agency reports on January 6, 2026, the closure of St. Peter’s Holy Door by “Pope” Leo XIV, concluding what it calls the “Jubilee of Hope.” The ceremony involved processed prayers, a Latin formula, and promises of divine mercy while omitting the traditional masonry ritual. The article emphasizes themes of “conversion, reconciliation, and hope” without defining these terms according to Catholic doctrine, while boasting of 33.4 million pilgrims participating in the modernist spectacle.
VaticanNews portal (January 6, 2026) reports the conclusion of its “Jubilee of Hope,” celebrating 5,000 volunteers who allegedly assisted 33 million pilgrims. The event culminated in a rain-soaked procession through the conciliar sect’s counterfeit “Holy Door,” led by “Archbishop” Rino Fisichella – a figure complicit in the destruction of Catholic sacramental theology. The article exemplifies the neo-church’s substitution of grace with human activism, reducing the Church’s mission to pagan sentimentalism.
VaticanNews portal reports on 6 January 2026 the Angelus address of antipope Leo XIV (Robert Prevost), delivered after a sacrilegious parody of the Holy Mass in St. Peter’s Basilica. The text reduces the Epiphany—which proclaims Christ’s universal kingship—to a humanitarian sermon promoting collectivist utopianism.
