EWTN News reports that the Piarist Fathers in Cuba have publicly demanded the return of their nationalized cloister and school from the communist regime, citing state neglect, looting, and fires that have left the historic buildings in ruins. The article frames this as a legitimate Catholic concern for cultural heritage and community identity.
EWTN News portal reports that Haitian Prime Minister Alix Didier Fils-Aimé met with the antipope Leo XIV in Rome over the weekend of May 9–10, 2026, inaugurating a new embassy of Haiti to the Holy See near the Vatican walls. The article describes diplomatic pleasantries exchanged between the Haitian head of a transitional government and the conciliar sect’s Secretary of State, Cardinal Pietro Parolin, including discussions about “peace,” “humanitarian” concerns, and the scheduling of elections for August 30. A Mass for “peace in Haiti” was celebrated by Parolin at the Basilica of St. Mary Major, during which he quoted St. Augustine on the nature of peace. The prime minister described his audience with Leo XIV as “very emotional” and praised “the exceptional relation with the Holy See,” highlighting that “the morale of the Catholic Church” is a “positive” factor in Haitian society. This entire spectacle of diplomatic theater, far from being a genuine act of Catholic statecraft, is a grotesque parody that reveals both the spiritual bankruptcy of the conciliar sect and the utter confusion of a nation in crisis that seeks salvation from a counterfeit Church.

EWTN News reports that “Pope” Leo XIV appointed Bishop Steven J. Lopes, head of the Personal Ordinariate of the Chair of Saint Peter (USA/Canada), as apostolic administrator of the Personal Ordinariate of Our Lady of the Southern Cross in Australia. The appointment, effective May 11, 2026, places Lopes in charge of former Anglicans who have entered into communion with the conciliar structures. The Vatican reaffirmed its support for these ordinariates in a March 2026 document from the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith titled “Characteristics of the Anglican Heritage as Lived in the Ordinariates Established Under the Apostolic Constitution Anglicanorum Coetibus.” The document highlights the “ecclesial ethos” of Anglican patrimony, emphasizing lay participation in governance and evangelization through beauty in worship, music, and art. Archbishop Anthony Randazzo, former apostolic administrator, expressed gratitude for the “grace-filled growth” and “renewal” of the Australian ordinariate. Lopes himself stated he has come to know the community over the years and will now “be its custodian for a while.”
The National Catholic Register (May 11, 2026) reports on annual ecumenical gatherings at Bílá Hora (White Mountain) in the Czech Republic, where Catholics and Protestants jointly commemorate the 1620 battle that crushed the Bohemian Protestant revolt. Organized since 2020 by the lay group “Smíření Bílá hora” (“Reconciliation White Mountain”), these events—endorsed by the Czech “Bishops'” Conference, attended by “Archbishop” Jan Graubner, and praised by the antipope Francis—transform a historic Catholic victory into a stage for false ecumenism, erasing doctrinal truth in favor of sentimental unity. The article presents this as healing a “national trauma,” yet omits that the battle preserved Catholic orthodoxy against heresy, revealing the conciliar sect’s betrayal of the faith it once defended.
National Catholic Register portal reports that Cardinal Charles Maung Bo, the archbishop of Yangon and Myanmar’s first cardinal, addressed the Australian Catholic Bishops’ Conference plenary assembly in Sydney on May 8, 2026, describing his country as enduring a “polycrisis” five years after the military coup. He detailed overlapping economic, social, health, and humanitarian crises, with over 3.5 million people displaced and basic systems collapsed. Bo thanked Australian Catholics for their solidarity through Catholic Mission and linked his appeal to the centenary of World Mission Sunday. He also commissioned Peter Gates as the new national director of Catholic Mission Australia. The cardinal has repeatedly called for nonviolence and dialogue amid the civil war that began in February 2021.
This address, while highlighting genuine human suffering, operates entirely within the naturalistic and modernist framework of the post-conciliar sect, reducing the Church’s mission to humanitarian aid and interfaith dialogue while remaining conspicuously silent on the supernatural causes of the crisis and the absolute necessity of the Social Reign of Christ the King for true peace and justice.
EWTN News reports that on May 11, 2026, the usurper occupying Peter’s throne, Leo XIV, addressed participants in the eighth colloquium between the Dicastery for Interreligious Dialogue and the Royal Institute for Inter-Faith Studies, calling on Christians and Muslims to “transform indifference into solidarity.” The theme of the gathering was “Human Compassion and Empathy in Modern Times.” The occupant of the Vatican declared that compassion is “essential for what it means to live a truly human life,” praised the Muslim tradition’s association of compassion with divine mercy, and lamented that technological advances “can dull our hearts rather than stir them.” He further expressed appreciation for Jordan’s Prince Hasan bin Talal and the Hashemite Kingdom’s efforts in welcoming refugees. This address, delivered in the Clementine Hall of the Apostolic Palace, represents yet another step in the systematic dismantling of Catholic doctrine by the conciliar sect, reducing the supernatural faith of Christ to a naturalistic program of humanitarian sentimentality indistinguishable from the most degraded forms of liberal Protestantism and outright religious indifferentism.
The National Catholic Register (cited via EWTN/CNA) reports on the 2026 European Heritage Awards spotlighting two contrasting models for “saving” sacred buildings as Europe confronts the future of its increasingly empty churches. The article presents the restoration of the Church of Escuelas Pías in Valencia, Spain, and the adaptive reuse of the Benedictine Monastery of San Benedetto Po in Italy as exemplary projects, while also mentioning the controversial conversion of the Sint-Anna church in Ghent, Belgium, into a supermarket, restaurant, and wine bar. The piece frames the debate through the lens of heritage conservation, community engagement, and sustainability, quoting figures from Europa Nostra, COMECE (the Commission of the Bishops’ Conferences of the European Union), and Future for Religious Heritage. Notably, the article treats the decline of church attendance as a fait accompli and presents the “reuse” of sacred spaces—including commercial repurposing—as a pragmatic solution, while merely noting that “not all forms of reuse are equally welcomed.” The entire framing is symptomatic of the post-conciliar Church’s capitulation to secularism and its abandonment of the supernatural mission of the Church, reducing sacred architecture to mere cultural heritage rather than temples dedicated to the worship of the true God.
On May 13, 2026 — the feast of the so-called “Our Lady of Fátima” — the Colombian episcopal conference, led by Archbishop Francisco Javier Múnera Correa, will preside over the consecration of Colombia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. The event, organized by lay groups and supported by the conciliar “bishops,” includes the Rosary, a Novus Ordo “Mass,” Eucharistic adoration, and a candlelit procession in Bogotá’s Plaza de Bolívar. The theme: “Colombia’s Peace and Reconciliation Are Built Upon the Conversion of Your Heart.” Archbishop Múnera invited Colombians worldwide to join, asking the “mother of the Lord” to “rekindle hope” and “intercede for reconciliation and peace.” The NCRegister portal reports this as a straightforward act of Catholic devotion. It is nothing of the sort. Beneath the veneer of piety lies a litany of theological errors, modernist assumptions, and a dangerous reliance on a dubious private revelation that has served, for over a century, as a tool to divert the faithful from the true crisis within the Church: the modernist apostasy inaugurated by the Second Vatican Council and its aftermath.
EWTN News portal reports on May 11, 2026, about annual ecumenical gatherings at Bílá Hora (White Mountain) in the Czech Republic, where Catholics and Protestants commemorate the 1620 battle that ended the Bohemian Protestant revolt. The event, organized by the lay group “Smíření Bílá hora” since 2020, aims to transform a “historic religious wound” into an occasion for “reconciliation,” with the support of the Czech Bishops’ Conference and the approval of antipope Francis. This initiative, framed as healing past divisions, is in reality a profound act of apostasy that betrays the Catholic martyrs, denies the exclusive truth of the Faith, and advances the modernist agenda of religious indifferentism condemned by the perennial Magisterium.
