Leo XIV's New German Nuncio Is Typical Francis-era Diplomat
Today, Leo XIV has appointed Archbishop Hubertus van Megen as Apostolic Nuncio to Germany.
A Dutch prelate born in 1961, van Megen was ordained for Roermond in 1987 and entered the Vatican diplomatic service.
His career includes postings in Somalia, Brazil, Malawi, Sudan, and Eritrea.
In 2014, Pope Francis appointed him nuncio to Sudan. Cardinal Pietro Parolin consecrated him a bishop.
He later served as nuncio to Kenya and South Sudan, while also acting as the Holy See’s observer to the United Nations Environment Programme and UN-Habitat in Nairobi. After twelve years as nuncio in Africa, van Megen’s move to Germany may amount to a cultural shock.
Archbishop van Megen emerges as a typical Francis-era field diplomat: shaped by the Global South, active in UN frameworks, and strongly aligned with interreligious and ecological initiatives.
His expansive praise of Francis places him firmly within the current Vatican trajectory.

Priest’s chilling account of shooting in Nigerian Church on Easter | Shalom World News
This Catholic priest’s testimony from St. Augustine Catholic Church, Kachia Local Government Area of Kaduna State, has revealed the horror of an Easter night attack in Nigeria, where armed assailants opened fire on worshippers gathered to celebrate Easter. The attack occurred late at night at the height of the celebrations, triggering panic as people fled for safety. Several worshippers were killed, including members of the Catholic community and an altar server. He described the incident as a “coordinated and intentional attack,” alleging that Christians were deliberately targeted during a sacred moment of worship. The gunmen reportedly struck quickly and escaped before security forces arrived. The incident highlights ongoing insecurity and the persistent persecution of Christians in parts of Nigeria. Despite threats and repeated violence, many continue to gather in faith, even as fear grows over …আরও
Ritualistic Behaviors in Everyday Life
Do you recognize any of these bizarre (but common) rituals in your daily life? I'm talking about waiting in ridiculously long lines, purchasing "must have" consumer goods with pagan logos, or wearing face diapers whenever a cold comes along.
Vatican Blocks Continuity of Procedure of Beatification and Canonization of Argentine Bishop
Vatican Blocks Continuity of Procedure of Beatification and Canonization of Argentine Bishop -- no new Satanellis
One of the most shocking forced beatifications of the Francis pontificate was that of Bishop Angelelli, a terrorist-supporting Bishop from Argentina, who died in an automobile accident, but was deemed a martyr. He was so liberal, so cruel against orthodox Catholics, and so against any orthodox causes in his lifetime, that serious Catholics in Argentina mocked him by calling him "Satanelli" during his own lifetime.
Another extreme liberal bishop, Jorge Novak, of Quilmes, was also placed by Francis on a fast track to beatification and canonization. Thankfully, with the new pontificate, the fast tracking is being reexamined, and, in Novak's case, at least one serious impediment has been found: his lax conduct regarding the case of at least one abusive priest under his care.
The announcement of the Vatican derailment of the cause was made public yesterday by the local diocese:

Leo XIV Appoints French Bishop – Who Helped Turn Away Roman Rite Catholics
On 8 April, Pope Leo XIV appointed Monsignor Benoît Aubert, 53, as Bishop of Limoges, France.
A priest of the Archdiocese of Paris, he has served as pastor of the Dourdan–Bienheureuse-Marie-Poussepin pastoral sector in the Diocese of Évry-Corbeil-Essonnes since 2022, as well as serving as chaplain at Notre-Dame de l’Ouÿe, a retreat centre belonging to the Archdiocese of Paris.
He succeeds Bishop Pierre-Antoine Bozo, who was appointed coadjutor bishop of La Rochelle on 19 August 2025.
Listening, accompaniment and closeness
As episcopal vicar for young adults in Paris, Monsignor Aubert described his role as receiving what young people entrust to him, including "the most intimate, even the most disturbing" experiences, and becoming a kind of "receptacle of hearts".
On OeuvreDesVocations.fr, he highlights the "synodal method" of "conversation in the Spirit" in his pastoral approach.

Abby Martin Went To Israel. IT'S WORSE Than You Think
Every country has both good and bad. Israel has such a small portion of good people, that sometimes I don't think they count. It's disgusting for anyone to support them. I see a lot of evil they do, but I don't post much at all on them so that no hate will be stirred in the people. I try to avoid it as much as I can GOD help those who support Israel and what they are doing not only in Israel but other countries like Lebanon, Iran etc. GOD Bless Abby and those who aren't afraid of showing the truth about Israel.
Vatican Suspends Beatification of Argentine Bishop Who Ordained Homosexual Abusive Priest
The Vatican has suspended the beatification process of Argentine Bishop Jorge Novak (1928–2001) in October 2025, the Diocese of Quilmes announced on April 4.
Vatican Cardinal Marcello Semeraro revoked the nihil obstat , the authorization to proceed the cause, opened in 2017.
The Diocese of Quilmes received the news "sadly". Monsignor Novak was a staunch liberal with lots of "options for the poor".
The Vatican cited concerns about Novak’s handling of a priest under his authority.
The most substantiated case potentially linked to the Vatican’s decision involves Fr. Rubén Horacio Pardo of Quilmes, although the Vatican has not officially identified the priest in question. He was accused of abusing a 15-year-old boy in 2002.
According to reporting at the time, the victim’s mother stated that several priests had warned Bishop Novak prior to Pardo’s ordination, raising concerns about his suitability for the priesthood. Despite these warnings, Novak ordained the homosexual man.
In 2013, the …আরও
The bishop died in a car accident. He was cruel to Catholics.
The process had been actively advanced by the previous pope, now deceased, who was also Argentine.
Should you do a Holy Hour at a Novus Ordo Parish?
This is a tough decision given the questionable sacraments in many places these days.
If you doubt the validity then just "retire to your room " and pray.
That's all I needed to read. I miss Adoration at my Church a lot. Not only far but it's only once or twice a month. Like @Anthony November there is a n.o. Church near me that I use to go to. They have Adoration often and now I will go whenever I can. Thank you for the post Chris. I was tempted so many times to go but stopped myself. But now I know what to do, thanks to you. GOD Bless you.
