Michael Voris reveals he was freed from homosexual lifestyle by Jesus Christ -Video

April 22, 2016 (LifeSiteNews) – Catholic internet evangelist Michael Voris, the founder of Church Militant and known worldwide for his famous show The Vortex, “where lies and falsehoods are trapped and exposed,” has revealed for the first time that he was actively involved in homosexuality “over a prolonged period of time.”

The internet sensation who has been zealous in exposing error and falsehood even where bishops are concerned, has long admitted he was a revert from a sinful sexual lifestyle, but never before revealed its specific nature.

“I have said many times — in public — that I was in a state of mortal sin, and had I died, I would have been damned,” said Voris in a Vortex episode released Thursday.  “I will now reveal that for most of my years in my thirties, confused about my own sexuality, I lived a life of live-in relationships with homosexual men,” he said. Voris stressed that those grave sins took place before his “reversion to the Faith.”

“Since my reversion, I abhor all these sins, especially in the world of the many, many other sins I have committed having nothing to do with sexuality,” added Voris.

Voris said he decided to reveal the details of his past on the basis of his receipt of information suggesting that “the New York archdiocese is collecting and preparing to quietly filter out details of my past life with the aim of publicly discrediting me, this apostolate and the work here.” But beyond that impetus, Voris says he regrets not revealing the nature of his sins before because it was “limiting God” and perhaps not letting his example inspire others in homosexual lifestyles to turn to God for help.More here-https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/michael-voris-reveals-he-was-freed-from-homosexual-lifestyle-by-jesus-chris

When the Coptic Christians were beheaded by ISIS terrorists last year, at first we were told there were twenty-one of them.

When the Coptic Christians were beheaded by ISIS terrorists last year, at first we were told there were twenty-one of them. However there were only twenty. One was an African from Chad, who was not a Christian. As all the men knelt on the beach and were given a chance to renounce their faith in Christ and to confess Muhammed as the last great prophet of Allah, each of the Coptic believers refused. When the time came for the African from Chad to respond, after hearing of the faith of these Christian men, who refused to deny their Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, he said, ‘Their God is my God.’ And so he died with them, a Christian for only seconds, but one who, nonetheless, was faithful until death.

Target says transgender people can use bathroom that aligns with their identity and dressing rooms.

Target Corp. made it clear that transgender people in its stores are welcome to use the bathroom that aligns with their gender identity.

The statement Tuesday by the Minneapolis-based retailer comes amid debates in many state legislatures over restricting public restroom use to the sex listed on a person’s birth certificate.

While many of those conversations have centered around restrooms in public schools and government buildings, Target appears to be one of the first big-box retailers to take a proactive stance in declaring its position on the matter when it comes to its own restrooms.

While they may not be technically public, restrooms in stores are often the most easily accessible and widely available options outside of people’s homes and workplaces.

Target’s position also extends to its fitting rooms.

“Inclusivity is a core belief at Target,” the company said in a statement on its corporate website. “It’s something we celebrate. We stand for equality and equity, and strive to make our guests and team members feel accepted, respected and welcomed in our stores and workplaces every day.”

POLAND: Eucharistic miracle! Bleeding Host is human cardiac tissue

Eucharistic Miracle in Poland Approved by Bishop After Testing

Sometimes, yes, the supposed “bleeding host” will prove, upon examination, to be mere red bread mold.

But sometimes, a “bleeding host” is put under the microscope and through the tests and it’s discovered to be human cardiac tissue.

In 2013, in Poland, a bleeding host proved to be precisely that, as it was announced today by Bishop Zbigniew Kiernikowski, of the Diocese of Legnica:

“On 25th December, 2013 during the distribution of the Holy Communion, a consecrated Host fell to the floor and then was picked up and placed in a water-filled container (vasculum). Soon after, stains of the red colour appeared. The former Bishop of Legnica, Stefan Cichy, set up a commission to observe the phenomenon. In February 2014, a tiny red fragment of the Host was seperated and put on a corporal. The Commission ordered to take samples in order to conduct the thourough tests by the relevant research institutes.

In the final announcement of the Department of Forensic Medicine we read as follows:

In the histopathological image, the fragments of tissue have been found containing the fragmented parts of the cross striated muscle. (…) The whole (…) is most similar to the heart muscle with alterations that often appear during the agony. The genetic researches indicate the human origin of the tissue.  [Not just normal heart tissue, but distressed heart tissue.]

ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE BISHOP OF LEGNICA /pron. legnitsa/ On the Eucharistic Miracle in St. Jack Parish in Legnica

(translated from Polish)

Sisters and Brothers in Our Lord Jesus Christ!

As The Bishop of Legnica I hereby announce to the public and inform about an event that took place in the parish of St. Jack in Legnica which has the signs of the Eucharistic miracle. On 25th December, 2013 during the distribution of the Holy Communion, a consecrated Host fell to the floor and then was picked up and placed in a water-filled container (vasculum). Soon after, stains of the red colour appeared.  The former Bishop of Legnica, Stefan Cichy, set up a commission to observe the phenomenon. In February 2014, a tiny red fragment of the Host was seperated and put on a corporal. The Commission ordered to take samples in order to conduct the thourough tests by the relevant research institutes.

In the final announcement of the Department of Forensic Medicine we read as follows:  In the histopathological image, the fragments of tissue have been found containing the fragmented parts of the cross striated muscle. (…) The whole (…)  is most similar to the heart muscle with alterations that often appear during the agony. The genetic researches indicate the human origin of the tissue.

In January this year I presented the whole matter to the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith in the Vatican. Today, according to the recommendations of the Holy See, I ordered the parish vicar Andrzej Ziombro to prepare a suitable place for a display of the Relic so that the faithful could give it the proper adoration. Hereby, I also ask for providing the visitors with information and conducting the regular teaching that could help the faithful to have the proper attitude to the eucharistic cult. I also command to form a book to register all received benefits and other miraculous events.

I hope that this will serve to deepen the cult of the Eucharist and will have deep impact on the lives of people facing the Relic. We see the misterious Sign as an extraordinary act of love and goodness of God, who comes to humans in ultimate humiliation.

I cordially ask for your prayer and I bless you

+ Zbigniew Kiernikowski

The Bishop of Legnica

Galgano was very reluctant but at the end, with the Miracle of “THE SWORD IN THE STONE” Galgano became a hermit, consecrated his life to Prayer, Faith, Chastity and Charity, and Love. he died at the age of 33 and was buried at Monte Siepi where he had the vision of The Lord and the 12 Disciples. That is the location of the Abbey of Monte Siepi where the SWORD INTHE STONE is still to be found to date. The SWORD HAS NOT BEEN REMOVED since Saint Galgano had miraculously sliced it into the stone before he became a Hermit- Monk. He died in 1181 and his Feast day is November 30th.

Catholic priest abducted in Yemen safe: Indian minister

CBCI delegation with the minister

New Delhi: The Salesian priest abducted in Yemen is safe and delicate negotiations are on to get him released from Islamic militants, India’s External Affairs Minister told a Church delegation.

The minister, Sushma Swaraj, dismissed as “totally baseless” the rumors about harm done to Fr. Tom Uzhunnalil.

A five-member delegation from the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of India (CBCI) met the minister at her office Saturday evening and discussed all matters related to the release of Fr Uzhunnalil.

The 57-year-old Indian priest was abducted by suspected IS militants from Aden, Yemen’s southern port city, on March 4. The militants also gunned down 16 people who worked in a home for elderly managed by the Missionaries of Charity. Four of the victims were nuns, one from India.

The delegation expressed the Indian Church’s “deep concern and distress” over the fate of Fr. Uzhunnal, whose whereabouts are not known even after 29 days, says a CBCI press statement.

The delegation led by CBCI deputy secretary general Monsignor Joseph Chinnayyan requested the minister to clear the mystery over the priest’s abduction and share the truth about his current status, especially in view of rumors being spread at home and abroad.

News reports on March 28 quoted Austrian media to say that the priest’s abductors had crucified him on Good Friday.

Swaraj categorically assured the delegation that Fr. Uzhunnalil is safe and that the government is adopting all possible means for his quick and safe release. The minister further said the government cannot divulge the details of the negotiations and the technicalities involved as it would endanger the process of release itself.

She also shared with the delegation her ministry’s “strenuous efforts” to procure a safe passage for Sr. Rema, the nun who survived the March 4 attack in Yemen.

The delegation conveyed to the minister the Indian Church’s appreciation for her as well as the Indian government’s various efforts to trace and rescue Fr. Uzhunnalil.

Other members in the delegation were CBCI spokesperson Fr. Gyanprakash Topno; Caritas India Executive Director Fr. Frederick D’Souza; CBCI Secretary for Education Salesian Father Joseph Manipadam, and the secretary for CBCI Legal Matters, Advocate Jose Abraham.
