The Catholic Church is the oldest continuously functioning institution... in the world, over 2,000 years old, and it still operates today with a clear line of leadership tracing back to Saint Peter, the first Pope. That means: Every Pope, including the current one, is part of an unbroken chain of succession from the Apostles. The same Church that existed in the time of Jesus Christ is still active today. Despite wars, persecutions, scandals, and global changes, it has never collapsed. 💥 Even more shocking: The Catholic Church runs the largest non-governmental education and healthcare network in the world, more schools, hospitals, and charities than any other organization. So, while empires have risen and fallen…the Church is still standing. A Church founded by Christ himself will never fall.show more

Leaving the Catholic Church because of sinful priests makes... no sense when you look at the Gospel. Jesus chose twelve apostles, and one of them was Judas. Judas betrayed Christ, but the other apostles did not leave Jesus because of it. They stayed with Him, even after seeing scandal, weakness, fear, and betrayal up close. The Church has always had sinners in it because the Church is made up of human beings in need of mercy. That does not change who Jesus is. The Catholic Church is still where Christ gives us the Eucharist, the sacraments, and the truth He entrusted to the apostles. Bad priests cause real damage, and the pain people carry from that should never be ignored or excused. The Church must take sin seriously, especially when souls are harmed. But the failures of some priests do not cancel out the holiness of Christ or the promises He made. Peter denied Jesus three times. Judas betrayed Him. Yet Jesus still built His Church and remained faithful to it. The question is not whether people in the Church will fail. They will. The real question is: when people fail, do we walk away from Jesus too? 💬 What keeps you rooted in the Catholic Church even when members of the Church disappoint you?show more

Many Catholics think that St Peter was the first... Catholic Church that was built, but it wasn’t. St. John Luteran is the very first Catholic church that was built. It has the skulls of St. Peter and St. Paul above the altar and also a piece of wood from the actual table where Jesus had his last supper with his disciples. The Catholic Church knows how to keep history.show more

This is liturgical abuses. And the Pope needs to... see this ! According to Catholic liturgical law and doctrine, Islamic prayer cannot be used as an opening prayer during Mass. The Mass follows a strictly defined structure, and its opening rites are reserved for Catholic prayers and liturgical texts approved by the Church. The Catholic Church teaches that the Mass is the central act of Catholic worship, and its prayers are specifically Christian in nature, directed to God through Jesus Christ. The opening prayer (Collect) is a formal liturgical prayer that must be from the Roman Missal or other approved Catholic sources Introducing Islamic prayer would violate the integrity of the liturgy, which is meant to be a unified expression of Catholic faith.show more

Holy Trinity Catholic Church in Braamfontein, Johannesburg, says it... is deeply saddened and disturbed following a serious act of vandalism and sacrilege that took place ahead of the midday Eucharist yesterday. According to the church, a man entered the building pretending to attend Holy Mass before suddenly launching into a violent outburst. He leapt onto the altar of the Blessed Sacrament, smashed sacred statues, damaged the marble altar, and shouted profanities inside the church. Parishioners preparing for Mass witnessed the incident and were left terrified and traumatised. The church described the attack as heartbreaking, saying Holy Trinity has long been a sanctuary for people seeking peace, prayer, and comfort. Leaders noted that the historic church, which has served the community since 1936, holds important religious and heritage significance and has welcomed people from all walks of life, including the vulnerable and those in distress. Church officials stressed that the damaged objects were not merely decorative items, but sacred symbols representing the faith, heritage, and devotion of the Catholic community. Holy Trinity Catholic Church confirmed it is cooperating fully with authorities investigating the incident and thanked SAPS and the local security company, BadBoyz, for their swift response and support. The church also expressed solidarity with parishioners and community members affected by the shocking incident, saying the faith community remains united despite the attack.show more
