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?

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.

Leo claims that we must not let the Anglican schism, collection of heresies and invalid orders get in the way of the Catholic Church and Anglican sect; “proclaiming Christ to the world TOGETHER” For those wondering, this is against the Catholic faith.

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.

I allowed distraction and disheartenment to prevent this post today so here it is, better late than never. If you are looking for a church to attend on Sunday, go check out an Orthodox Church. We are original Christianity. Founded at Pentecost in 33 AD, we have by-name Succession back to the Apostles. We are a hospital for the sick, not a courtroom for the guilty. We are a church full of sinners, yet produce holy Saints. Come and see☦️

☦️ The Armenian Monastery of Saint Thaddeus in northwestern Iran. Rising in northwestern Iran near Urmia (specifically the Maku region), the Saint Thaddeus Monastery is one of the oldest and most magnificent Christian monuments in the area. Due to the dark-colored stones of its walls, it is also known by the locals as the 'Black Church' (Qara Kelisa). According to tradition, it was built over the tomb of Saint Thaddeus, one of the apostles of Jesus Christ, who brought Christianity to these lands. Video by Hamed Akbari
