Father James Martin’s Homosexual Agenda

In his 2017 book, Building a Bridge: How the Catholic Church and the L.G.B.T Community Can Enter Into a Relationship of Respect, Compassion, and Sensitivity, Fr. Martin says of homosexuality that “some bishops have already called for the church to set aside the phrase ‘objectively disordered’” in the Catechism.

Live Adoration of Jesus

Live Perpetual Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, hosted by Our Lady of Sorrows Church in Birmingham, Alabama. Adore Jesus anytime during your day for relief, rest, relaxation, or just to re-energize your day. ​

The saint wiped his face with a handkerchief, & later a mysterious image appeared on it.  A Shroud of Turin expert says the image is acheropita – not made by human hands. . .
