Pope Calls for Yemen Peace, Prays for Jordan Attack Victims After Surgery

Oct 25, 2026 at 01:09 PM EDT Pope Leo XIV on Sunday appealed for an end to hostilities in Yemen and prayed for the victims of an attack on Orthodox Christians in Jordan, as the pontiff gradually resumes his public duties following lung cancer surgery. “I am following with concern the grave humanitarian situation in Yemen, particularly in the city of Taiz, where the population is suffering from a lack of food, water and medical care,” the pope wrote in a post on X. Leo issued a “heartfelt appeal” for a cessation of hostilities to allow civilians in Yemen and the wider region to live in peace. He also expressed solidarity with the victims of violence in Jordan, highlighting the country's tradition of peaceful coexistence among religious communities. The remarks mark the latest public appearance for the 71-year-old pontiff, who is recovering from surgery performed less than two weeks ago…

The number of priests killed in Russia’s war against Ukraine is rising

Priest Viktor Ivanov has been baptising Russian soldiers on the front line. Credit: Viktor Ivanov/VK The human cost of the conflict was also at the center of a meeting at the Vatican on October 23, when Pope Leo XIV received Major Archbishop Sviatoslav Shevchuk, head of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church. The encounter brought together two urgent concerns: the fate of Ukrainians held captive by Russia and the worsening humanitarian pressures facing a country preparing for another harsh winter. A central part of that effort has been the Vatican’s work on behalf of prisoners of war, detained civilians and Ukrainian children transferred away from their places of origin. Shevchuk handed Leo a list of hundreds of prisoners held in Russia, continuing a practice from previous meetings. During an audience in February 2026, he had delivered a list containing 400 names. The Vatican’s diplomatic…

The Anti-Church—Machinery of Control

“And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark…” — Revelation 13:17 The Anti-Church isn’t a building or a denomination. It isn’t a government or an institution. It’s a subconscious pattern—and it can be resisted, but only when enough people become aware of what they’re participating in. It’s what Jung called enantiodromia: the tendency of a thing, pushed toward an extreme, to turn into its opposite. Not by plan. By pressure. You start out defending something true, and somewhere along the way you become the thing you were defending against. You don’t notice it happening because you’re busy defending the original position with the same methods as the opposition. Watch how it happens. The Church assumed the authority to bind and loose. To forgive. To open the door. Then it became the same institution Jesus came up against. The power to forgive became the power to record. The…

American politicians talk about persecuted Christians abroad – but here’s what happens when those Christians migrate to the US

(STARKVILLE, MISS.) Two months ago, Terez Metry arrived at a Department of Homeland Security office in Nashville with her husband, a U.S. citizen, expecting a routine step in beginning her green card application. The couple had prepared documents for a Form I-130 petition and anticipated an interview about their marriage. But the appointment took a different turn. Instead of leaving together, immigration officers detained Metry and transferred her to an immigration detention facility in Alabama. Metry’s family had fled Egypt during the Arab Spring – the 2011 wave of uprisings across the Middle East and North Africa – and came to the United States when she was a teenager. Their asylum claim was denied, and Metry was unaware that a removal order had been issued when she was 13. She is now 28. Metry is a Coptic Christian. Copts belong to one of the oldest Christian communities in the world…
