With the major missile strikes in Russia, something Russia just told the West NOT TO DO, things change NOW. Hopefully, through God’s mercy, we will see a de-escalation. Listen to Our Lady of Fatima and her requests. Pray the Rosary!
A Proposed Response to the Migrant Crisis: A New Catholic Ministry!
“It will not matter who wins the election. The flood of illegals have a purpose in the overall plan that has been unfolding. Chaos as far and wide as possible.”

It’s Spreading: America’s Top Oil Field Terrorized by Armed Cuban and Venezuelan Gangs
We’ve seen a lot in the news lately about what’s going on in America due to the influx of illegal foreigners, to the tune of millions. We’ve heard about the terrible situations in Colorado, Ohio and New York, along with the above, in Texas. The migrant (as opposed to “immigrant”), or “human migration” crisis, is not limited to the United States. Great Britain has recently declared a national emergency due to civil unrest and other European countries continue to suffer with these issues. Human migration has dramatically increased in the Western world in the past several years. This is part of a globalist agenda to destroy Christendom and re-settle the earth for the benefit of the elites and their New World Order/Great Reset.
The West is not getting the cream-of-the-crop from other nations. Not only are they bringing crime, to add insult to injury, many of the crimes are going unpunished. This is not to say all migrants are bad people. But many of them do not share our “Western Values,” which the World Economic Forum openly predicted would soon be “tested to the breaking point.” The Weffers say what they mean and they mean what they say. They are not simply abstractionist loons cavorting in luxurious ski villages. They are actually implementing their insane agendas before our very eyes. Part of the plan is to provoke civil war. They love anything that is destructive, because it gives them more power and more of an opportunity to crack down with martial law, advancing their plans.
What the Devil wants is to place hate in our hearts. We must remain vigilant about this. Hate and violence is never the answer. Love is.
“Put up again thy sword into its place: for all that take the sword shall perish with the sword.”
Matthew 26:52
We have to be strategic and prayerful in our responses to the globalist occultist elites. We can glean what they want by what they are provoking. What do they really NOT want? More Catholics. This is why the traditional Church is being persecuted by various entities (including the FBI-look that up if you don’t know the story). This is why our beliefs are being attacked from every possible avenue, from within and from without.
While working toward more sane immigration policies, what do we do in the meantime?
How about a new Catholic ministry, with a missionary mindset, to convert the migrants?
If you don’t feel love for the migrant people, pray for this grace and it will be given to you. As CS Lewis said in Mere Christianity, if you only act as if you love someone, actual love will follow. This will require certain skill-sets. This job is not for everyone, just as not everyone is called to work on the pro-life front-lines. Missionary work has never been safe or easy. It is often frowned upon by those in power and has spawned many martyrs. Ministering to migrants will require knowing their language and being “willing to march into Hell for that Heavenly cause.”
Are you being called? Pray on it!
+++ Feast of the Assumption +++ / Migrant Crisis in New York City
O Holy Virgin Mary, on the glorious feast of your Assumption, pray for us!
From the Tridentine Mass:
A great sign appeared in heaven: A
woman clothed with the sun, and the
moon under her feet, and on her head
a crown of twelve stars. Sing ye to the Lord a new canticle:
because He hath done wonderful
things.
Almighty everlasting God, who hast
taken body and soul into heaven the
Immaculate Virgin Mary, Mother of Thy
Son: grant, we beseech Thee, that by
steadfastly keeping heaven as our
goal we may be counted worthy to join
her in glory.
The Lord hath blessed thee by His
power, because by thee He hath
brought our enemies to nought.
Blessed art thou, O daughter, by the
Lord the most high God, above all
women upon the earth. Blessed be the
Lord who made heaven and earth,
who hath directed thee to the cutting
off the head of the prince of our
enemies. Because He hath so
magnified thy name this day that thy
praise shall not depart out of the
mouth of men who shall be mindful of
the power of the Lord, for ever.

The End of the Dollar as the World's Reserve Currency? What They Said Could Never Happen....
I like Andy Schectman and I also like Kitco News. Here, Andy is interviewed by Michelle Makori. The Petrodollar deal which Kissinger made with Saudi Arabia is discussed, along with Nixon’s departure from gold-backing and the world’s current moving away from the dollar. There’s a one-hour video and a short article…
End of the Petrodollar?
Excerpts from the article:
Saudi Arabia reportedly let the 50-year petro-dollar agreement expire on June 9th, opting to sell oil in multiple currencies instead of exclusively using the U.S. dollar. Andy Schectman, President and Owner of Miles Franklin Precious Metals, warns that if the "petro" is taken from the "dollar," the U.S. currency will be backed by "nothing," which could trigger "catastrophic" consequences…
The foundation of the petrodollar system lies in a 1974 agreement between Saudi Arabia and the United States. Under this deal, Saudi Arabia agreed to recycle its petrodollars into U.S. Treasuries in exchange for a security guarantee from the U.S., creating a strategic alliance that has significantly influenced global politics for decades. By 1975, all OPEC members had agreed to price oil in dollars and invest in U.S. government debt…
If the U.S. dollar is no longer the primary payment option for oil, Schectman foresees a massive spike in interest rates as one of the consequences, with the situation getting quite chaotic for the U.S.
“If this happened all at once, it would be catastrophic. It would be chaotic because the natural reaction of the dollar being dumped globally is hyperinflation. It would hit our shores in a tsunami of inflation,” Schectman said. “The dollar would collapse, the stock market would collapse, the bond market would collapse, the banking system would collapse, the insurance companies would collapse. Everything. This is the great reset.”
…The move away from using the U.S. dollar in international trade transactions is not new, but it has been accelerating…
Update
I know this month’s output has been light, but I hope some of you have tried my homemaker hacks (men can do them too!). Feel free to share yours as well, and we may post them.
We’ve been working on our house and will be, for the rest of the year. I will have to try to balance it all a bit better. We’ve been hiking as a family and spending some wonderful times together...and I’ve been working on my healthcare. These are always great and necessary things, but with the continued degrading of the state of the world, it seems more urgent than ever…to push forward, take advantage of opportunities while we still can, and stop and smell the roses. Geopolitical tensions are tighter than they have been in decades and there is concern about the upcoming US elections (or possible failure to hold elections at all, as some are predicting).
I would urge all our readers to print the “15 Points Preparedness Worksheet” (see link on Home page) and work on it with your family. Also, please print our “Eclipse Pilgrimage of Mercy” supplemental prayers. Included is Cardinal Burke’s 9-Month Novena to Our Lady of Guadalupe and a prayer for the United States.
I have also been getting ready for my trip to the Catholic Land Movement Conference at Our Lady of Martyrs Shrine in northern New York (about a 4-hour trip for me), this coming weekend! I’m so excited, it is my first time there. This is a traditional Catholic organization and the Tridentine Mass will be offered. These are the kinds of things I do as research and networking, to bring the knowledge I aquire, to all of you. I hope to share some pictures and some of what I will learn, in the coming days. It’s going to be like a retreat/agrarian/prepper learning experience all in one! There will be wonderful Catholic devotions and confession, along with workshops and social time. There is an optional farm visit, where animals will be slaughtered, which I will be attending. Some of the workshops I plan to go to are “Garden Planning at Home,” “Wells and Spring Development,” and a presentation of 2 faith-centered farms. I also hope to attend Chris Martenson’s Peak Prosperity Annual Summit 2024 in New Hampshire in September (the early-bird rate is ending June 30). I attended his conference last year in Massachusetts and it was life-changing.
Due to the fact that I will be away this weekend, our Month of July post may be a day or 2 late. God bless you all and your families! Chiara F Mathews:)

Andrew Cuomo Admits Covid Mandates Were Unlawful!
In the wake of the Main Stream Media finally admitting the mRNA shots maybe sorta kinda weren’t all that great…
In a stunning change of narrative, former (dishonorably discharged) New York Governor Andrew Cuomo had this to say to Dr. Leana Wen (one of the main mouthpieces for the Goebbels-style Covid and “anti-vaxxer” fear propaganda, also former Planned Parenthood President):
"Government had no capacity to enforce any of this. ‘You must wear a mask.’ People wore masks in New York. If they said 'I'm not wearing a mask' there was nothing I could do about it. You must close your private business. 'I won't'. There was nothing I could really do about it. It was really all voluntary.”
Seriously? Re-writing history here!
As a New Yorker who suffered horribly during that time and witnessed the suffering of those around me with various human rights abuses, I hardly have any words in response to this.
If these mandates were not enforceable, then they MUST HAVE BEEN ILLEGAL. Is Cuomo actually saying there were no mandates? Tell that to the people who lost their businesses, lost teeth due to dental care lockdown, could not attend religious services at a time when they needed God the most, were forced to leave burials because they had more than 10 people, were thrown out of stores for having the mask under the nose, were refused public toilet facilities, not allowed access to almost everything in NYC if not “vaxxed,” forced Covid tests (nose rapes), told to stand on dots and remain 6 feet apart, separated like cattle, subjected to constant auditory and visual mind control…all of this resulting in increased OD’s, suicides, car fatalities and dysfunction of all sorts. SAFE & HEALTHY!
In fairness to Cuomo, it’s true there were many who were so quick to become the “prison guards,” lording their power over others in an almost sadistic way. And others who happily embraced it all because of fear…of what? Illness? Death? No trust in God. No ability to look around and see with their own eyes how extreme, unnecessary and in fact, counter-productive these measures were. Mass Formation Psychosis. This was no Spanish Flu or Black Plague, and even if it was, these measures would still have been grossly wrong. Let us learn that if something is not observable, do not believe it. Because these psychopaths are not done yet. (Example: Earthquakes and hurricanes are not a sign of climate change. They happen.) When true crises do occur, the real solution is prayer and repentance, not tyranny.
Cuomo laments how terrible it is that “people do not trust the government” anymore. Are we supposed to trust the government? Why should we? The American Founders were acutely aware of the dangers of leaders gone wrong. After all, they waged war against their own King George. That’s why they wrote checks and balances into the system and further warned of potential dangers of corruption. Well, here we are.

"Financial Armageddon is Now Baked in the Cake"
"The Real Panic Hasn’t Even Started Yet, Part 1”
Chris Martenson, Peak Prosperity
The video above is a great introduction to understanding the current state of the financial system of the US…and that we are on an unsustainable path (admitted by Jerome Powell), which is nearing the breaking point. This is well worth the 44 minutes of your time today. For the adults remaining in the room, we have a responsibility to ourselves, our loved ones and to Holy Church, to be awake and respond appropriately to as is said below, “the hand we are dealt.”
Here are Martenson’s notes on the video:
“The core insights that define the Peak Prosperity way of seeing the world are set against real-world data in this episode. Energy, debt, wealth, currency, GDP, & the fiscal vandalism of Congress combine to assure that the future will consist of hard choices as we navigate self-inflicted predicaments…Staying on top of and making sense out of the world is a real problem these days. At times like these, I like to back way up and take a wide-angle, big-picture view of the situation. When I do, things clarify, although I often wish that the picture were more benign or hopeful. Alas, we play the hand we are dealt. Once enough people see things this same way, and we cross over the common knowledge boundary line, real financial panic will set in. That’s how it will be perceived and reported on, but it will actually be a sudden and quite necessary realignment between what we have been conditioned to think of as wealth and real wealth. The difference is between primary and secondary wealth which are real and tangible, and tertiary wealth which is abstract and nothing more than a claim on real, tangible wealth. Cash only has value if you can buy something with it.
To understand this and then act on it, it’s essential to grasp the connection between oil and the economy, and the degree to which our economy is fictional due to its dependence on the perpetual expansion of debt at a rate that far exceeds the underlying economy’s rate of growth. It’s a complicated set of connections, to be sure, but vital to grasp. Armed with this information and framing, you will be far in front of the rest of your fellow humans and able to more gracefully navigate the emerging risks and opportunities.”
