13 And Jesus came into the quarters of Caesarea Philippi: and he asked his disciples, saying: Whom do men say that the Son of man is?Venit autem Jesus in partes Caesareae Philippi : et interrogabat discipulos suos, dicens : Quem dicunt homines esse Filium hominis? 14 But they said: Some John the Baptist, and other some Elias, and others Jeremias, or one of the prophets.At illi dixerunt : Alii Joannem Baptistam, alii autem Eliam, alii vero Jeremiam, aut unum ex prophetis. 15 Jesus saith to them: But whom do you say that I am?Dicit illis Jesus : Vos autem, quem me esse dicitis? 16 Simon Peter answered and said: Thou art Christ, the Son of the living God.Respondens Simon Petrus dixit : Tu es Christus, Filius Dei vivi. 17 And Jesus answering, said to him: Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-Jona: because flesh and blood hath not revealed it to thee, but my Father who is in heaven.Respondens autem Jesus, dixit ei : Beatus es Simon Bar Jona : quia caro et sanguis non revelavit tibi, sed Pater meus, qui in caelis est. 18 And I say to thee: That thou art Peter; and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.Et ego dico tibi, quia tu es Petrus, et super hanc petram aedificabo Ecclesiam meam, et portae inferi non praevalebunt adversus eam. 19 And I will give to thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven. And whatsoever thou shalt bind upon earth, it shall be bound also in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose upon earth, it shall be loosed also in heaven.Et tibi dabo claves regni caelorum. Et quodcumque ligaveris super terram, erit ligatum et in caelis : et quodcumque solveris super terram, erit solutum et in caelis.[18] "Thou art Peter": As St. Peter, by divine revelation, here made a solemn profession of his faith of the divinity of Christ; so in recompense of this faith and profession, our Lord here declares to him the dignity to which he is pleased to raise him: viz., that he to whom he had already given the name of Peter, signifying a rock, St. John 1. 42, should be a rock indeed, of invincible strength, for the support of the building of the church; in which building he should be, next to Christ himself, the chief foundation stone, in quality of chief pastor, ruler, and governor; and should have accordingly all fulness of ecclesiastical power, signified by the keys of the kingdom of heaven.[18] "Upon this rock": The words of Christ to Peter, spoken in the vulgar language of the Jews which our Lord made use of, were the same as if he had said in English, Thou art a Rock, and upon this rock I will build my church. So that, by the plain course of the words, Peter is here declared to be the rock, upon which the church was to be built: Christ himself being both the principal foundation and founder of the same. Where also note, that Christ, by building his house, that is, his church, upon a rock, has thereby secured it against all storms and floods, like the wise builder, [Matt 7:24-25].[18] "The gates of hell": That is, the powers of darkness, and whatever Satan can do, either by himself, or his agents. For as the church is here likened to a house, or fortress, built on a rock; so the adverse powers are likened to a contrary house or fortress, the gates of which, that is, the whole strength, and all the efforts it can make, will never be able to prevail over the city or church of Christ. By this promise we are fully assured, that neither idolatry, heresy, nor any pernicious error whatsoever shall at any time prevail over the church of Christ.[19] "Loose upon earth": The loosing the bands of temporal punishments due to sins, is called an indulgence; the power of which is here granted.St Silverius was exiled by order of the Empress Theodosia to the Island of Pontus, where he died, after many privations and sufferings, A.D. 538.

16 He that heareth you, heareth me; and he that despiseth you, despiseth me; and he that despiseth me, despiseth him that sent me.Qui vos audit, me audit : et qui vos spernit, me spernit. Qui autem me spernit, spernit eum qui misit me. 17 And the seventy-two returned with joy, saying: Lord, the devils also are subject to us in thy name.Reversi sunt autem septuaginta duo cum gaudio, dicentes : Domine, etiam daemonia subjiciuntur nobis in nomine tuo. 18 And he said to them: I saw Satan like lightning falling from heaven.Et ait illis : Videbam Satanam sicut fulgor de caelo cadentem. 19 Behold, I have given you power to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and upon all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall hurt you.Ecce dedi vobis potestatem calcandi supra serpentes, et scorpiones, et super omnem virtutem inimici : et nihil vobis nocebit. 20 But yet rejoice not in this, that spirits are subject unto you; but rejoice in this, that your names are written in heaven.Verumtamen in hoc nolite gaudere quia spiritus vobis subjiciuntur : gaudete autem, quod nomina vestra scripta sunt in caelis.Vitus, born of the illustrious Sicilian family, was arrested with his tutor and his nurse. After many sufferings, they were martyred A.D. 303.

The Trump administration is set to kick off a so-called “America 250 celebration” with a massive MAGA Rally called the 'Great American State Fair'—but so many of the musical guests backed out over its ties to Trump that it's unclear if it will still happen or who will perform, except of course for Trump himself. Meanwhile, progressive organizers, including Linda Sarsour, are moving forward with other plans. On June 27, there will be a massive mobilization in DC organized by a coalition called NEXT 250 to host events that stand for democracy, dignity, equality, truth, and collective freedom. New Yorkers will also have a chance to revisit New York City's history on June 19 & 20 at Reclamation Day: A Reunion of Hope pulled together by BLIS (Black Liberation Indigenous Sovereignty). We spoke with Trevor Smith of BLIS about the Reclamation Day event which will be held at 25 Kent Street in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.

9 And when you shall hear of wars and seditions, be not terrified: these things must first come to pass; but the end is not yet presently.Cum autem audieritis praelia et seditiones, nolite terreri : oportet primum haec fieri, sed nondum statim finis. 10 Then he said to them: Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.Tunc dicebat illis : Surget gens contra gentem, et regnum adversus regnum. 11 And there shall be great earthquakes in divers places, and pestilences, and famines, and terrors from heaven; and there shall be great signs.Et terraemotus magni erunt per loca, et pestilentiae, et fames, terroresque de caelo, et signa magna erunt. 12 But before all these things, they will lay their hands upon you, and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues and into prisons, dragging you before kings and governors, for my name's sake.Sed ante haec omnia injicient vobis manus suas, et persequentur tradentes in synagogas et custodias, trahentes ad reges et praesides propter nomen meum : 13 And it shall happen unto you for a testimony.continget autem vobis in testimonium. 14 Lay it up therefore into your hearts, not to meditate before how you shall answer:Ponite ergo in cordibus vestris non praemeditari quemadmodum respondeatis : 15 For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall not be able to resist and gainsay.ego enim dabo vobis os et sapientiam, cui non poterunt resistere et contradicere omnes adversarii vestri. 16 And you shall be betrayed by your parents and brethren, and kinsmen and friends; and some of you they will put to death.Trademini autem a parentibus, et fratribus, et cognatis, et amicis, et morte afficient ex vobis : 17 And you shall be hated by all men for my name's sake.et eritis odio omnibus propter nomen meum : 18 But a hair of your head shall not perish.et capillus de capite vestro non peribit. 19 In your patience you shall possess your souls.In patientia vestra possidebitis animas vestras.St Marcellins, a Priest, and Peter, a young exorcist, were beheaded after fearful torments A.D. 302.

Comrades from the CPGB-ML visited the London Soviet Memorial, erected in 1999, to honour the 27 million Soviet citizens who gave their lives to smash fascism which secured the success of revolutions across the world and marked the beginning of the world's exit out of the explicit colonial era (with neocolonialism taking its place). Today, the history of who contributed the most towards this victory has been distorted by the Western imperialist states; it is no longer the Soviet Union in their history books but the U.S, the U.K, France et cetera. ______________________________________________ Subscribe!

In this episode of EMS One-Stop, Rob Lawrence travels to New York City to sit down with Lillian Bonsignore, the 37th Commissioner of the Fire Department of the City of New York (FDNY). A 30-plus year veteran who rose through the ranks of EMS — from EMT in the South Bronx to Chief of EMS and now Commissioner — Bonsignore brings a ground-up understanding of the largest fire-EMS system in the United States. She reflects on stepping into the role as “walking onto a fast-moving train,” immediately confronted with major incidents, severe weather and system pressures, while simultaneously building her leadership team and setting direction for the future. | MORE: ‘We have to right the ship': FDNY commissioner doubles down on EMS pay parity The conversation explores the unique structure of FDNY, where the Commissioner operates as the executive leader “almost like CEO of the company,” while operational command sits with the Chief of Department. Bonsignore is clear-eyed about the scale and demands of the system: over 2.2 million runs annually, with 1.6 million EMS-related, reinforcing her long-held position that EMS must be treated as an essential service with appropriate funding and career pathways. Drawing on her experience leading through the COVID-19 pandemic and responding on Sept. 11, 2001, she emphasizes resilience, communication and presence — being visible in stations, honest with staff and committed to supporting those who “leave their own families behind to go serve a stranger.” Bonsignore also addresses criticism of her appointment directly and without hesitation, framing it as a misunderstanding of the Commissioner's role and the realities of modern emergency response. She underscores that FDNY is both fire and EMS, and that her career — spanning 9/11 response, pandemic leadership and decades of frontline service — positions her to lead the entire enterprise. Looking ahead, she speaks to the need for infrastructure investment, workforce stabilization, mental health support, and the thoughtful adoption of technologies such as AI and body-worn cameras. As FDNY approaches the 25th anniversary of 9/11 and the nation's 250th year, her focus remains clear: support the workforce, strengthen the system, and prepare the department for the next generation of service. Key quotes from Commissioner Bonsignore “Walking into a position like this is like walking onto a fast-moving train.” “I understand the ground level challenges that go on because I lived them.” “The commissioner is the administrative level, almost like CEO of the company.” “We're responding to over 2.2 million runs a year … 1.6 million of those runs are EMS-related runs.” “We have to stabilize our system … it's time that EMS is finally treated as an essential service.” “I will always tell you the truth. You may not like my truth, but I will give it to you.” “The decision of a first responder is to leave their own families behind … to go serve a stranger.” “They are literally your heroes … they will put their lives on the line for you.” Episode timeline 01:10 – First 100 days as Commissioner — “fast-moving train” 02:30 – Career journey and EMS roots shaping leadership 04:30 – Workforce trust, credibility and lived experience 06:30 – Pay parity and EMS as an essential service 09:00 – Structure of FDNY — Commissioner vs. operational command 11:30 – Setting direction and stabilizing the organization 13:30 – Relationship with the Mayor and political leadership 17:30 – Addressing criticism and misconceptions 19:30 – Leading through COVID — scale, innovation, mutual aid 23:30 – Morale, resilience and leadership presence 26:30 – Recruitment and retention challenges 30:30 – AI and future innovation in EMS 32:30 – Behavioral health response and BeHeard program 36:30 – First responder mental health and support systems 38:30 – Violence against EMS and workforce protection 41:00 – Body-worn cameras and transparency 43:30 – 9/11 reflections and legacy 50:30 – Commemoration planning and future outlook Enjoying the show?

Adam Kline is director of intercultural missions at the Free Methodist Church in Canada. Jonathan Maracle is a Mohawk musician from Tyendinaga, not far from Kline's home in Belleville, Ont. They reflect with host Bill Fledderus about how our ethnic background can influence church practices and theology. Maracle's music career launched at an important event called Sacred Assembly back in 1995, and he and Kline recently attended a 30th anniversary of it in January 2026, which lead to discussion about how church understandings around Indigenous culture have changed over those years.

"This monk died joyfully because he had never in his life condemned anyone. He was lazy, careless, disinclined to prayer, but throughout his entire life he had never judged anyone. And when he lay dying, he was full of joy. The brethren asked him how he could die so joyfully with all his sins, and he replied: 'I have just seen the angels, and they showed me a page with all my many sins. I said to them: "The Lord said: 'Judge not, that ye be not judged.' I have never judged anyone and I hope in the mercy of God, that He will not judge me." And the angels tore up the sheet of paper.' Hearing this, the monks wondered at it and learned from it." (From the Prologue)

The bid by the Prime Minister's Office to strike the word "massacre" from a bill on October 7 commemorations, and Culture and Sports Minister Miki Zohar's claim that the term evokes "victimhood," has sparked outrage. Avi Dabush, CEO of Rabbis for Human Rights and a resident of Kibbutz Nirim in the Gaza periphery, told KAN's Naomi Segal that Zohar's comments and the revision of the bill's title show the disconnect of the leadership from Israelis, and underscore the need for change. Dabush was barricaded with his family in the safe room of his home during the October 7th terrorist onslaught and then displaced for nearly two years. He returned to Nirim this past summer.

Katie talks to former Army ranger Greg Stoker who is in Minneapolis about the protests; Palestinian analyst Mouin Rabbani about Gaza; Mahmoud Khalil's lawyer about his case; and Holocaust survivor Stephen Kapos and historian Haim Bresheeth Zabner about Holocaust Memorial Day and how the Holocaust is being used to justify the genocide in Gaza. Watch the full interview on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/posts/patreon-full-149337782 Stephen Kapos is an 87-year-old Holocaust survivor from Budapest who has been protesting against Israel's war on Gaza, which he describes as not only genocide but a holocaust. Stephen is a member of Holocaust Survivors Against Genocide. Stephen lost 15 members of his extended family in the Holocaust and his father was interned in Belsen & Theresienstadt. He settled in London but when he visited Israel was “shocked” by the racism exhibited by Israelis, including his relatives who had also survived the Holocaust. Stephen joined The Labour Party in 1997, becoming an activist and office-holder at various local levels. Stephen resigned from the Labour party, after penning a widely circulated letter, after the Labour party warned him they would “investigate” him if he spoke at a leftist organization on Holocaust Memorial Day. He is a member of Camden branch of PSC (Palestine Solidarity Campaign), Camden & Islington Momentum (affiliate of the Labour Party) and lately of the small network ‘Holocaust Survivors and Descendants Against Genocide.' Haim Bresheeth Zabnner was Professor of Media and Cultural Studies at University of East London and then a Professorial Research Associate at the School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS).He is Filmmaker, photographer, film studies scholar, and historian.

On November 4, Haim was arrested over a speech he gave at a pro Palestine demonstration outside the residence of Israeli ambassador Tzipi Hotovely in north London. Greg Stoker is a former United States Army Ranger. He has a background in special operations and human intelligence collection. He conducted 4 combat deployments to Afghanistan during the unfortunately named “Global War On Terror” and is now an anti-war activist, host of the Colonial Outcasts Podcast, and analyst at MintPress News.

Military Historian, Author, and Battlefield Guide Paul Reed join Sean to discuss a BBC documentary that he took part in, Meet The Ancestors Series 5, Episode 3: The Forgotten Battlefield. The documentary details a group of amateur archaeologists called The Diggers, who discovered a complex trench system over 200 fallen soldiers, in the Ieper (Ypres) and Boesinghe (now Boezinge).In an act of what Paul describes as "rescue archaeology" the diggers and historians-including Paul himself, race against time to uncover as much as they can before the area is completely covered by the building of an industrial estate. Paul also talks about what happened after the cameras stopped rolling.From the educational remit of British television in the early 2000's, to the emergence of amateur archaeology, and World War One remembrance and myths, this episode has it all.Raised Questions:-Did you know the BBC made a rival programme to Channel Four's Time Team?-Why weren't professional archaeologists interested in World War One battlefields back in the early 2000's?-Why wouldn't The Diggers be allowed to do their work today?-Why does wood survive in Flanders Field?-Why is it important to show the reality of war in documentaries?Chapters:0:06 Welcome to Review It Yourself1:14 Revisiting The Forgotten Battlefield2:55 The Evolution of BBC Documentaries7:31 The Role of 'The Diggers'9:19 Post-War Reconstruction Challenges10:48 Discoveries Beneath the Surface13:53 Amateurs vs. Professionals in Archaeology15:28 The Significance of Archaeological Finds21:02 Understanding the Reality of War23:28 The Human Cost of Conflict30:15 The Reality of Identification34:59 Forgotten Events of the Past38:54 The Fog of War40:47 Officer Casualties and Leadership45:44 Findings from the Battlefield Trench47:45 Unearthing History56:34 The Weight of Remembrance1:01:20 Reflections on Loss1:06:21 The Reality of War1:08:09 Commemoration vs. Reality1:16:56 Modern Discoveries1:23:05 The Role of DNA1:28:58 The Future of Historical Narratives1:33:57 Sharing Knowledge and PassionThe Programme on BBC iPlayer (UK Only): https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b0074n0m/meet-the-ancestors-series-5-3-the-forgotten-battlefieldPaul's Podcast: Further Information can be found in Paul's podcast: The Old Front Line:-Battlefield Archaeology & Essex Farm Episode (3rd April 2020).-Forgotten Battlefield: The Reunion Episode (1st April 2023).The Old Front Line Website: https://oldfrontline.co.uk/Thanks for Listening!Find us here: X: @YourselfReviewInstagram: reviewityourselfpodcast2021 Hosted on Acast.

Microcosmos Records presents Gati, a new album by Six Dead Bulgarians — a deep, ritualistic journey where ambient electronics, ethnic instrumentation, and archaic memory dissolve into one continuous flow. The word Gati comes from Sanskrit and can be translated as movement, path, passage, destiny, the migration of the soul. It reflects a worldview where life unfolds as an endless current of transitions and rebirths. This idea resonates with the geography of the Russian North, where countless rivers carry names ending in "-ga" — Volga, Onega, Pinega, Vaga — as if echoing an ancient linguistic and cultural source. Musically, Gati is dense yet meditative. Analog synthesizer drones pulse like slow breathing, while flutes, didgeridoo, trumpet, guitar, ethnic percussion, and deeply rooted folk vocals form a living, organic texture. Field recordings from the archives of Kenozero National Park add a documentary layer, grounding the album in real landscapes, voices, and time. The album's concept revolves around the life and fate of a Russian woman during times of hardship — not as a narrative, but as a state of being. Each track feels like a fragment of memory: intimate, restrained, and quietly powerful. Despite its depth, Gati remains surprisingly accessible — music that can accompany daily life while subtly shifting perception.

Full Text of ReadingsThe Commemoration of All the Faithful Departed (All Souls) Lectionary: 668The Saint of the day is Commemoration of All the Faithful DepartedThe Story of the Commemoration of All the Faithful Departed The Church has encouraged prayer for the dead from the earliest times as an act of Christian charity. “If we had no care for the dead,” Augustine noted, “we would not be in the habit of praying for them.” Yet pre-Christian rites for the deceased retained such a strong hold on the superstitious imagination that a liturgical commemoration was not observed until the early Middle Ages, when monastic communities began to mark an annual day of prayer for the departed members. In the middle of the 11th century, Saint Odilo, abbot of Cluny, France, decreed that all Cluniac monasteries offer special prayers and sing the Office for the Dead on November 2, the day after the feast of All Saints. The custom spread from Cluny and was finally adopted throughout the Roman Church. The theological underpinning of the feast is the acknowledgment of human frailty. Since few people achieve perfection in this life but, rather, go to the grave still scarred with traces of sinfulness, some period of purification seems necessary before a soul comes face-to-face with God. The Council of Trent affirmed this purgatory state and insisted that the prayers of the living can speed the process of purification. Superstition easily clung to the observance. Medieval popular belief held that the souls in purgatory could appear on this day in the form of witches, toads or will-o'-the-wisps. Graveside food offerings supposedly eased the rest of the dead. Observances of a more religious nature have survived. These include public processions or private visits to cemeteries and decorating graves with flowers and lights. This feast is observed with great fervor in Mexico. Reflection Whether or not one should pray for the dead is one of the great arguments which divide Christians. Appalled by the abuse of indulgences in the Church of his day, Martin Luther rejected the concept of purgatory. Yet prayer for a loved one is, for the believer, a way of erasing any distance, even death. In prayer we stand in God's presence in the company of someone we love, even if that person has gone before us into death.

The Commemoration of All the Faithful Departed (All Souls)

Homily from the Commemoration of All the Faithfully Departed (All Souls). By the end of this Mass, some things will be changed forever. Purgatory is an essential teaching of Christianity. It highlights that salvation is both an event and a process. Purgatory is God's gift on continuing the process of making our hearts like His that He began in this life. Mass Readings from November 2, 2025: Wisdom 3:1-9 Psalm 23:1-3, 3-4, 5, 6Romans 5:5-11 John 6:37-40

Wisdom 3:1–9 Psalm 23:1–3a, 3b–4, 5, 6 Romans 5:5–11 or Romans 6:3–9 John 6:37–40 When St. Paul talked about the resurrection of the dead with the philosophers at Athens, many laughed and mocked him (Acts 17:32). The Gospel, he would later write, is "foolishness" to the wise of this world (1 Corinthians 1:18). Yet this week's First Reading tells us that it is foolish to think that the souls of the just are dead. Instead, theirs is a "hope full of immortality." By His Resurrection, Jesus frees the human race from the fear of death — from the terrible fear of the unknown, of our own disintegration — that holds us in a kind of slavery (see Hebrews 2:14–15). Because He has walked the dark valley of death before us, and because He has promised to walk alongside us, we can take courage and fear no evil, in the words of this week's Psalm. This is God's will for us — the reason Jesus came into the world, according to today's Gospel: that we will recognize Jesus as the Son of God and, by believing in Him, be raised to eternal life. If we believe in Him, we will follow Him, as the Psalmist says. He will refresh our souls in the waters of Baptism, anoint our heads with the oil of Confirmation, and set before us the table of the Eucharist. There our cups will be filled to overflowing. And by these mysteries of His kindness and goodness, we will "dwell in the house of the Lord" in this life and in the life to come. The First Reading seems to allude to the doctrine of Purgatory — to the souls of the just being chastised, purified as gold in a furnace, and made worthy of God (see 1 Corinthians 3:11–12). This reading also tells us of the glory of the saints, who will share in the rule of Christ, judging and ruling over the nations (see Luke 22:30). Through the "newness of life" we have in the sacraments, this week's Epistle adds, we "grow into union" with Jesus, confident that we will be together with Him when He comes again at the end of time.
