From gloria.tv October 10, 2026:
Leo XIV has appointed Vittorio Francesco Viola OFM, the current secretary of the Dicastery for Divine Worship, and prime enforcer of Traditionis custodes,
who famously wears the episcopal ring of Annibale Bugnini...
Leo XIV appoints enemy of Roman Mass, Archbishop Viola, as archpriest of St. Peter’s – “More to the left than Andrea Grillo”, wears Bugnini’s ring.
Today, Pope Leo XIV appointed Archbishop Vittorio Francesco Viola, 61, O.F.M., as Archpriest of St. Peter’s Basilica, Vicar General for Vatican City, and President of the Fabric of St. Peter.
He succeeds Cardinal Mauro Gambetti.
Monsignor Viola will likely be created a cardinal, as every listed Archpriest of St. Peter’s for hundreds of years has been a cardinal.
In 2021, when he was Bishop of Tortona, Francis appointed him Secretary of the Dicastery for Divine Worship.
Viola’s career was strongly supported by Archbishop Domenico Sorrentino, who served as Prelate of Pompeii, Secretary of the Congregation for Divine Worship, and later Bishop of Assisi. In Assisi, he worked closely with Viola, who was active in Franciscan, liturgical, and charitable work.
Archbishop Viola is part of the circle inspired by Archbishop Annibale Bugnini, the architect of the disastrous liturgical changes under Paul VI. He even wears the episcopal ring once owned by Bugnini.
Viola became one of the leading interpreters of Traditionis custodes, which restricts the Roman Mass.
He also reportedly helped draft the 2022 apostolic letter Desiderio desideravi, in which Francis claims that Catholics cannot truly accept the Second Vatican Council while rejecting the liturgical reform that followed it.
Paix Liturgique reported that Viola has played a key role in denying permissions for young priests who wish to celebrate the Roman Mass. Under current rules, bishops must often seek Vatican approval for such requests.
Andrea Grillo, a well-known enemy of the traditional liturgy, has reportedly said: “Viola is more to the left than I am.”

Pope Leo to visit Assisi 40 years after historic prayer meeting
From October 25 to 27, Assisi will host an interreligious peace prayer, the 40th annual meeting in a series initiated by Pope St John Paul II.

Vatican News | October 6, 2026
40 years ago, on October 27, 1986, Pope St John Paul II took part in the historic World Day of Prayer for Peace in Assisi, central Italy. For the first time in history, representatives of all world religions were invited by the Pope to pray together for peace.
Among those inspired by that meeting was the Community of Sant’Egidio, a Catholic lay organisation, which since then has continued to promote what is known as the ‘Spirit of Assisi’ every year across Europe and beyond.
This year’s event be attended by Pope Leo XIV. “We are truly delighted by the Holy Father’s return to Assisi,” said the local bishop, Monsignor Felice Accrocca. “We firmly believe that the Pope’s presence, together with all the other religious leaders, can reinforce the shared journey against every form of violence.”

Catholic clergy participate in First Nations ritual in Ottawa cathedral
A purification ritual involving smoke, sacred plants, an indigenous hymn, and prayers to the four directions preceded a Mass at Ottawa’s Notre-Dame Basilica.
![[Image: smudgingg-e1791305595685.jpg]](https://www.lifesitenews.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/smudgingg-e1791305595685.jpg)
OTTAWA, Ontario (LifeSiteNews) — The Notre-Dame Basilica in Ottawa marked Canada’s National Day for Truth and Reconciliation last week with a special Mass that included an indigenous purification ceremony and other pagan practices.
After the procession and opening hymn of the September 30 Mass, celebrated by Father Daryold Winkler, a woman offered a “land acknowledgment,” followed by a purification ritual that involved fanning smoke over those present as an indigenous hymn was recited before the four directions prayer.
The subsequent four directions prayer used “sacred plants,” including sweet grass, cedar, sage, and tobacco, to “purify” the space with a prayer facing each of the four cardinal directions (north, east, south, west) of the 19th-century cathedral.
The Catholic clergy present each participated in these pagan rituals before the Mass officially began.
While the Catholic Church has always sought to bring people of all cultures together, it has also always condemned the concept of syncretism, or the blending of pagan and other non-Catholic rituals, such as indigenous purification ceremonies, with Catholic practices.
“As we begin this evening’s celebration, let us take a moment to acknowledge the sacred land on which we gather. We recognize and honor the traditional and unceded territory of the Algonquin … whose stewardship of this land continues to inspire our journey toward truth and reconciliation,” the unidentified laywoman said during the leftist “land acknowledgment.
In recent years, the Canadian Church has incorporated pagan indigenous rituals into Catholic Masses as well as given in to leftist narratives about the country’s residential schools.
Perhaps most notably, during Pope Francis’ visit to Canada in 2022, the 266th pontiff attended a “healing dance” in Maskwacis, Alberta, that appeared to direct worship to “Mother Earth.”
Before the event, the master of ceremonies explained that a “healing dance” was about to occur while outlining that the drum involved is “the heartbeat of Mother Earth, the drum is life.” During the pagan ritual, Indigenous people gathered in a circle around a large tree branch, chanting and playing the drum as others dressed in feathers and other traditional outfits began dancing.
Francis, along with four Indigenous chiefs donning traditional headdresses and garb, sat on a stage slightly above the dance, giving them a view of the happenings.
