Agreement between state and religions to prevent the social scourge of su***de

The Korean government has signed a framework agreement with religious leaders to promote a culture of respect for life and prevent su***de, a phenomenon that continues to seriously affect South Korean society.

The theme of “respect for life” has found full agreement among religious communities, which have expressed their willingness to actively engage in this area.

The document was signed on Nov 24 by Prime Minister Kim Min-seok and representatives of various religions, at the conclusion of the first “Government-Religion Cooperation Forum,” held at the Prime Minister’s official residence in Seoul.

Malaysia plans social media ban for under-16s

MALAYSIA says it is planning to block children under 16 from signing up to social media accounts next year, in a move to tighten access over child safety concerns.

Communications minister Fahmi Fadzil said Nov 23 the government was looking at how Australia and other countries dealt with imposing online age restrictions.

“We hope that by next year, social media platforms will comply with the government’s decision to bar those under 16 from opening social media accounts,” Fahmi said in a video posted online by Malaysian daily The Star.

Meeting with Latvian pilgrims, Pope offers spiritual advice for ‘turbulent times’

Pope Leo XIV met on Monday with a delegation of Christian pilgrims from Latvia, one hundred years since the first official pilgrimage from the country to Rome.

Among them was Evika Siliņa, who has served as Prime Minister of Latvia since 2023.

War in Ukraine
Today, Pope Leo said, the country—which borders Russia and has been heavily affected by the ongoing war in Ukraine—faces “turbulent times.”

UN: 50,000 women killed in one year

“Women speaking to us from El Fasher, the heart of the latest catastrophe in Sudan, tell of hunger, displacement, r**e and bombardments.” With these words, Ginevra Anna Mutavati, Regional Director for East and Southern Africa at UN Women, recently described to journalists the situation in North Darfur’s capital. After more than 500 days of siege by Rapid Support Forces (RSF), widespread abuses — including summary executions and sexual violence — have been documented.

Women, she noted, continue to bear the heaviest burden. Even in flight, they remain exposed to grave dangers.

Global numbers show widespread violence
The threat, however, is not limited to contexts of war. Worldwide, the UN estimates that 840 million women — nearly one in three — have experienced physical or sexual violence by a partner, sexual violence by a non-partner, or both, at least once in their lives.

Thursday of week 34 in Ordinary Time

Courage in the face of trials

In today’s gospel, Jesus speaks openly about times of great distress—wars, destruction, and fear—that will shake the foundations of the world. Yet, despite these difficulties, He calls us to have courage. He urges us not to be terrified or lose heart when chaos surrounds us, but to stand firm with faith and trust in God’s unfailing presence.

Malaysian Catholics respond generously to Myanmar crisis

The Catholic Bishops’ Conference of Malaysia (CBCM) has expressed deep gratitude to Catholics and people of goodwill across the country for contributing more than RM907,000 towards relief efforts in Myanmar following the devastating earthquake earlier this year.

In a statement issued on Nov 23, the Solemnity of Christ the King, CBCM President Archbishop Simon Poh said the nationwide appeal launched in April received an outpouring of prayers, solidarity and financial support from dioceses, parishes, religious communities and individuals throughout Malaysia.

As of Nov 11, a total of RM907,574.05 was collected through special weekend Mass collections and subsequent donations nationwide.

Doctrine of the Faith: Monogamy is not a limitation but a promise of the infinite

Marriage is defined as “an indissoluble unity” by the doctrinal Note of the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith (DDF), calling it an “exclusive union and mutual belonging.” Fittingly, the document approved by Pope Leo XIV on Nov 21, the liturgical memorial of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and presented to the press today, Nov 25, bears the title Una caro (one flesh). In Praise of Monogamy.

It explains that only two people can give themselves fully and completely to one another; otherwise, the gift becomes partial and fails to respect the other’s dignity.

Reasons for the document
The text is driven by three main concerns. First, as Cardinal Prefect Víctor Manuel Fernández writes in the introduction, is the current “global context of expanding technological power.” This leads human beings to see themselves as “creatures without limits” and thus distant from the value of exclusive love reserved for one person.

Capuchin bazaar raises funds for student formation

The annual Capuchin Bazaar, held on Nov 9 at the Church of St Francis of Assisi, raised approximately RM70,000 (at press time) for the Capuchin Student Fund.

It was a lively, joyful, and well-attended event, drawing around 1,500 visitors. The bazaar featured 35 stalls offering food, drinks, vegetables, fruits, religious items, preloved goods, and more. These stalls were supported by individuals, church ministries, apostolates, and generous sponsors from near and far, including Singapore, Penang, and Seremban.

Guided by Fr Gilbert James OFM Cap and Bro Tony Bingkuan OFM Cap, the organising committee, led by chairperson Vilma Ng Bujang, ensured that the event ran smoothly.

Pope to Servants of Mary: Be bearers of friendship and peace

“You are called to be bearers of friendship and peace,” said Pope Leo XIV as he welcomed the Servants of Mary in Rome on the occasion of their 215th General Chapter.

In his remarks, he praised the religious for their faith and service, highlighting the importance of returning to their roots while projecting their efforts toward the future.

To continue enriching the Church, Pope Leo called on them to embrace the Gospel and the Rule of St Augustine, and to listen to the cry of the poor.
