In the above video, Br. Bugnolo, the editor of FromRome.info explains in simple terms how accepting the election of Cardinal Prevost as Leo XIV would lead to the total destruction of the Church and the moral corruption of every Catholic family on Earth. He also explains how those who say Catholics must accept him are contradicting the entire teaching of Jesus Christ, Who taught that the very measure of true love of Him is to keep all the Commandments. — A “church” which wants to junk the 2nd or 6th commandment is not only not Catholic and not Christian, it’s not even Jewish. It’s satanic. We cannot allow this man to be our pope without denying Jesus Christ totally and completely!
Therefore Catholics have the right and duty to refuse this man as their superior; and thankfully both Pope Paul IV, in n. 6, of his bull of Feb. 15, 1559, “Cum ex apostolatus officio”, say we have this right, and Canon Law says he does not have a right to this office over us.
Br. Bugnolo, who lives at Rome explains in this video the fight which lies before us. He invites Catholics to come to Rome and collaborate with him to organize the Faithful in the City (3 Million) to exercise their ancient right to elect their own Bishop. And if you cannot come, to help him with the expenses to conduct a massive publicity campaign.
How To Help Financially
You can make a donation to this Holy Work to defend the Church, via Paypal, Zelle Pay, or Bank Wire:
As the readers of FromRome.Info know, I am more an activist than a journalist. Well, at least I do not report the news to simply watch the world go to ruin.
Likewise, I do not report the news from the Vatican as a mere spectator, or worse, as a believer who has no intention to doing all that he can to protect Holy Mother Church.
For that reason, even though there are several reports to give us hope, I want to recruit all the true Catholics in the world, to take decisive action if the Cardinals elect a Francis II or a manifest heretic.
Because in that case, the Faithful of Rome need to be prepared and supported to immediately organize an Assembly of Apostolic Right and urge the election of a Catholic as the true pope to counter the anti-Pope, the Cardinals would give us in such a man.
How can we be certain, the new Pope is a heretic?
We can be morally certain if he takes the name Francis II, and/or if he immediately blaspheme’s God by claiming Pope Francis is in Heaven, or that Fiducia supplicans is authentic teaching.
We can be juridically certain, if one or more Cardinals, electors or not, public denounce the newly elected as a heretic.
We can also be juridically certain, if several Catholic Bishops denounce the newly elected as a heretic.
What preparations must we do now, to be ready if this crisis breaks out?
So the first thing we need to do is have volunteers contact the conservative Cardinals to report their declarations to the Catholic World. The next, to solicit from Bishops of known quality, their judgement as men of God on the man elected. This would include Archbishop Lenga, Bishop Gracida, Bishop Aguer, Bishop Strickland etc..
I believe that any credible effort to defend the papacy must be founded on the public declarations of such Cardinals or Bishops. With that made, even if they are unwilling to convoke an Assembly of Apostolic Right, the Catholics of Rome must do it, as soon as it is possible.
For my readers, all I ask at this time is that you comment below, using your true email address, where I can contact you (to comment, do not put it in the text of your comment), and state what kind of help you can give, such as contacting Cardinals, Bishops, or financial to help me reserve a place fit for the Assembly. This way I can be prepared to organize a true Catholic response as soon as possible.
I want to thank, most of all, the benefactors who helped me pay off my debts from the last few months and meet my expenses in April. Though you were as few as could be counted on both hands, you came to my rescue and met my needs. Next, I want to thank everyone in advance who can help me this May. And I assure both groups of my daily prayers to the Child Jesus and the Immaculate Heart.
Here is list of my Expenses in May, 2025 ( a √ means the need has been met, a – the need has not been met):
– $ 600 for food and household supplies √ $ 250 for gasoline for car √ $210 for electricity during the last 3 months √ $ 1500 for Rent, due May 15th
TOTAL: $ 2570
Total raised so far (as of today): $ 2182
(Please note, that the above totals are running, so that with each passing day in January/February as new expenses occur, specific expenses increase)

FIRST, I wish to thank each of you who have supported me and my apostolates in the past, either by prayers or your charitable donations. I am especially grateful to all the donors in the February Appeal, since during that month several big expenses all hit at once: heating and rent. In the Last two months I have been falling short about $600 per month, and it has added up to a debt of nearly $1200 which I carry over to this month. This cannot go on much longer, or I will have to close down the Hermitage here in Italy.
Be assured of my daily prayers and of those also of Father Covens, who is my guest at the Hermitage in these months.
Here is list of my Expenses in March, 2025 ( a √ means the need has been met, a – the need has not been met):
√ $ 1142 to pay off debt accrued in January and February √ $ 800 for food for Br. Bugnolo & Father Covens √ $ 250 for gas (which is $7.20 per gallon in Italy), since a Conclave is likely at Rome –$ 600 for heating & electric bill from Jan. 15 to March 15.
TOTAL: $2792
Total raised so far (as of today): $ 2880
(Please note, that the above totals are running, so that with each passing day in January/February as new expenses occur, specific expenses increase)

As you know, news from Rome is increasing daily as Pope Francis’ health becomes the center of attention and speculation about what happens next fills the news cycle.
But I won’t be able to do much this time around for several reasons: first of all because the car I use just burnt the seals on Engine head and oil is infiltrating the radiator. It will cost me maybe as much as $1500 to fix it.
But on top of this, my expenses since January 1, 2025 have outpaced the support I have received from my readers so far, so that I am currently about $1600 in debt.
I really need the help of anyone who can, even though February is not run out and I have already made two February appeals.
I have welcomed to the Hermitage of the Holy Cross, Father Walter Covens, who since January 22, 2025, has taken up residence here. You may know Father already through his French language translations of so, so many of the articles of FromRome.Info.
Father Walter (see photo above) was born at Antwerp in Belgium. He became a Catholic priest in Switzerland, in the Diocese of Sion, where he served for 7 years. Then, inspired to help in the missions, he joined the Fidei Donum program, established by Pope John Paul II and went to help the Diocese of Fort de France, Martinique, where he has served nearly 30 years. This year, with the permission of his Bishop, he joins me in the work of The Scholasticum, a telematic institute focusing on Saint Thomas Aquinas and Saint Bonaventure. He holds a Licentiate in Ecclesiastical History from the Dominican Faculty at Fribourg, Switzerland, and will serve as President of the nascent institute.
Father Covens is 73, or rather, will be on Monday, January 27, which is his birthday! You can wish him a happy birthday in the comments below.
Father, however, shows no sign of an aged spirit, as he has volunteered to help me in this apostolate; and I in turn have promised him free room and board, trusting in the providence of God. And I for my part, see to his needs, cooking his meals and chauffeuring him around.
For this reason, I ask that you continue to support my work at Rome in February, 2025. And I will need your generous help because of the added expenses I must confront.
BUT FIRST, I wish to thank each of you who have supported me and my apostolates in the past, either by prayers or your charitable donations. I understand that with the economic problems world-wide, not as many of you can help as in the past. Pray for me, if you cannot, that the Lord will send new benefactors.
Here is list of Expenses Brother will have in February, 2025 ( a √ means the need has been met, a – the need has not been met):
– $ 1300 for groceries and gas, for Br. Bugnolo & Father Covens – √ $ 600 for shortfall in January, getting hermitage ready for Father Covens – √ $80 for repair of car which Br. Bugnolo uses (the Mechanic out of charity reduced the bill) –√ $ 600 for heating bill from Nov. 15 to Jan. 15. – √ $ 1560 Rent due on Feb. 15, 2025 (for the period February to May, 2025)
TOTAL: $4140
Total raised so far (from January 26 to today): $ 2862 US Dollars.
(Please note, that the above totals are running, so that with each passing day in January/February as new expenses occur, specific expenses increase)

PAST APPEALS
November 2024
Here is list of Expenses Brother had in November, 2024 ( a √ means the need has been met, a – the need has not been met):
√ $500 Debt for Brother’s personal expenses in last month √ $385 To move items from storage to the new location of the “Hermitage” √ $1400 To fly Father Covens to Rome from his Diocese in Martinique (ticket must be bought immediately before prices go up!) √ $440 To outfit apartment with sheets, blankets for 2 beds, missing fixtures, fix plumbing etc.. √ $250 For gasoline in November √ $150 to keep FromRome.info up and running in November – $700 For Brother’s food, heating, electricity, phone expenses from Nov. 10 – Dec. 10 th. TOTAL: $3825
Total raised from Nov. 8 to Nov. 30, 2024: $3468 US Dollars.
As you know from the recent news, I have decided to return to Rome to do whatever I can to prevent a the Papacy remaining in the hands of heretics. — I am reposting this final section of this Emergency article, which I published here, so that it is easier to access for all of you …. who want to help me.
I cannot do much, but what I can do, I will do if you help me!
Personally, I had hoped that I would not have to remain nor return to Rome again, to help the Roman Church in such a crisis. I have sacrificed the last 5 years of my life for the Roman Church and have merited only derision, calumny, and libel on all sides. There is scarcely more than a few of my readers who has written an article on any other website, blog, radio or aired any video to defend the work I have done or my person from the tidal waves of attacks. And those who have done nothing or the least, are the most vicious in what they say about me for my service to Holy Mother Church.
But, nevertheless, what I can do, I pledge I will do again, if I but have your help!
As you know, after the death of Pope Benedict XVI I was the sole Catholic at Rome who announced the Sede Vacante before all the others, foretold the election of his successor, warned the College of Cardinals to act, and organized TV advertisements to announce the time and place of the Election of his successor by Apostolic Right. No one is apt to do this again but me, because no one understands the gravity of the situation nor has the spunk to sacrifice the time and effort to get it done. But I do not do this but by the grace of God, Who has assisted me at every turn, especially with the help of so many as yourselves, far far away.
This work required that I establish ecclesiastical residence at Rome. I thing I did by coming to live at Rome in October of 2019. Yet, believing the battle over, I left Rome at the end of October of 2023.
Thus, I can now only maintain my ecclesiastical residence at Rome if I return before October 24, 2024. However, AT PRESENT I DO NOT HAVE THE MEANS, since in the last 11 months the total donations I have received from my readers has not exceeded even one months expenses to stay at Rome.
So if you want me to return, so as to be on hand to avert this crisis, then support my appeal to reopen the Hermitage of the Holy Cross, with a sacrificial donation. In fact, inasmuch as averting this crisis is more important for the entire Church and the salvation of the whole world, I ask you to consider supporting the work to avert it with as much dedication as you can possibly muster.
Otherwise, there is nothing for us to do but join the millions of Catholics who are kissing the Catholic Church good-bye and preparing to greet the Church of the Antichrist, with glee or tactful silent acceptance, as the Fake Opposition has begun to do in earnest.
As of October 10th, I want to thank the donors who have given $985 USD (this includes the Hermitage Fund raiser from earlier in September). Thank you one and all!
However, I will need more than $10,000 more to secure a rental and pay the security deposit.
Due to the Media Black Out, FromRome.info will need greater resources too!
For that reason, I would ask you to consider making a generous donation to FromRome.Info, so that it can take whatever steps are necessary to get the message out to the entire Church of Rome and the entire Catholic World of the necessity of calling an Assembly of Apostolic Rite to ensure the juridical valid election of a Catholic Pope to succeed Pope Francis.
As you may know, no other site informed you of the first Assembly or gave you accurate information about it: neither in Europe or elsewhere — excepting the excellent blog of Father Walter Covens. Also, no news outlet in Italy, newspapers, radio or TV reported it, except one channel which charged me thousans of euros for a brief advertisement. This time around, to avoid the catastrophe of having no candidates present themselves, much more preparatory work will be necessary. And that will require greater resources and effort at FromRome.Info.
Finally, if you prefer to send a Bank Wire:

CREDITS: The featured image shows Br. Bugnolo sitting on the doorstep of his ancestral home, in the USA, next to a cement statue of Saint Francis of Assisi, as Brother prepares to return to Rome. All rights reserved.
As I forewarned last December, a Roman Pontiff who through a public, formal act of adhesion to a heretical profession (Fiducia supplicans) would dare appoint new members to the College of Cardinals, would put into canonical doubt the validity of his successors election (See here), due to the impeded state of the Apostolic see. — Now, with this announcement, this canonical doubt will come into force as of December 8, 2024, if Pope Francis goes through with his plan to appoint 21 new Cardinals, a number of whom will be of age capable to elect the next Roman Pontiff.
Just as it cannot be tolerated that a manifest, formal and pertinacious heretic hold claim to the Apostolic See, so it cannot be tolerated that he determine in any way the election of his successor, since by common sense, logic and natural right, it must be presumed that he is an enemy of Christ and a persecutor of the Church, and that all his acts are deformed by his heretical profession.
Therefore, if he does appoint new Cardinal Electors, the election of his successor by the College of Cardinals will NOT be valid, because it must be presumed to be doubtful, since it must be presumed that he has appointed men who are in agreement with him in his heretical profession.
How the impeded state of the Apostolic See will effect the next papal election
The Church is now in a very precarious juridical state, because if Pope Francis without renouncing his heresy of Fiducia supplicans should alter or publish a new law for papal election, and/or appoint men who favor Fiducia supplicans as Cardinals, then the election of his successor will be juridically doubtful, since the man, who is pope, who has impeded the See, can no longer licltly exercise the authority of the See, if he refuses to repent publicly of his crime against the Catholic Church, Her Faith, and the rights of all the faithful to practice the authentic Catholic Faith. Nay, refusal to repent signifies that all his other acts are tainted with his heresy and schism, and thus can be lawfully and licitly rejected by the Faithful.
Note, that recognizing the Apostolic See is impeded by the manifest heretical profession of a pope certified by his signature on a heretical document — even prior to his condemnation by a Council — is a far cry from the error of the sedevacantist who in the same situation would declare the See vacant and ignore all duty to denounce the criminal to a Council to have him removed. Sedevacantism, rather, is a pharisaical way of ignoring responsibility while virtue signalling. Whereas, recognizing the See is impeded is a Catholic and precise way of exercising personal cognizance and responsibility. Such a recognition affirms one’s moral and juridical right to ignore the acts and commands of the heretical pope, but also imposes the obligation to denounce him, seeking his reprehension or removal from office as well as all actions to obstruct his destruction of the Church or perversion of the election of his successor. As such its perfectly and totally catholic. And anyone who would question or deride it is merely seeking to defend his own cowardice and effeminacy.
The 21 “new” Cardinals are nearly all heretics
If you doubt this, just look at the list of names to be nominated. They include at least one of the worse homo-heretics of modern times, Father Timothy Radcliffe, O.P. (as EWTN reported here) who is a blasphemer and heretic, for asserting that the desire to commit sodomy is from God.
Then there is Archbishop Castillio Mattasoglio, who is a promoter of the heresy of liberation theology; Archbishop Vicente Bokalic Iglic, Bergoglio’s auxiliary from Buenas Aires, of the same Rampolla lineage; Archbishop Tarcisio Isao Kikuchi, who believes sodomy is compatible with Christianity; Bishop Pablo Virgilio Siongco David, who approved of ‘Fiducia supplicans’ and who is a graduate of the heretical Biblical Institute of Jerusalem, which does not believe the Books of the Bible were written by the Prophets or Evangelists or Apostles; Archbishop Jean-Paul Vesco, who approved of ‘Fiducia supplicans’; Archbishop Roberto Repole, who thinks the Church needs to reinvent herself; Archbishop Baldassare Reina, who has no problem with Rupnick art defiling the seminary at Rome; and Father Fabio Baggio, who is pushing the Kalergi Plan for Europe. This list is not exhaustive. Indeed, the Gay Mafia is already singing the praises of the nominated men, here.
How I and all those who participated in the Sutri Initiative had hoped that the Sacred Hierarchy mobilize to remonstrate with Pope Francis in a Provincial Council. How we had hoped that he would show his penitence by removing his signature from the blasphemous document ‘Fiducia supplicans’. But he has not done anything in this regard. And the Sacred Hierarchy has not done anything in public to request him to do this. This confirms his pertinacious heretical mindset.
Thus, not only is the Apostolic See impeded, the ‘nomination’ of these new 21 Cardinals will be doubtfully valid; and thus any election by the College of Cardinals with their participation will produce a doubtful pope, who will be pope of no one, according to the addage, “papa dubius, papa nullius est”.
There seems to be little chance this year to avert the Crisis
This news, therefore, is the worst possible news of the year. The only solution, then, is that after Pope Francis’ death, the Faithful of Rome again convene in an Assembly of Apostolic Right and elect his successor, just as they did on January 30, 2023, when they gathered to elect Pope Benedict XVI’s successor.
At this point there are only 3 ways to avert the necessity of another such Assembly, namely: that God call Pope Francis from this life (and you can pray for that here), that he renounce the papacy (and you can pray for that here), or that he forgo appointing new Cardinals (you can write your favorite Catholic Cardinal and demand this).
As for each and everyone of those who knew of the Sutri Initiative but failed to speak of it, you now have become guilty of dividing the Church again and will share in the damnation merited by Pope Francis for this scandal, as there seems little time left to call a provincial council to avert this juridical catastrophe.
What is at stake here?
What is at stake is the very existence of the Catholic Church. This is because an antipope or a manifest heretic has no right to be the Pope, and the Church of Christ has the solemn duty to lead him to repentance by correcting him or declaring him outside of the Church. The Catholic Church exists only because Christ has founded Her and endowed Her with a principle of unity and fidelity, which is the Office of Peter. But because an antipope cannot hold this office, in the sight of God, an invalid or doubtful pope cannot ever be accepted by God as His Vicar on Earth. Thus, if the faithful follow such a man they will NOT be in communion with Jesus Christ. And thus, if a doubtful pope would become ‘universally accepted’ without a juridical correction, the Church would cease being the Bride of Jesus Christ. If the antipope is moreover a heretic, those faithful would become members of the Church of the AntiChrist.
Now that such dire events might presage the end of the world, we already know is the case since numerous saints have warned us that the Antichrist would set up his throne at Rome and attempt to seize the Papacy.
We need to use the means the Apostle Saint Peter gave us to save the Church!
But the glorious Saint Peter the Apostle gave the Church of Rome the means to avert such a catastrophe by granting the right to elect his successors to the entire Church of Rome (the Diocese of Rome and the 7 Suburbican Dioceses which surround her), so that if any regularized canonical way of electing his successor ever come to be established, recourse to the original method might always be had in the case of near mass apostasy or heresy among the electors. In fact, even in the past, when there was no papal law for elections, and Arian heretics attempted to promote their own to the Apostolic See, the Catholics of Rome acted in a timely manner to see a Catholic be elected Peter’s Successor.
Thus, if Pope Francis the manifest, formal, pertinacious heretic who insists the Name of God be used to bless the worse sexual abominations names new Cardinals, the Church can in no way accept as valid any election performed by the College, since the Papal Law requires that a non-doubtful pope nominate the Electors.
Thus if after naming these 21, Pope Francis renounce or die, the only way to have a non-doubtful juridical election will be to have the Faithful of the Roman Church gather and elect a man eligible to be pope, that is a Catholic.
I cannot do much, but what I can do, I will do if you help me!
Personally, I had hoped that I would not have to remain nor return to Rome again, to help the Roman Church in such a crisis. I have sacrificed the last 5 years of my life for the Roman Church and have merited only derision, calumny, and libel on all sides.

I've decided that I will no longer criticize Pope Francis for the remainder of his pontificate.
Since I've been a public critic of the pope for years, I thought I'd explain my decision in this short video. pic.twitter.com/eZ5WXS1BE2
FromRome.Info will also have to expand its services due to the total Media Blackout by Controlled Opposition Sites
For that reason, I would ask you to consider making a generous donation to FromRome.Info, so that it can take whatever steps are necessary to get the message out to the entire Church of Rome and the entire Catholic World of the necessity of calling an Assembly of Apostolic Rite to ensure the juridical valid election of a Catholic Pope to succeed Pope Francis.

In every age, no matter how great the difficulties or problems, the true followers and lovers of Jesus Christ prevail by keeping one simple rule of life: continue to love, believe and hope in Jesus Christ, no matter what.
As we Catholics know, now, the Church is in one of her darkest moments in all of Her history, where human respect and globalist ideology is being put before the adoration of the Living God and the salvation of souls. But despite all the reasons fallen human nature may have to despair, we must keep that one simple rule of life still.
As a Franciscan brother, I have devoted my life since 2016 to helping persecuted Christians, defending Pope Benedict XVI and informing the world about the deceits of the Globalists. But as a Franciscan brother, all those works are over and above my duty. My duty is rather to follow Saint Francis and remind the world about the 4 last things.
On this Feast of the Triumph of the Holy Cross, September 14th, 2024 A. D., I want and resolve to return to that duty and simple rule of life again by reopening the Hermitage of the Holy Cross. — Today is also an important day for us Franciscans, since it was on this very morning, 800 years ago that our Seraphic Father Saint Francis of Assisi received the 5 stigmata of our Crucified Lord Jesus during a mystical encounter with the Lord, who appeared in the form of a Seraphim Angel.
The “Hermitage of the Holy Cross” is the name I gave to the place I used as a monastery from the Fall of 2021 to the Fall of 2023, as my faithful readers of FromRome.Info know. I had to close that place last year, because the owner wanted to sell it. A thing he has now done.
And in the last year, not finding a place, I have concentrated instead on promoting the Sutri Initiative and taking care of my physical and spiritual health, which in the course of the recent years of battle against globalism, I had neglected.
But with that done, by the grace of God and the kind intercession of Saint Louis IX, Crusader King, I realize that I am obliged before God not to give up the fight, but strive to reopen that Hermitage again, as a place of prayer and solitude, and the following of Jesus Christ, as Saint Francis did, for all.
To that end, I am appealing again for your generous support. I am undertaking this work, not in the full knowledge of where the Lord wants me to do this, but in the darkness of faith and trust in the Lord Jesus, my King and my God, who promised, “Ask and you will receive, seek and you will find, knock and it will be opened unto you”.
And while my readers here at FromRome.Info cannot help me in all things, on account of the many problems in the world at the present, and moreso in the Church, I will not be able to rely on Bishops or other Ecclesiastical institutions as my fellow Franciscans have done in ages past (who begged the free use of places and churches), but will have to find a place solely with the help of honest Catholics and Christians like yourself.
My intention is to rent and or purchase a place in a rural setting. I will leave it to God’s providence to find the place.
For that reason, on this Feast of the Triumph of the Holy Cross, I am putting my trust in the merits of the Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ, Crucified and Risen, triumphing over death and all opposition, by asking you to consider making a generous donation to my Hermitage Appeal, through one of the following Methods.
I thank you from the bottom of my soul, in advance and assure you each and all of my prayers in this little, holy work.
If you would like to donate by PayPal or Credit Card:
If you would like to donate via Bank wire, I have made it easy for you by providing you a PDF with the information to give your Bank, in a handy PDF with the details:
for transfers in US dollars from US Banks HERE, from outside the USA, HERE.
for transfers in EUROS from countries in the SEPA system HERE
For transfers in British Pounds Sterling, from the UK, HERE, and from outside the UK, HERE.
NOTE WELL: That for bank wires, include the Message “HERMITAGE” as the reason for your wire.
As always, donations via PayPal are received by the US 501c3 Charity, Save Old St. Mary’s Inc., which I founded more than 20 years ago, for apostolic works. And donations via bank wire are received by Ordo Militaris Inc., which I co-founded in 2016 to help persecuted Christians. All donations received for the Hermitage will go to expenses to establish it, such as rental, shipping of furniture, books, chapel materials (that I have in storage), travel, food, utilities etc.; that is, all that is necessary to open and maintain the place.
As soon as I have any news about the progress or success of this project, I will publish it here at FromRome.info. If you have questions or comments about this appeal, please comment below.
Thank you! And may JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD, THE ONLY SAVIOR bless you and keep you!
As of Sept 15th, 2024, donations to this cause, from 3 donors, amounted to $465 USD.
As you may know, FromRome.Info has been my personal apostolate since January 2020, when I was providentially inspired to transform my old WordPress Blog into a daily news journal: though this website, many hundreds of thousands if not millions came to know something about me and my warnings about the utter fraud of the Pandemic, Covid-19, SarsCov-19 and the mRNA “vaccines”.
During these 4+ years I have warned my readers daily of the lies and dishonesty of media reports from around the world.
But as this fake Crisis has passed, more or less, from being one in which FromRome.Info was one of the few if only Catholic sources opposing it: there are now many voices and initiatives speaking the truth and seeking justice, even though it is only a tiny percentage of what should be done, considering how billions of humans were victimized during it all.
Not being a lawyer or M. D., I see my work done in these areas for the mean time, since there is no expertise I can bring to the progress toward justice further.
So it is my intention to return to my previous apostolic works, if I can.
I say, if I can, because as a Franciscan Brother who owns nothing, and who has exposed the corruption in the Church all too well, the only apostolic works I can engage in are those which do not require the permission of a local Bishop AND which I can find benefactors to help me accomplish.
Since September of last year, as I informed you, I have no longer been living in the Hermitage in Italy, where I resided for the previous two years. This is because the owner decided to terminate the lease and I could not find any place suitable for a religious brother to live. So I have been taking an extended visit with my relatives in the U.S.A., while attending to my spiritual and physical health, after 4 long years of battle with some needed rest and much prayer.
As the summer of 2024 begins, I discern that I have rested enough and that I should get back to the work the Lord has given me in the past. As you know, from posts here at FromRome.Info I have already attempted to raise funds for The Scholasticum and Ordo Militaris Catholicus’ Youth Camp and Formation Center, a Military Monastery.
So you can easily see, from this brief summary, that I am not yet able to undertake any apostolate, for the simple reason that I can not find any support.
Since I have not been asking any of my readers to support me monthly, as I did during the last 4 years when I was in Italy, I write now to ask all those who hold me in good will and who appreciate my service to Christ, to consider helping me in one of these apostolic works, though the donation pages found in one of the four links cited above, since so much good can be done through all of them, or any one of them.
In the meantime, be assured of my prayers for each of you. FromRome.Info will remain in existence as a resource, and from now and then I will post other articles. But as my apostolate is not journalism, but helping others in person, I will be reducing further posts here at FromRome.Info.
If I cannot find any support for these good works, then I will go back to my private life as I have lived before I began FromRome.Info.
I will, however, still appear at OMC Radio TV for some of their programs.

Everyone in the Church, who has been attentive to the declines in our Holy Faith and especially in the formation of the clergy and religious of the Church, understands well the need for sound Catholic Education for the clergy and future clergy. This is not only true on account of the disastrous initiatives in our generation to divorce education from truth and virtue, but especially true because of the great number of initiatives which have placed their hope for the formation of minds, not in Christ Jesus, Who is Eternal Truth and Wisdom, but in ideas of cultural Marxism.
Unfortunately, there are few aware enough of the problems, who admire the true fonts of Catholic Education, which lie in Sacred Scripture and the writings of the Fathers and Doctors of the Church, most especially in those two great luminaries of minds and men, Saints Thomas Aquinas and Bonaventure of Bagnoregio.
Back in 2016, I launched this dream of true renewal in the form of an institute of Scholastic Theology and Philosophy, a center for Medieval Studies, which would train youth today in the methods which Saints Thomas and Bonaventure preached and promoted.
Today, I can happily announce a new phase in the development of that institute, in the appointment of the Rev. Walter Covens as President, a position he has accepted with the approval of his ordinary in Martinique, Archbishop David Thomas Daniel Macaire, O.P., a Dominican Friar.
But to become a reality for students, this new Institute, The Scholasticum, needs urgently a place to house its activities and faculty and students: where they can study, attend classes, host conferences, sleep and eat, and in a place removed from the hustle and bustle of the city of Rome.
Such a place is currently on the market.
And here are a few photos of the property.
Which has 20 rooms and is about 1250 sq meters of interior space, that is, about 15,000 sq. Feet.
To savor the quality of education to be offered at our Institute, page through our Annuario which describes our Course Offerings.
While I understand that for most of my readers, that price is beyond their personal capacity, I know that some of them could fully afford it. Whether you can offer financial support for such a project, or purchase the property and allow us the charitable use of it for the institute, I am willing to consider all possibilities. I am willing even to consider offering an investment possibility through Ordo Militaris Inc., a Montana Stock Corporation, to those who would prefer co-investing in this property through an stock offering.
To speak with me personally, leave a message at +1 406 299 9260 by voice.
However, If you would like to contribute to a charitable fund dedicated to outfitting or purchasing such a property, please consider a very generous donation below, either via PayPal or Bank Wire.
Properties like this rarely come on the market in Italy, and thus I see this possibility as sign from the Glorious Saint Joseph, whose feast it is today, that I should ask and let that great Saint inspire you all with a good work for Holy Mother Church.
If we cannot acquire the property or use of this place as depicted above, all funds will be used to rent a place or pay for the expenses to begin classes telematically.
These funds are being collected in 501(c)(3) dedicated funds by Save Old St. Mary’s Inc., a MA 501c3 Charity and Ordo Militaris Inc., a Montana Stock Corporation. No part of these funds will be used for any other purpose than for the Scholasticum.

As you may know, Br. Bugnolo is the co-founder of an international association for the defense of persecuted Christians, known as Ordo Militaris Catholicus. The principal supporters or boosters of which association are the pledged members, who are organized like a Military Order with grades of membership drawn from medieval times, when Christians ruled the world: lay members, heralds, squires, knights etc..
Consider becoming a member today to be a co-worker with Br. Bugnolo in the defense of Christendom. Read more about it here.

Here AJ and Br. Bugnolo discuss what they and their volunteers did for the Christian Ukrainian people in 2022, through the non-profit Br. Bugnolo founded in Ukraine: CrossAzure.org. And learn what YOU can do by supporting or VOLUNTEERING with Cross Azure, this Spring, as Br. Bugnolo aims to return to Ukraine to help the Christians victims of this horrible war. — Click the image above to watch on Bitchute, Odysee, Rumble, or at OMC Radio TV, or watch here the Rumble Version:

As you may know, 7 years ago I co-founded an international association for the defense of persecuted Christians. — As our recruits – vocations need a place to be formed, I have begun a fundraiser to acquire such a property. See either of the images above. — The top image is for those using cellphones who would like to donate via ApplePay, GPay, Stripe or Credit Card. — The lower image is for those who would like to donate via PayPal, ZellPay, or Bank Wire.
As my readers know, I do not live in a monastery, at present. I was living in a Hermitage in Italy, supported by your monthly donations, but the owners decided to sell that place. As I am not as young as I used to be, I see that I will only be able to be useful to the Church if I settle down in one place and do my work from there. I thank all who have already supported the Scholarship Fund for the Youth Camp I hope to run this summer, but as of yet I do not have a place appropriate for that program.
A Military Monastery combines the facilities to train monks, like a Chapel, Refectory, Library, Class Rooms, Garages, Workshops etc., plus the facilities to train men in security work, such as a shooting range, obstacle course, places to practice digging trenches, evading military obstacles, hunting, stabling horses, physical exercise, and basic combat training, such as self-defense, hand-to-hand combat, and small squad training.
This property will be owned by a non-profit for that purpose. The funds raised will be kept in escrow by Ordo Militaris Inc., until the project begins. — I am the president of that corporation.
I thank all the past supporters of Ordo Militaris Catholicus and FromRome.info for their support. In particular, I thank AJ Baalman for all the publicity and volunteer work for the Order; and Father Walter Covens who is offering 3 masses each month for the supporters, members and vocations of Ordo Militaris Catholicus.
As a brother, I can tell you that we brothers are a rare and dying breed. Catholics generously support priests and nuns; but we brothers are forgotten by everyone. On top of that, canceled brothers have no organization to turn to. I have eaked out an existence since 1996, so that I might be faithful to Saint Francis as the pope of ages past exhorted us to be. I have only you my readers for support.
Please be generous to this appeal. — This is my personal appeal.
But here is the official appeal of our Order.
DO YOU OPPOSE ISLAMIC INVASION?
If you do, stop and think for a moment, how merely lamenting about it on social media is TOTALLY INEFFECTIVE. And consider changing tactics.
Our Military Order is an international association for the defense of Christians from persecution, chiefly Islamic Terrorism. We were founded in the days following the martyrdom of Fr. Jacques Hamel on July 2, 2016, who was stabbed to death in his church at France, during services by 2 Algerian Muslim radicals.
We actually propose to train men to defend Christians from terrorism. But we cannot do it without you! because we are not backed in any way by Globalists or governments or churches. We are a totally private initiative, working on the basis of a Membership Organization to crowdfund the defense of Christendom.
Think for a moment whether there is REALLY any other way of solving the problem, than what we propose, and consider to support our Order by becoming a member or purchasing our merchandise, or supporting our Humanitarian or Security projects. For more information see https://www.ordo-militaris.us and put into practice real DEUS VULT!
Evaluating the Market
So you can get an idea of the magnitude of the project, or, if you are an investor, so you can get inspired, I will list here possible properties which could serve the purpose of our Order. This list is only illustrative. — The principal purpose of such a place is to train and inspire men to defend Christendom. Places like these would do that.
Dear Friends, Supporters, Benefactors and fellow Catholics, Readers of FromRome.Info:
Soon we will be celebrating the most joyful Solemnity wherein we remember the wonderful Descent of the Eternal Son of God, from His Heavenly Throne beside the Eternal Father.
He came not to glorify Himself, but to glorify His Father by saving the poor souls of Adam’s race, lost after long centuries of error and sin, and mislead by terrible vices and corrupt cultures.
In this Holy and Festive Anticipation, let us not forget that He came to save us, who are unworthy of salvation. He first had mercy upon us. He first chose to sacrifice everything so as to save us.
He came to call us out of the darkness in which we thought all existence is in this world and opened for us an new horizon, where once He had obtained the forgiveness of our sins by His August Sacrifice on Calvary, we might by Faith and Sacrament be reborn to a new life and return to stand with Him at the right Hand of His Father in Heaven, in the Family that God always intended, when from the foundation of the world He foresaw us and loved us.
This spirit of self sacrifice to save the needy is at the heart of our Christian vocation, and it is the spirit of the Association I co founded with Andrew Baalman 7 years ago: Ordo Militaris Catholicus.
For there is no other organization in the Catholic world which is dedicated to defending persecuted Christians and stopping the persecution at the root.
It is in this spirit that I pilgrimaged to Rome 4 years ago to defend the cause of Pope Benedict XVI, and in which I have battled the Scamdemic and DeathVaxx and Agenda 2030 these four years.
For this reason, as I now continue to volunteer in the Ordo Militaris Catholicus, I ask your help for our new projects in 2024, which is starting a youth camp, free of charge, for 20 youth in the USA and 20 youth in Europe.
This camp will launch their career in security and military services and open the opportunity for Catholic men to combine faith and action in the defense of Catholics threatened by illegal immigration and Islamic terrorism.
If you have the means, this Christmas or at the end of this year of Our Lord 2023, I would ask you to take a look at our programs and consider a generous donation.
For more information see our pages for the USA and for Europe.
Wishing you all the blessings and graces of a Holy Christ’s Mass, I pray that the Child of Bethlehem open His arms to you, and draw you by the cords of His love and mercy, this Holy Season,
Sincerely in Saint Francis,
Br. Alexis Bugnolo
