JUST IN: The ‘International Una Voce Federation’ has taken out an advert in the July 4 Sunday edition of the Italian daily La Repubblica, to issue a declaration about potential restrictions of the Traditional Latin Mass.

Italian below. English text here: fiuv.org/2021/07/fiuv-s…
A 2020 worldwide FIUV survey (with results from 364 dioceses in 52 countries) found that the TLM was “deeply appreciated by groups of faithful of all ages, especially families with children” & in “all social & cultural environments” on all continents, with growing communities.
“Nevertheless, we have noticed that, contrary to the previous policy of the Holy See, there are still people within the Church, including some bishops, who would like to see the Extraordinary Form of the Roman rite explicitly suppressed, or subject to further restrictions.”
“The growth of interest in the traditional liturgy is not due to nostalgia for a time we do not remember, or a desire for rigidity: it is rather a matter of opening ourselves to the value of something that for most of us is new, and inspires hope,” the declaration continues.
“Pope Francis has characterised the ancient liturgy in terms of a "sense of adoration" (Press conference of 28 July 2013), we can also apply his words to it: a "living history that welcomes us and pushes us forward" (Evangelii Gaudium 13).”
It concludes: “Today we only wish to be part of that ‘great orchestra’ of ‘unity in variety’ which as Pope Francis said reflects the true catholicity of the Church...Summorum Pontificum continues to transform the conflicts of the past into harmony: long may it continue to do so.”

At #Vatican press conference on COVID-vaccine ethics & hesitancy, I asked about abortion-tainted vaccines, conscientious objection, vaccine deaths & whether children should receive vaccines whose long-term effects are unknown. See thread for question & answers @remnantnews (1/5)
Archbishop Paglia responds, saying the Dec. 2020 note by the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith on the morality of using some covid-19 vaccines answers the question of abortion-tainted vaccines & there’s no more to say. (English translation in next tweet) @PagliaAbp (2/5)

In the interests of fair and truthful journalism, a critique of @Americamag’s new hit piece by @MikeOLoughlin on Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò after his letter to @realDonaldTrump - see thread:
1. @Americamag says Italian courts determined that +Viganò “had been stealing millions of dollars” from his “ill brother” and “a judge ruled last year that he must repay the money.” TOTALLY FALSE: lifesitenews.com/news/breaking-…
2. @Americamag alleges +Viganò “orchestrated” Pope Francis’ visit with Kim Davis in 2015, points to @nytimes report that @pontifex allegedly “fired” +Viganò “because of his role in arranging the meeting.” FAKE NEWS, left out full account of what happened: lifesitenews.com/news/exclusive…

Indigenous leader warns of Amazon Synod & influence of Liberation Theology Missionaries: “Some tribes still practice infanticide & cannibalism.” They do this because anthropologists tell them they have to remain in their primitive state.

~ ‘Amazon: The Stakes’ Conference, Rome. Image
Indigenous leader: “When a handicapped child is born” the policy is to “eat the baby” but “this is being promoted by the anthropologists.” Indigenous people who have left this behind don’t want to go back under the influence of liberation theology missionaries & anthropologists. Image
He also clarified that many indigenous tribes have abandoned the practice of cannibalism. However, often those who have not abandoned it are influenced and encouraged by indigents and anthropologists to remain in their primitive state.

A Hermit's Open Letter to Cardinals and Bishops of the Catholic Church @LifeSite lifesitenews.com/opinion/awake-…
“Cardinal Maradiaga has accused Edward Pentin of being a 'hitman' who is the 'enemy of reform.' This preposterous accusation comes from one of the Pope’s closest advisers.” ~ Hermit to Cardinals and Bishops of the Catholic Church
"Amid the great clouds of spiritual and poisonous darkness that are now engulfing the Church, one feels a bit safer with Edward Pentin modestly walking across the world’s stage." ~ Hermit to Cardinals and Bishops of the Catholic Church
