The DDF prefect declared that ‘identifying Elenita de Jesús with Our Lord Jesus Christ, the only redeemer, or with the Virgin Mary, the first cooperator in the work of her Son, must be completely avoided.’
The apparitions of the Blessed Virgin Mary to Pierina Gilli took place in Brescia, Italy, in 1947 and 1966
As reported by the Italian news agency Ansa, the testimonies of five alleged victims were presented at the Vatican dicastery by Italian lawyer Laura Sgrò on April 3.
The prefect of the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith said a ‘new text’ had been recently prepared having already had ‘several versions.’
COMMENTARY: 2023 was a particular tumultuous year in the continuing debate over the proper interpretation of the Council.
ANALYSIS: With Cardinal Fernández at the helm, the DDF has become the right hand of Pope Francis’ pontificate.
COMMENTARY: This kind of ambiguity has been seen before, in the case of allowing divorced and remarried couples to receive Communion
ANALYSIS: In the eight days between his appointment to head the DDF and the announcement that he will be made a cardinal, he has had a lot to say — but his public comments have brought up as many questions as they’ve answered.
The appointment of a new prefect to the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith with a ‘different’ mandate is not a repudiation of the importance of safeguarding the integrity of doctrine — not unless Pope Francis was repudiating himself.
COMMENTARY: Just as Pope John Paul II was happy to have his ministry judged by his choice of principal collaborator, so too Archbishop Fernández thinks that his appointment serves the same role for Pope Francis.
