CATHOLIC YOUTH STOPPED FROM EVANGELISATION ON THE STREETS OF ROME

Patriarch of Venice has invited the Gesù al Centro youth to come to Venice for street evangelisation.

The Catholic Vicariate in Rome has stopped Catholic Mission on the streets of Rome. The Gesu al Centro youth program is now restricted to schools and hospitals. Even last year the youth in groups’ f four or five wearing colourful T. shirts were not seen on the streets.

The Vicariate has also suspended the Catholic mission magazine Christ to the World. The magazine was under the Vicariate of Rome though edited by the community Franciscan Friars of the Immaculate.

The leftists, socialists and communists have placed anti Semitism and anti proselytism laws in Italy which are being enforced. There are laws against the free distribution of pamphlets and freedom of religious expression.

Also the secular mainstream media controlled by them are not reporting the truth about Catholic Mission doctrine but are changing it and presenting it differently in a politically accepted version of the Catholic Faith.

Catholics now wrongly believe that Fr. Leonard Feeney was excommunicated for saying everyone needs to be a visible members of the Church to avoid Hell and there are no exceptions. This was exactly the teaching of the popes, Council saints and the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus.

They also say Vatican Council II has changed Church teaching when Vatican Council II actually supports the dogmatic teaching and says all need to enter the Church through Catholic Faith and the baptism of water for salvation (LG 14, AG 7)

They also false claim that those saved in invincible ignorance or the baptism of desire are exceptions to the dogma or the need for everyone to be a visible member of the Church for salvation.Discerning Catholics know that they are not exceptions. Since we do not know any such case and there is no Church document which says those saved with the baptism of desire or in invincible ignorance are explicitly known to us. They are only known to God and we will not encounter such cases on the streets and so they are not an exception to the dogma Cantate Domino, Council of Florence on extra ecclesiam nulla salus. Neither do they contradict Vatican Council II (LG 14, AG 7) or the Catechism of the Catholic Church n.845, 846.

The Corpus Christi and other religious processions in Rome are still permitted.
