Eternal rest grant Justin Evans, O Lord. Let the perpetual light shine upon him. May he rest in peace. Amen...The diocese has nothing to say about this incident (except perhaps pray for him) because as a sedevacantist sect, the Transalpines have severed relations with the diocese and the Vatican.
The waters there are quite rough! It is a difficult place to live. Eternal Rest Grant unto him O Lord! And let perpetual light shine upon him! May the Divine assistance remain with us, and the souls of the Faithful departed rest in peace. I am confident he was "prayed up!"

It is premature to foresee an intervention by the Holy See regarding the German bishops on the blessings for homosexuals. Cardinal Pietro Parolin said this at the Augustinianum to present the book “Robert Francis Prevost. Free Under Grace”, as reported by VaticanNews.va on May 6. At this moment, Cardinal Parolin said, there is “dialogue”: “Let us see what happens.” He reiterated that the decision belongs to the Pope. “But in any case," he continued, “we have already for some time begun a dialogue, each expressing our own views.” Cardinal Parolin hopes that sanctions will not be necessary and that problems may be resolved peacefully, as should be the case in the Church. #newsZztiabfumv
