Orthodox delegate today stresses that their understanding of synodality dates back to Council of Nicaea, “is a deliberative meeting of bishops, not a consultative clergy-laity assembly”, & non-bishops have no vote. It “differs greatly” from definition given by @Synod_va, he said.

Despite claims made earlier today by Palestinian Propagandists that the Church of Saint Porphyrios in Gaza; which is a Greek Orthodox Church and one of the Oldest in the World being Opened over 1597 Years Ago, was Destroyed by an Israeli Airstrike, the Curator of the Church has stated that this is False and they are currently taking in Refugees from the Bombings.

Diocese appeals city’s decision to block a Mass for Life in front of abortion clinic

〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰

NEW YORK — Days after a judge blocked a city permit that would have allowed the Diocese of Wichita, Kansas, to close a street for its annual Mass for Life, blocking the entrance to an abortion clinic, a diocesan spokesperson said they hope to make their case to the city council and reschedule the event.

“That’s our hope,” Matthew Vainer, director of communications for the diocese said of holding the Mass in front of the abortion clinic, adding that it’s important to do so because “it’s important for us as Catholics to always believe that the unborn need a voice, so we can hold up their lives.”

The diocese’s Mass for Life was scheduled for Saturday, Oct. 7. Two days earlier, the diocese was informed by the city council that more than a third of property owners affected by the street closure had objected, which, according to a city ordinance, requires the matter to go before the city council.

Last month, the abortion clinic, Trust Women, also filed a request for a temporary restraining order to prevent the Mass, which a judge granted Oct. 6 until the city council takes up the matter.

As a result of the objections and judge’s order, Vainer told Crux that the diocese asked for an emergency city council hearing, but that wasn’t accommodated. There is still no date set for the hearing, he said.

In an Oct. 6 statement, the diocese said “it is our hope that we have the opportunity to speak in front of the City Council, as it is important to express our religious liberties by praying in public.”

[…]

Vainer said the diocese has held the Mass for life on that street for the last six years, except for the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic, without issue. The difference this year, he said, is the addition of a new business on the street, which, with Trust Women, accounted for more than a third of property owners, so that both businesses objecting to the Mass was enough to get it at least temporarily stopped.

Trust Women, according to its website, is an organization that provides resources for abortions, gender affirming care, medication assisted treatment, and sexual health services. The other organization, the Strategic Workspace and Event Center, according to its website, offers office space to businesses.

Reached by Crux, the Strategic Workspace and Event Center declined to comment on why it objected to the diocese’s planned Mass for Life. Crux couldn’t reach Trust Women for comment.

Vainer said the diocese generally draws between 100–250 people to the Mass for Life, which is why the street has to be closed. He added there is no set timeline for rescheduling the Mass, but that they’ll figure something else out if not.

“I definitely think there are alternative options,” Vainer said.

Israel has the ability to target precision strikes.

Hamas hides their military assets in and under residential apartments, schools and hospitals -- thus rendering these as legitimate military targets. Even so, Israel attempts to warn the resident civilians to evacuate before the strike. Hamas does not warn the civilians, preferring to waste innocent lives. They know that Israel and the West value innocent human lives more than they do. Hamas alone is responsible for the lives lost.

Of course, the Orthodox Church does not harbor Hamas rocket launchers and is not a target. Irregardless, Hamas still tries to tell the world that a Christian Church was bombed. They have no use for truth or human lives. Our gullible media reports their lies, all the same.

The Vatican has fallen
The linked article praises the long Catholic ministry to circus performers, as part of our overall ministry to migrant workers.

It is not really surprising that Pope Francis would host a special performance party with a circus from South America traveling through Italy.
===================
Baraboo, WI, is close to my home. It is the ancestral home to Ringling Bros/Barnum & Bailey Circus. And there is also a vibrant national ministry to circus workers based there.

Statistics show that there will be a serious cultural, religious and demographic imbalance in the West in the very near future. The West, decadent, without children, without families, will disappear, drowned and eliminated by a population of Islamic origin -
