The Swiss bishops submitted a report to the Vatican on 13 May on the local synod on synodality. Excerpts:
- "Synodal decisions that marginalize or exclude people and their experiences, especially women, queer people and the socially disadvantaged, are contrary to the mission of the Church."

- "The question of [...] the inclusion of women in all [!] ministries is an important issue".
- "The exclusion of women from the priesthood is no longer understood in many places".

This is just one step.....towards the longer term aim of women priests, Bishops, Cardinals and maybe even the first woman Pope. Jorge would be very happy with these Swiss Bishops in their support for him in his efforts to change (ie destroy) the Church in such a way that it cannot be reversed.

We don't know all the behind the scenes detail, but we can see the big picture in where this is all going and who many of the major players are and the deceptive games they play.

If they want to revive the informal non-liturgical, non-ordained Deconeses from the early Church, then fine; as long as they do exactly what Deconeses did in the early Church, which was assisting adult women with catechism and baptism. They didn't wear liturgical robes, nor did they instruct men or have anything to do with the liturgy. But, that's not what the modernist bishops are up to. In the …More

In the name of the early Church, they want to inovate something totally new that will be a psueduo-eclessiastic order for women that will do many of the functions of the ordained diaconate.

These bishops, whether they realize it or not, are without a doubt the servants of the devil. Accordingly, what they profess is the religion of satan. In other words, they are satanists, even if they don't realize it.
