Day by day, it becomes clearer and clearer that Counterfeit Newpope Prevost-Leo was a plant by the Bergoglians to push the Synodal Newchurch of the New Order, which is most certainly NOT the Catholic Church, into a level of apostasy that could not be believed even in May 2025, when he was elected to head the Synodal Newchurch. Recently, he tried to become an Eastern Orthodox schismatic on his junket of November 2025 to Turkey, when he met with the schismatic so-called Oecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew I. The Eastern Orthodox are still wary of Newchurchers, so nothing concrete came out of the meeting, though Leo really wanted a membership card in the Orthodox sect.
So, on April 20, 2026, Prevost took his apostasy another step further by granting to the heretic new Archbishopess of Canterbury, Sarah Mullalley, an official audience and inviting her to conduct a blasphemous "blessing" in St. Peter's Archbasilica at the very tomb of St. Peter, whose authority she and Prevost reject. Prevost sent her off with a congratulatory letter for her\ election as the first female Archbishopess of Canterbury, which became a heretic see since its takeover in 1534 by the mad King Henry VIII.
Prevost made no reference to the fact that, firstly, according to the teaching of the Catholic Church Anglican orders are "absolutely null and utterly void" by decree of Pope Leo XIII in his Papal Bull "Apostolicae curae" and, secondly, the ordination of women is impossible and contrary the teaching and practice of Christ Himself. If you want to know what the Protestant-Masonic-Pagan Synodal Newchurch of the New Order will become, just look at the Protestant Anglicans of the Church of England. Historically, Newchurch has followed the apostasy and corruption of the Anglican sect in lockstep.
The appointment of Sarah Mullally as the first female Anglican Archbishopess of Canterbury and leader of the heretic Church of England, has caused public outcry and backlash. In 2025 the traditionalist Global Anglican Future Conference (GAFCON), said to represent some 80 per cent of Anglicans around the world, formally dissociated itself from the Church of England and rejected Mullally as being an apostate from the Christian faith. [Some information for this Commentary was contributed by LS News.]
Traditional Catholics, like the Synodal Newchurch of the New Order, the Anglican sect is being ripped apart by internal divisions between conservatives and leftists. Mullally herself is an apostate from the Christian faith, supporting the installation of priestesses, liberalized sexual morality, and the blessing of "gay" and lesbian "marriages." Newpope Prevost-Leo is in virtually the same situation, as his Newchurch has been falling apart from plummeting attendance and closing of Newseminaries; from paedophile presbyers, Newbishops, and Newcardinals; and from counterfeit (invalid) "liturgies," some of them staged in St. Peter's Archbasilica itself!
The new May 1 Feast of St. Joseph the Workman ("Worker" in genderless "modernized" English) was widely reviled in the Church at the time by the highest authorities, and was derisively called the Feast of "Joe the Worker" or the "Pseudo-feast of San Giuseppe Comunista" by the Romans and others, as it fell on Communist May Day. The traditional Sacred Congregation of Rites rejected Bugnini's new feast, and there was open opposition in the Church to it. Opposition to the new feast was so strong that the Sacred Congregation of Rites refused for four years to formulate the Gregorian-chant Mass and Divine Office for the new feast.
From the early Church the Holy Apostles Philip and James the Less (brother of St. Jude Thaddeus) have shared the same feast day, May 1, because the relics of the martyrs were solemnly translated from New Rome, i.e., Constantinople, by Pope Pelagius I to the Church of the Holy Apostles at Rome, where they still rest. St. Philip brought the Catholic Faith to Scythia. St. James the Less was author of the Epistle in the New Testament.
