ROME - Some 40 bishops participating in the Synod of Bishops on the Amazon gathered Sunday in the Catacombs of St. Domitilla in Rome to renew a pact signed in 1965 by 42 prelates at the Second Vatican Council calling for a poor church.
Though both Pacts of the Catacombs were inspired by a commitment to building a poor church for the poor, there are striking differences between the 1965 original and the one signed this time around, including length.
This weeks pact is rooted in the Amazon, and some elements may be harder to embrace by the universal Church, as the original declaration was intended to be.
Titled Pact of the Catacombs for the Common Home, for a Church with an Amazonian face, Poor and Servant, Prophetic and Samaritan, Sundays declaration among other points calls for recognition of the real diakonia of a great number of women who today direct communities in the Amazon.
Another difference is that this one was signed by lay people, including women. As one woman went up to sign, she referred to herself as a synod mother, a parallel to bishops participating in the Oct. 6-27 Synod of Bishops on the Amazon who are called synod fathers.

Wouldn’t it be better to preach the gospel to the people of the Amazon, rather than indulge their primitive proclivities?
How does this impress God?
Silly boys...
LOL, one of the most fatuous, hypocritical statements ever made by a bunch of comfy lifetime-tenure leftists. They should be floating down the Tiber with their beloved Pachamama

Problem is that these heretics are out in the open, not in the catacombs, with the protection of Francis.
It’s Archbishop Vigano, Fr. Paul Kalchik (the Chicago priest who let his parishoners burn a homo flag found in his sacristy and is now being hunted like a dog by franciscardinal, Cupcake Cupich), the two Christeros who threw the pagan pachamama idols into the Tiber, who are now relegated to the catacombs, being hunted by a dictator pope.
And they seem to be spurning the teachings of our Saviour, Jesus, and both the Old and New Testaments.
