ROME — Pope Francis traveled to the island nation of Cyprus Thursday, where he told a gathering of priests and religious that there are “no walls in the Catholic Church.”
The Church is catholic, “that is, universal, an open space in which all are welcomed and reached by the mercy of God and the invitation to love,” the pontiff asserted in the Maronite Cathedral of Our Lady of Grace in Nicosia.

CDC redefined vaccination so I guess the changed the meaning to the separators in a building and even the devices that hold up buildings.

Pope is claiming that the church is open to everyone. This is not the teachings of Jesus. Jesus taught that repentance (change of heart / thinking) was required.
From that time on Jesus began to preach, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near.” Matt 4:17
I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance. Luke 5:32
I tell you, no! But unless you repent, you too will all perish. Luke 13:3

Pope, see the religious persecution in China? If free governments are destroyed with massive illegal immigration, that will be commonplace.

“no walls in the Catholic Church.”
However, there is a huge stone wall, guarded all the time, around the Vatican.............
