Comes one day after Pope asks Grand Master Matthew Festing to resign
ROME (ChurchMilitant.com) - The former Grand Chancellor of the Knights of Malta, dismissed from the order after a condom scandal, has reportedly been reinstated. This takes place only one day after Grand Master Matthew Festing stepped down after nine years as head of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta, at the request of the Holy Father. The Order announced Wednesday it would convene a Sovereign Council to formalize his resignation January 28:
Christopher Lamb, a writer at the U.K.'s Tablet, tweeted late Wednesday morning: "Hearing that Von Boeselager now reinstated as Grand Chancellor of @orderofmalta with all decisions taken post-Dec 5th revoked."
Church Militant asked for the source of the reports, and Lamb responded, "Sources inside order + Cardinal Parolin's December letter says action against Boeselager should be suspended."

Very Strange happenings. El Papa Marx has long outlived his usefulness. Too bad Trump is otherwise occupied fixin’ stuff.
No surprise. Bergoglio is for divorce, sacrilegious Communion, condoms, sodomy, and abortion.
Bing for emma bonino pope francis
Frankie and the Germans have got their boy back.
Word is Pope Francis is getting money from George Soros - So I think Soros needs to be neutralized first - but how ???
My hopes is that this administration will do something.

Disagree. The inner workings of the Catholic Church, or any church for that matter, is not the proper business of the Government of the United States. This is for the Catholics to handle, and the Catholics alone.
Exactly.
Best thing we can do is pray for Holy Mother Church.
True. Fair enough.
I wouldn’t be surprised to learn that Soros has ties to heroin, or pizza-gate, or both. Expose him and then lock his @ss up.
Why do I have a feeling that this will lead to somebody on Malta being assassinated?
Trump? You want a Presbyterian to get involved in a RC issue?
The Knights of Malta are headquartered in Italy, they haven’t been in Malta for a couple hundred years.
Siege of Malta was most heroic bad ass defense of siege ever. Get the book by Colonel Fulllerton
What happened?
Bad phrasing on my part. I meant in the order.
But you are right in that nothing good can come of this.
Amen
