The Holy See has confirmed the Pope's attendance at the Congress of Leader of World and Traditional Religions in September where he will be joined by representatives of Islam, Judaism, Buddhism, and Orthodox Christians and Protestants for discussions centered on 'inter-religious dialogue.'
VATICAN CITY (LifeSiteNews) – The Holy See has confirmed that Pope Francis will attend the seventh World Religions Congress in Kazakhstan this September.
The pontiff is throwing his support behind the international “interfaith” meeting aimed at the “development of humanity” following the worldwide COVID-19 response.
According to a joint communiqué released by the Holy See Press Office on May 31 and signed by both Archbishop Paul Gallagher on behalf of the Holy See and Kazakhstani Deputy Prime Minister Mukhtar Tileuberdi, Pope Francis will travel to Kazakhstan’s capital Nur-Sultan for the seventh Congress of Leaders of World and Traditional Religions from September 14–15.
Before now, the pontiff had only signalled his desire to join the interreligious meeting without confirming his attendance, stating in a video address on April 11 his support for Kazakhstan’s “diverse and united” country as “a basis for stability” despite the nation being overwhelmingly Muslim.
Catholics represent just 1 percent of Kazakhstan’s population of 20 million.
Gallagher and Tileuberdi wrote that “a culture of dialogue must be one of the basic values of the contemporary world. The continuation of peaceful coexistence in the face of contemporary challenges is achievable only through an inclusive and comprehensive dialogue.”
“Therefore,” the joint statement continued, “Kazakhstan welcomes the decision of Pope Francis to attend the VII Congress of Leaders of World and Traditional Religions, to be held in Nur-Sultan in September 2022, as agreed during the high-level talks between the President of Kazakhstan H.E. Mr. Kassym-Jomart Tokayev and the Pope on April 11, 2022.”

Interestingly, the Kazakh Catholic bishops like Schneider are pretty great. It’ll be interesting to see how they handle Bergoglio’s antics.
Maybe he’ll bow to Mecca.
Time for a church split, IMO.
Kazakhstan? As in Astana? Francis? THAT would be a coinkydink!
I’ve heard it said that with all the changes in the Roman Catholic church since the Reformation, with those changes, Martin Luther would still be Roman Catholic.
I guess the Roman Catholic church need a ne ‘reformation! Besides, according to zPew Research, there are 40,000 Christian denominations. With a new ‘reformation, what’s a few more thousand denominations?
Then you've been listening to screwballs.
The apostate will attend this Assisi IV; yet he can’t even celebrate or acknowledge the feast of Corpus Christi this year.
Instead, he’ll be hosting his “X World Meeting of Families”. And his “families” include the whole LGBT+ spectrum of perverts.
Kazakhstan? As in Astana? Francis? THAT would be a coinkydink!
Cue the NWO/globalist conspiracy coincidence theorists.
