NEUQUÉN, Argentina, August 18, 2020 (LifeSiteNews) After a controversial nun opened in Argentina a residence for trans women men who choose to identify as women Pope Francis praised her work, referring to the men as girls.
Sister Mónica Astorga Cremona, 53, known locally in Argentina as the Nun of the Trans, cut the ribbon on the new complex of twelve small apartments dedicated solely to housing men claiming to be women and their partners.
Upon hearing the news the Pope responded in a communication, according to the nun, Dear Monica, God who did not go to the seminary or study theology will repay you abundantly. I pray for you and your girls.
The Supreme Pontiff, according to the nun, referred to the males, reported to be between 40 and 70 years old, as girls.
Do not forget to pray for me. May Jesus blesses (sic) you and may the Holy Virgin take care of you, he added, according to a report by Newsflare.
Last year, Cardinal Raymond Burke and Bishop Athanasius Schneider, joined by other prelates, issued a public declaration of truths of the faith where they called it a rebellion and grave sin for a man to attempt to become a woman.
The male and female sexes, man and woman, are biological realities created by the wise will of God (see Gen. 1: 27; Catechism of the Catholic Church, 369). It is, therefore, a rebellion against natural and Divine law and a grave sin that a man may attempt to become a woman by mutilating himself, or even by simply declaring himself to be such, or that a woman may in like manner attempt to become a man, or to hold that the civil authority has the duty or the right to act as if such things were or may be possible and legitimate (see Catechism of the Catholic Church, 2297), the document states.
Pro-LGBT Jesuit priest Fr. James Martin was delighted with the Popes congratulatory words to Sister Monica Cremona, saying in a Tweet: Wow. Pope Francis sends his support for a Catholic sister in Argentina who ministers to transsexual women.

Sister Monica has affirmed since 2015 that Pope Francis has known of her work and that he supports it. Her personal relationship with the pontiff dates back well before that, back to before he was a bishop, according to a 2017 Crux report.
The Discalced Carmelite explained in a Queering the Church report at the time that the Pope told her in an email, In Jesus time, the lepers were rejected like that. They [the trans women] are the lepers of these times. Dont leave this work on the frontier that is yours.
Though indistinct in English ... Francis used the female pronoun when saying that the transgender persons are the lepers of today, according to Cruxs Inés San Martín.
In 2016, Pope Francis referred to a woman who had undergone a sex-change operation as a man, and also referred to her as having married another woman and admitted to receiving them in the Vatican last year.
Referring to the post-trans surgery woman, the Pope said, He got married.
He that was her but is he, explained Pope Francis. Pope Francis meeting with woman who underwent sex-change surgery (to right of pope) and her 'wife' (to left of pope.)
Sister Monica, in a video interview at the opening of the trans home, said that Catholics have made people who present themselves as a member of the opposite sex live in darkness.
My dream was that the Trans had a dignified home because they are never given this opportunity. They do not have any rights to anything. The apartments are very bright and they have lived in darkness because of us - we made them live in darkness. Because we have turned our back on them and they always lived in darkness, she said.
So they need to take advantage of this light, as I call it, of this place that is the only one in the world. There are no houses for trans in any part of the world, she added.
One man, who will be living in the new complex while identifying as female, said that people like him face many difficulties.
The places that we have always lived and we have always rented, the people always took advantage of our condition of being trans women. On a lease that was charging 5,000 pesos, just for an example, we would pay 15,000 just because we were trans. Just because we were trans women, he said in the video report.
And it's not like a place like this one that is clean, with all services. We have lived in places with humidity, rats, insects. Trans women always live poorly, he explained.
The Tutored Social Condominium for Trans Women, conceived by Sister Monica, was built by the Provincial Institute of Housing and Urbanism (IPVU) with government funds in Argentine Patagonia. Its operation has been turned over to the Discalced Carmelites.

What in the world is going on?
How much longer is church leadership going to just sit by and allow this pretender to destroy the entirety of Catholic and Christian doctrine ?
Satan has his puppet in the Vatican. Time to excise this malignant cancer for good.
This doesnt sound good. Not at all.
Until the pretender destroys all Catholic doctrine. And with each one that falls, they'll say, "thank you sir, may I have another?"
Who would have ever thought that you would have to pray for the conversion of the Pope.
They put the fun in dysfunctional. WHOO HOO
The Pope can not change doctrine. He does not have that power.
What he is doing is misleading the followers of the church in to disregarding doctrine.
You don’t. You do have to pray for the conversion of an anti-pope however. Popes are Catholic. Not only is this a theological requirement, but simple logic.
So your saying that Frankie is wearing a dress?
More foolishness from Pope Heretic !
For heaven’s sake, can he at least pretend to support Catholic moral teaching?
He’s your pope. Is there an impeachment proceeding? Can the Cardinals be trusted to do it?
In one sentence, the Francis takes a swipe at God, seminarians and theologians in order to support his "girls".
Honestly, this guy must be LGBTQABC himself.
