Cardinal Mauro Gambetti explains that the just-established “Fratelli tutti” Foundation aims to promote and support sustainable growth and a new humanism and provide a workshop for the future.
The archpriest of St. Peter’s Basilica explained that a new Vatican Foundation aims to put social justice, solidarity and the construction of the common good at centre-stage.
The just established “Fratelli tutti” Foundation, said Cardinal Mauro Gambetti, will provide the tools to realise an integral humanism in a synodal way, integrating the contribution of each party according to its own area of commitment and competence.
The Foundation was launched on 21 October by Cardinal Gambetti, in the presence of the Italian Minister for Health, and named after Pope Francis’ latest encyclical.
"Politics and economics, the quality of our social and personal relationships,” Cardinal Gambetti said, need to be nurtured in a perspective of integral development.
“It is necessary to write a ‘human dictionary’ that helps us recognize each other, even when we do not know each other in person, allowing us to call each other by name: my brother, my sister," he said.
Thus, Gambetti said, the Foundation will be born from the Fabbrica di San Pietro and will focus on at least three major areas of action: the area that pertains to art, and in particular to sacred art; an area that will deal with formation and training; and one that promotes dialogue between peoples, cultures and religions.
We intend it to be, he continued, a flexible and transparent tool at the service of all, “investing in people and offering them a space in which to meet, to build a community of thought and life and to engage in the world.”

I gave to The Human Fund.
“social justice, solidarity and the construction of the common good”
Hang on, it’s going to be a rough ride.
How nice. Rome has a new Grand Lodge.
Tutti Frutti anyone?
What the heck has happened to the Church?
Oh great, more Marxist crap from the Catholic Church.
Like those fruit jobs need to be any more secular than they already are 🤪
“All Brothers”
Pope Francis’ notion of solidarity is exactly inverse to the real meaning. He imagines it means big government controlling everything. Quite the opposite, it is the goal of subsidiarity, the devolution of all power to the smallest conceptually feasible level of hierarchy. Subsidiarity is necessary for solidarity because only at the lowest levels of hierarchy can a decision-maker be one with those affected by his decisions.
Am I a bad person if I call it “totally fruity”?
Translation only.
You may proceed at your own speed.
Aww, you beat me to it!
He’s trying to desacralize St. Peter’s. It’s going to become what the Europeans call a “cultural center.”
Masses have already been limited to one a day, Novus Ordo only, and the new plan calls for public masses to be only for special events.
This is insane.
“Fratelli tutti”
Ah didn’t realize they had an ice cream shop.
hu·man·ism /ˈ(h)yo͞oməˌnizəm/ Learn to pronounce noun an outlook or system of thought attaching prime importance to human rather than divine or supernatural matters. Humanist beliefs stress the potential value and goodness of human beings, emphasize common human needs, and seek solely rational ways of solving human problems.
Seems to me that there is much too much interest in socialism and tuti fruityism in the Catholic church today and not enough GOD!
