PopeWatch: Petition

PopeWatch2-199x300-199x300-199x300

 

Lifesite News is sponsoring a Petition to the Pope:

 

Here is the text of the Petition:

 

To: His Holiness, Pope Francis

Recently four cardinals sent you a letter expressing their concerns about what they called the “grave disorientation” and “great confusion” that has followed in the wake of the publication of the apostolic exhortation, Amoris Laetitia.

Bearing in mind canon law (§ 212:3) which states that the faithful “have the right and even at times the duty to manifest to the sacred pastors their opinion on matters which pertain to the good of the Church” I express to you my full support for the content of the cardinals’ letter. I also add my voice to their urgent request that you dispel confusion by responding to their five questions with a clear affirmation of the perennial teaching of the Church on marriage, the Sacraments, the moral law, and the nature and role of conscience.

Finally, I assure you of my heartfelt and daily prayers, that you be given the grace to lead Holy Mother Church with wisdom, prudence, and a courageous commitment to proclaiming the Gospel of Life in season and out of season. 

 

Go here to sign it if you wish to.

Sad day when the sheep feel they must petition their shepherd to lead them to safety.

Signed and sent. Probable impact? More angry ranting. But let us pray that Pope Francis will surprise us and see the error of his ways.
