The demons will simply return when she or her husband invite them in, again.
The big question is, was she inside when they performed the exorcism?
Is she sure that priests didn’t just come to bless the house? My understanding is that an actual exorcism requires a lot of investigation and approval from the bishop. I don’t think Archbishop Cordioloene is likely to do her any favors.
Let’s be real. She didn’t find a priest in CA that knows how to do an exorcism and that would do an exorcism.
That said, a full and valid confession is a minor exorcism.
If she called a Jesuit, she may not have received any of the above but a general happy blessing.
Exorcisms won’t keep chickens coming home to roost.
Nancy has forgotten a very simple truth. Sh*t attracts flies.
Until she takes a spiritual bath the flies will continue gather where ever she goes.
Supporting abortion on demand and receiving Our Lord in Holy Communion is scandalous.
There is need for an exorcism if the spirit won’t be cleansed via regular confession…but the penitent must have a contrite heart.
With Nancy, she doesn’t believe she’s doing any wrong by supporting her views and receiving Jesus.
I can’t picture her going into the box to confess her sins of promoting abortion laws. To hell with Church teachings…Nancy is above them.
Same with Brandon.
Flies be their companions until they repent.
If this is true, it would be a major surprise if she actually believes in exorcism. I suspect, as others have noted, that an actual exorcism rite was not likely, given the Archdiocese needing to be involved, and the state of Mrs. Pelosi’s relationship with the Archbishop, not to mention that nothing she ever has said or done, to my knowledge at least, indicates actual belief in the supernatural.
That said, I found the use of scare quotes around the word exorcism by Fox News to be somewhat amusing. Even Fox feels the need to virtue-signal that they don’t really believe in all those old-fashioned stories about demons and stuff. It might be fun to watch their reactions to reading some of what Fr. Amorth has written about his experiences.
The stories cite only a vague reference by Pelosi’s daughter to priests visiting the house over Thanksgiving. It is highly unlikely that this was a genuine exorcism, most likely they were merely performing an informal blessing. Have to wonder, though, if maybe Nancy is finally realizing, in some way, that things have gone too far and she’s going to need some help?
The exorcism will not work on a home if the residents do not fully accept and practice all the truths and tenets of the Catholic Fatih.
Alexandra Pelosi needs to let go of everyone’s leg. You exorcise people, not property. An exorcism requires the approval of a bishop and is quite rare. (I recall Cdl. O’Connor said he had approved a couple during his tenure). Unless Paul Pelosi has been yapping in languages he never studied, it’s unlikely one was approved for him.
Magdalene: She believes. She just thinks she can take advantage of the Irish blessing and beat the devil in a race to heaven before he knows she is dead.
Pelosi is virtue signaling. Some exorcisms take years. A fake Catholic will have a fake exorcism. Charade.
