EWTN News In Depth: Vatican Medjugorje Decision, Voting Catholic & More | September 20, 2024

This election season, correspondent Mark Irons dives into how Catholic voters should be first rooted in Church teaching as they participate in political life – and EWTN’s Vice President of Theology explains how Catholics are called to form their conscience in preparation for voting their conscience. The Vatican approves devotion at Medjugorje, while not pronouncing on the authenticity of the alleged messages – we speak with Marian experts Dr. Gloria Falcão Dodd of the University of Dayton’s International Marian Research Institute and “Miracle Hunter” Michael O’Neill to explore the significance of this Vatican announcement. Nearly four years after pro-democracy advocate Jimmy Lai was arrested in Hong Kong, we’re joined by his son Sebastien Lai for an update on the case. And Brazil’s patroness, Our Lady Aparecida, finally has a home in the nation’s capital – we take you to the joyous celebration.

If helping, we Croats are Catholic and Believe in miracle of apparition but staying in strong faith listening and understand Holly Father and what Vatican said.
For better understanding apparition of Mother Mary Queen of Peace in Međugorje happened in comunist time in place where our Catholic Chuch with Croats people passed hard time and had many victims through comunist history, both ex yugoslawie from mainly reason, couse they believe in Catholic Church, same hard time what Croats in BiH passed in time of Otoman Empire. We Croats simple believe that Apparition of QUEEN of Peace Mother Marry of God is reflection of hard Croats history and stayin in Faith with Holly Father of Pope.

There is also the obligation on the part of the illegal 'immigrant' (or the legal immigrant) to respect the laws of the country they wish to enter, and once given permission, are obligated to contribute to the welfare of the host country. The Church acknowledges that a country has a right to regulate the entry of foreigners, including the right to reject a request for admission. No one in our Church, or on the part of the current civil administration EVER talks about the 'immigrants' obligation, only about the US's (or other countries being invaded) 'requirement' to "welcome the invaders" (aka 'stranger'). Of course, the Catholic 'charities' have a conflict of interest in NOT doing the moral thing (that I explained above), because the current administration is sending them tens of millions of tax dollars, to give the invaders "aid and comfort", which is actually a treasonous act on the part of our Church and those who invade our country. It is, in the final analysis, a 'war' against our country in which Francis and his lackeys are complicit.
