Dance, then, wherever you may be,
I am the Lord Archbishop of the dance, said he,
And I'll lead you all, wherever you may be,
And I'll lead you all in the synodal journey, said he.

In a reflection for Vatican Media, Cardinal Blase Joseph Cupich draws on the traditional Croatian kolo dance as an image of the Church’s synodal journey. He says the Church is called to move from individual performance to collective harmony by listening to the “divine melody” that guides its life and mission.

Pope Leo has appointed Cupich to the Pont Cmn for Vatican City State. And confirmed Roche & Farrell.
I can only hope appt of non-Curial Cupich foreshadows his summons to Rome as the new President of the Pontifical Cmn for the Cinque Ports or something

@JamesMartinSJ I'm sure you have known many fine religious sisters who have given a life of service to the Church and the People of God. Yet you say it's alright for a Catholic to support this sort of Pride celebration.

@JamesMartinSJ So it's okay to mock Catholics, our faith, our leaders and religious life, as happens every year at the Sydney LGBT Mardi Gras? One year there was a giant float of the late George Cardinal Pell handing out condoms from a big gold chalice.
