South Sudanese Ordination Exposes Conciliar Church’s Abdication of Spiritual Mission
Catholic News Agency reports on four priests and six deacons ordained in South Sudan’s Tombura-Yambio diocese on January 4, 2026. The report centers on Bishop Eduardo Hiiboro Kussala’s homily, which reduces the priesthood to social activism while omitting essential Catholic doctrines on sacramental efficacy and the primacy of grace.
Naturalism Masquerading as Pastoral Care
The ordination homily reveals the conciliar sect’s systematic replacement of sacramental theology with humanitarian activism. Bishop Kussala’s declaration “I am not ordaining you for an ideal country” constitutes a direct repudiation of Quas Primas, wherein Pius XI established that “the empire of our Redeemer embraces all men” (1925). By framing South Sudan’s challenges as primarily socioeconomic rather than spiritual, the bishop follows Bergoglio’s Evangelii Gaudium playbook – reducing the Church’s mission to what Benedict XV condemned as “a philanthropy which is purely human” (Humani Generis Redemptionem, 1917).
The instruction for priests to become “agents of peace, defenders of human dignity, promoters of education” inverts the hierarchical order of ends. Pius X’s Vehementer Nos established that “the Church has the right to govern itself by its own laws… to maintain the integrity of the faith” (1906), yet Kussala subordinates supernatural goals to material concerns. This reflects the conciliar sect’s foundational error condemned in the Syllabus of Errors: “The Church is an enemy of the progress of natural and theological sciences” (Proposition 57).
Sacramental Invalidity and Ecclesiological Subversion
The report conspicuously avoids mentioning whether ordinations followed the traditional rite, raising grave doubts about validity. Leo XIII’s Apostolicae Curae (1896) established that alterations to sacramental form render holy orders invalid. Given the conciliar sect’s adulteration of rites documented in the Ottaviani Intervention (1969), these ordinations likely lack proper sacramental form.
Bishop Kussala’s exhortation to “remain close to the communities” directly contravenes Pius X’s warning against “priests who become social workers” (Haerent Animo, 1908). The true priestly model appears in Pius XI’s Ad Catholici Sacerdotii: “The priest is destined for the altar and the sacraments” (1935). By contrast, this ordination promotes the modernist heresy condemned in St. Pius X’s Pascendi as “reducing the supernatural to the natural” (1907).
False Saints and Perverted Models
The bishop’s invocation of post-conciliar figures like “St. Josephine Bakhita” exemplifies the conciliar sect’s corruption of hagiography. Canonizations performed by antipopes after 1958 possess no recognition in the true Church, as Paul IV’s Cum Ex Apostolatus Officio (1559) established that heretics cannot exercise jurisdiction. The cited examples promote theological errors: St. John Bosco’s vision of “two pillars” (Eucharist and Mary) is replaced with social activism, while Daniel Comboni’s missionary zeal is perverted into human development work.
Omission of Essential Priestly Duties
Notably absent from the homily are:
- The sacrifice of the Mass as “the source and summit of Christian life” (Council of Trent, Session XXII)
- Duty to combat heresy as per Canon 1325 (1917 Code)
- Obligation to offer the traditional Latin Mass
- Necessity of personal sanctification through Eucharistic adoration and Marian devotion
Instead, priests are instructed to focus on temporal concerns like “food security and self-reliance” – objectives foreign to Christ’s mandate to “teach all nations” (Matthew 28:19). This fulfills Pius IX’s warning in the Syllabus against those who would “equate the Church with other false religions” (Proposition 18).
Servants of the Neo-Church
The report’s origin from EWTN-affiliated ACI Africa confirms its role in promoting conciliar errors. The outlet’s claim to provide “media coverage of Catholic events” constitutes fraudulent misrepresentation, given its silence on:
- The suppression of the traditional Latin Mass
- Bergoglio’s Pachamama idolatry
- Systematic destruction of Catholic moral teaching
Bishop Kussala’s reference to “Pope Francis” compounds the scandal, recognizing an antipope who publicly denies Christ’s exclusive mediation. As Pius XII taught in Mystici Corporis (1943): “Only those are to be included as members of the Church who have received the laver of regeneration and profess the true faith.”
The ordination ceremony’s Epiphany date proves ironically appropriate – just as Herod pretended to worship Christ while plotting His destruction, the conciliar sect uses Catholic terminology to advance anti-Catholic agendas. Until true bishops restore valid orders and doctrine, such ceremonies remain sacrilegious parodies of the Apostolic priesthood.
