The VaticanNews portal reports on an ecumenical initiative in Krasnoyarsk, Siberia, where Catholics, Orthodox, and Protestants jointly operate “Mobile Feeding Stations” for the homeless since 2020. The project involves the Sisters of Mercy of St. Charles Borromeo (SMCB) and emphasizes “mercy” as practical aid, ecumenical prayer, and shared service. The article presents this collaboration as a model of Christian unity and social action, quoting participants who claim it fulfills Christ’s desire for unity without waiting for church authorities.
This narrative is a quintessential manifestation of the post-conciliar apostasy—a naturalistic, human-centered “charity” that deliberately omits the absolute necessity of the Catholic Faith and the public reign of Christ the King. It is a concrete implementation of the errors condemned by Pope Pius IX in the *Syllabus of Errors* and Pope St. Pius X in *Lamentabili sane exitu*, now institutionalized in the “conciliar sect.”
Ecumenism: The Heresy of “Unity Without Conversion”
The article celebrates “Christians of various denominations” acting “together” and quotes Sr. Letycja Gorniewicz, SMCB: “We don’t need to wait for Church authorities to unite us. We can unite around Christ ourselves.” This is a direct repudiation of Catholic unity, which requires doctrinal integrity and submission to the Roman Pontiff. Pope Pius XI, in *Quas Primas*, defined the Kingdom of Christ as one, holy, catholic, and apostolic—**not** a federation of competing “denominations.”
The Syllabus of Errors (1864) condemns:
– **Error #18:** “Protestantism is nothing more than another form of the same true Christian religion…”
– **Error #77:** “In the present day it is no longer expedient that the Catholic religion should be held as the only religion of the State, to the exclusion of all other forms of worship.”
Here, “various denominations” are treated as equally valid paths to “serve the homeless,” implying religious indifferentism. The article’s silence on converting Russia to the Catholic Faith is deafening—precisely the error noted in the *False Fatima Apparitions* file: “The imprecise formulation ‘conversion of Russia’ (without specifying Catholicism) opens the way to religious relativism.” This Siberian project operationalizes that relativism.
“Mercy” Divorced from Sacramental Grace and Dogmatic Truth
The motto “Mercy is not about pity, but about help” reduces *misericordia* to mere social work. Pope Pius XI, in *Quas Primas*, insisted that Christ’s reign must order **all** human relations: “the state is happy not by one means, and man by another; for the state is nothing else than a harmonious association of men.” True mercy flows from the Sacrifice of the Mass and the Sacraments—the “spiritual nourishment” the Church provides.
The article mentions prayer meetings but never the Most Holy Sacrifice. There is no reference to Baptism, Confession, or the Eucharist as necessary for salvation. This is the “reduction of the Church’s mission to naturalistic humanism” condemned by St. Pius X in *Pascendi Dominici gregis* (1907), which *Lamentabili sane exitu* reiterates:
– **Prop. 41:** “The sacraments merely serve to remind man of the presence of the ever-benevolent Creator.”
– **Prop. 52:** “Christ did not intend to establish the Church as a community lasting for centuries…”
The “Sisters” of SMCB, operating in a post-1968 religious institute, are part of the “conciliar sect.” Their “charity” is idolatrous if performed in schism or heresy. As the *Defense of Sedevacantism* file establishes, a manifest heretic (like the antipopes since John XXIII) loses office *ipso facto*. Thus, any “ordination” or “consecration” after 1958 is valid only if the recipient maintains Catholic Faith—otherwise, it is a nullity. These “Sisters” have no legitimate authority.
Ecumenism as the “Diversion from Apostasy”
The *False Fatima Apparitions* file warns: “The message focuses on external threats (communism), omitting the main danger: modernist apostasy within the Church.” This Siberian project is a perfect example: it addresses material poverty while ignoring the spiritual famine caused by the loss of Faith. The article quotes: “When Christians are united, it’s not ‘us’ and ‘them’—it’s ‘we’.” This “unity” is the very “ecumenical project” of the *Fatima* file: “The imprecise formulation ‘conversion of Russia’… opens the way to religious relativism.”
Pope Pius IX’s *Syllabus* (Error #55) condemns: “The Church ought to be separated from the State, and the State from the Church.” Yet here, “Christians” of all stripes merge into a single “we,” dissolving the Catholic Church’s exclusive claim to truth. The “shared donations” and “prayer together” are acts of schism, violating Canon 188.4 of the 1917 Code (cited in the *Sedevacantism* file): “Every office becomes vacant… if the cleric: 4. Publicly defects from the Catholic faith.”
The Omission of Christ’s Social Kingship
Pius XI’s *Quas Primas* is explicit: Christ’s reign must permeate **all** society. “The state must leave the same freedom to the members of Orders… but the state is happy not by one means, and man by another.” The article’s “help” is confined to soup kitchens—no call for rulers to recognize Christ’s authority, no demand for laws based on Divine Law. This is the secularism Pius XI lamented: “When God and Jesus Christ… were removed from laws and states… the foundations of that authority were destroyed.”
The feeding stations operate within a state (Russia) that is officially atheist and persecutes the Catholic Church. There is no mention of converting the state or demanding religious freedom **for Catholicism alone** (as per *Syllabus* Error #79: “It is false that the civil liberty of every form of worship… conduce more easily to corrupt the morals”). Instead, the project adapts to the secular order, serving “all denominations” equally—a capitulation to the “secularism of our times” Pius XI condemned.
Symptomatic of the Conciliar Revolution
The project began in 2020, during the “pandemic” crisis orchestrated by the “paramasonic structure” occupying the Vatican. Its ecumenical model mirrors *Fratelli tutti* (2020) and the “humanity-wide” errors of the *Syllabus* (Errors #39-44). The “Sisters” quote: “This is a place where one person encounters another.” This is the “cult of man” replacing the worship of God.
The article’s language is dripping with Modernist sentimentality: “heart ached,” “wonderful wife,” “powerful sign for all who are searching for God.” This is the “reduction of doctrine to practical function” condemned by Pius X (*Lamentabili* Prop. 26). Where are the warnings about mortal sin, the necessity of Confession, the danger of Hell? Silence on the supernatural is the gravest accusation.
Conclusion: An Abomination of Desolation
This “ministry” is a work of the Antichrist—a false mercy that soothes consciences while souls perish in heresy. It operationalizes the *Syllabus*’s Error #16: “Man may, in the observance of any religion whatever, find the way of eternal salvation.” The “ecumenical team” is a syncretist sect, and the “Sisters” are apostate women playing at religion.
True Catholic charity, as taught by St. Pius X and Pius IX, would:
1. Preach the Catholic Faith as the **only** path to salvation.
2. Demand the conversion of Russia to the One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church.
3. Operate under the exclusive jurisdiction of a valid bishop in communion with the pre-1958 Church.
4. Subordinate all social work to the Sacrifice of the Mass and the salvation of souls.
This project does none of these. It is a “psychological operation” (as in the *Fatima* file) to make apostasy appear holy. The “Mobile Feeding Stations” are stations of the *abomination of desolation* standing in the holy place—feeding bodies while starving souls of the Bread of Life.
