VaticanNews portal reports on April 27, 2026, that the usurper Leo XIV (Robert Prevost) held an audience with Dame Sarah Mullally, the Archbishop of Canterbury, during which he urged Catholics and Anglicans to “proclaim Christ to the world together” while working to overcome divisions, framing this ecumenical collaboration as a “common vocation” and warning that failure to do so would constitute a “scandal.” This meeting, replete with prayer in the Urban VIII Chapel and exchanges of gifts, reveals the conciliar sect’s relentless pursuit of false ecumenism — a direct repudiation of the Church’s immutable teaching that there is no salvation outside the Catholic Church and that dialogue with heretics aimed at “overcoming differences” rather than demanding their conversion is a betrayal of the Most Holy Sacrifice of Calvary.
The Apostolic Constitution Against the Ecumenical Fraud
The meeting between Leo XIV and Mullally is not an isolated incident but the logical and necessary fruit of the conciliar revolution that began with John XXIII’s opening of the windows to the world. The usurper explicitly recalled the “historic encounter between Pope St. Paul VI and Archbishop Michael Ramsey” sixty years ago — a reference to the infamous 1966 meeting that inaugurated the post-conciliar ecumenical disaster. That encounter, which produced the Anglican-Roman Catholic International Commission (ARCIC), was itself a rupture with centuries of Catholic teaching. Pope Leo XIII, in his Apostolic Curae of 1896, declared Anglican ordinations “absolutely null and utterly void” — a definitive judgment that no usurper has the authority to reverse, for it concerns the Faith itself. The meeting with Mullally, who is not even a validly ordained bishop, let alone a Catholic, is an act of formal cooperation with heresy that would have been unthinkable to any true successor of St. Peter.
The Heresy of “Proclaiming Christ Together”
Leo XIV’s statement that “we must not allow these continuing challenges to prevent us from using every possible opportunity to proclaim Christ to the world together” is a masterpiece of modernist equivocation. The phrase “proclaim Christ together” presupposes that the Anglican Communion possesses some portion of the truth and some legitimate mission to evangelize — a proposition condemned by Pope Pius XI in Mortalium Animos (1928), where he wrote that “the union of Christians can only be promoted by promoting the return to the one true Church of Christ of those who are separated from it, for in the past they have unhappily left it.” The usurper’s language transforms the Church’s divinely mandated mission to convert heretics and schismatics into a collaborative venture between equals. This is not Catholic ecclesiology; it is the ecumenism of the Council — the same ecumenism that Pope Pius XI condemned as “founded on the erroneous opinion that all religions are more or less good and praiseworthy.”
The “Unarmed Peace” Rhetoric and the Denial of the Church’s Militant Nature
The usurper’s invocation of the “unarmed” peace of the risen Lord — “He always responded to violence and aggression in an unarmed way, inviting us to do likewise” — is a deliberate distortion of the Gospel to serve the conciliar agenda of accommodation. Christ, who drove the money changers from the temple with a whip (John 2:15), who warned that he came not to bring peace but a sword (Matthew 10:34), and who declared “He who is not with Me is against Me” (Matthew 12:30), is recast as a gentle facilitator of interfaith dialogue. This rhetoric of “unarmed peace” serves to disarm the Church in her battle against error, precisely as the Syllabus of Errors (1864) condemned in its eightieth proposition: “The Roman Pontiff can, and ought to, reconcile himself, and come to terms with progress, liberalism and modern civilization.” The usurper’s language is the language of surrender — surrender to the world, surrender to heresy, and surrender to the enemies of Christ the King.
The Scandal Is Not Division — The Scandal Is the Conciliar Sect Itself
Leo XIV invoked the words of his predecessor, the apostate Bergoglio, declaring it “would be a scandal if, due to our divisions, we did not fulfill our common vocation to make Christ known.” This inversion of reality is breathtaking. The true scandal is not the division between the Catholic Church and Anglicanism — a division caused by Henry VIII’s schism and the subsequent Protestant apostasy. The true scandal is the conciliar sect itself, which has abandoned the Faith, corrupted the sacraments, and now collaborates with the very heretics it was once the Church’s duty to convert. The true scandal is that the structures occupying the Vatican have spent sixty years dismantling the Church’s missionary mandate and replacing it with a naturalistic humanism that treats all religions as equally valid paths to God. As Pope Pius XI taught in Quas Primas, “the reign of our Savior” extends over all men and all nations, and the duty of rulers and peoples is to publicly acknowledge and obey Christ the King — not to engage in ecumenical handshakes with those who deny His divinity, His Real Presence, and the authority of His Church.
The Silence That Condemns
What is conspicuously absent from this entire report is any mention of the supernatural order, the necessity of conversion to the Catholic Faith, the state of grace, the reality of sin, or the final judgment. There is no call for the Anglicans to return to the one true Church. There is no acknowledgment that Mullally leads a communion that denies transubstantiation, rejects papal infallibility, ordains women, and blesses sodomite unions. The entire encounter is framed in the bureaucratic language of diplomacy — “dialogue,” “friendship,” “journeying together” — language that reveals the complete evacuation of Catholic content from the conciliar sect’s ecclesiology. This is the abomination of desolation spoken of by Our Lord (Matthew 24:15): a counterfeit church occupying the temple of God, proclaiming itself to be the Church of Christ while systematically denying everything that makes the Church Catholic.
The Duty of the Faithful
The faithful who profess the integral Catholic faith must recognize these encounters for what they are: acts of apostasy performed by a usurper who has no authority to act in the name of Christ or His Church. The true Church endures — in the faithful who profess the unchanging Creed, who receive the true sacraments from validly ordained priests, and who refuse to participate in the ecumenical fraud. As Pope Pius IX declared in the Syllabus of Errors, the Church is a perfect society, entirely free, endowed with proper and perpetual rights by her Divine Founder, and she depends on no earthly power — least of all on the approval of heretical sects. The path forward is not dialogue with the conciliar sect or its Anglican partners, but a return to the immutable Tradition of the Church: the Most Holy Sacrifice of the Mass as offered before 1958, the sacraments as administered by true priests, and the uncompromising proclamation that outside the Catholic Church there is no salvation — Extra Ecclesiam nulla salus.
