The Pillar Catholic portal reports on a new Vatican synod department document, “Towards the Assemblies 2027-2028,” issued May 20, 2026, which details preparations for a 2028 “ecclesial assembly” in Rome. The document, approved by the antipope Leo XIV, outlines a four-stage process of “Recollecting,” “Interpreting,” “Orienting,” and “Celebrating” — a continuation of the global synodal process launched by the heretic Francis in 2021. Cardinal Mario Grech, secretary general of the Synod of Bishops, presented the text following a meeting with Leo XIV. The process involves local “evaluation assemblies,” national bishops’ conference assemblies, continental assemblies, culminating in a Rome gathering that is carefully distinguished from a synod yet mirrors its structures. The document emphasizes that synodality is “a way of being” and stresses the “Holy Father’s” determinative role, with the assembly’s conclusions “offered to the Holy Father as the fruit of the process of discernment.” This entire apparatus represents nothing less than the institutionalization of permanent revolution within the conciliar sect, a mechanism designed to ensure that the apostasy initiated by John XXIII can never be reversed, questioned, or subjected to the immutable criteria of Catholic truth.
