Catholic Charities Award Exposes Neo-Church’s Naturalistic Apostasy
EWTN News Nation reports that Catholic Charities USA (CCUSA) has named Julie Abbott its 2026 Volunteer of the Year for her work on a crisis hotline. Abbott, who spent over 15 years and nearly 5,000 hours answering the Relief & Hope emergency services hotline, was praised for helping callers with “finances, mental health, job loss, car repairs, housing, hunger, or any other situation.” Kerry Alys Robinson, the CCUSA president and CEO, commended Abbott’s “gift of presence and attention” which allows “struggling neighbors to retain their dignity.” The award criteria state that the recipient should embody the mission of CCUSA to “provide critical services to those in need, advocate for justice in social structures, and call the entire Church and other people of goodwill to do the same.” This article is a microcosm of the post-conciliar apostasy, revealing a complete reduction of the supernatural mission of the Church to mere secular social work and psychological counseling, stripping the faith of its divine mandate and replacing it with the worship of “human dignity” and “goodwill.”
