Seville Archdiocese’s Down Syndrome Godmother Decision Exposes Modernist Apostasy
Catholic News Agency reports that the Archdiocese of Seville reversed a priest’s decision blocking Noelia García, a 19-year-old with Down syndrome, from serving as baptismal godmother. After media pressure, archdiocesan officials authorized the baptism with García as godmother, citing “pastoral accompaniment and prudence” while regretting “harm caused by the handling” of the case. The article notes García’s “serious difficulty expressing herself” and her failure to complete the required godparent formation program at the parish where the baptism would occur.
