Neo-Church’s African Outreach Exposes Apostolic Void
The “Catholic News Agency” portal describes the first official meeting between the antipope Leo XIV and leaders of the Symposium of Episcopal Conferences of Africa and Madagascar (SECAM) as a “new chapter for Church in Africa.” The January 17, 2026 audience featured “Cardinal” Fridolin Ambongo and other conciliar sect representatives discussing their 2025 Plenary Assembly theme “Christ, Source of Hope, Reconciliation, and Peace.” Ambongo praised the antipope’s potential African visit as “pastoral and prophetic,” while lamenting conflicts in the Democratic Republic of Congo. This spectacle of ecclesial theater epitomizes the conciliar sect’s substitution of supernatural faith for humanitarian platitudes.
