The Vatican's Governatorato announced that for Christmas 2020 the “monumental Nativity scene" of Castelli, Abruzzo region, will be displayed in Saint Peter's Square. It was created by Castelli's State art high school for design in 1965-1975. Only a few of the 54 larger than life-size ceramic statues will be exhibited in the Vatican. The ugly figures will be a big disappointment, especially for children. #newsElovrnqkrn

A letter by 1,500 US Catholic Sisters urges President Trump “to respect democracy” and “count every vote” (News.Yahoo.com, November 5). The letter was signed by Sister Simone Campbell, a Democratic Party activist who wants to keep abortion legal. Her letter suggests that “some elected officials” hold onto power “at any cost.” Campbell adds that there are urgent issues like disease prevention, “structural racism,” a “broken immigration system,” “social programs,” and health care for everybody. In an emotional hyperbole, she writes that “Americans know” that “thoughts and prayers alone” will not end their “pain and suffering.” She addresses Trump, “We took vows as Catholic Sisters, and you took a vow to uphold the Constitution. Stay true to your vow. Count the votes.”

Benedict XVI's health is not critical nor worsened, Archbishop Georg Gänswein told the Italian weekly Oggi (November 4). After an interruption due to a now cured facial infection, Benedict started walking again in the Vatican gardens with his walker. He is frail, his voice is very weak, but his mind is clear. Benedict concelebrates Mass, prays, receives a few visits, reads, studies, listens to music and deals with correspondence, “He rests more often because his strength has diminished” but "he is in a good and serene mood.” #newsQodqowuwzs

He displayed photographs of black persons like saints, included George Floyd, a petty crook who died from a drug overdose. In the form of a creed, Boller asked the faithful to confirm his “racial justice” ideology: “Do you support racial justice, equity and compassion in human relations?" - Yes.

"Do you affirm that white privilege in the culture of white supremacy must be dismantled where it is present?" - Yes. "Do you support racial equity, justice and liberation for every person?" - Yes. "Do you affirm the inherent worth and dignity of every person." - Yes. "Will you strive to understand more deeply what injustice and suffering white privilege and white supremacy cause?" - Yes. "Will you commit to help transform our church …More

"I feel very much at home with you," Dublin Archbishop Diarmuid Martin told Muslims at a Friday male-only Eid Celebrations at the Croke Park football stadium. Martin said he was honoured that he was asked to be “part of your celebration” and that he has been a “guest at so many Muslim celebrations.” During his address those present maintained sanitary distance while sitting on their prayer mats. Some wore face masks. Martin remembered that Croke Park hosted in 2018 Francis and called “our celebration” a gesture of recognising publicly the place of the Muslim community as part of the "Irish family." One wonders whether Martin would also have found so nice words for Old-Rite-Catholics. #newsYovdhmlbal
