Move over Sister Cristina...here are more singing Novus Ordo nuns!

The Eucharistic Communicators of the Heavenly Father are a community of nuns from Colombia who have a great passion for music and an intense desire to announce God through the gifts he has given them.

Sister María Victoria de Jesús told CNA the mission of their apostolate “is to evangelize through as many means of communication as possible,” and added that the charism of the sisters “is to communicate the love of God the Father.”

The Eucharistic Communicators of the Heavenly Father were formed in 2004 by Mother Gabriela del Amor Crucificado and Father Antonio Lootens, from two communities of hermits. They are based in the Archdiocese of Cali, in southwestern Colombia, and the community includes 65 religious women dedicated to evangelization through social media.

Sister Maria of Nazareth, who founded the musical group within the community, recalled “the words of Paul VI that the Church would be culpable if it did not use the powerful medium of television, and that John Paul II said there should be a group of consecrated persons dedicated to communications media: and thus our community was born.”

Sister María Victoria de Jesús noted that their music ministry “began three years ago, when we produced our first CD with the help of some lay persons.”

“In the past year, we began producing music videos so as to reach many more people. We work in all that is artistic and audiovisual: radio, film, music, television, and social media.”

While the community was principally founded to work in communications media in 2004, “the musical power emerged spontaneously with the sisters who were given musical talents.”

Sister Maria of Nazareth commented that “before bringing a message, it is necessary to have a witness of life, to be faithful to the Lord, and to his call. Really, our vows of poverty, obedience, and chastity help us to give of ourselves. The first medium of communication is our life and it is this that the world needs – living gospels. Then the rest follows.”

The texts, production, direction, and recording are done by the sisters themselves, who are prepared within their community to be able to perform these tasks.

“Visually we develop it all; we are trained to make a good audiovisual product. We develop it as a producer because we want the content to be high quality, to be the best for the Lord,” she said.

“Our goal is to support all the dioceses so that there is strength in the Church, and not just in Cali. To have a presence wherever there are persons who do not believe, do not know God, to look for the lost sheep and to strengthen those who are in the fold,” noted Sister Maria of Nazareth.

“When people listen to us they say they feel great peace, the love of God the Father, and some even cry. The sisters by their life of prayer touch hearts ... which need a voice of encouragement, to feel loved by God. We seek to give people hope,” she concluded.

Francis’ respect for women - May’s The Pope Video

Francis the humble revolutionary gives a brief shout out to the family at 9 seconds in the above video.  Other than that, apparently a woman’s role in life is to be equal to a man and earn as much money as possible.  Francis condemns the slavery of women in the video but neglects to mention that non-Catholics are the one’s enslaving these women.  He skips over this because if he brought it up it would pop his make-believe world of all religions being equally good, leading one to heaven, and treating all women with respect.

 Call Me Jorge... is shocked Rosie wasn’t in the video...

...and surprised Gloria wasn’t either!

Another thing which amazed Call Me Jorge... is that Francis released this video in May!  Doesn’t he know that the communist holiday, International Women's Day, was on March 8th?  As usual Francis has his pectoral cross hidden away and speaking of crosses, none of the women have anything remotely Catholic about them except for what we are assuming is a nun.  The nun looks like she is in school learning rather than out in the field spreading the Faith.  Most of the women are wearing immodest pants, jeans, and shirts.  See any women praying in the video?  Saying a rosary with their family?  At Mass with their children and husband?  Nope, neither did we.

The Blessed Virgin Mary is conspicuously absent from the video.

There are no images of the Holy Family in the video nor are there any images of the greatest woman ever to live, the Blessed Virgin Mary!

What kind of ideas is Francis propagating for women in this video?

Recall on 5 December 2014, Francis told members of the International Theological Commission that,

“I would like to note, in the context of the increasingly diverse composition of the Commission, the greater presence of women — still not enough. … They are the strawberries on the cake, but we want more!”

And then on 4 May 2016, the Vatican Secretary of State, Cardinal Pietro Parolin said,

“A woman could become Secretary of State, in the sense that the role of the Secretary of State is evidently not bound to the sacraments or the priesthood.”

In Francis’ defense one could say that at the least, the women were not portrayed as bimbos like they were in the Pontifical Council for Culture’s video #LifeofWomen.  Francis shows himself to be a modernist once again as he practices the behavior of ‘gender theory’ he loves so much to condemn in others.  One last observation about the video.  Did the viewer notice any wedding rings on the women?  The nun? The mothers?  The professionals?  A woman’s role in life should she choose the vocation of marriage is to be a wife and mother.  Rather than wasting one’s time reading (or watching) what Francis says about the vocation of the married life spend a few minutes and read Casti connubii (On Christian Marriage) by Pius XI.
