Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI Ends Speculation, Plans to Return to Vatican City...

These Last Days News - April 26, 2013

"Do not abandon My Son any longer by rejecting His Church. Do not judge My Son's Church by man. The foundation is My Son, Jesus. And though the walls may develop cracks, the foundation is solid. Will you not remain and patch these cracks, My children? We do not wish that you break apart into small groups of discord. No schisms must take place in My Son's Church. For all who are baptized a Roman Catholic must die Roman Catholics to enter Heaven. A rejection of the papacy, a rejection of the Faith because of human reasoning shall not be accepted by the Eternal Father in Heaven. Remain faithful and true forever unto the end.” – Our Lady of the Roses, November 20, 1979

The Moynihan Letter reported on April 26, 2013:

Emeritus Pope Benedict XVI is expected to return from Castel Gandolfo to Vatican City in the next few days.

The Emeritus Pope — creating a situation unique in the history of the Church where a former Pope and a reigning Bishop of Rome will be both living inside the Vatican at the same time — will return to the Vatican “between the end of April and the first days of May, as planned,” Father Federico Lombardi, S.J., director of the Vatican Press Office, said yesterday at the offices of the Foreign Press Club in Rome, as reported by Isabella Piro of Vatican Radio.

Some had speculated in recent days that Benedict might change his mind and not come back to the Vatican for many months, or perhaps even not at all, remaining instead at Castel Gandolfo. This news ends that speculation.

Father Lombardi also told the journalists that the only foreign trip Pope Francis will make this year will be to Brazil from July 23 to 28 for World Youth Day. It had been rumored that Francis might travel to Argentina in December in connection with his December 17 birthday. “I invite you not to expect other foreign trips during this year,” Father Lombardi said. (“Vi invito a non aspettarvi altri viaggi all’estero per quest’anno.”)

So Pope Francis will be traveling abroad only once during his first year as Pope. This seems to emphasize that his focus is on Rome and on the Vatican. He is acting and functioning less as a “supreme pontiff” of the global Church and more as the bishop of his diocese, Rome, and, in a sense, as seen in his daily homilies in the chapel of the Domus Santa Marta, as the parish priest of Vatican City.

But, Vatican Radio said, the Pope may very well make a trip later this year inside of Italy, to Assisi, perhaps on October 4, the Feast of St. Francis of Assisi — the saint whose name this Pope chose as his own.

Also, it is “not to be excluded,” Father Lombardi said, that Pope Francis will publish his first encyclical before the end of the year. Lombardi noted that Emeritus Pope Benedict had prepared a portion of the text for an encyclical on faith, for this “Year of Faith,” so that will likely be the theme of Francis’s first encyclical.

Scholars will have to parse out, some day, perhaps, the way Pope Francis uses the material already prepared by Benedict: how much Francis keeps, how much he changes, how much he sets aside.

A Place that Feels Like “Home”

The new Pope, Francis, 76, is still living in the Vatican’s only “guest house,” called the Domus Santa Marta (“House of St. Martha”), which is just at the bottom of the Vatican gardens, about a 12- or 15-minute walk away from where Benedict will come to live.

Francis seems very happy in the Domus.

“He likes it very much,” Father Lombardi said. (“Si trova molto bene”). “At the moment, he does not seem to want to change his residence, although this is not yet a definitive decision.” (“Al momento, non sembra voler cambiare alloggio, anche se non si tratta di una decisione definitiva.”)

So it seems that that Pope Francis, against all expectations, will remain for many more weeks — and perhaps permanently — in the Domus Santa Marta.

Some in Rome and Italy have written veiled criticisms of this decision. They have said it is “unbecoming” of the Pope to remain in a guest house and not to occupy his rooms in the Apostolic Palace.

One author even wrote that the people of Rome feel a bit “abandoned” since thay are not able to look up in the evening and to see the Pope’s light on in the papal palace above St. Peter’s Square. It remains dark.

In recent weeks, the link between Benedict and Francis has been Archbishop Georg Gaenswein, the personal secretary of Emeritus Pope Benedict and the Prefect of the Pontifical Household, who has been living at Castel Gandolfo and traveling daily into Rome and back. Over time, this “commute” has become quite taxing on the archbishop, as the Roman traffic into the city in the morning can make what would be a 25-minute drive with no traffic into a journey of more than an hour of stop-and-go driving.

So this decision of Emeritus Pope Benedict to return to the Vatican gardens will also bring Archbishop Gaenswein back to the Vatican, and relieve him of that onerous commute.

The “two Popes” — one emeritus, one newly elected – have only met on one occasion, on March 23, just 10 days after the election of Pope Francis.

They met at Castel Gandolfo, about 15 miles outside of Rome. (The photo below shows the moment of their first meeting.)

However, it has been announced that the two have spoken on more than one occasion over the telephone, and a source has advised that one such call went on for about two hours.

MUST BE ACCEPTED, FOLLOWED
"Peter was My first Pope and your first Pope, and as all others who followed him, they must be accepted. Be they weak or noble, be they with sanctity or unholiness, they must be accepted and followed....
"I ask you not to judge another. You may counsel, you may give your viewpoints, but no violence must be used. And I do not want schism. I do not want any interference from separated brethren in My Church. They must be brought back. Convert the unbeliever! You must remain united with Rome.
"The gates of hell shall not prevail against My Church, for a cleansing will come about and all that is rotten will fall! And My Church shall be restored to its former glory!" - Jesus, June 9, 1979

Our Lady of the Roses awesome Bayside Prophecies... http://www.tldm.org/../Bayside/
These prophecies came from Jesus, Mary, and the saints to Veronica Lueken at Bayside, NY, from 1968 to 1995.

A MESSAGE FOR YOUR VICAR
"My child and My children, do not cast aside this message, for it is most urgent. The War, the great War, will soon come upon you, taking many from the earth.
"I have given to you, My child, a message for your Vicar, and he must act upon it. Should he proceed by following the ways of man, using humanism and modernism to the destruction of souls and My Son's Church, I cannot then any longer hold back the heavy hand of punishment from mankind." - Our Lady, December 7, 1978

CHASTISEMENT SORELY DUE FOR DISOBEDIENCE TO VICAR
"Your world, My child and My children, has not progressed back to the Eternal Father. Should you receive now one chastisement so sorely due to you for your disobedience to Our Vicar? Do you as a nation, do you, all nations of the world, deserve the continuance of the struggle of Our Vicar for your salvation, or shall you, through your own actions, force the hand of the Eternal Father upon you by abandoning you to your sin? Your nation, the United States, and all nations of the earth--none shall escape the fires.” – Our Lady, May 30, 1981

UNITED
"We do not want division within the Church. That will solve nothing. You cannot separate yourself from the Holy Father in Rome!" - Our Lady, September 27, 1986

YOU ACT IN DISOBEDIENCE
"Mankind will go about with their heads in clouds, with itching ears, accepting false doctrines from false teachers. Novelty, experimentation, modernism, humanism! Because you sin and lose the light, you now fall prey to these creations of satan. Have you not been warned before from the Seat of Peter? Oh, no! You cast aside the direction of your Holy Father in the Eternal City of Rome! Evil men of the cross, you act in disobedience to your Vicar.” – Our Lady, February 10, 1977

They are in possession of great power; so wear your sacramentals, and protect your children and your households. Learn the use every day of holy water throughout your household. Insist even with obstructions, insist that your children always wear a sacramental. One day they will understand that they will repel the demons."
    On February 1, 1974, Our Lady said, "My children, know the value of these sacramentals. Guard your children well. You must awaken to the knowledge that you will not be protected without the sacramentals. Guard your children's souls. They must be surrounded with an aura of purity. Remove them if necessary from the sources of contamination, be it your schools or even false pastors."
