POPE FRANCIS SEATED AT THE CHAIR WHILE MORE THAN 500 OTHERS DISTRIBUTE HOLY COMMUNION AT HIS INSTALLATION MASS.............

EWTN Host and Anchor, Raymond Arroyo, appearing as one of CNN's commentators for the Installation Mass of Pope Francis, has just said that by being seated during the distribution of Holy Communion presently being done by some 500 plus other Bishops and Priests, he is avoiding giving the Eucharist to anyone present who receives, whose personal or political views on Catholic teachings  they disagree with or support a different position than that of the Church.   Pope Francis as Cardinal Archbishop of Buenos Aires, Argentina; was known to staunchly support the practice of denying Holy Communion to political / governmental, or public officials, who part from official Catholic Church teachings on matters such as Abortion and Same Sex Marriage.  The Holy Father Francis I, is the first Jesuit Pope, a member of the Society of Jesus since 1969, and was a Novice Master, Superior of the Jesuitv Order in Argentina, and a Seminary Rector, before becoming Auxiliary Bishop of Buenos Aires, in 1992.  The Mass has just ended and as Pope Francis makes his way from the Presider's Chair, he walks to the statue of St. Mary and pauses to pray, then begins extending his Papal Blessing to the assembly, reverences the Altar, and joins the procession back into St. Peter's Basilica.  Next he is expected to briefly meet and greet World Leaders from 132 countries, who are in attendance.  CNN correspondent reports the Installation was celebrated in less time than expected it would take, coming in at approximately ninety minutes after the initial ceremonies were completed.  So at 3:30 a.m. Pacific, 6:30 a.m. Eastern. and 11:30 a.m. Roman Time, the 266th Successor of St. Peter, Pope Francis, has been fully installed.  More To Come throughout the day on the Installation of our New Holy Father.............tdp
