My fellow citizens, today we have important news for the protectorate and for the world,

Father Charles Edward Boone, the soon to be anointed archbishop the Archdiocese of North-Rosmana has met with Supreme Patriarch, his holiness Oleg Ramizitch Vadimonescu, and they have agreed to strengthen their ecumenical ties through a series of joined prayers, and they have also sent a joint letter to the Holy See, which requests full communion between the Raskanen Orthodox Church, as well as a request to anoint as a arch-bishop, since he is the De Facto spiritual father of North Rosmana.

The apostates in Rosmascant have already published a decree condemning this, but thanks to the intervention of Father Charles Edward Boone they were reminded that the Bishop of Rosmascant has no jurisdiction over the appointment or ordination of bishops, that this authority lies with the Holy Father in Rome, and nobody else, despite the many fallacies, fabrications and prevarications, which claim that Father Boone is a apostate, a heretic and a schismatic.

The fact of the mater is that the Archdiocese of North Rosmana doesn't fall under the jurisdiction of the bishop of Rosmascant anymore, meaning that bishop Kian Geralds has no say in the matters of its churches, its monasteries, or any of its religious orders, institutions or charities, and that Father Boone has has the moral obligation to tend to his flock as a simple pastor, until he is validly ordained as a bishop by the successor of St. Peter. (His Holiness Francis I).

Now, we can rejoice in the knowledge that Father Boone is a pious, patient man, he will wait for the word of the Holy Father, he does not need strong terms to defend his ego, opulent estates to dwell in, or fancy titles to do the work of God, he is content to serve as a simple Sheppard, over his modest flock, a true man of God, a champion of the oppressed, and a beacon of salvation, in an ocean of vice and sin, created by the monstrous blasphemy called communism.

We also fear that the good bishop was influenced by the shrewd politicians in South Rosmana, with a campaign of misinformation and fake news in order to reassert their authority over the spiritual life the average citizen in North Rosmana, as part of a media campaign to annex the fledgling state as a province, or worse, invade it, and annex it as a colony, with all the atrocities associated with such terminology, reminding us that we can not lower our guard, even for a moment.

God stands on the side of the righteous, and what could b more righteous than a war against the blasphemous monstrosity called communism, a vile, demonic ideology claimed the lives of millions of innocent people, which is why it was condemned by Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith, and His Holiness Pope Pius XII in the encyclicals Quadragesimo anno(1931) and Divini Redemptoris (1937), which led to the excommunication of dozens of heretics.

This naive notion that these monstersous thugs can be reasoned with is inherently absurd, yes their followers can be swayed, because they tend to be naive idealists, who believe they can actually improve the human condition by following the word of these o called ''leaders'', who 'were anything but humane, enlightened or altruistic in their intentions, in fact, most can still be found on the list of the worst mass murderers and the most vile, sadistic and outright evil tyrants in human history, responsible for at least 3 large scale genocides.

But the bishop of Rosmascant has done NOTHING to condemn the so called "Revolutionary Pact'', he has not confirmed the excommunication any of its leaders, or its members, and he has not renounced their ideology, despite the fact that they openly glorify the doctrines totalitarian Communism, and its leaders, but we have gratefully received a letter from Father Boone, in which has stated that the membership of ANY communist part results in an automatic excommunication, not his authority, but by the authority of the Holy See and God.

The letter was sent to the Vatican this very morning, baring the signature of Father Boone and the official seal of is holiness Oleg Ramizitch Vadimonescu, so now we can only pray and hope, that the successor of St. Peter(His Holiness Francis I) will see the wisdom of these measures, and the validity of their most righteous cause.

God bless you, and God bless Raskana!
