The atheistic Marxist Chinese Communist Party has long sought to destroy religion in China and, most especially, the Roman Catholic Church. In 2018, the Vatican became complicit in the CCP’s crimes against Chinese believers and their clergy, churches and Bible – all of which Pope Francis studiously ignored.  

The deal whereby this betrayal was institutionalized remains secret. But revulsion about its repercussions for persecuted Catholics in China, and other Christians, Falun Gong, Muslims and Buddhists rocked the Conclave that elected Pope Leo XIV instead of the odds-on favorite who negotiated the agreement, Cardinal Pietro Parolin. 

On May 24th, the new pope will preside over the International Day of Prayer for the Church in China. He can answer the prayers of millions there, and countless more worldwide, by repudiating the odious accord that betrayed them and religious freedom. Join them at RepealtheDeal.org.
