DoomsdaysCWNOT THE WORST POPE! Seriously!!!
From 2023: For this group of #TransWomen, the #Pope and his message of #inclusivity are a welcome change
By Nicole Winfield
TORVAIANICA, Italy (AP) — " #PopeFrancis’ recent gesture of welcome for #Transgender #Catholics has resonated strongly in this working class, seaside town south of Rome, where a community of #TransWomen has found help and hope through a remarkable relationship with the pontiff forged during the darkest times of the pandemic.
"Thanks to the local parish priest, these women now make monthly visits to Francis’ Wednesday general audiences, where they are given VIP seats. On any given day, they receive handouts of medicine, cash and shampoo. When COVID-19 struck, the Vatican bussed them into its health facility so they could be vaccinated ahead of most Italians.
"On Sunday, the women — many of whom are #LatinAmerican #migrants and work as #prostitutes — joined over 1,000 other poor and homeless people in the Vatican auditorium as Francis’ guests for lunch to mark the Catholic Church’s #WorldDayOfThePoor.
"The menu was evidence of Francis’ belief that those most on the margins must be treated with utmost dignity: cannelloni pasta filled with spinach and ricotta to start; meatballs in a tomato-basil sauce and cauliflower puree, and tiramisu with petit fours for dessert."

For this group of trans women, the pope and his message of inclusivity are a welcome change
Pope Francis is hosting a special lunch for more than 1,000 poor people to mark the Catholic Church's World Day of the Poor. Among his guests Sunday are a community of trans women from a seaside town south of Rome who have forged a remarkable friendship with the pontiff. They have welcomed in particular his recent message of inclusivity to transgender people. The Vatican recently said trans people can be baptized and serve as godparents and witnesses at weddings. For the trans community of Torvaianica, it's just the latest gesture of inclusion from a pope who has made reaching out to the LGBTQ+ community a hallmark of his papacy.
