👉🏿I’m deeply grateful to all the #MEP who are speaking in support of the people of Nicaragua & condemning the persecution of the Catholic Church, and particularly of Bishop Rolando Alvarez, priests & seminarians and the more of 200 political prisoners 🙏 https://t.co/ONyKmVG6Zv

The Ortega Murillo regime in #Nicaragua could ban the diocesan celebrations of St. Jerome in Masaya, as it continues to repress the Church and anything they perceive as a threat.

The bishop is under "house arrest," for made up charges such as "crimes against spirituality." https://t.co/Ss7nL4B6jp
