On July 6, Eugenio Salazar Mora, the bishop of Tilarán-Liberia in Costa Rica, bowed down to greet the head of the Missionaries of Charity, who had been exiled from Nicaragua by President Daniel Ortega’s administration.

At a parish in the town of Caas, the sisters of the order established by St. Teresa of Calcutta were welcomed to Costa Rica.

The bishop is seen in a video greeting the nuns one by one and giving them each a kiss on the episcopal ring on Facebook.

Salazar approached the superior and bent over, kissing the sister’s hand as he did so.

The act of deference that [the bishop] offers toward the mother province is a sign of being at her disposal and of service to this community, according to the Diocese of Tilarán-Liberia.

We have received Christ by receiving you.

The nuns “stay mute because they are religious, because they are spiritual in not seeking notoriety, not becoming engaged in debates, and they offer their anguish for the Costa Rican people,” the bishop stated in another video that was broadcast on July 7.

“They have faced challenges, worried about their personal safety because they come from a variety of nations, and some of them are older.

Before they entered Costa Rican territory, they were really concerned, the priest said.

The bishop stated, “If it had been up to them, they would have remained in Nicaragua; they love Nicaragua and the Nicaraguan people, especially those who are in need.”

He emphasized, “I don’t see any wrong with them, they’re just women, brides of Jesus Christ, consecrated religious, who solely aspire to help the needy, to do many things that many others don’t do.

However, that is how Christians live; in addition, the aspect of martyrdom is a component of Christian theology. Because it would not belong to Christ otherwise, the Church of Jesus Christ is the persecuted Church, Salazar added.

“They just desire one privilege: to love and serve the poor, the most needy,” he remarked, emulating St. Teresa of Calcutta.

The prelate emphasized that “in receiving you, we have received Jesus Christ” before asking for prayers for Nicaragua.

You are a strong, simple woman. You may rely on us; we are here to help.

On July 6, the 15-year-old Ortega administration evicted 18 Missionaries of Charity from the nation of Central America.

The National Assembly of Nicaragua approved the dissolution of the Missionaries of Charity and another 100 NGOs on June 29 on a “urgent” basis and without any discussion, according to the EFE news agency.

The Sandinista National Liberation Front, headed by Ortega, controls the National Assembly, Nicaragua’s legislative assembly.

Eight Indians, two Mexicans, two Filipinos, two Guatemalans, two Nicaraguans, one Spaniard, one Ecuadorian, and one Vietnamese are among the 18 sisters.

Salazar proclaimed that “love will overcome, love will triumph” towards the closing of his speech.

The final word belongs to God, not to man. Christians in Nicaragua, move forward! Jesus is still the King!

The former foreign minister shared joyful pictures of herself at an event hosted by the Mineral Resources mining services company on Instagram. According to reports, Ms. Bishop, 65, and her longtime lover David Panton, 61, broke up over dinner on July 1 at a restaurant in Sydney’s central business area. She was all smiles and seemed carefree in the photos shared on Monday night after speaking at a Mineral Resources professional development session. She captioned the photographs, saying, “Addressing employee grads at Mineral Resources’ professional development program, sharing my career story, the sliding-door moments plus a few tips!” Since late June, when she shared images of herself and Mr. Panton dining with Prince Charles in London, Ms. Bishop had not posted anything on Instagram. Ms. Bishop was spotted on Tuesday evening when she arrived in Canberra for the annual John Gee Memorial Lecture at the Australian National University (ANU). A cheerful Ms. Bishop was pictured posing with Rafael Mariano Grossi, director-general of the International Atomic Energy Agency. Ms. Bishop, who has been the university chancellor for two and a half years, gave the opening remarks for the event while elegantly attired in a black flowery top, pants, and heels in front of a packed crowd. At the event, which was held in memory of the late diplomat Dr. John Gee, Argentinian Mr. Grossi served as the main speaker. Since her breakup four nights prior, Ms. Bishop had not been seen in public until that moment. She made her first public appearance with Mr. Panton in 2014. Since then, the two have been seen together at a variety of occasions, including Karl Stefanovic and Jasmine Yarbrough’s wedding in 2018. When Mr. Panton declared that the relationship had reached its end on July 1, the couple went out to supper, according to the Sydney Morning Herald. For the foreseeable future, I’m going to concentrate on living in Manly and Melbourne, Mr. Panton told the outlet. “I wish Julie continued success in her outstanding work,”In photos taken less than two weeks after divorcing from her boyfriend of eight years, Julie Bishop smiled with a group of young miners.
