Real deficiencies were noted in management and procedures, seriously prejudicing team-spirit and staff morale,\u201d a press release <a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/file\/d\/1mEbKAEDYDmJrAWvubk-_RC4lhb2H5O3x\/view\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">noted<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Caritas Internationalis was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.catholicnewsagency.com\/news\/252881\/pope-francis-removes-caritas-internationalis-leaders-appoints-temporary-administrator\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">established<\/a> in 1951 and is a coalition of 162 charitable groups in 200 nations. Its annual statement reportedly showed that it brought in around 5.1 million euros in 2020 and spent around 4.4 million euros.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cThis measure has no impact on the functioning of member organizations and the services of charity and solidarity they provide around the world; on the contrary, it will serve to strengthen such service,\u201d the press release stressed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The secretary general of Caritas Internationalis, Aloysius John, was removed from his position. The leadership and governance group was also pushed out. Those who serve in governing roles for the charity are elected every four years, and in 2019, John won in a contested vote.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Former and current workers were welcomed to take part in the review. A former worker with Caritas worked with the external review team and said that he reported bullying and situations of incompetence while working for John, according to the Associated Press.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Pier Francesco Pinelli has been appointed as Temporary Administrator of Caritas Internationalis, according to the release. Pinelli worked on the external review and also participated in a 2021 review of the Vatican\u2019s development office, which led to Cardinal Michael Czerny being placed as prefect.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cIn recent years we have seen the needs of the many whom Caritas serves increase markedly, and it is imperative that Caritas Internationalis be well prepared to meet these challenges,\u201d Cardinal Michael Czerny said in the release.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cPope Francis invites us to consider \u2018the mission that Caritas is called to carry out in the Church \u2026 Charity is not a barren service nor a simple offering to be made in order to ease our conscience. What we must never forget is that charity has its origin and its essence in God himself (cf. 1 Jn 4:8); charity is God our Father\u2019s embrace of every person, particularly of the least and the suffering, those who occupy a preferential place in his heart\u2019 (27 May 2019). These words inspire everyone involved in CI to ensure the organization proves equal to its mission,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pope Francis fired some of the leadership of the Vatican\u2019s international charitable organization Caritas Internationalis on Tuesday following the findings of an external review.
