Pope Francis has made the rare decision to dissolve the Sodalitium Christianae Vitae, an influential Catholic group from Peru, following a history of abuse allegations within its community. The group, which once boasted 20,000 members across South America and parts of the United States, has been under scrutiny for over a decade.
The Vatican has not officially commented on the dissolution, but the Sodalitium confirmed the news in a statement. The decision to suppress the Sodalitium comes after a 2023 Vatican investigation revealed instances of 'sadistic' abuses of power, authority, and spirituality within the organization.
