CWN Editor's Note: Archbishop Edgar Peña Parra, who coordinates the internal affairs of the Roman Curia, traveled to the Dominican Republic to crown the image of Our Lady of Altagracia and to offer a golden rose on behalf of Pope Francis.
The prelate, who works as Substitute (Sostituto) of the Secretariat of State, denounced the “ideological colonization” that is seeking to transform Latin American culture.
