The Vatican reportedly rejected a request for President Joe Biden to attend an early morning Mass with Pope Francis.
A Vatican source told Catholic News Agency there is no meeting scheduled between Pope Francis and Biden.
The White House reportedly asked if Biden could attend Mass with the pope on Tuesday.
“The proposal was nixed by the Vatican after considering the impact that Biden receiving Holy Communion from the pope would have on the discussions the [United States Conference of Catholic Bishops] is planning to have during their meeting starting Wednesday, June 16,” CNA reported.
The U.S. bishops are scheduled to vote this week on creating a committee to draft a document about Eucharistic coherence.
Adhering to Eucharistic coherence means bishops should be aware public officials cannot receive Holy Communion and “act with deeds or words against the commandments, particularly when abortion, euthanasia, and other grave crimes against life and family are encouraged,” according to CNA.
The bishops’ vote will decide if Catholic politicians who support abortion should be barred from receiving Communion.
