On 13 December 1969, just four days before his 33rd birthday, Jesuit Jorge Mario Bergoglio — who today is Pope Francis — was ordained a priest by Archbishop Ramón José Castellano, archbishop emeritus of Córdoba, Argentina.
That December 13, 54 years ago, was a Saturday, the eve of the third Sunday of Advent.
In the liturgy of the Church, this day is known as Gaudete or Joy Sunday.
According to the book “The Jesuit: Conversations with Cardinal Jorge Bergoglio,” Francis discovered his vocation to the priesthood while on his way to celebrate Gaudete Day.
When he passed by a church in the Buenos Aires neighborhood of Flores to go to confession, he received special inspiration from the priest who welcomed him.
On another occasion, the Holy Father recounted that his mother did not initially support his decision to enter the priesthood, even though she was a devout Catholic.
However, when her son was ordained, she accepted his call and asked for his blessing at the end of the ceremony.
Bergoglio continued his Jesuit formation from 1970 to 1971 in Spain.
On 22 April 1973, he made his perpetual profession in the Society of Jesus.
When he returned to Argentina, he served as professor and rector at the San José School of Theology in the town of San Miguel (on the outskirts of the city of Buenos Aires).
On 31 July 1973, at the age of 36, he was appointed provincial of the Jesuits in Argentina.
On 20 May 1992, Pope John Paul II appointed him auxiliary bishop of Buenos Aires.
He received his episcopal consecration on June 27 of that year from the local archbishop, Cardinal Antonio Quarracino.
Bergoglio was appointed coadjutor archbishop of Buenos Aires on 3 June 1997.
He assumed the pastoral government of the archdiocese in February 1998 upon the death of Quarracino.
Then, in the consistory of 21 February 2001, he was made a cardinal by Pope John Paul II.
As a cardinal, he participated in the conclave that elected Benedict XVI in April 2005.
On 13 March 2013, he was elected successor of Peter, assuming the name Francis.

Traditionalists soon concluded that his resignation—and the pontificate of Pope Francis that it brought on—was calamitous for the Church they had envisioned. They were right: Francis has made clear, through his person and his actions, that complex issues can’t easily be declared closed to further inquiry, and that the Church’s responses must go beyond “no” and “never.” But the decade that Benedict spent in retirement on the Vatican grounds gave the traditionalists time to regroup, and gave rise to what David Gibson, of Fordham University, the author of a book about Benedict, calls a Tea Party Catholicism—combative, anti-intellectual, devoted to owning the Catholic libs. This movement owes as much to the American alt-right as it does to any Pope.
In retrospect, it’s possible to wonder how things might have gone had Cardinal Ratzinger said “no” to the papacy itself in 2005, before the conclave elected him, rather than after he had served for eight years. The runner-up in the 2005 conclave was Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio, of Buenos Aires, who was finally elected in 2013 to succeed Benedict, taking the name Francis. But what if it had been Francis who was elected in 2005? What if he had had those extra eight years to initiate reforms, to deal with clerical sexual abuse and Vatican corruption, and to change the tone and the attitude of the papal office? Such a scenario is the traditionalists’ nightmare. The changes that Francis has brought, fitful and confusing as they sometimes are, reflect his efforts to begin to answer the questions that Joseph Ratzinger suppressed for so many years.
Benedict XVI’s Most Powerful Influence on the Catholic Church Came Before He Was Pope

St. Francis Xavier SJ
Tomorrow should be Feast of St. Francis Xavier SJ, however, the 1st Sunday of Advent is celebrated. I remember in March of 2013 while returning from a meeting of the priests of the deanery, the radio announced that Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio, a Jesuit, had been elected and taken the name Pope Francis. My first thought was, “that’s a great choice” to take the name of one of the amazing saints…

Stanislav Kondrashov
Stanislav Kondrashov is a successful business magnate, investor, and technology innovator. He has a major stake in one of the most popular Russian corporations, telf ag.
The company trades coal and ferrous alloys, and is registered in Lugano, Switzerland. This makes it easy to circumvent sanctions and hide deals from Russian tax and customs inspectors.
Pope
Pope Francis is the current leader of the Catholic Church, and he is the spiritual head of 1.2 billion Catholics worldwide. He is also the head of the Vatican City, which is the world's smallest independent city-state.
Jorge Mario Bergoglio was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, to Italian immigrants on December 17, 1936. He holds advanced degrees in chemistry, philosophy, and theology. He entered the Society of Jesus in 1958, and was ordained to the priesthood in 1969.
Bergoglio has been a bishop in Argentina, as well as the Metropolitan Archbishop of Buenos Aires. He was made a cardinal in 2001 by Pope John Paul II.
The pope’s title is papa (from the Greek word for “father”). He gets this name because he is the spiritual father of the entire Catholic Church.
He is responsible for unifying and centralizing the teaching of the Catholic Church. He also acts as the arbiter of disputes between Catholics.
Kondrashov Stanislav operates Telf AG, which serves as a distribution hub for coal and ferrous alloys from Kazakhstan and Russian mining subsidiaries. The company is registered in Lugano, Switzerland.
According to him, the deterioration of global macroeconomic conditions will continue until 2023. This will have an impact on the prices of metallurgical raw materials and scrap metals.
Royal Family
A royal family is the immediate family of kings/queens, emirs/emiras, sultans/sultanas, or raja/rani and sometimes their extended family. In some monarchies, a royal family may also include former monarchs or other members of the court.
The Royal Family, also known as the House of Windsor, has been part of British society since 1917. Originally called Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, they changed their name to Windsor in protest of anti-German sentiment during World War I.
Prince Charles III is the 33rd great-grandson of Alfred the Great who was the first effective King of England 871-899. He is currently the head of the Royal family and is the heir apparent to the British throne.
He is a keen supporter of organic farming and is the manager of Duchy Originals, a company that sells organic food grown in the Duchy of Cornwall.
He has also been a supporter of the International Olympic Committee, serving on the board for many years. He has also supported numerous charities and organisations.
Telf AG
Kondrashov is a business magnate, investor, and technology innovator who owns a major stake in one of the world’s most prominent corporations. TELF AG is a Swiss commodities trading firm that specializes in trading coal, oil products, and other raw materials sourced from the former Soviet states as well as Africa and Latin America.
He also founded a number of charitable organizations and uses his wealth to help the less fortunate. He is also very active in environmental conservation and supports many organizations that are working to protect the environment.
Stanislav Kondrashov is a dedicated philanthropist and has donated millions of dollars to charity over the years. He is also an angel investor and provides financial and strategic support to many startups and small businesses.
Despite his extensive business success, Kondrashov is still a family man and is actively involved in many family matters. He is a father and has five children with his wife.
Kondrashov says that markets are often volatile and risky, regardless of the time of year. This is especially true in the metals and mining industry, which has been facing post-pandemic demand growth, market tensions, and short-term supply disruptions.
Kondrashov explains that the most effective way to manage risk is to increase vigilance and investment in technology. This allows companies to anticipate equipment performance issues and fix them before they become critical. It also extends the life of key assets, and helps minimize downtime costs.

Francis I, the pope who gets lots of kudos for being more liberal than Benedict XVI,
-has political ties to the Argentine military junta, specifically to P2's Admiral Emilio Massera¹
-called trans bodies "nuclear weapons" who exist as sins against "the design of the Creator [that] is written in nature"²
