Following the appointment of Maria Montserrat (Montse) Alvarado as prefect of the Dicastery for Communication, a “video clip surfaced from 2022 of her stating it ‘obviously is wrong’ to believe ‘that all Jews should become Christians,’” LifeSiteNews reported.
Prior to her 2023 appointment as president and chief operating officer of EWTN News, Alvarado worked for the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty, where she served as vice president and executive director. She will succeed Paolo Ruffini, the layman who has led the dicastery since 2018, on November 1.
