Pope Pius XII Deleted All References To Our Lady As “Co-Redemptrix”
Fr. Charles Balić was a Franciscan theologian and a consultor to the Holy Office under Pope Pius XII. He was also President of the International Marian Academy. Later on he was appointed (by the Vatican II “Church”) to be a theological expert at Vatican II. According to Yves Congar (who was a significant figure at Vatican II), “Balić told us that [Pope] Pius XII had deleted the word Co-Redemptrix in all the documents bearing this title and had replaced it by ‘Socia Christi Redemptoris’ (Associate of Christ the Redeemer).” (Yves Congar, My Journal Of The Council, Liturgical Press, 2012, p. 72)
Pius XII never used the term “Co-Redemptrix” as pope. He probably recognized that the term is indeed inaccurate and problematic, and that’s why he deleted it from drafts. For a full treatment of this matter, see our video called: Is Mary The “Co-Redemptrix”? – A Catholic Analysis.
