Actually, some papal attention to Nicaragua could be a good thing, but probably not for the objectives Chinchilla has. First Lady Rosario Murillo is institutionalizing a totalitarian brand of Christianity that the Church might want to weigh in on.

Of course, the abortion thing is the usual hypocrisy. My understanding is that Ticas with means can and do get medical abortions fairly easily by going to private clinics, leaving the abortion ban to apply to only poor women.
