Previously it was noted on this blog that Fr. Gofigan had been removed from his post as pastor of Santa Barbara parish without an explanation. However, we have learned from parishioners that a reason was in fact provided and it was announced at every Mass on July 21.
The reason announced was that Fr. Gofigan "had resigned". Of course, Fr. Gofigan DID NOT resign, which is why he is legally challenging his removal. So, if this was in fact what was announced, then the person responsible for requiring the announcement has perpetrated a slanderous lie on top of everything else.
And apparently there is more going on between the chancery and Santa Barbara parish, and this time it involves the targeting of a young man. More later. But in the meanwhile, someone please recommend to the Archbishop that he acquire some decent counsel.
