TODAY'S PACIFIC DAILY NEWS


Church disclosure urged

It used to be taboo for Guam parishioners to ask Catholic Church leadership to be open about the handling of church funds, but under the new pope, it's what parishioners expect, Sinajana Mayor Robert Hofmann said yesterday.
A group calling itself Concerned Catholics of Guam last week published a notice in the Pacific Daily News, calling on the Archdiocese of Agana to publish audited financial statements annually on the Internet, like other Catholic churches in the country have done.

  1. I guess the mayors are patt of Concerned Catholics. It is now clear that Tim Rohr is correct: his blog merely reflects the thousands of disenchanted Guam catholics. It's about time.

  2. "È meglio cedere o rinunciare, essere disposti a portare su di sé la prova di un’ingiustizia, piuttosto che lacerare la tunica" Papa Francesco.
