You are wonderful Tim to be so diligent. Thank You for sharing this history with us. Hopefully observing this feast day will once again be observed. Perhaps thinking of St Ignatius and praying will bring help bring back some of the intelligence he bestowed, that has obviously been lost with this church leadership. Lets hope a little of St Ignatius compassion and wisdom will rub off to Guam's Catholic church leaders.
