RMS Stays The Same

In the past, the jungle had expressed what they wanted to see come from the Yona property.  They wanted the RMS to shut down.  Some wanted it converted back into a hotel and turn it into a profitable business for the Church.  However, the good news is that the RMS will continue to operate as it always has been.  According to The Guamanian Magazine:
Still, the archbishop will approach the seminary he now controls with an open mind. “I have every intention that the seminary will continue. The action that I have taken is mainly to clarify the ownership of the property, and not so much over the seminary activity. So there’s a difference,” Byrnes explained. 
“The seminary has produced, from what I understand, good fruit, good priests, not only for Guam but other diocese in the Oceana region. And so it’s another place I need to hear from, to see for myself. But I have at this point every intention to continue its service, and I certainly want to continue supporting the institute. It can be a tremendous source of grace for the Archdiocese. I have plenty of experience in the seminary, and I know the good it can do. I’ll know more [about the seminary] and I have no intention of changing its activity at this point.”
The RMS will continue its operation as it always has been even without a Board of Directors and Board of Guarantors.  There will be no changes in its activities.  As for the Neocatechumenal Way, this is what The Guamanian Magazine reported:
He is well aware of the deep rift between the traditionalists and the followers of the NCW, but again he is not ready to take any sides. “I can tell you this, I know the NCW. It’s highly respected, and it’s a movement within the Church, a movement that is meant to recharge, to refocus the faithful on important charisms of the Church. So I would hope that the priests that are formed in that seminary would take the growth that they receive and donate it to the parish.”
Byrnes said there are so many different spiritualities, and there should be a place where there are a variety of spiritualities. “You know I’m not part of the Neocatechumenal Way, but they’re Catholics. They’re the Neocatechumenal way, but theirs is not the only way. There’s definitely room for them on the island. But we’re Catholics, we’re not becoming something else. I will celebrate the mass the way the mass is celebrated.”
 Archbishop Byrnes was incorrect when he said that the NCW is a movement.  It is an itinerary of Christian formation. Nevertheless, he is aware that there are many different charisms in the Church.  The Charismatic Renewal is one of those charisms.  Archbishop Byrnes was never a member of the NCW, but he was a member of the Charismatic Renewal.  It was that movement within the Catholic Church that brought him closer to Christ.

  1. CCOG: bunch of elderly folks fooled in their old age by enchanting promises at JungleWatch that they were the only ones who could renew the church. Not only on Guam but also at Vatican! Is this not sad if not ridiculous? You need a whole lot of lunacy to believe that!

    I would like to cry when I think of the poorly prepared senators at the Guam Legislature and our gullible Governor Calvo who were all misled to believe these misguided people to create a very, very dangerous piece of bill that will haunt Guam Catholics for the coming decades!

    It is a truly sad beginning for 2017.

    2. No so fast, please! Catholic people do not tolerate deliberate destruction of their faith. We stand with Jesus! People who misled the senate and the governor are losing their power and position big time! Just look around!

      Senator Frank Blas Jr. the author of the pedophile bill was sent home from the senate by voters. He has no place in the legislature! Other senators were sent back home as well. They regret they ever listened to Rohr and his thugs. Frank Augon shot himself in the leg. He won't even be a governor because of what he did to the Catholic church.

      Slowly, little-by-little the truth is coming out. The bill will be annulled because it violates the constitution. Archbishop Byrnes exactly knows what is at stake. It is much more than his reputation and legacy. The salvation of those souls is in danger who put their trust in our beloved Pope Francis! Archbishop Byrnes will stand by us because he also stands by Pope Francis!

      The conspirators will need to abandon their maniacal ways of going after and torture the good Catholic folks of Jesus Christ for no particular reason.

  2. Pope Francis calls oversimplified traditionalism a form of Pelagian heresy. This heresy was prevalent in the time of St. Augustine in the 4th-5th centuries. St. Augustine had to defend the Catholic faith against them and had to show point by point their heresy. Pelagianism is revived in our time by traditionalist groups. Let me quote Pope Francis:

    "The Pelagian solution. This basically appears as a form of restorationism. In dealing with the Church’s problems, a purely disciplinary solution is sought, through the restoration of outdated manners and forms which, even on the cultural level, are no longer meaningful. It seeks to “recover” the lost past."

    1. CCOG calls itself a traditionalist group. I wonder if they are in Pelagian heresy? They want to restore the Latin mass in the Friary as was before Vatican II. Is this not restorationism? Ignoring Vatican II is already foolish, especially if it comes from heretical views of outdated manners and forms. Without respecting and honoring what happened at Vatican II, no progress is possible in the church.

      Delete
    2. Vatican 2 was a scam. I don't say everything was heretical, but some famous heresies from the old times were resuscitated. This is a major trouble of the post conciliar faith of Catholics! I don't say everyone was a heretic at Vatican 2, but the some heretical theologians were free to parade their heretical views as church teaching! It was disgusting. It is unforgivable!

      Pope Francis has to undo the damages of Vatican 2. He must give more prominence to genuinely Catholic forms of the Holy mass like the Latin mass! Little-by-little, the Latin mass will have to be restored. There won't be peace on Guam until all parishes offer the traditional Latin way of the Sunday service for our faithful to protect them from the temptation coming from the NCW!

      "through the restoration of outdated manners and forms which, even on the cultural level, are no longer meaningful. It seeks to “recover” the lost past."

      Isn't this precisely the argument that the NCW use to justify its practices? That the "early church" did things a certain way, that the Church adopted unnecessary "pagan accretions" and that the NCW is simply recovering the "lost past"?

      When we tell to AB Byrnes about this, we'll know at once if he is a true bishop or just someone looking for a red hat. He comes from off island to Guam to be a leader. Is this right?

      You had three years to bring it to the attention of the Pope and still nothing. When Tim Rohr complained to Archbishop Hon about how we celebrate, Hon said the NCW is doing just fine. During the time Archbishop Hon was the Apostolic Administrator, he did nothing about it. The reason being is we are not violating the liturgy.

    7. Anon, there is no more reverent way to take the Eucharist than at the communities. We adore the Body of Christ resting in our palm as He rested on the cross. Our hands form a resemblance of the holy cross and right in the middle is the Body of our Savior. It is beautiful and respectful! We pray to Him and sing to Him before we consume. Please, come to our Eucharist one time to experience the deep reverence of the Catholic liturgy among us. I promise, you'll never forget its spiritual beauty!

    9. Dear Anon at 1:28 pm, Thomas the apostle was able to touch the wounds on the side of our Lord after His resurrection and he believed. "My Lord and my God", he said. Thomas came to epitomize Christian faith. Faith begins with doubt that is overcome by a touch of the transcendent, a touch of the divine, a touch of Jesus Christ!

      I cannot touch the wounds of Jesus in a piece of bread, even though I know that the Presence of Jesus Christ is in that piece of bread and this Presence is real! There is a slight difference between Jesus the person and His Presence in the Eucharist. Both of them is real, but in a different way. This is no heresy bro, it is the reality of our faith. I can touch Jesus through faith! I hope that you are not so close minded that you don't get the truth.

I cannot feel His bodily hurts and injuries as St. Thomas did, but I feel my own wounds that I caused myself by sin! I know the Lord is Present because it is the teaching of the church. But I would be lying if I would say I can fully comprehend this mystery. This is just a mystery of a magnificent order!

      When I consume the Eucharist, which is the Body of Christ you know, my body still processes it as bread and not as protein. I digest Jesus by embracing His body with mine. He is inside me giving me energy, both bodily and spiritual! The bodily energy is coming as calories that I digested. The spiritual energy is coming as being unified by Christ. Communion! What a magnificent word. What a magnificent reality: Jesus in me.

    Archbishop Byrnes, you should not look "at both sides" to decide what is the best and diplomatic way to deal with this division, mistrust, and loss of respect of the Church leaders and of some in the clergy? There is only one side and that is the side of good vs.evil. Do not discuss this matter with everyone under the sun to see the best way to "can we all just get along?" You must remove the NCW from all the parishes and not allow them to operate within the borders of our Archdiocese. "They are a Jewish-Protestant sect with a Catholic decoration." Do not be fooled. I pray for your enlightenment and success. Do not let us down.

    2. Making decision for an Archbishop behind his back, without even asking him is unheard of in the Catholic Church! CCOG wants to take out decision making from the hand of the rightful authority who cannot be other than the local bishop! What does this mean? What Rohr is proposing is nothing else but self governance! He wants the laity to govern the local church. This is a very dangerous proposal! Only the bishop has the authority to govern the diocese and correct the errors of the clergy and the faithful. This authority cannot be taken away!

      The attack of Junglewatch on Pope Francis reveals an international coordination of activism. The command post of CCOG is somewhere in the mainland giving marching order and slogans to the Sunday picketers. Rohr works hard to have his own local command but he is constantly overridden by his own comrades on the mainland. This visibly irks him a lot. The goal is not only to question the authority of the bishops but also of the Pope sitting in Rome!

      The code words they are using are about "keeping the bishops accountable", "requesting action from the Pope", "you cannot trust Vatican", etc. are calling for rebellion against all Catholic authorities in order to establish self governing bodies that will take over parish matters and finances alike! This goals are popularized by collaborating liberal media.

      Why would self governance by laity be a grave mistake in the Catholic Church? Because it discards the apostolic succession of rule. Our church was established by our Lord on a rock named Cefas or Peter! This is a distinguished feature of Christianity that the leading apostle is the Rock! There is no self governance to depose and oust church leaders. The apostolic succession guarantees the continuity of faith.

      CCC 1558 states: "Episcopal consecration confers, together with the office of sanctifying, also the offices of teaching and ruling. . . . In fact . . . by the imposition of hands and through the words of the consecration, the grace of the Holy Spirit is given, and a sacred character is impressed in such wise that bishops, in an eminent and visible manner, take the place of Christ himself, teacher, shepherd, and priest, and act as his representative (in Eius persona agant)." "By virtue, therefore, of the Holy Spirit who has been given to them, bishops have been constituted true and authentic teachers of the faith and have been made pontiffs and pastors."

Even though there is no permission given to the way the NCW celebrates "Mass", they hove no intention of conforming to the instructions of the liturgical books of the Roman Rite, but only to what Kiko tells them to do.

      In this way the NCW cuts itself off from the very heart of communion in the Church of Christ.

    9. since it's so clear to you, maybe you should enlighten pope Francis, Cardinal mueller, filoni, the 108 bishops and cardinals that have a redemptoris mater seminary in their diocese, the hundreds of bishops that have communities in their dioceses, the hundreds of thousands of pastors that have communities in their parishes. Since it's so clear to you that the ncw is wrong or whatever you should take it upon yourself to clarify their error to them. Not just stating your parrot-like opinion on a blog. Go to the church hierarchy...oh wait! You don't believe that the Holy Spirit works through the church hierarchy, right? You don't believe that the Holy Spirit acted in Vatican 2, or in anything other than the Latin Mass. so if you don't believe that the Holy Spirit is in the Church (i.e. Hierarchy and Vatican 2) why are you catholic?

      The NCW's Eucharist has been approved by the catholic church. THe eucharist has evolved and changed over the centuries, but it's core has always remained. The church has carefully examined the "NCW" Eucharist and approved it.
      What I find interesting is that many priests actually create and invent their own Eucharist or garnish it with weird things as I've seen in so many different countries, yet they aren't under scrutiny.
      I think this is more of a problem of power than a problem of spirituality. In my experience most people who have a true spiritual life of prayer find the NCW to be refreshing. Refreshing in that it looks for authenticity in spiritual life not just fulfilling rites because we have to.
      This also has a negative aspect, because for those who do not follow what the NCW teaches as authentic the NCW can be threatenig. Which is really not the NCW's teachings it's the Catholic Church's which is why all the catechetical books have been approved by the catholic church. In fact they have been personally read by Ratzinger (Benedict XVI).
      The Catholic Church does not force it's teachings upon people, which is why it is so diverse. However the NCW presents the Catholic Teachings to the fullest, and does not soften them. The reason is because it is a way for adult christian formation. So they will not lie to you. Many people who already have their own religion (not Catholic even though they are titled catholics) are threatened when they are told that they are not Christian, and immediately will look at the defects of those in the NCW to attack it and justify themselves. (ignorance is bliss) This is why the NCW has enemies. Coincidentally (not) most of those enemies have no spiritual lives. This is why Christianity starts with humility. You have to be humble to listen to anything that goes against your character.

Jesus prayed for the wicked, forgive them Father, they do no know what they are doing.

Read the statutes. (The approved Statutes of 2008 do NOT give permission for the alterations)Watch videos of john paul 2 celebrating the ncw liturgy.(He celebrated much like any visiting priest - without much say. Celebrate he did,so as not to deny the people Jesus - He may have liked their passion for the Mass, but he did not like their Mass. You can say he was there to see first hand what he had to correct.) read what Benedict XVII has written about the liturgy (Read his book "Spirit of the Liturgy" where he references not kneeling is a sign of the diabolical)and the way (Refer to 2005 where the NCW was told to change by B16 through Arinze.) Read what pope Francis has said.(Again a pat on the back for the NCW's evangelization, love of scripture, etc. does not include a pat on the back for all the unapproved alterations in the NCW Mass.)Come on!

      I have said this so many times. If you think that we are doing the Eucharist incorrectly, complain to the Vatican about it. We have had Archbishop Hon, Archbishop Krebs, and Father Novak visit our island and not one of them addressed the way the NCW celebrates the Eucharist. In fact in 2015, Archbishop Hon told Tim Rohr that the NCW is doing fine , after he complained about the Way we celebrate the Eucharist. But he rejected Hon's answer. You do not have the authority to tell the NCW to change.

    2. You know why these people keep bringing up the liturgy?
      It is a problem if childhood education. They are used to having to tell their children the same thing over and over and their kids don't obey. The kids do not obey their parents because their parents are disobedient to the authority over them as well.
      Do you want to know why Cardinal mueller pope Francis pope Benedict pope john paul etc etc etc do not speak about the liturgy? Because the ncw has already obeyed them and there is nothing wrong with their liturgy.

      Please do not misquote Ratzinger on kneeling by taking the quote out of context. I've read the book too and am not tricked by your half quotes.

    Ratzinger's quotes in his book show his dislike of not kneeling, to say differently is to misquote him (not just me). I have a deep respect for Saint John Paul II, I did not present him as an idiot (you did). I did my research; so how many times did Saint John Paul the great celebrate your ncw Mass? You make it sound like he did it many times - that is simply not true - 2X. Please also note, NEVER did he celebrate the ncw Mass for the hundreds that would show up in Rome...NEVER - even though he commended the ncw for many other things. Also note that when Carman died, she NEVER was permitted a ncw funeral - even though she was greatly praised for her enthusiasm for evangelization. Lying is indeed from Satan - and so is deception.
