The NCW communities in Guam welcomed Giuseppe Gennarini and the Iterenant Catechist team of the United States. Truly, this is a historic moment for the Neocatechumenal Way in Guam. Some of the brothers in Saipan also flew to Guam for this historic event. A few of the priests in Newark and New York were also present. In the meeting with Gennarini, it was announced that some of the brothers in Guam will evangelize in Chuuk, Yap, Palau, American Samoa, anf Kiribati. We will evangelize throughout the Pacific.
JungleWatch is having a heart attack over this post, Diana. LOL! 😆
ReplyDeleteYep. They even took Diana's pic of Gennarini.
DeleteYou're gonna love this. Rohr is trying to shift the blame on the bankruptcy on the Way.

DeleteAccording to Tim Rohr:
“Given that so many years have now passed since these events, and given the sad state of affairs the archdiocese now finds itself in, it's easy to forget how all of this came about and just blame the most obvious figures: Apuron's initial accusers, the Concerned Catholics of Guam, the picketers, myself, this blog, etc.”
The people of Guam clearly understand that the entire JungleWatch Nation was solely responsible for the bankruptcy in the Archdiocese. There is a lot of written evidence showing this. All the written and oral testimonies in the Guam Legislature point to the jungle folks supporting the passage of a bill, allowing accusers to file a lawsuit against the Archdiocese. Even LFM, which is affiliated with the jungle parked themselves at the doorsteps of Adelup, trying to convince the governor to pass the bill into law. Again according to Tim Rohr, he stated in his blog:
“But given the facts, there is no question who and what brought the Archdiocese of Agana down. And given Kiko's right hand man, Giussepe Gennarini's recent presence in Guam, one has to wonder if the Kiko's aren't circling the remains of the Archdiocese of Agana and organizing to scoop up former church properties.”
Someone needs to tell Rohr that the NCW in Guam is focused on attending the World Youth Day in Portugal and evangelizing in the Pacific. We have approximately 160 Guam youth and their parents and chaperones attending the World Youth Day in Portugal. The cost of the entire trip is approximately $3,500 per pilgrim. The monies is going towards the World Youth Day in Portugal. By the time we leave in July, all expenses (airfare, hotel accommodations, etc.) would be paid off. Our focus remains on the 2023 World Youth Day and the evangelization of the Pacific, not on scooping up former church properties, which is an unfounded accusation.
Perhaps, the jungle should be more mindful of their Catechism study group. What has their study group produced so far? Did it motivate any young man into the priesthood? Has it produce any priests? Did it motivate any sisters into the religious life? Did their study group go out to evangelize anyone back into the Church? Did their study group take part in any pilgrimage?
