Catholic Apostolic National Church (CANC) :: View topic - Attacks Against the Phillipine Church Worsen

BpAndre

The Primate of the Church in the Phillipines, Archbishop Joseph Galaroza has called for a return to a sensible and Christian viewpoint, on behalf of the Roman Catholic Bishops of the Phillipines, who have been attacking the Igreja Catolica Apostolica Brasileira nas Filipinas, under his care. In his open letter, he refutes the attacks against the church, and the claims that the Holy Orders of the Church are not valid. His open letter is available through the website of the CANC (U.S.) to view, at: http://www.oldcatholic.com/openletter.pdf .

I have written a letter supporting Archbishop Galaroza's fight, and have faxed both to the Roman Catholic Apostolic Nuncio to the United States, in Washington, D.C. My letter can be viewed through the CANC (U.S.) website, at: http://www.oldcatholic.com/delegate.pdf and will soon be linked through the U.S. church's news page.

I ask everyone to make common cause with our church family in the Phillipines, as these attacks have been ongoing. I have been in communication with Archbishop Galaroza and his staff regarding this growing problem over the past months, as has been our Patriarch, Dom Luis.

Copies of both letters have been sent to our Patriarch and also to our own College of Bishops and to every Primate in the ICAN Communion. As a family of faith, we will all rush to the aid of our brothers and sisters in Christ, who are in need.
