Archbishop García-Siller said in a March 15 statement that the Mission of Divine Mercy’s ‘status as a Catholic apostolate of the Archdiocese of San Antonio has been suppressed and revoked by official decree.’
Both men had their faculties removed and are prohibited from identifying themselves as priests. They are forbidden from wearing clerical clothing and using clerical titles.
Archbishop Gustavo García-Siller of San Antonio said, ‘Their loss and sorrow are part of our own tragedy as a community. As we are all grieving, we also want to communicate our hope in the resurrection to those who mourn and to the world.’
The concrete statue depicting Joseph, Mary and Jesus was missing from outside St. Margaret Mary Catholic Church in San Antonio as of the morning of Feb. 17.
