Dear Friends,
On April 9th we received a letter from the Archdiocese announcing a tribunal to investigate the charge of schism against Fr. John Mary for “denying the legitimacy…of Pope Francis.” We are publishing the letter in the interest of transparency, and so that you are aware of what is happening. In fact, we requested this tribunal last July in an attempt to follow proper canonical procedures and to clarify the situation.
We know this news can be very troubling, but we believe the Lord is asking us to trust in Him whatever the eventual outcome may be.
“For we know that all things work to the good for those that love God.” (Rm 8:28)
We invite you to unite with us in prayer as we live Holy Week and to offer this trial to the Lord with trust and abandonment.
Jesus, we trust in You.
The Mission of Divine Mercy
P.S. Fr. John Mary is misnamed in the document as Fr. Joseph Mary Foster.
