Re:CatholicsonRMSSeminaryandArchdiocesanpropertyandlastnightsTVnews
LearndCounsel:
Per last nights TV news, when several Catholics visited the RMS Seminary the police
werecalled.ItwasexplainedtoapoliceofficerthattheCatholicswishedtospeakwith
Archbishop Apuron. According to a report, the police officer conferred with people
insidetheSeminarythenstatedthatFatherPiushadinstructedthepolicemanthatthe
CatholicsshouldbeorderedtoleavethepremisesoftheSeminary.
ItissomewhatbizarrethattheRectoroftheSeminarygivesanorderfortheremovalof
peaceful Catholics from a location that solicits support from all island Catholics and
holds itself out as an institution of higher learning. If you are counsel for the
Redemptoris Mater Archdiocesan Missionary Seminary, a NonProfit Corporation,
pleasebesokindastoprovidesuchadoptedrulesasareextantwhichprohibitCatholics
fromvisitingCorporationproperty.IfyouarenotcounselfortheCorporationthenby
meansof a copy of this letter I make the same request to the Rector, Father Pius
Sammut.
Asanalternative,ImakethesamerequesttoyouascounselforArchbishopofAgaa,
Anthony S. Apuron, Incumbent (Archbishop.) Because of the statements of the
Archbishopsagents,i.e.theVicarGeneralandtheChancellor,heisestoppedtodeny

The news reports showed that the Catholics at the Seminary wanted a conversation
with the Archbishop. But when they made that request they were ordered off the
property.TheimplicationhereisthatCatholicscanonlyspeaktotheArchbishopwhen
heisNOTonChurchproperty.Again,pleaseuseyourgoodofficestoinformastowhere

Absent your prompt response transmitting such rules, might I not be free to assume

that I am free to peaceably visit such Archdiocesan and Seminary premises as I might
