The Archdiocese of Agana on Friday announced three new priest appointments, including a priest that Archbishop Anthony S. Apuron removed from a Dededo church in 2013.
Another appointment replaced the rector of a Yona seminary that has once again gained attention after the archdiocese’s temporary archbishop said in a statement that the pope had instructed Apuron more than once to remove a deed restriction on the property on which the seminary sits.
Archbishop Savio Hon Tai Fai, who currently oversees Guam’s archdiocese, appointed the Rev. Paul Gofigan as the rector of the Dulce Nombre de Maria Cathedral-Basilica in Hagåtña and Monsignor David C. Quitugua as acting rector of the Redemptoris Mater Seminary in Yona.
The appointments are the latest in an ongoing church reorganization since the Vatican sent Hon to Guam in early June to temporarily administer the local Catholic Church.
