Archbishop Michael Jude Byrnes appointed the Rev. Danilo “Danny” Ferrandiz to, among other things, review the Neocatechumenal Way’s basic pastoral theology principles or teachings.

In an official aviso, Byrnes said Ferrandiz’s appointment as delegate to the Neocatechumenal Way in the Archdiocese of Agana is effective April 7.

The Neocatechumenal Way is a movement within the Catholic church whose practices sometimes are at odds with those of Guam’s traditional Catholic community.

Ferrandiz is parochial administrator at Santa Barbara Chapel in Agafa Gumas in Yigo, the Archdiocese of Agana’s website says. Calls and emails to Ferrandiz were not returned as of press time Thursday.
