Vatican Discipline for Priest Involved with Medjugorje Catholic Culture September 3, 2008 http://www.catholicculture.org/news/headlines/index.cfm?storyid=241 [with link to statement by Bishop Ratko Peric of Mostar] Statement by Bishop Ratko Peric of Mostar Father Tomislav Vlasic, a Franciscan priest who was prominent in the first efforts to publicize the alleged apparitions at Medjugorje, has been placed under interdict by the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith because of his flagrant disregard for ecclesiastical discipline. Father Vlasic-- who eventually broke with the Medjugorje "seers" and founded his own quasi-religious community, was cited for "suspicion of heresy and schism, as well as scandalous acts contra sextum, aggravated by mystical motivations." |
