The Redemptoris Mater Seminary property in Yona has the highest value amongst the properties the church owns.
Guam – The Archdiocese of Agana has identified a total of 86 properties so far it owns of which 41 are on the chopping block as part of settlement negotiations. However, at this point, the church does not want to disclose the value of those properties
Two days after the Archdiocese of Agana announced their intention to assess parishes and schools additional charges in order to raise $2.5 million for their 2018 operating budget, today they disclosed the number of properties they have at their disposal.
Archdiocesan Finance Council President Richard Untalan and other members of the finance council handed out a listing of properties the Archdiocese owns. There are a total of 86 they have identified so far.
The list is divided into two: essential and non-essential properties. Essential properties are, for the most part, parishes and schools, as well as four lease-hold properties that include the San Vitores shrine, the Civille and Tang law office building, the Epicure building and the FHP lease property. These properties are not available for sale or liquidation and are “essential” to the archdiocese in order to operate.
