Bishop Mario Grech has denied that he will suspend priests who abide by traditional Church teaching on the Eucharist.
Several websites had reported rumours that the Maltese bishop had threatened to suspend priests from saying Mass unless they give Communion to the remarried.
Last week, Bishop Grech and Archbishop Charles Scicluna of Malta, the country’s two prelates, issued a document on the subject. They said that divorced and remarried Catholics could not be refused Communion if they discerned that they were at “peace with God”.
