NEW YORK – A priest in Texas who recently called Pope Francis a “usurper” has had his faculties for public ministry removed by Archbishop Gustavo García-Siller of San Antonio. The archbishop said the decision was made to prevent “further confusion and grave scandal”.
García-Siller not only stripped the priest, Father John Mary Foster, of faculties for public ministry, but he also withdrew the status of the apostolate that Foster founded in 2010, Mission of Divine Mercy, as an official apostolate of the Archdiocese of San Antonio.
