Franciscan Sisters’ Land Return: Modernist Subversion of Catholic Mission
The Catholic News Agency portal reports on the Franciscan Sisters of Perpetual Adoration selling land to the Lac du Flambeau tribe for $30,000 (1% of its market value), framing it as historic “repair for colonization” and “healing.” The land, purchased from the tribe in 1966 for their spirituality center, is returned alongside confessions of “complicity” in operating St. Mary’s Catholic Indian Boarding School (1883-1969), which they now condemn for “suppressing Native identity.” This theatrical gesture, praised by diocesan “bishop” James Powers as “justice and reconciliation,” exemplifies the neo-church’s apostasy from its divine mandate.
