As misinformation continues to be spread regarding the theft of our beloved St. Michael Tabot, we can no longer remain silent. Our community deserves the truth.
Taking anything from a church without the knowledge, consent, or informing of the congregation is theft. Our community was not informed or consulted regarding this removal.
If there was truly a matter of procedure or protocol, both Tabots would have been addressed, not only the St. Michael Tabot, and not just days before our annual celebration after months of preparation and collective effort. The “removal” was selective and timed.
We will continue to speak openly, present the facts, and defend the integrity of our church. Truth cannot be hidden, and no amount of misinformation will change what has occurred.
We remain steadfast in our faith and committed to seeking justice.
