ST. LOUIS In a little more than a week, Aquinas Institute of Theology will be one of the first seminaries in the country to be visited by Vatican teams looking for evidence of homosexuality.
A group of five visitors, led by Bishop Michael Burbidge of Philadelphia, will evaluate Aquinas from Sept. 25-29. The Vatican said the purpose of the visitation was "to examine the criteria for admission of candidates and the programs of human formation and spiritual formation aimed at ensuring that they faithfully live chastely for the Kingdom."
St. Louis Archbishop Raymond Burke and Belleville Bishop Edward K. Braxton will be among the 117 bishops and seminary staff the Vatican will send to seminaries across the United States between the end of this month and next spring.
This site is dedicated to promoting and defending the Catholic Faith, in union with Christ and His Church and in union with the authentic Holy Father, the faithful successor of St. Peter.
