2) a correction in the Umatuna Si Yuos for November 29 that
deliberately ran a grossly misleading , bogus certificate of title for the
referenced land. (See accompanying copy of the Umatuna and VI,
supra.)

Thus, I hereby sincerely ask the collaboration of all the faithful to act
with obedience to the directive of the Holy See. And, in particular, I
request that community which now enjoys in perpetuity the use of the
"property" to spontaneously and effectively renounce, without any

litigation, such a benefit obtained from the Archdiocese of Agaa.Sucha


courageous act of renouncing will certainly earn respect and recognition
from the HolySee,aswellasmany faithful,thePresbyterial[sic]Council,
andmyself.

The implication is that if the community doesnt spontaneously and effectively


renounce,litigationmaylie.Thefaithfulwillbelookingforwardtotheupdates.

theArchdiocesanFinanceCouncil.Iespeciallycallyourattentiontothelastparagraphof
thestatementwhichreads:

Unbeknownst to us, Archbishop Apuron, with the help of Monsignor David,


Fr. Pius, Fr. Adrian, and the NCW, secretly and without consulting and
securing the consent of theAFC,letalone theCollege ofConsultersandthe
Vatican, transferred theYonapropertytotheRMSandrecordedthedeedon
November 22, 2011. This is why the November16letterwasneverdeliveredto
us until after November 22 and why the Vicar General andArchbishopwereso
vehement in their reaction to us that we were holding a meeting to discuss the
issue. They wanted to eliminate and preempt the possibility that we will
discover during a meeting of the AFC that they had alreadysecretlytransferred
the property, a disclosure that would have ignited a canonical firestorm. We
were fired to hide the fact that the archbishop and others secretly and in
violation of canon law, and perhaps civil law as well, not to mention their
fiduciary responsibility to the Catholic faithful, gave away the Yona
property to the RMS, a separate entity controlled by the NCW, for free.

Employing the third option, i.e. doing nothing, amounts to a surrender to Apuron and
Pius and the humiliation of Archbishop Hon, a result that to loyal Catholics would be
abhorrent.

As per final sentence of Archbishop Hons August 19 statement, The Church will
