Members of the Archdiocesan Movement for Transparency (AMT) burnt a copy of the circular issued on Friday by Mar Andrews Thazhath, the Apostolic Administrator of the Ernakulam-Angamaly Archdiocese, in front of the Bishop’s House in Ernakulam on Saturday to register their protest.
The circular had reminded priests and laity of the archdiocese of communication sent by the Pope on the need to adhere to the unified mode of worship at all parishes under the Syro-Malabar Church.
The AMT, a combine of priests and lay people, had said that representatives of parish councils would meet at the Pastoral Orientation Centre here on Sunday to discuss the developments. “It appears that our views have not been conveyed properly to the Vatican,” said AMT spokesperson Riju Kanjookkaran on Saturday.
