It is my understanding that a parishioner did the transaction for the buying of Saint Michaels.
I do not believe it was known the SSPX wanted it until after the sale.
Yes a parishoner probably handled the transaction. BUT ....the Bishop on seeing the offer and NOT seeing a condition for a zone change (so the church could be used for some other purpose) would have immediately asked himself "which denomination is buying my church?" Lest it be purchased by a satanic cult etc a prudent Bishop would have enquired as to its intended use. He was under no obligation to sell. Even at full price or more he didn't have to sell (albeit he'd probably have to pay the commission but even then probably not if the agent ever wanted to do business with the diocese again) IF his primary concern was money, then he has no right to object AFTER THE FACT! ! !
My concern was especially how misleading many of his statements were and that apparently this letter was sent to all the NO churches.
lYes, they would sell off properties to athiest vand devil worshippers and even secular organizations then to traditional catholics.
They hate all things Catholic and traditional. The above is what is expressed all over usa, canada etc. even after the 2009 excommunications. Many within NO are even praying that we herectics come back because misery and lukewarmness loves company.
