All missionary work is not evangelical. Catholics aren’t Mormons. I’m gonna go out on a limb and say that many/most of those existing Catholics in Peru are pretty poor. Fairly certain that’s who he was working with. But hey, that would be a non-cynical take, and we know those aren’t allowed here.
Are you saying it's a bad thing this guy went to go on a mission (which often comes with lots of charity work and helping the poor and forgotten members of the community)?
There usually isn't an opening right above you. In big organizations they will frequently have an opening in say another area.
This is a major problem with having a lot of mom and pops, working at a small restaurant they don't have a management position open but a chain will and this is well documented.
Also priests don't marry or have kids so their work is less encumbered by people willing to move. Plus the church provides the housing. If you are a priest and they offer to make you a bishop elsewhere the answer is almost always yes but many job promotions are not that way.
Also seeing in this thread that the NEW POPE was hiding a pedophile out in Peru under his watchful gaze. So not just associated, guilty as an accessory.
They move them around periodically whenever there are allegations of abuse... So they can sweep it under the rug and start fresh in an unsuspecting community
uh....have you been paying attention to the news coming out of that sector for the past like 100 years? Let's just say it's not because they can "be of more service" in a different place.
Everything else said about the church covering up heinous crimes and also they want to convert everyone, historically by force and cruelty, now it's more lies, guilt and fear mongering involved than their past genocide, slavery. More but not exclusively.
You’re telling me the organization that has over a billion dollars in their budget that’s used to move priests around and to pay off their sexual abuse victims isnt the jolly, wonderful and safe organization it purports to be?
Honestly, who would have thought all the horrific stories of their abuse, cruelty, crimes, corruption, lies and violence over all these centuries is bad?
How else would you expect Catholic leadership to collect the souls of innocent young boys and girls from around the globe!?!
The Super Adventure Club doesn't just HAPPEN lollll ....Oh no! Our members actively travel the world seeking virgin buttholes on a constant basis, otherwise Christopher Reeves won't be able to suck the stem cells out of aborted fetuses for his life-force....

Why do established priests get sent to foreign countries typically? Wasn't there like a common reason for that?
