Military Archbishop Criticizes Cancellation of Religious Support Contracts
The Archdiocese for the Military Services announced that the Army has cancelled all religious support contracts for Army chapels.
According to Archbishop Timothy P. Broglio, this cancellation includes contracts for religious educators, administrators, and musicians.
This has placed on Catholics “an insurmountable restriction on the free exercise of religion.”
The archbishop stated that this change is noticeable to those who attend Mass, visit chapel offices, or participate in faith formation on a U.S. Army installation, as contract services and contractor offices are no longer available.
The archbishop will send a letter to members of the military archdiocese and all members of Congress regarding this issue.
