Rev. Andres Arango's error was in saying, 'We baptize you ...' when he should have begun the sentence by saying, 'I baptize you.'
Pope Francis says cats and dogs are taking the place of children in the family as he presided over his first general audience of the New Year.
The Diocese of Phoenix is trying to identify people baptized by Arango. It has set up an FAQ section on its website to confront issues related to the botched baptisms and created a form for people to fill out to start the process of getting re-baptized. The most dramatic consequence in that case involved the Rev. Matthew Hood, who was baptized as a boy by the deacon and later became a priest: Because his baptism was invalid, so was his 2017 ordination. Hood discovered the error while watching a video of his childhood baptism, the local archdiocese said.
"Likely, the people who heard it happen in Phoenix were aware of these other stories and therefore knew the phrasing to be incorrect," Burke said. Before serving at St. Gregory, Arango was pastor at Saint Jerome Catholic Church in Phoenix and the St. Anne Roman Catholic Parish in nearby Gilbert. Earlier, he served in San Diego and Brazil.
