(ANSA) – CATANZARO, JUL 27 – Don Mattia Bernasconi, the priest of the parish of San Luigi Gonzaga in Milan who celebrated mass at sea in Crotone at the end of a volunteer camp in Libera, is registered in the register of suspects by the Crotone Prosecutor’s Office who opened a file on the celebration that took place on Sunday in the locality of Alfieri on an inflatable mattress. The parish priest is under investigation for an offense to religious confession. The initiative of the prosecutor Giuseppe Capoccia would arise, according to when learned in judicial circles, from the examination of articles and photos that appeared above all on social media that would have caused offense to the Catholic religion.
Meanwhile, the priest has apologized. “I am writing to you a few but heartfelt lines to apologize for the celebration on Sunday 24 morning in the waters of the sea of Capo Colonna”. Fr Mattia Bernasconi, vicar of pastoral care for young people, writes this in a letter published on the website of the parish of San Luigi di Gonzaga in Milan. “It was absolutely not my intention to trivialize the Eucharist or to use it for other messages of any kind”, adds Don Bernasconi.
