Fake Priest Alert: Diocese Warns La Paz Faithful About Unauthorized Sacraments

The Diocese of La Paz has issued a public warning about Gregorio Díaz Mora, a man posing as a Catholic priest and offering unauthorized sacraments across Baja California Sur. He uses images of Guadalupe Sanctuary in La Paz to appear legitimate, confusing residents and making any sacraments he performs invalid. The diocese urges the faithful to verify the officiant's identity directly through parish offices for all Catholic ceremonies.
