- I, the undersigned Diocesan Bishop of Brooklyn, in my role as the legitimate shepherd of this particular Church, wish to confirm the constant position of the Diocese of Brooklyn that a thorough investigation revealed that the alleged "visions of Bayside" completely lacked authenticity.
[…]
Therefore, in consultation with the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, I hereby declare that:
# No credibility can be given to the so-called "apparitions" reported by Veronica Lueken and her followers.
# The "messages" and other related propaganda contain statements which, among other things, are contrary to the teachings of the Catholic Church, undermine the legitimate authority of bishops and councils and instill doubts in the minds of the faithful, for example, by claiming that, for years, an "imposter Pope" governed the Catholic Church in place of Paul VI.
