text: Sorry Petrus, but both Montana dioceses were mission territory well into the late twentieth century.  There really isn't a lot of property or assets to speak of.  This is not Catholic territory up here, and never has been.  The Great Falls diocese covers the same square area as New York and many of the original 13 colonies excluding Maine and Massachusetts. It has 38,000 Catholics. Bankruptcy really is the only path for any kind of financial recompense.  It is not Milwaukee by any stretch of the imagination.
