Editor's note: This article was originally published on February 16, 2022. It has since been updated. A Catholic priest resigned after an investigation found that he used one wrong word for more than 20 years while performing baptisms. The church also declared that all the baptisms performed by the priest, Father Andres Arango, have been declared void because he used the words "We" instead of "I." The decision was announced by Bishop Thomas Olmsted of the Diocese of Phoenix. The church's investigation found that Father Arango would say, "We baptize you in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and the Holy Spirit." Olmsted clarified that he was supposed to say "I baptize" and not "We baptize," reported CNN. The pastor apologized for using the 'wrong formula.'

A pastor baptized people for decades. But he used one wrong word and now they're all invalid.

“We’re going to find this guy,” the sheriff said to Bill Gibbons, the news editor of the Gaffney Ledger. Bill was worried. He didn’t ask for this. Out of everything he wasn’t sure about, Gibbons was sure about this: “I just never want to hear that voice on my phone again,” He replied. They went back and forth about the upcoming rumors from the little town of Gaffney, South Carolina. The killer called once already, speaking directly to Bill about the coordinates of three different bodies that he placed around town. The people of Gaffney didn’t fully buy into the idea that he got this information for free. No, they had their own beliefs.
