Fr. Terra was terribly beaten when Fr. Kenneth Walker was murdered by Gary Michael Moran last year in a robbery attempt at Mater Misericordiae Mission here in Phoenix Az. Because of the injuries Fr. Terra receive, his body is not able to keep up with all he has done here in Phoenix. For this reason he is moving to a smaller parish in Tyler Texas. 
Today was his final Latin Mass with his parishioners. Fr. David Kemna also left a month ago to be a contemplative in a traditional Carmelite Order.
