They would not go without ministry, but they would lack a proper bishop. I was thinking that the peruvians, with would be more devout that the spanish, would send word home for a priest soonish, so the first years Marduk wold be under the diocese of Cuzco (and they will never, even let their spanish brethren forger this on their meetings). Port Luna and Kandor wold probable be under some USA diocese (Boston?) That first peruvian priest would then become the bishop -but of course he can be a Jesuit, too.
Wait, jesuits are monks... can they even become bishops? Screw it, I still do have that empty monastery in the crater, I am giving it to the Jesuits. Sadly, the Father General did not allow "St Vidicon", so they chose St Philip Neri. Since the Father is a Jesuit, the chances are that he knows where they did get the idea of picking St Philip, but he said nothing...
And Rob, the visit would not be to Marduk only, it would be a full Papal visit to the Moon, and probably other planets. Chances are he would make one or two stops in Cislunar Space, and in 2020 Sellvia should still be the primary "first stop" station, so Safety has many places to chose. Pope Benedict XVI will be 93 in 2020, so it is likely (but not at all certain) that the visit would come from his successor, but since it is just background dressing, we can leave the papal identity blank unless/until someone wants to make a proper writeup of the Cathotlic church in Fenspace.
The Catholic Episcopal Sees off earth in 2021:
-Bishop of Marduk
-Bishop of Crystal Venice
-Bishop of Helium
-Bishop of Port Ceres
-Bishop of Serenity Valley
-Bishop of Coruscant
Edit: Also, an english district? With actual englishmen, I suppose. Oh, dear Washu why do you try me so, WHY??? I'll think on it... and Drake's Head pub is amusing, so consider it, at minimun, stolen
