It is time for women priests in the land of my birth, St. Brigit of Kildare, woman bishop, pray for us! Bridget Mary Meehan, www.arcwp.org
"Parishioners in some parts of Ireland have started to lead Catholic masses, as the number of priests in the country falls. Only 16 young Irish men are due to start training for the priesthood in 2012, compared to more than 150 per year in the 1980s. Not all members of the Church have welcomed the move but there is little sign of the laity-led services ceasing."

ReplyDeleteIt is right and proper that some of the proceeds go to replenishing the recently depleted and shabby retirement funds of deceased old priests.
ReplyDeleteOh, all right, but not until you've coughed up the final installment on my latest Cappa Magna.
ReplyDeleteMy puppeteer and I watched the video and have observed that there were no pedophile priests.
