Invoking the Saints....

Catholic Action Network recently posted the upcoming 'Women's Ordination' information on the "What's New" section of its "Justice for Women in the Catholic Church" web page:

2 women from JWCC to be ordained on November 11th in St. Louis
More information here. [the 10/15 Press Release]

Ree and Elsie will co-pastor the Thérèse of Divine Peace Inclusive Community on Saturdays at 4:30 p.m. beginning December 1, 2007. The Thérèse community will meet in Hope Chapel at the First Unitarian Church of Saint Louis, 5007 Waterman Avenue. Please join us!

But there is even more, and this may irritate the already agitated nerves of Catholics who see this farce for what it truly is - an open rebellion against Christ and His Church.

Why not try to bring the saints in heaven into the mix. Rebelling takes on a truly new meaning - one can be a "St Catherine of Siena" contributor. Who would invoke the name of a saint, while cooperating in the sin of others?

If you would like to sponsor the ordination through a financial contribution e-mail CAN.

All contributions welcome:
St. Therese-The Little Flower: $25
Joan of Arc: $50
St. Catherine of Sienna: $100

What sane, rational person would think that these saintly women would be pleased with the use of their names in such an endeavor? No one - the key words being 'sane' and 'rational.' What a spectacle this is...

And CAN does not end it here - there is more that it wants its readers to know (just in case, they, too, feel 'called'):

Women Led-Liturgies
an opportunity for Catholic women (especially those called to ordination) to lead prayer
St. Cronan's parish: 1202 S Boyle Ave
