Advent Vespers?


A local Catholic parish has elected to have Rabbi Susan Talve speak at its "Advent Vespers" on December 11. Interesting, to say the least. Perhaps, it's a veiled endorsement of her stance last month of defiance against the Archdiocese?

For those who may not be familiar with Susan Talve, she is the rabbi of the Central Reform Congregation synagogue where the faux "ordinations" of Elsie McGrath and Rose Hudson as "priests" took place with so-called "Bishop" Patricia Fresen of 'Roman Catholic WomenPriests', a group of women who have separated themselves from the Church. (See previous posts here, here, and here).

Why any Catholic parish would undertake such a move in light of recent scandalous and divisive events is incomprehensible.
