Female "Catholic" Priestess Pretends to Have First "Mass"

Simulating the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, Eileen DiFranco, one of the eight recently "ordained" faux priestess, led a group of heretics, apostates, and schismatics at the First United Methodist Church of Germantown.

"Nothing is impossible with our God," she told [the] congregation..."Not even a woman priest."

Actually, some tihngs are impossible with God - God cannot choose evil, God cannot lie...

"I feel I have been called out by my community to do this," DiFranco said in an interview. "It has been a nudging along the way by God and by people who know me."

. . .DiFranco said people were looking for more from the church. "The big issues that might have brought some of you here today remain unaddressed, untackled, unmentionable," she said.

Rejoice! Our liberation cometh!

...DiFranco has been an active member of the Church of the Beatitudes, a congregation of about 20 people in the Old Catholic community. The group rents space from Garden United Methodist Church in Lansdowne.

Why, she wasn't a Roman Catholic at all but a member of a schismatic group...

...DiFranco celebrated her first Mass at the church, speaking of peace, tolerance and God's love.

"We want to support Eileen and this movement" toward the ordination of women, said Carl Yusavitz, 61, a Mount Airy resident who attends St. Vincent's Catholic Church in Germantown.

"I consider Eileen a Catholic and a priest," he said. "Her validity is based on 'By their fruits, you will know them.' Eileen has wonderful fruits."

Wonderful fruits? OK...

Toward the end of her homily, DiFranco told the congregation that "in Jesus, there was never a disconnect... . The words excommunication and intrinsically disordered would not have been part of Jesus' vocabulary."

He used the terms: vipers and whited sepulchers - He told the Apostles to shake the dust their sandles when leaving those towns who would not listen to them - he threw the money changers from the temple. He gave the Apostles the power to bind and loose in His name...

The congregation applauded and later greeted her and her husband, Larry, at the entrance to the church. "It was wonderful," DiFranco said of the Mass. "I felt so lifted up."

Notice how it always ends with "ME"?
