Good bye to Bishops appeals, as far as I’m concerned. I gave to the Bishops’ appeal only for the spread of the Faith. I will choose more carefully where I donate from now on.

Same here. While I am glad that we succeeded in shaming them into dropping ACORN, they are still helping illegals and who knows what other anti-American activities. I do not trust them.

The local Bishop's appeals have nothing to do with ACORN. I believe those support only the outreaches of the Diocese. I frankly don't know where the UCCB gets it's funding. I thought that ACORN was getting its funding through the Campaign for Human Development, which has it's own collection once a year in the Parishes, not from the UCCB.

We might have given to CCHD 30 years ago, but since they got so deeply political, we gave to Peter's Pence and the local Bishop's Appeal instead.
