BROCKTON — Rep. Barney Frank and Undersecretary of Consumer Affairs and Business Regulation Barbara Anthony will join the Brockton Interfaith Community for a community meeting and prayer vigil Sunday afternoon.

The purpose of the meeting is to update citizens on a new federal homeowners assistance program that was included in the Frank-Dodd banking bill passed in July.

The meeting will be Sunday at St. Patrick Church, 335 Main St., from 3:30 to 4:30 p.m.

The program gives the Department of Housing and Urban Development $1 billion to assist unemployed and underemployed homeowners who are in foreclosure. Massachusetts will receive $61 million of that money, enough to help about 1,500 families across the state, said Janine Carreiro, lead organizer for BIC.

The money will go to unemployed homeowners as a low-interest loan to get them current on their mortgage payments, and even pay their mortgage ahead up to two years.

Applications for the assistance program are not being accepted yet, and possibly not until the end of the year, but Carreiro said informing people now will help Brockton area families get a jump-start when the program goes live.

She said Neighborhood Housing Services will be on hand to help people with pre-application information.

He is praying for his re-election as he was a major cause of the financial crisis.

Why would wiener mouth bother to go?

Do you really believe the Judeo Christina God, wants to hear from a LIAR, major CHEAT, homosexual who NEVER changes his ways? He's a proud serial sinner that does all possible to look like a victim and make it someone elses fault.

I've certainly had enough of him ... I wonder if God has ... .

“Aren’t we supposed to separate church and state?”

Well ... are you saying Demoncrats are arbitrary?

You’re RIGHT!

If it make them “look good”, then it’s okay.

Damn!

That's like Jefrey Dahmer attending his victims' funeral anniversary.

This goes beyond b***s and firmly into insanity territory.

Donate so this ad can run in Brockton and everywhere else in Barney Frank's district, and the people can see how he LED them to this disaster...

StopBarney Ad: "BETRAYED OUR TRUST"

(1) Scott Brown won Frank's district
(2) Frank is at 46% support, below the critical threshold for incuments
(3) The ad is devastating. When hard-hit families see it, his support will evaporate

Many times criminals can’t resist returning to the scene of a crime. Old washed up Barney thinks he can punk his victims once again.

Prayer vigil for a hypocritical openly homosexual Harvard-educated secular progressive ruling class maggot? Oh, the horror of NPR, Mother Jones and The Nation.
