The Archdiocese own audit done March 2004 found many irregularities. The independent auditor refused to write an exoneration letter. The money was spent before these new parishioners arrived. We did have priests assigned, Father Sanderson was the last one before Stravinskas arrived.Anyone who disagreed with Stravinskas was threatened with a libel lawsuit. During today's homily he called the concerned parishioners evil lunatics! My, how Christian! This administrator does not even abide by Archdiocese rules so why wouldn't priests at the chancellery have concerns?

I see you've surfaced again as "concerned catholic". I guess that is better than "anonymous".

I arrived at the parish as a new parishoner the same year that Father arrived.

No money was spent refurbishing that dump until after I arrived.

You did not have any permanent in residence priests assigned to the parish . They were assigned permanently at other parishes and just came to celebrate mass. No one with authority was running the parish. Just the lay people.

The audit found no evidence of criminal activities. Many people have irregularities in their accounting, it doesn't mean there is criminal activity.

I don't think anyone would confuse disagreements with the outright attacks that the "lynch mob" was subjecting father Stravinskas to.

A little clarity here. Father referred to the goings on of the past three weeks as lunacy. He referred to the actions perpetrated by people who wish to see an innocent priest pilloried, as evil.

The priests at the chancery don't have concerns, they have vendettas. One in particular wants him out and is using the lynch mob as a means to that end.

You folks have been working on ousting Father from the minute he arrived and informed you that he was in charge.
Ever since then, we've had to endure this huge Romper room spectacle of grown adults crying foul whenever the priest wants to make a decision.

This is absolutely bizarre!
