That is one troubled priest (on a power trip) who needs to be prayed for.

That is one troubled priest who's probably receiving his orders from one troubled bishop.

By the way, Bishop Brown has been silent so far on this whole matter. The feeling is that he probably wants to empty out the parish, close it down, and then sell the property, which is located three blocks from the beach. It would bring in several million dollars towards the new cathedral he wants to build.

This is the same bishop who yanked the Tridentine Mass away from about 300 parishioners, upon the retirement of the pastor two years ago. He did this even though several other priests were able and willing to offer it.

When I moved to a Seattle suburb in the mid 90's, I was amazed to find no kneelers in the church.  I moved on to another parish that was further away within a month.

The actions of this Bishop and Priest seem egregious.
