Two Roman Catholic female priests who were recently ordained co-pastored their first mass Saturday night in the central west end.
Rose Marie Hudson and Elsie McGrath led the service at the first Unitarian church of St. Louis.
About one hundred people showed up.
The service was held in the church's Hope Chapel.
The pastor of the church says it was a fitting place for an event where hope and understanding were very much alive.
The Roman Catholic Church does not recognize the ordination of Hudson and McGrath that was conducted by an organization called Roman Catholic Women Priests.

It boggles the mind how some women are dying to become priests yet shun becoming nuns.

And by Catholic they mean the universal Catholic church of Me First....
I’m not Catholic but I gotta feel for the frustration having people who have been booted from your church claim now to be priest/ministers/pastors is infuriating..

I do not understand WHY news organizations insist on calling these people Catholic when they clearly are NOT. Really? It's because mainstream news organizations have a specifically anti-Christian agenda.

It’s all about power. They are victims of the feminist movement. When my daughter made her Confirmation, the Bishop asked several of the girls if they wanted to be priests when they grew up (he is left wing liberal). Comments such as that simply fuel the fire of desire.

That's unbelievably awful. Whoever takes over his diocese will have a big fumigation bill.

Rose Marie Hudson and Elsie McGrath led the service at the first Unitarian church of St. Louis. Excuse me!
That should be Father Rose Marie Hudson!
Seriously, have these loons come to grips with the issue of their "official" titles? Father? Mother? Sister? Rosie baby?
The Unitarian Church is where they're gonna end up anyways.

Dear
Pope Ace XIV As duly Elected President of the Lutheran United World Wide faith, let's unite the Churches. We'll go for the Pope thing, but we gotta stayed married. Also, the smelly candles have to go... Deal?

We dont want them. Don't blame you. We don't want them, either.
AND ... We formally excommunicated them. Informally, too.
So they're not ours.
And they are protesting us.
That makes them ...
uhhhhhhh ...
Oh, yes. It makes them protestants.
My condolences.
