During a Mass in 1987, Fr. Enrique Cadena spontaneously handed the chalice to pastoral associate Mary Ramerman and asked her to raise it while he elevated the host. Over time, the role of women leaders in the Mass grew, as having the chalice elevated by Mary or Sr. Margie became a regular part of our services, and more liturgical prayers were said by Mary Ramerman. In 1994 Mary was vested with an alb and a banner which hung from her right shoulder, as a sign of her ministry at Corpus Christi.
Fr. Callan did not comply with sanctions imposed and was later excommunicated.
I know the church well. the bishop should have replaced him immediately. He ruined this wonderful church. I graduated for the school which was next door to the church. That was more than 50 years ago.
