Over at HMS Blog:

I just spoke with Cardinal Maida's spokesman in an attempt to clarify rumours that he would not interfere in the Mercy High School Auction.

The spokesperson states, "The Cardinal believes that this is a matter best resolved by the Mercy High School administration. The issue should be taken up with the High School's board of trustees and the Sisters of Mercy. The Cardinal himself regrets that the school has chosen to take this action and regrets any confusion this action may cause."

To which I respond, "The HMS Blog regrets that Cardinal Maida is such a gutless weasel." Please call the Cardinal and let them know your displeasure. Keep the phones ringing. (313) 237-5816

Protest called against Mercy-less auction

Feb. 19, 2003

Urgent! Urgent! Urgent!

From: Monica Migliorino Miller, Ph.D., Director

Friends,

Mercy High School in Farmington Hills has chosen to prefer abortion to Cardinal Maida and the Church's teaching. They caved in to abortion enthusiast Jennifer Granholm and ex-nun Agnes Mansour (who left her order rather than conform to the Church's pro-life teaching) in spite of Cardinal Maida's request last week that they remove Granholm from their auction.

Many Mercy alumni, parents, and donors are upset and are pulling their funding from Mercy, but the media says that only a fringe group of intolerant extremist Catholics oppose Granholm at Mercy.

You can prove them wrong by standing in prayer with hundreds of area Catholics outside of Mercy's auction THIS SATURDAY!!!

A prayer vigil will occur from 5-7 on Saturday, this Saturday, February 22nd, outside Mercy High School, at the Northeast corner of 11 Mile Road and Middlebelt in Farmington Hills. See the directions below.

The event will be peaceful, legal, and respectful, but firm in defending Church teaching at Catholic educational institutions. All you have to do is show up dressed warmly.

Mom's and daughters should especially consider participating. Young ladies and gentlemen from Mercy and other Catholic schools...Ladywood, Marian, Regina, Notre Dame Prep, Gabriel Richard, etc., should wear their letter jackets and call Mercy to account for their preferring abortion advocates to Cardinal Maida. Teens who are home schooled are encouraged to come as well. Non-Catholic brothers and sisters and all people of good will should join this important event to support the sanctity of human life.

Directions: 696 to Orchard Lake Road Exit. Turn (South) on Orchard Lake Road. Turn Left (West) on 11 Mile Road, and travel West for one mile to Middlebelt.

Don't park at Mercy! Park nearby wherever you can find a spot.

When: Feb. 22, 2003, from 5:00 - 7:00 PM
Place: Mercy High School
29300 Eleven Mile Road
Farmington Hills, Michigan

Please spread the word! And we'll see you there!
