Congratulations! You Have Just Been Excommincated

Some Background

According to the Spring 2008 newsletter of the Rochester, NY, Catholic Worker House, a woman named Chava Redonnet is preparing to exercise her ministry at the Rochester Catholic Worker as a “priest” once she is “ordained”. Many of the leaders of this Rochester house who are good people, have unfortunately been led away from the Catholic Church by Fr. James Callan’s breakaway (here) Spiritus Christi Church (here) here in Rochester. It looks like a trend, unfortunately.

I know a few women that constantly complain about not being able to become priests- I find the whole thing quite bizarre- Thank God because their behavior even when not complaining about it- they are not priest like much less Christ like... we must be in end times.
