After weeks of the 8th commandment on the "Homily" line, except for August 16, of course, I am a little sick of the pastor claiming victim status, saying everyone who opposes him is committing a mortal sin (most of his comments on sin are only against those who he disagrees with) and after he pushed many leaders out of the parish and imported his crew.Davisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3154580569513471740.post-70982191150296695452009-09-22T15:27:58.719-04:002009-09-22T15:27:58.719-04:00Father Murphy and friends come to a new Parish, fr...Father Murphy and friends come to a new Parish, fracture and divide its parishioners and then blame the parishioners for the resulting division.

Peace reins in the community. Another man comes into the village and in a short time spread the seeds of hate and dissension, all while spouting the words of God. When he is finished, brother is turned against brother and villager against villager. The ignorant spew hateful words against the parents of the children and the just man is ground into the gutter.

Bringing his loyal outsiders from Parish to Parish and ignoring his own parishioners is most assuredly not what the Diocese wants. Unfortunately Father Murphy has once again proven himself incapable of building or sustaining a Parish. Just like Holy Child Jesus, a fractured parish is left is his wake.

I think it’s very traditional to accept the authority of the Pastor given by the Bishop. You are traditional, right? So maybe it’s time for you to start practicing what you preach. Time will tell what God has in mind for St Saviours. We can’t presume to know what that is but it’s simple to understand He expects us to help not resist, to build up not tear down. So, if you're looking for a spiritual home,try St. Saviours! Come, see for yourself.

Once a month is Hospitality Sunday at St Saviours. Coffee after the morning masses and wine and cheese after the Jazz mass Sunday evening. Vibrant, joyful liturgies, engaging homilists, hospitality, inclusivity and God’s love for us – that’s what Fr Murphy has brought to St. Saviours.

However, this does not negate in any way the horrible way that Mr. Flanagan was treated. This mistreatment and Fr.

Something new that might fit your needs. There’s a JAZZ mass every Sunday evening at 5pm. The family mass is at 10am. 3 more masses at 8:30 and 11:30, Sunday and 5pm, Saturday. Come, if you’ve been away from church for a while. Come, if you seek authenticity. Come, see for yourself. joanmooreJoanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16384853690089015997noreply@blogger.com
