It seems to me the misappropriation of money to pay for the defense of an
accused child predator should get a lot more press. Shouldn't we be rallying
against this and getting the word out that we do not expect our contributions from the past, present or future to defend child predators.
Where is our compassion for the victim here? We need to be people of our
convictions and stand up very loudly against this disingenuous "loan". At the very lease I urge my fellow Catholics to call Archbishop John G. Vlazny today and share your thoughts on this. 503-234-5334. Sincerely,

Fr. Roy spoke to a crowd of over 200 in Portland, OR. He gave hope to the Catholic Church with his attitude of inclusion towards women in the church.
