As I'm sure you're all aware, Bishop Galante (and undoubtedly, his entourage) met with parishioners at Assumption Church in Wildwood Crest just tonight and the meeting was a great success. Apparently Galante got an earful, and may God bless the courage and conviction of the souls at Assumption Parish! Take heart! Keep praying, picketing, and speaking the truth. We must save our holy Faith and our precious Catholic culture, and we will succeed. As Father Romanowski says, "The Lord wills it." There will be more to come with regard to the meeting tonight. Anyone who was there who'd like to submit information, feel free to email me: info@savestmarys.net
PS: I have word from an old friend who is a teacher at one of our diocese's Catholic schools. Actually she isn't old, she's only 31, but you know what I mean. Anyhow, she reports that morale is very low with regard to the bishop at her school and others. Interestingly, the sense at the school she teaches at, which is fairly large, is that Bishop Galante is anti-Catholic education. Well surely this is not the first time he will have been accused of that. Bishop Galante really isn't racking up the votes for the Most Popular Bishop of the Camden Diocese, is he? Not that being a bishop is about being popular, but I haven't heard a positive word about him yet. Not even from my saintly and unassuming neighbors, the ones from Malta or the Italian-Americans. (On each side of my house I am blessed with pious Catholics.) Even my neighbor who is in her eighties--a daily mass-goer and a woman who visits her husband's grave every morning, a woman with a little shrine to St. Jude in her backyard--even she doesn't like him. And her church isn't closing. Amazing. I fail to see any base of support whatsoever.
