CAROL : HEADS UP ...
HEADS UP
NEW PLAN BY CARDINAL O'MALLEYS TEAM
According to sources within CORPORATION SOLE OFFICES { RCAB or Pastoral Care Center):
They refer to this plan … as CLEARING THE DECKS ( a vague echo similar to the ‘final solution’) regarding the troublesome issue of priests’ stipends, insurance, alleged accusations etc etc …. bottom line MONEY !
The enforcers are the familiar suspects ….
Rev Tom Foley ‘86 … former V.F. and pastor of St Ann’s Neponset …
{Now ‘pastured’ by one Rev.Sean Connor 2001 , former ‘spec delegate’ delegate to Card S ’O’Malley + Rev. John Connolly ’94 { allegedly no longer in that office but now pastor of St. Brendan’s {a stone-throw from St. Ann’s where Fr. Connolly has chosen to reside with his former work--mate Fr. Sean Connor + Connolly also keeps offices at St. Brendan’s + (it seems) at the Sole offices* … all a cozy arrangement of people engaged in Ecclesiastical Musical Offices … they all exchange positions and titles with Fr. Foley … ????
ENTER a new team-mate, Mr. Mark Dunderdale to the 'team' … Mr. Dunderdale is a resident of Marshfield, the birth-home of Fr. Connor who once seasonally POLICED the summer crowd before donning the priestly stole (once a policeman always a policeman??) … Mr. Dunderdale now conveniently adds CIVIL AUTHORITY to the Corp Sole* interests having formerly been an ADA from Plymouth (now he is civil authority housed within the Church main offices {Sounds like Poland before Solidarity) …. Causes one to question …
How many employers does Mr. Dunderdale have or for that matter WHO is the ‘Master’ of any of the above … the scriptures warn : “Man Can not serve two MASTERS!"
All of the above is somewhat reminiscent of the old Abbot + Costello shtick of ‘who’s on first?’ …
Back to “CLEAR THE DECKS”
According to this unnamed Corp source …
Priests are being visited and/or summoned for several possible reasons …
According to how the Cardinal’s people have categorized them …
* recently three who were so visted dropped dead … {Frs. Johnson, Bolduc + Thomson)
1) The Accused: All are being warned that once again all their names are being published in the ‘Media-Court’ viz., the Press … heads up or off ???
2) The Accused + disabled/retired :
Your next move is a secure facility (Where???) being built …
3) Some will be advised to seek laicization …
4)All will be informed that their insurance ect. sustenance $$ will suffer some severe changes along with significant reduction in their monthly allowance
DOES ANY OF THIS SOUND LIKE SOMETHING JESUS WOULD DO ?

Fr Gary was there for my family when we lost our daughter.
I have never met a more compassionate man. He left his parish to help out at another and this is how we met him.
I followed him to St Martha's just to hear his Mass at Christmas. He did not disappoint me.
If these reports are true I will be shocked but to stop the investigation is wrong. If these men are guilty or innocent we should know the truth. I am sure the accusers also want their stories to be told. Please do us a service and give us the truth.
