Fellow Parishioners of Holy Spirit Parish:
I know that this Lay Congress is for all Catholics throughout the Valley area. But after all that has happened at Holy Spirit Parish, I feel that it is high time that the parishioners of Holy Spirit learn what their RIGHTS are as Catholics under Canon Law.
I am so sick of being railroaded by our pastor and bishop. Christ preached against EXCLUSION and all church teachings reflect this.
Please join me in learning what rights we have to FIX OUR CHURCH under Canon Law! Our bishop and our present pastor sure are not doing anything to fix it! Sad, but we have little other choice.
Please join me on Saturday!
