Achbp Burke & the Polish Parish

[HagiaSophia]

ST. LOUIS (AP) – A Polish archbishop at the Vatican is intervening to try and resolve a dispute between a Polish parish and the St. Louis archdiocese, parish members said Monday.

Archbishop Szczepan Wesoly (pronounced SCHEP’-ahn Vee-uh-SO’-wee) expressed his support in a letter in Polish dated March 4 to the board of directors at St. Stanislaus Kostka parish.

“He is suggesting the Polish Conference of Bishops get involved and wants to have a mediator mediate this dispute,” said Roger Krasnicki, a spokesman for the parish board of directors.

Wesoly wrote that the pope has proclaimed this the “Year of the Eucharist.”

“Precisely this year a bishop prohibits the participation in the sacraments, over a dispute in material matters rather than in spiritual ones,” according to a translation of Wesoly’s letter provided by St. Stanislaus member Richard Bach. “The Easter season is approaching and everything should be done to promote participation in the sacraments.”

Archdiocese spokesman Jamie Allman said Archbishop Raymond Burke “has always been open to resolving this,” but that formal mediation is not an option when canon law is in dispute.

That is kind of rediculous, a Bishop is in charge of his dioceses and that is Archbishop Burke’s responsibility, and he seems to be doing fine.

Well, actually “shche’-pan ve-so’-wee” to those of us with ties to the White Eagle.

With all the ills within the Church and the world, these disobedient foolish people should spend their time on more important things.
