On the business agenda
Evaluation of "An Evening with Fr. Donald Cozzens": 28 of the brothers attended and though no new ground was broken it was a good event. We did get some ink in the Catholic Herald.
We spent a considerable amount of time discussing a response to Fr. Paul Hartmann's letter to the Priests' Rights Group requesting that our flyer on protecting your rights as a priest be made more canonically correct. He claimed that there are a number of inaccuracies in the flyer as sent out.
The discussion focused on Fr. Mike Sturm's point that since the membership voted acceptance of the flyer at a General Meeting this now belonged to the Alliance and not to the Priests' Rights Focus Group.
There was some consensus that our flyer was not meant to be a canonical document but a guide to help priests.
Our discussion was inconclusive and we did not agree on whether or how to respond to Fr. Hartmann.
In the committee reports, the attempt to co-opt younger priests is going slowly.
Generations of Priests -- Ken Mich sent out email and had only two responses. He will continue to pursue the topic.
