Deacon Asselin Upset that WaPo Did Not Endorse Kamala

 

How does a Roman Catholic Deacon show his support for Kamala without violating the rules on politics set by the Archdiocese of Washington?  

By showing that he is not happy with the fact that the WASHINGTON comPOST was not allowed to endorse her by the Post's CEO.   

How did he do that?  With posting a link on his X account to those "reporters" and "columnists" of the WASHINGTON comPost who wanted to endorse Kamala.

Deacon Asselin Does the Political Thing

 

You got to hand it to Deacon Mark Asselin of St. Elizabeth's in Rockville, he is too smart to come out and endorse Kamala.  Former President Trump has declared that all illegal immigrants will be deported, especially those who have committed violent crimes.  

Unfortunately, it seems that Deacon Mark Asselin does not care even, when it hurts the average person.

In his latest posting on X, he talks about not deporting migrants.  Unfortunately, he does not distinguish between legal and illegal migrants.  However, he knows better.

Annual Appeal Update

An update...

 

 

 

Well, they are just under one million dollars shy of the goal of 11 million, but it has taken them almost a year.  However, the number of donors has once again decreased. 

Here were the results from previous Appeals:

The financial goal for the 2021 Annual Appeal was $11.9 million.  The amount raised was $10.3 million from just over 20,000.

 The 2020 Annual Appeal brought in $10.4 million from over 33,000 donors.

St. Thomas More (DC) in for Kamala

 

It seems that St. Thomas More Catholic Church in Washington DC is n for Kamala Harris.

During the 10am Mass, on September 29th, Fr. Moore (the pastor) called up Mary(?) who announced that for those who ordered Kamala Harris t-shirts, they could now be picked up during the after Mass gathering.  Further, if you were still interested, you could still order.  Finally, she invited the Men of St. Joseph purchase them

I thought that the word was sent out to all Priests, Religious and Deacons that there would be no politicking this election.  Guess they did not get the message or maybe they choose to ignore.

Think I am making it up, go to their YouTube website and watch the 10am Mass recording for September 29th.  Start at 1hour and 29 minutes, as it will begin at almost 1 hour and 30 minutes.
