Georgetown Visitation Prep School is officially CINO

I knew it was only a matter of time that "Visi" would do this.  Most of the religious order is gone at the school.     When visiting the school about 10 years ago, I did not hear a mention of Catholic teaching except for the term "social justice."  Shame on Visitation.  

Georgetown Visitation Preparatory School, a Catholic girls’ high school in the nation’s capital, has spurred controversy by announcing it will begin highlighting same-sex “marriages” among other news in the school’s alumnae magazine.

“The Church is clear in its teaching on same-sex marriages. But, it is equally clear in its teaching that we are all children of God, that we each have dignity and are worthy of respect and love,” Sister Mary Berchmans, president emerita of the school, wrote in a letter early May, the Daily Caller reported. “As I have prayed over this contradiction, I keep returning to this choice: we can focus on Church teaching on gay marriage or we can focus on Church teaching on the Gospel commandment of love.

Unfortunately, Sr. Mary seems to forget that you need to call out the sin and not to honor it.  She honors it and is just another reason why her order is shrinking each and every year.
