Bishop does sponsored hang-glide for charity?
Does the Diocese of Minnesota have the money to pay for group psychotherapy after this visual trauma?

I feel the Spirit moving in me. More like churning, actually.
Forget the simply awful vestment - what part of the liturgy/mass involves twirling and flashing?
