Cardinal Wuerl Defends Father Shaffer

Dawn Eden gave a first-hand account of a homily delivered by Cardinal Wuerl yesterday during Mass at St Stephen Martyr Church in Washington DC.  That church is the parent parish of the GW chaplaincy.  Father Shaffer and two former GW chaplains were concelebrating the Mass.  I won't go into all the details; I'll leave it to you to read Dawn's account.

I am encouraged to learn of this.  Father Shaffer is a fine priest and it's good to see his brother priests - and his bishop - rallying to his aid.

UPDATE: The Cardinal has posted his homily on his blog.  Thanks to my anonymous commenter from 7:50pm for alerting.  My link is "clickable".
