I think this is the best response I have heard yet for the Notre Dame scandal…that the graduates not show up at their graduation. What a stand for life, and for the faith that would be!
Continue to pray for Fr Jenkins, who by his acts has brought such scandal on the church and on Notre Dame…
"Hundreds of thousands of Catholics, hundreds of priests, and
dozens of bishops have called upon Notre Dame to end this scandal by withdrawing
its invitation to President Obama. The result of that demand is not in our
control. But one final response to this scandal is fully in the control of each
graduating senior: don’t show up. Don’t participate in an event
which will only serve to obscure rather than highlight the Church’s pro-life
teaching and the true spirit of Notre Dame. Instead, come to the Class of 2009
Vigil for Life. The seniors who do this are manifesting the real meaning of
commencement: they are carrying out the witness to truth and service
that their hard-earned degrees have prepared them to give in the world.” Fr Frank Pavone
