Following dismissal vote, Bourgeois says Maryknoll's tone different


Following dismissal vote, Bourgeois says Maryknoll's tone different

NCR
The tone of discussion between the Maryknoll Fathers and Brothers and Fr. Roy Bourgeois, a priest who has been threatened with excommunication and removal from the order for his support of women's ordination, has seemingly changed direction. The priest says a June 6 meeting between his superior general and him saw no discussion of his removal and instead focused on a discussion of the rights of conscience of Catholics.
