Archbishop Demands Control of Catholic Parish’s Assets, Property
This just goes to show just how unchristian the Catholic Church’s hierarchy is…

In an archdiocesan newspaper published Friday, [St. Louis Archbishop Raymond] Burke said the Rev. Marek Bozek and St. Stanislaus Kostka’s six lay directors committed an act of schism when the board hired Bozek, who Burke said left another diocese without his bishop’s permission.

“It saddens me, in particular, to address such a deep wound to the church in our archdiocese in these days of our final preparation for the celebration of the birth of our Lord on Christmas,” Burke wrote.

He said it was necessary, however, because Bozek planned to celebrate Christmas Eve Mass. Mass has not been celebrated since Easter at the parish, which saw its priests removed last year.
