Yet Another attack on the parishioners of Our Lady of Lourdes

After driving away many good catholic families, the Pastor of Our Lady of Lourdes,
is now threatening to end the Latin Mass on Sundays. It wasn't enough that he had moved it to a very inconvenient time of 1:30 PM, so that less and less parishioners would attend, now he is claiming that the low collections is the reason that he wants to do away with the Latin Mass.
Why not put the mass at a convenient time like 9AM, or rotate it , as here-to-fore was the case? No, that would defeat his objective of driving the remnants of the traditional parishioners, out of Our Lady of Lourdes parish, and then claim that because of low parishioners, they must CLOSE OUR LADY OF LOURDES PARISH!
Think not? The Msgr claims to be receiving $17,000.00 every week. With the school closed, the collections should leave an excess of money, so that whatever the parishioners who attend the Latin mass give, would not make any difference.
That is the amount of money he claims to be receiving every week, according to his bulletins. Is he lying to cover up the drop in collections by the loss of parishioners, that he drove away, or is he lying in the amount of collections received each week? Much has been posted on the website :

Interesting post on the Rorate Caeli this morning.

I believe everything that could be said , has been said there.

The shame is on the people in charge, and you all know who they are!
