Priest in Fashion Crisis
Dear Priests in Crisis readers,
Please help Father Cory Sticha get a decent biretta and vestments to go along with it. To restore a sense of the sacred in his neck of the woods (Montana), please consider helping Father buy a chalice and other altar ware worthy of Our Lord. If we all pitch in, we can reach the $12,000 goal in no time!
Please click here to visit Father’s blog Laudet Dominum and make your donation.
Thanks!

RIP Fr. Dennis Rocheford
Priest jumps off bridge in Rhode Island
In our grief, it is comforting to think that a loved one’s soul is automatically in heaven. That judgment is God’s alone. Let’s do Father Rocheford the long-term favor of continuing to pray for his soul and ours.

Priests in Crisis Site Upgrade
Hello Friends,
I just wanted to let you know that I’ll be upgrading the Priests in Crisis site this week. What does this mean for you?
- You may see some crazy formatting until I smooth everything out
- You will see a whole new design
- You may notice some broken links if you bookmarked any of them previously
- You may receive email notice or an RSS duplicate of a post you’ve seen already
- You may notice missing posts because I am removing anything that isn’t helpful to Priests in Crisis
I am doing my best to make the transition as smooth as possible, so thanks for your patience!
Suzanne

Fr. Richard John Neuhaus 1936-2009
Fr. Richard John Neuhaus 1936-2009
by Joseph Bottum, First Things
Our great, good friend is gone.
Fr. Richard John Neuhaus slipped away today, January 8, shortly before 10 o’clock, at the age of seventy-two. He never recovered from the weakness that sent him to the hospital the day after Christmas, caused by a series of side effects from the cancer he was suffering. He lost consciousness Tuesday evening after a collapse in his heart rate, and soon after, in the company of friends, he died.
My tears are not for him—for he knew, all his life, that his Redeemer lives, and he has now been gathered by the Lord in whom he trusted.
I weep, rather for all the rest of us. As a priest, as a writer, as a public leader in so many struggles, and as a friend, no one can take his place. The fabric of life has been torn by his death, and it will not be repaired, for those of us who knew him, until that time when everything is mended and all our tears are wiped away.
Funeral arrangements are still being planned; information about the funeral will be made public shortly. Please accept our thanks for all your prayers and good wishes.
In Deepest Sorrow,
Joseph Bottum
Editor

What the terrorists couldn’t destroy
and the Priest they couldn’t silence
