Father Phillips, founder of the Canons Regular of St. John Cantius, pastor of St. John Cantius Roman Catholic Church on Carpenter St. in Chicago ,who on Palm Sunday , 2018 was ordered from his pulpit to house arrest , who was denied the right to say a public Mass, administer the Sacraments and have any contact with members of his Order or members of his parish has been completely exonerated from any wrong doing.
Cardinal Cupich of Chicago Archdiocese refuses to reenstate Fr. Phillips to any priestly duties, to his parish, to be head of the Canons Regular. He is to live in the house of the Resurrectionist Priests.
This is brute thuggery with no basis, no rationale, no justification and is solely the arbitrary decision of Cardinal Cupich. What his motives are is mere speculation and in many ways are irrelevant. However it is very clear that Cardinal Cupich’s intention is to destroy all the work of Fr. Phillips and the late Cardinal George, to destroy the order of priests and brothers of the Canons Regular and scatter the flock of St. John Cantius.
Fr. Phillips said in a confidential meeting of a few loyalists “ It is now up to the Laity to fight this.”
We, John and Gay Caswell of Brabant Lake, Saskatchewan , Canada are calling on the Faithful around the world to rally and fight this act of sheer blatant brutality and injustice. When a legal investigation is completed, when a verdict is given then one expects all parties to abide by that decision. Father Phillips is completely exonerated. Cardinal Cupich refuses to abide by that decision. Cardinal Cupich is acting under no proper authority except his own will.
On Holy Thursday the Pope washes the feet of twelve laity to remind us that the Pope is a servant as Christ is a servant. A priest wears a round collar about his neck to tell us that he is a slave to Christ and the Church.
To whom is Cardinal Cupich a servant? Certainly not to his priest Father Phillips who has served in the Chicago diocese all his life. He is not a servant of any priest , anywhere because he has just told them that your priestly duties can be pulled arbitrarily at any time whenever someone like me wants to destroy your vocation without cause.
He is not a servant to the parishioners of St. John Cantius who have been brought to the Supper of the Lamb by Fr. Phillips’ priests.
He is not a servant of those who want a living , growing Church, not a freefall into her demise.
He is not a servant of Justice, and of Truth. He appears to be a servant of himself, of his will, his prejudices and his desires.
Christ’s Church is under attack. Her priests are under attack. Please do what you can to defend Her and them. Please pass this on to any media contacts and clerical authorities , friends and families. St. Michael defend us. Gay

Free Fr. McCrae Now!
JMJ
April 17,2018
Fr. Gordon McCrae is in New Hampshire State Prison serving a 67 year sentence for a crime that he didn’t commit. He has been there for 20 years. His story can be found in the blog : thesestonewalls.com
. Fr McCrae ws working with youth who were involved with drugs. Like other youth on drugs , his accuser needed money to support his habit. Therefor he began fundraising by a series of false accusations about Father and about others . These series of accusations were investigated and quickly dismissed. Then an overzealous detective became involved. He became obsessed . This detective offered huge sums of money and ordered written statements. Eventually the detective’ passion to nail a priest bore poison fruit. Without any witnesses , without any corroboration Fr. McCrae was convicted of alleged sexual abuse of a minor. Father, to this day , claims that he is innocent. If he had lied about his actions and pretended that he was guilty he could have got off with a one year sentence.
Fr. McCrae is not without allies. Dorothy Rabinowitz of The Wall Street Journal wrote a series of articles on his trial pointing out the irregularities and absurdities of the unjust proceeding. The late Fr. Richard John Neuhaus took up his cause as did the late Cardinal Avery Dulles. So you have distinguished, influential people like Neuhaus and Cardinal Dulles, you have a Pulitzer Prize winner of an internationally known and ultra respected Wall Street Journal giving you sympathetic and thorough coverage and you’re still in prison. Why?
You have Bill Donahue of the Catholic Rights League championing your case. Still you are in your stone walls.
In addition Fr. McCrae has become an award winning writer who is read and known throughout the world. He has a reputation consistent with Alexander Solzhenitzyn who was free to live in his home land, Russia. So why is Fr. McCrae “ in the home of the brave and the land of the free “ still in prison?
The reason is he is a priest. A priest is hated with a special hatred by the Nazis in the concentration camps, by the Communists in the Gulag and by the infidels of America In Canada as long as it is a priest that is accused some people are willing to believe anything. Witness how all usual due process was suspended in the Residential School Scam.
Twenty years is enough. Christians have a living martyr. The Anti- Christians have their bogus example. Free Father McCrae now.
