Why The Archbishop's Annual Appeal is Questioned by Some. Have Any Answers Regarding Why There Was Theology Degree Given to Lesbian Witch at Mt. Angel?

This is the time of year when we are asked to give our financial support behind Archdiocesan projects.
Since these are things that need to be addressed, like who makes decisions that aren't even remotely helping our Faith, can someone please start answering valid questions? 
 
We are fighting the amoral, immorality of our time.  The likes of Frodo Okulam is gaining popularity since she can "perform" marriage ceremonies and has graduated from Oregon "Catholic" institutions. 
 
Is there anyone that can help with this question?  Any suggestions as to why you don't give to the Appeal or when would you give.  If you have no problem that it welcome too, of course.
 
The links between Frodo Okulam and Ecumenical Minstries of Oregon, Metropolitan Community Church are still there.  www.oregonunitedformarriage.org  Another link between them. 
 
We are concerned that no one is minding the store.   Can you help?

Answering this question.
 
"This is not very timely, but I've been curious about something... Is Monsignor Patrick Brennan, now at Cathedral, the same one who conferred a theology degree on Frodo Okulam, lesbian witch at Metropolitan Community Church..... I was involved in some serious "investigations" during those years, and it was a smarmy mess in this Archdiocese (Levada). 
 
I wonder who vets these people !!   Brennan's tenure at Mt. Angel served to end some vocations and there was abundant scandal; and I find it difficult to believe that he is parochial vicar........ we must remember to pray, I suppose, and not fret over the past.  End of grumble."

It is just our lot in Oregon to wait until the progressive Catholics give up some of their power and then maybe we'll get a more balanced representation of when a Catholic is that Christ has determined. Right now it's pretty political and hard to break from the mould of Portlandia.

God Bless our new Archbishop and give him holy boldness.

I left my Annual Appeal letter and coupon sitting on my desk for some time. I debated between 3 options: a small donation to show my support for the Archbishop; no donation; no donation and an explanatory letter about the goofy state of affairs and my genuine fear my money would not be wisely spent.

I did nothing. I admire Abp Sample, he is a holy man. But I'm waiting to be sure he is not like his predecessor, and also has the guts to clean up the Chancery, OCP, etc.

He has done some great things. But a burnt child fears the fire, and we've got some serious blazes all over the place.

Greg your comparison to a child getting burnt is great. I have great faith in Archbishop Sample to get things done for the Oregon Church and shake loose those that would try to change her.

He is appointing some great people and things are slowly happening for the best.

Once we know that things will not be used for anti-Catholic questionable things like in the peace and justice department.

Thanks for your take on this.
