May 22, 2005 - Chancellor's Statement Refutes Council of Parishes
Charge On Special Collections
Chancellor David W. Smith said, "The Archdiocese takes up special collections
for many purposes including support for our clergy. Each one of those collections
is remitted exactly as we represent it will be. Both the Archdiocese of Boston
and the clergy funds are audited on an annual basis and at no time have any
of the audit firms raised any questions whatsoever about our handling of these
funds. With regards to the lawsuits, we will respond appropriately through
legal channels."
