  • Fr. Norman Weslin is an 80 year old priest and retired Air Force Colonel, he's been arrested many times in the past during pro-life demonstrations but now he was wrapped-up and dragged off with his hands bound behind his back after being arrested at Notre Dame for "TRESPASSING".

  • If he persevers to the end, he may become a candidate for being canonized as a confessor. :rahrah:

    Pastor Says: 'I Saw Catholics Arrested for Being Catholic at a Catholic University' -- Notre Dame

    Contact: Catherine Rouse, Vision America, 936-560-3900, Catherine@visionamerica.us

    Link to original

    SOUTH BEND, Ind., May 15 /Christian Newswire/ -- Vision America President Pastor Rick Scarborough said he was sickened by what he saw when those protesting Obama's speech at Notre Dame were arrested on the campus.

    "I wept when I saw my friends arrested and taken to jail," Scarborough disclosed. "They almost broke the arm of a priest who appeared to be in his 80s, by dragging him on the ground."

    Scarborough, who's a Southern Baptist preacher, said he was in South Bend in solidarity with Catholics who are protesting the upcoming commencement speech at Notre Dame by the most anti-life president in history.

    "Millions of Catholics who were persecuted in their countries of origin came to these shores for religious freedom," Scarborough said. "These hard-working folk built institutions like Notre Dame to educate their children and strengthen their Church."

    "Now Notre Dame is honoring Barack Obama, a man Catholics and other Christians should shun, as many of the Catholic bishops have."

    When asked why he wasn't arrested, Scarborough explained: "This was a Catholic demonstration, As a Baptist, I had to respect that. I did not want to intrude. At the same time, I wanted to support a group of people I'm so proud of for standing up for ʝʊdɛօ-Christian morality."

    For more information on Vision America, go to www.visionamerica.us. To schedule an interview with Dr. Scarborough, contact Catherine Rouse at 936-560-3900 or Catherine@visionamerica.us

    Email from Randal Terry

    Today, Friday May 15, Dr. Alan Keyes, two Catholic Priests, and aprox. 20 other pro-lifers were arrested for walking on Notre Dame's campus with posters of the Mary. (Watch for it on Fox News or CNN - Fox was covering it live, as well as Stan Solomon on line with Web streaming.)

    The authorities have suddenly - without legal right - decided to not set bail for Dr. Keyes, and anyone else who was arrested last Friday. (This is around 10 of those arrested today.)

    Here is what I want you to do:

    1) Call Bp. D'Arcy in Fort Wayne, and beg him to intervene in this injustice. He has the authority to intervene, and tell Fr. Jenkins of Notre Dame to stop arresting fellow Catholics.

    And ask Bp. D'Arcy to come and pray with us on Saturday at 12:00 noon. Is Notre Dame going to arrest Bp. D'Arcy?

    His number is: 260-422-4611. His secretary, Moreen Shot, extension is 3321, or leave your message with another office.

    Here's some more contacts at Fort Wayne Diocese.
    Bishop D'Arcy's secretary Moreen Shot 260-422-4611 Ex. 3321

    Communication Department 260-744-0012
    Director: Vince LaBarbera
    Communication Assistant: Chris Hawkins

    Chancellor and Vicar General: Fr. Robert Schulte 260-422-4611

    2) Call your local Bishop - NOW - before the close of business on Friday, and ask him to come here to Notre Dame on Saturday, at 12 noon, to walk on campus with us.

    Is Notre Dame going to arrest a Bishop?

    Please, move quickly.

    3) If at all possible, get in your car, or get on a plane, and come and join us right now.

    Norma McCorvey, the "Jane Roe" of Roe vs. Wade, is coming in tonight to walk and pray and risk arrest tomorrow. Come and join her.

    Finally, if you can help with funds, it would be a blessing. There are bails to pay, and a lot of expenses. (The signs you will see on TV cost us nearly $1,500.) We can use help, if you are so moved.

    No matter what, pray, and call your bishop, and Bp. D'Arcy's office, and beg them to intervene.

  • This whole thing is strange, People stopping a president who is not American, and therefore not president, at a school that is has not been Catholic in years, waiting for a Pope to help that is not a Pope.
