How to report liturgical problems, or other problems in the Church

From Creative Minority Report, comes this comment on the blog. It was talking about problems in LA, and an especially telling incident in the gift shop. It sure does remind me of the books by Michael O'Brien. Check them out, they are Catholic fiction and extremely good.
This is helpful, if you want to know. The main complaint on the blog was about Cardinal Mahoney, who apparently is willing to have pro-life Catholics carted away from the steps if he is busy celebrating Mass with a pro-choice politician at the Cathedral.

Like I said, read the O'Brien books. Sophia House, Island of the World, Father Elijah, etc. They are eye-opening.

Here is contact information, should you ever need it. Good to clip and keep somewhere, or enter into your PDA type object.
