In reply to the discussion: 'Pay-to-pray': Trump reportedly charging supporters $100,000 to attend church service with him [View all]ancianita
(39,069 posts)30. Of course it's an interfaith Mammon worship service. St. Joseph's Catholic Church on Capitol Hill would not

Feucht's event is reportedly being hosted at St. Joseph's Roman Catholic Church on Capitol Hill. However, the Rev. William H. Gurnee, who is the pastor at St. Joseph's, insisted that he hadn't given Feucht permission to use his church.
"While I was asked to host the event, I informed the organizer that I needed more information and it was mistakenly reported that final permission was granted," Gurnee told RNS. "It is my feeling that this event would be better hosted at another location."

Like all Catholic churches without exception, they celebrate the sacrifice of the Mass only. That's it and that's all.

Like Black Hand extortionist Don Fanucci (Godfather II), Trump just wants to wet his beak.

Oh, that's what Cardinal Dolan meant by saying Trump takes his Christian faith seriously.

My question: Why are these "fees" to occupy a space with him called donations?
