I read with interest about affluent Catholics holding back their church donations. I pray they are escrowing them for future purposes.

Too many individuals might use this tragic experience as a convenient excuse to not give to the church.

Our tiny parish in Northfield does so many good things that I only wish I could double my donation.

The decision of a handful of affluent Catholics should shake up the church hierarchy, but it should not be a symbolic gesture that harms the bountiful good works of Roman Catholicism.
