PhuturePriest Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 http://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/lifeteen_founder_msgr._dale_fushek_excommunicated/ Phoenix, Ariz., Dec 16, 2008 / 07:23 pm (CNA).- Bishop of Phoenix Thomas J. Olmsted has issued a decree of excommunication to Monsignor Dale Fushek, founder of LifeTeen, and Father Mark Dippre for their establishment of and leadership in an "opposing ecclesial community." Very unfortunate, but knowing what I do about LifeTeen, I'm not exactly surprised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhuturePriest Posted June 13, 2015 Author Share Posted June 13, 2015 Very weird. This is apparently a very old news article, but it came up in CNA's Facebook feed as if it had just happened recently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
He is Risen! Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 I remember Bishop Olmstead from when he was in Wichita, he was faithful and it was sad to see him leave for AZ. I know that this decision was probably made very prayerfully and wisely. Still though, a sad thing, I hadn't heard about this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

veritasluxmea Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 Yes, unfortunately the poor man has not be reconciled with the Church yet. He lives in Phoenix as a non-Catholic. Fortunately LifeTeen has done well (better?) without him and has an excellent board of directors like Fr Christ Martin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dominicansoul Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 I don't get how excommunication works on priests, but they are still priests forever, correct? ...such a very sad story, they need so many prayers... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sacrament of Holy Orders has an indelible mark upon the soul, so yes, they are still priests no matter what. They've just lost their faculties and have been separated from the Church.
