Denver Archbishop Recalls "Progressive" Nuns

to Obedience to the Church:

"At a meeting of leaders of US Catholic religious orders, Denver's Archbishop Chaput has urged members to return to the principle of 'holy obedience' to the teaching and authority of the Church. The meeting, held this year in Denver, was for the Leadership Conference of Women Religious (LCWR), a group notorious among faithful Catholics for their disregard for Catholic teaching on moral and doctrinal issues, especially sexual morality.

Citing the example of saints and founders of religious orders, Archbishop Chaput called obedience the 'yardstick of love,' especially for people who have taken the three religious vows of poverty, chastity and obedience."
