Bishop Responds to St. Paul Suit - Technology - RedOrbit:

"Bishop Thomas J. Rodi says he is deeply saddened by a lawsuit filed by more than 100 members of Holy Family Parish, formerly St. Paul Parish in Pass Christian. The suit, filed May 1, names Rodi, the Diocese of Biloxi and Holy Family pastor the Rev. Dennis Carver as defendants.

The bishop declined an interview Friday, but his official response, 900-plus words, was published in Friday's edition of the Gulf Pine Catholic, the diocese's official newspaper. We reprint it with permission today at the Sun Herald Web site.

The lawsuit asks the court to compel the diocese to rebuild the church on the beach and get an accounting of donations made to the church after Hurricane Katrina."
