Matt and I talked about occasional updates on the Archdiocese of Milwaukee, so here's a try. With any luck, new guy Joshua Dieterich will want to cover this, and I'm never averse to having other people doing the work.
At the Chancery:
Latest Living Our Faith Radio Show is on
Fighting Human Trafficking.
"Join Archbishop Listecki as he chats with the leaders of the Franciscan Peacemakers ministry."
At Catholic ID, video on
Loving Enemies
In the Catholic Herald:
Tracy Rusch reported
Catholic Charities may house unaccompanied minors. "Fr. Bergner said they [Catholic Charities Milwaukee] have identified three potential sites – two former schools and a former office complex – where children could be temporarily housed... ."
She also reported
Pro-life advocate loses round in court; "...Milwaukee County Judge William Sosnay ruled in favor of the injunction filed against Daniel Miller Dec. 17, 2013, by Alan Keltner, a volunteer escort for Affiliated Medical Services."
In the Herald of Hope column, Bishop Richard J. Sklba writes on
Friendly voices, welcoming smiles, parish secretaries as examples of evangelization.
A few behind what's available at his website, the column by Ron Rolheiser, OMI, is on
Suicide – Reclaiming the Memory of our Loved One. "What needs to be said over and over again about suicide?" (Hint: It's not what's in the
Catechism at 2280-2283.)
Around the parishes:
Still Summer, so still more
parish festivals
At No Spin Homilies, Father Dan Volkert's for the
18th Sunday in Ordinary time
In U.S. Bankruptcy Court (E.D. Wis.):

Any more lunches honoring Archbishop Weakland?
Maybe they should have a roast, with Father Eschweiler taking the Red Buttons role: "Honorary degrees, endowed chairs, a bronze bust and plaque, paid off his boyfriend, a building named after him...but he never got a luncheon!"
And I've found a venue.
Commenting on Archbishop Weakland's sex scandal and resignation, Father Richard John Neuhaus noted in his column in the August 2002 issue of First Things, "With embarrassed haste, the sponsors of the annual Cardinal Bernardin Award for distinguished church leadership, an award closely associated with Commonweal, canceled the June gala at which it was to be bestowed upon Rembert Weakland."
They could reschedule him for next year's award.
