No more alterails, no more kneelers for Holy Communion. Today begins the ban by Bishop Michael

0:12.4

Martin in Charlotte, North Carolina. And this story has been ongoing for many months. It's

0:19.0

been a controversy since the election of Pope Leo the 14th.

0:23.8

A newly appointed bishop in Charlotte, North Carolina, which is one of the healthiest and most

0:28.7

thriving dioceses in all of the United States of America, has had this huge scandal,
