PORTSMOUTH.

EGAN

Bishop Pat,

The events of the PRF and whether it is safe from being raided are not yet ended, your recent blog entries about this subject have missed out several interesting mysteries.

Why have the trustees of the Portsmouth Diocese not been shown the letter from the Charity Commission addressed to them and received by the £100,000 a year COO and Bishop Egan in February, they both received the letter and have denied that they have any such letter but it has been seen by some high placed people who are in fear of revealing their knowledge. The reason why they have buried it is because it contains strong criticisms of them and the trustees, and how they have taken over the Priests Retirement Fund, in particular they are criticised for not consulting with the priests and treating the two lay people who resigned very badly. They are told to go off and get some training in conflict management amongst other guidance. It is a very strongly worded letter and they went mental when they read it. They have used their very highly paid London based solicitors to manipulate events and have only showed the trustees the solicitors’ letters. Cover ups always are the way tyrants are found out, lets hope that happens soon.

Why did the £100,00 a year COO publicly state that she had no agenda when taking over the PRF, only to order one month later 1) an immediate change in the policy for means assessments, 2) to suggest that the diocese would not pay any residential care home fees (when the priest cannot pay) and 3) to start to sell off PRF capital assets and use for the recurring annual costs of looking after retired priests so that the diocese doesnt have to foot the bill – that of course allows her to continue to spend diocesan money on the projects she and Bishop Egan want to fund rather than looking after the retired priests. But as anyone with basic knowledge of finances knows, that will only happen until the capital runs out – maybe in 4 years time, by then no properties for retired priests, no PRF assets and no way of paying for rents income grants and residential care. But by then both of them will have gone leaving someone else to start again. A real scandal that if the people in the pews who donated knew would lead to some serious questioning, but they have secrecy as their middle names and at the moment are confident they can get away with it.

Many priests in the diocese are now worried about their future retirement provision, are we returning to Fr Ted in the attic days having been the leader in the care and support of our retired priests we now look like we are winning the race to the bottom.

FATHER TONY CASHMAN RIP

FATHER TONY CASHMAN

Bishop Pat,

Tony Cashman, who was a priest for many years in Portsmouth Diocese. He inspired many people including those who tuned into local radio and TV in the South of England. He had an extraordinary ability to communicate the Good News of Jesus Christ as the Way the Truth and the Life.

He then met and fell in love with a woman, and they eventually married. After many years of married blissfulness, his wife died three years ago.

Tony requested Bishop Philip Egan to return to part-time ministry in his beloved parish of St. Joseph’s Basingstoke. His request received widespread support from the diocese clergy and the people who knew him. But the despotic Bishop Egan of Portsmouth refused the request and did not even meet with Tony.

He and many others were saddened by the lack of love, forgiveness, and compassion.

What a contradictory church we have. We have some wonderful married priests of the Ordinariate while people like Tony cannot minister to people who love them just because they married. It is well beyond time that this issue was seriously addressed by the Church.

We are the laughingstock of the world with the ridicule of our own members
Tony’s Funeral is on Wednesday 26 April.

PAT SAYS,

From the perspective of this blog and its readers, Hexham and Newcastle and Portsmouth are in absolutely appalling condition.

Apart from JPL and a few others, the big problems facing Portsmouth seem to be in the areas of governance and finance.

Basically, EGAN is the problem.

It’s hardly surprising that Egan treated Tony Cashman with such a lack of compassion.

“The nearer the Church, the further from God”.

I don’t know why this blog is so mean to the Bishop of Portsmouth. As someone in the pews in the diocese he is a very welcome change to his predecessor. Change happens slowly but my own parish has greatly changed (for the better) in the past few years, guided by the pastoral letters from the bishop. On the few times I have met him he has come across as a shy, pastoral, caring bishop. Other parishioners too have a very favourable opinion of him.

Jesus is the Son of God. He is also the perfect human being and thus for us the Way, the Truth and the Life (John 14:6). He knows and loves everyone of us without exception and on the Cross of Calvary he laid down his life for us. He desires through the Gospel to make us his disciples and to incorporate us into the life of His Body, the Church. Filled with love, His Heart inspires all of us to reach out in love to our neighbour, especially to the poor and the needy, so that everyone may come to happiness and salvation.

It is not acceptable to many more that a priest who scandalously ran off with his housekeeper!!! should be allowed back.

Get rid of him with immediate effect!

The lawsuit charges that Stika impeded an investigation into the allegation that former seminarian Wojciech Sobczuk sexually assaulted the lawsuit’s plaintiff, who worked as an organist at the Diocese of Knoxville’s cathedral.
The suit also alleges that:
“Stika falsely stated at a General Priest Meeting at Cathedral Hall in Knoxville, Tennessee on May 25, 2021 that Plaintiff was a predator who had victimized Sobczuk. Plaintiff did not discover that Stika had made these statements until December 2022, when they were disclosed by a witness who attended the meeting and heard Stika utter those statements.”
It adds that:
“Stika falsely stated at an annual priest convocation held in Gatlinburg, Tennessee on June 8, 2021 that Plaintiff had groomed Sobczuk. Plaintiff did not discover that Stika had made these statements until December 2022, when they were disclosed by a witness who attended the meeting and heard Stika utter those statements.”
In January, The Pillar confirmed with multiple sources in attendance at the May and June 2021 meetings that Stika had framed Sobczuk as the victim of sexual assault, rather than the perpetrator.
Stika himself admitted the allegations in the April 11 filing, which was obtained by The Pillar.

I would prefer to be more educated or more rounded (as I would like) rather than in sheer ignorance or stupidity.
Diocese of Dublin took big advantage of Ballymun parish cos they were working class and hadn’t a good or proper education etc. Consequences of Rcc bishop’s decision/s is to DUMP any bad or abusers priests into any working class area. They wouldn’t dare to send it to a rich or quite wealthy parish cos it’s the money that Speaks for itself. That instance for example, rcc demonstrated the total contempt for any working class parishes literally. Ballymun was just next door to Cabra as we heard it directly.
Saw that cbs school in cabra took our advantage away-less knowledge, less awareness, less education et al.
Education is the key to beat rcc at their own game. The more you learn about rcc’s wiles, ways, means, duplicity and their methods. Then you are up for it when ready etc.
Learned this from huge Cbra experience plus John gillespie talks in hotels instead of church. In other words, Late John gillespie was blacklisted and banned etc from rcc. He just preached that rcc priests or bishops didnt want to know or heard.
Finally would you prefer to be in a constant state of ignorance or get yourself educated as regards to rcc itself.

It really is tragic when the wrong man is appointed. It’s so unjust for someone to assume an office, which gives them authority over other people, which is then misused.
We’ve seen on this blog alone how Bishop Egan has made terrible decisions and lacks proper judgement (ordained JPL – someone thrown out of seminary more than once and two other bishops refused to ordain. Plus, Bishop Egan was a spiritual director to JPL in seminary so must have known about his struggles).
Bishop Egan has made all kinds of questionable appointments too when we look at what some of his senior clergy have been up to (including a former Cathedral Administrator and other Canons with ‘special friends’). He is obviously prepared to turn a blind-eye to some with ‘particular friendships’.
Bishop Egan has lacked compassion and understanding (hasn’t even responded to JPL victims, plural) and he is ready to cover up abuse (ICCSA enquiry and housing JPL in church property in which he assaults men, and gives them alcohol and illegal Class A drugs).
Bishop Egan mismanages finances (Portsmouth is in huge financial trouble despite Bishop Hollis leaving him a fortune!). The Diocese is currently running at a £5 million annual loss (growing year on year) and yet they continue to advertise for unnecessary posts offering ridiculous amounts of money and benefits. (Have a look at what’s on offer on the Diocesan website!) These people then take the ‘exciting job opportunities’ and leave within 6 months owing to the COO’s lack of professionalism (the prescribed conflict management wold be very useful) and the chaos which is the Portsmouth Diocese.
Bishop Egan is ready to hand over much of his authority to a COO who has limited understanding of how a Diocese opperates and who fails to have any interest in what a Diocese is.
The COO is the biggest part of Portsmouth’s plight and is paid an eye-watering amount of church money. Bishop Egan then thinks it is a good idea to ordain the COO’s son, which is an unwise decision given the horrendous breakdown in relationship between the clergy and the COO.
We’ve seen how dishonest Bishop Egan is regarding the PRF and the Schools building fund, and there will be more to come out, for sure. Now we learn how he is hiding a sensoriais letter that all the trustees should have read as they and their decisions are heavily criticised and brought into question.
Although Bishop Egan only has 6 years left before retirement he has drawn-up a TEN year plan to enable him to self off church property to raise money to pay off his growing debts! In his plan he intends to reduce perishes, reduce the number of Parish Priests – meaning fewer can stand in his way – merge bank accounts and centralise everything (in true NHS style) in Portsmouth.
He plans to force psychological therapy upon his clergy and to label the rebellious ones – to be announced at a clergy gathering in June. (We await an update!)
We heard last week that a senior and very experienced former Vicar General admitted that he has spoken personally to Bishop Egan about other unethical decisions and the breakdown in trust that is further eroded by these unethical decisions. The fact this former VG felt pressed into sharing this information in itself speaks volumes.
The priests of the Diocese are being mistreated by a man abusing an office he should never have been appointed to. This truly is unjust and deeply frustrating and is causing untold damage to the Diocese).
Bishop Egan keeps demanding obedience and reminds priests during every homily that they promised respect and obedience to him (and it’s a warped understanding of obedience Bishop Egan has too).
All-in-all it’s a very sad state of affairs and it would be a tragedy for this situation to be allowed to continue.
Where will it all end???

Know a woman who brought her 2 sons to him cos they refused to eat. It’s a nightmare for any mother. It took one session with him cos she came from USA with Irish roots. Then her 2 sons began to eat slowly before back to full.
In my case I was struggling spiritually at the start. He went to the root of matter which it left me surprised. But it made a lot of sense now when I look back. I’m not struggling spiritually noe as its stable.
Invisible spirit woke me up early morning when I was in at risk of slept out but I was fine and fresh before I went down to meet him in a hotel. I believe it’s down to him.
He taught us what rcc don’t teach, lost treasures of early church how to get your prayers answered along with various tips if you are blocked in terms of spirituallly.
Thats where people flock to him for healing and prayers/advice etc. It doesn’t happen overnight.
There was 2 concerns I had with him was
1. His claims that he had 9 gifts of HS. No proof which had me doubting him.
2. I wanted to be objective and rigorous re his claims of healing etc. Would need to know names of people that I or we could check their claim of healing with proof or medical evidence.
Thats the main problem with his book, no names, just stories of healings which bordered on sensational. I have to be cautious especially when it comes to sensational ones.
His prayers worked as I tried it on myself, blood leaks stopped then I got a text from him saying its my faith, nothing to do with him. It’s that concept of faith that I’m interested as rcc don’t teach that.
He wrote 2 books. Last time I met him was 5 weeks before he passed away. On that occasion, he wasn’t himself as I saw something wasn’t right.

The bishops tend to be pretty vindictive towards priests who marry and are seen to have taken their hand from the plough. There is rarely, if ever, a way back for them. So, it is no surprise to me that Cashman wasn’t given any kind of welcome return to ministry. There are many married priests in this position. Remember, + Elsie was incandescent with rage at Kieran Conry for letting the side down, and made sure that he was cast out in to the farthest regions. There will have been no love lost there. All + Elsie and the other bishops are interested in is maintaining the status quo and the reputation of the Church, clergy and bishops. That is their main concern in all things, and it plays out in every single way and in everything they do. It is what was at the base of the abuse scandal. They are still doing it. If you piss off + Elsie, she has the acerbic lines and looks of the real Elsie from Corrie. However, her time will come, and soon she will be on her way to the retirement pad in Chiswick. Then she will feel the chill cold wind of no longer being in power or having influence. There will be many who will have little compassion or pity for her. What goes around comes around.

Dear Lord, we thank You for the gift that bishops are to the Church. We ask You to bless all bishops as they carry out the work of leading Your Church.

The work of the bishops in Your Church is often difficult, and bishops face many problems as they try to lead Your people faithfully. Some bishops must deal with a lot of division among the people of their diocese over many issues, and bishops must rely on Your help to navigate through such division.

We ask You to assist all bishops of Your Church, and we particularly ask today that You help all bishops who are dealing with problems of division in their diocese!

Help us to rely on You in every difficulty we face in our lives. Help us to serve You more faithfully each day.

And I especially ask in this novena (mention your intentions here).

Lord, hear our prayers!

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.

Amen.
