Ave Maria University Offers $5k Annual Scholarships to Students Recommended by Priests
Ave Herald ^ | 2-28-2010 | staff

Posted on 02/28/2010 11:48:42 AM PST by Notwithstanding

Father Dennis Cooney, pastor of St. Raphael's Parish in Lehigh Acres, is delighted that two students from his parish will be attending Ave Maria University this fall. He's even more delighted that each of them will receive a minimum of $5,000 in financial aid through a new program started by the university called Priests for Ave Maria.

The PFAM program, as it is known, is part of an effort to involve more priests in the mission of Ave Maria University, and to help recruit students for the university, according to AMU Chancellor Tom Monaghan, who came up with the initial concept.

Not perfect, but not a jacka$$ either. Maybe you should contact Chris Matthews and share your thrill with him.

Your liberal buddy, Obama, made a similar comment about his grandmother.

How funny, since I consider Odumbo to be a dissaster.

But, the definition that is always consistent about Catholics at FR is that they are (1) Uptight, and (2) Angry

Come to think of it, so is Odumbo...and Muslims in general...

Thanks. I am passing it on to some Catholic guys who want to go to a good Catholic college and play football.

I received an email a couple of weeks ago that said that they are offering 24 scholarships for the upcoming year.

Sure you do.

“But, the definition that is always consistent about Catholics at FR is that they are (1) Uptight, and (2) Angry”

You seem to be the angry and uptight one here. I made one comment - a proper one - and you are going on and on about it. Who’s really angry?

“Come to think of it, so is Odumbo...and Muslims in general...”

Well, maybe you should look into becoming what you allude to. Go ahead and join your leader as a Muslim.
