Is the Pentagon trying to destroy morale amongst our military with their budget cuts?
Navy cancels Catholic Masses at area bases while other religious services continue
In a cost-cutting move, the Navy is canceling many religious service contracts, disproportionately affecting Catholics
SAN DIEGO Catholic Masses at San Diego-area Navy bases have ended because the Navy, in what it says is a cost-cutting move, has declined to renew its contracts with Catholic priests, and there are not enough Catholic chaplains on active duty to fill the void.
Protestant services on bases, which are led by active duty chaplains, will continue, said Brian ORourke, a Navy Region Southwest spokesman.
The changes to the Navys religious ministries are part of a national realignment announced on Aug. 20. It is unclear how many priests this will affect.
