Letter from Fr. Bob McConaghy of Greenbelt chapel on spiritual chainlettersHi I am Fr. Bob McConaghy of Greenbelt chapel ( Philippines ).I just want to make the point that the Catholic Church is opposed tospiritual chain letters, especially those that are rooted in the"gospel of prosperity" or God wants to make you rich and will do soif you forward such emails to 7, 12, 15 or as many names you have inyour address book. It ' s idolotrous baloney. It claims legitimatedevotion to Jesus, Mary, and or saints and frightens people to believethat if they don ' t send the letters something bad will happen tothem.I beg you please not to spread this messages anymore. I ' ve heardenough confessions in my 32 years to know how these letters fool andfrighten people and give them a false image of Our Lady, not tomention that it encourages idolatry and a magical approach toreligion. I am sure you were not aware of this and mean no illwill. There is no sin here on your part, you want good things forpeople and that is noble.In all humility I would ask you to forward this note to others.
In Christ,
Fr. Bob
