The Archbishop of St. Louis is demanding a meeting with two women who claim to have been ordained as Catholic priests last weekend.  Archbishop Raymond Burke demands Elsie Hainz McGrath and Rose Marie Dunn Hudson appear before a church tribunal. They say they have no plans to attend the December 3rd meeting because their appearance will not change Burke’s mind. Burke had threatened to excommunicate the women if they went through with the ordination. He says the Catholic Church does not recognize women as priests.  The ordination was sponsored by an organization called Roman Catholic Women Priests.
