Stolen Minds: The Children Must Come First

Charles T. Gregory a decorated combat veteran of Vietnam after due deliberation decides to become a priest. Its the right choice for him and he advances rapidly to become the Cardinal Archbishop of Boston. As Cardinal he tries to do everything for everybody but he doesnt have the money. His congregation is shrinking and collections are declining and many of his parishes are in economic trouble. His sister pleads with him to use all of his income to educate the children before their minds are stolen by the wanton world about them. After much soul searching he decides to sell his hospitals and use the proceeds to rebuild his school system. But Greg knows that the invincible bureaucrats in Romes Curia will emasculate this radical plan unless he first obtains the Popes approval in writing.He must find a way around Romes inflexible and all-powerful apparatchiks or his plan for new schools will die in the catacombs of the Vatican bureaucracy.
