CWN - April 17, 2009

Bishop John D'Arcy of Fort Wayne-South Bend, Indiana, who had earlier warned against "unseemly and unhelpful demonstrations," reportedly expressed his support for the campus group NDResponse, and said that he would welcome "prayerful and dignified demonstrations" and might participate in them if his schedule allowed it.
