Rector Momberg "Just Say I am Sorry"

Hot News flash from a meeting at the Church this past week:

Looks like someone failed to inform all the necessary persons in the Church about a Funeral at the Church, and there was a breakdown in communications to the person responsible for there being Flowers present.  When confronted about this, the Rector Momberg (instead of stating, "I am sorry that you did not get the communication, I will correct this in the future, you are right in bringing this up and wanting it corrected") took a very argumentative position and a defensive posture on the subject.  With it almost coming to a shouting match and his turning angry.  Come on!  Are you kidding me here?  The Right thing to say was "Yes, you are right, you should have been informed, I am sorry"  but no he has to place blame on others and defend those that made the mistake (if it was not him) and blow it off as a personal attack.  This shows a lack of Leadership that is becoming more and more evident daily, and we need this to end.  We need a Leader, not a Woe is me, Everybody picks on me, Poor Pitiful Me, I am a victim here, to lead this Parish to the next proper level.  We are never going to get to the next level with him in place.  Or with the current Senior & Junior Warden's (his had picked puppets).  In my many years I have dealt with persons that place the blame on other for their failures, and this is a clear sign of denial.  It's Never their Fault it was because of, miscommunication, or you heard me incorrectly, or we did not clearly communicate that out, or a complete denial of ever having that conversation.  When is it going to stop?  When can we rid ourselves of this Rector and get a Priest in that will take the responsibility of a Rector and not create so many layers of committees, and groups, and other Isolationist Practices, that allows him to hide behind and ultimately make no decisions while he milks us for every dime we have in an overpaid Salary, and little to no work on his part.  We are not the Church we were two (2) years ago when he came to All Saints, we are poorer, we have lost parishioners, whole families, standing in the community.  I love this Church, and that is why I am writing this Blog.  We need to do something before it is really too late and there is no way to repair the damage this Rector is doing to OUR CHURCH.  Many of us want him gone, but (sorry to be blunt) many of you are too chicken to stand up for what is right and say what is wrong and work with us to get him removed.  This is as much as your church as it is mine and some of you have been hear from birth, so stop hiding you heads and step up and do the right thing.  Our Current Senior Warden did it with Fr. Jim!  Why can't we do it with this one as he is far worst than anything Jim could have ever done (and I know why The Current Senior Warden pushed him out, and it was not for anything as bad as I have presented here in this Blog on Rector Momberg).  "WHAT SAY YOU ALL SAINTS?"  Are you willing to FIGHT for YOUR CHURCH?  "WE NEED TO STOP ROLLING OVER AND LOOKING THE OTHER WAY" like it is not happening and is not effecting you, because it is.  HOW MUCH MORE WILL YOU TAKE?
