The Crosier/Nexus Connection

On June 29th, 2008, Pronexus The Mille Lacs Messenger published this nice little gem about the Crosiers of Onamia, including some Pronexus blurbs (got to love those Crosier/Nexus values....) Here is a portion of the nice little article Brett Larson wrote about this nice group of child molesting pedophiles and Nexus' convicted sex offenders. (I'm getting close to puking, folksies. This is getting surreal.) First read the Mess' article, (click the link for the entire article if you like), then see below.

A new church, an ancient order

"In Onamia, their schools have closed, but the Crosiers have continued to host the Mille Lacs Academy. Now, as the Academy builds a new facility, the Crosiers are looking ahead again.Holl said the Crosiers see their community and surroundings as a place of healing for the mind, body and spirit.

Their relationships with Mille Lacs Health System and Nexus have promoted those values, and the renovated church and the new shrine of St. Odilia complement what Holl calls "Onamia commons.""

Hannabelle doesn't like pedophiles, perverts, toddler molesters - no matter what their age or religion. Is she the ONLY ONE in Onamia who doesn't condone abuse or worship abusers? JEEEZ!

Strange, but True...

Father Jerry Schik is a Nexus Board member. He resides at the St. Odilia facility in Shoreview (where they are apparently sending some of these pedophile priests).

Do the priests molest these poor troubled boys, then turn around and support their victims "treatment"? Of course, I got no answers from Father Jerry... He refused to talk to Hannabelle (see Hannabelle's HALL OF SHAME on millelacsnews.com )

Crosiers Address Sex Abuse Shoreview Religious Order Identifies Eight Offenders

By Chris Graves, Warren Wolfe and Richard Meryhew Star Tribune [Minneapolis MN]October 10, 2002

A Roman Catholic religious order based in Shoreview on Wednesday publicly identified eight members who sexually abused minors, and it announced a stronger policy against sexual misconduct that is aimed at restoring the public's trust. The eight Crosier priests and brothers who abused minors have been removed from public ministry and are living under restrictions, according to a summary of an independent audit released by the Crosier order.

THE LIST

Eight Crosier members living on restrictions

Eight Crosier members were found to be the subject of credible claims of sexual abuse of a minor.

All have been removed from public ministry; may not perform any work with minors, including volunteer work; cannot be in the presence of a minor without adult supervision, and cannot leave the grounds of a Crosier community without permission.

Some also have additional restrictions. Where the number of victims is not specified below, there were multiple victims, investigators said.

Hannabelle highly recommends that you check out BishopAccountability.org

After a long career of child molestation, it appears that many of the pedophile priests retire to sunny Arizona. Hey, isn't that where councilman Jerome Kryzer spends his winters? Co-inkidink?

Well JJ, since no one seems to care about your nonstop whining any longer, I thought it would be fun to take one last parting shot at you as I leave the area and move to Iowa. I noticed that for a long time you didn't update, I was worried that maybe something terrible had happened. Nope no such luck. I leave Onamia with a heavy heart but greener pastures await my family in more friendly confines of our neighbor to the south. I hope you enjoy the academy and it's fantastic architecture for the next 100 years. I wish you health and happiness {lol} and a long life.
