Is the man behind the mask known as the \"Friend of Medjugore\"? The founder and operator ofMedjugorje.com/ Caritas of Birmingham insists on calling himself \"A friend of Medjugorje\" rather than by his own name. Maybe it is just us but this curious business of referring to oneself in the third person, as the \"Friend of Medjugorje\" does throughout his web site, is beginning to creep us out. From the onset the third person references on his web site create an aura of obfuscation and an unsettling lack of transparency. rnThe \"Friend of Medjugorje\" it tuns out is named Terry Colafrancesco. He may refer to himself as a friend of Medjugorje but the more we peel away the layers we are beginning to discover that many people who are devoted to the Medjugorje movement think he is anything but a friend. rnrnNone of us are perfect and we encourage everybody to feel free to let us know the short comings of Ministryvalues.com but please could Terry drop the whole \"Friend of Medjugorje\" creepiness. The mission of Medjugorje.com to spread \"Our Lady\'s\" messages is admirable, but if Mr.Colafrancesco could just introduce himself to his audience on his website as \"Hi I\'m Terry Colafrancesco\", it would make a whole lot of people more comfortable.rnrnAsided from the third person issue many people are now also beginning to raise more serious questions about the business practices and evangelical methods of the organizers behind the website Medjugorje.comrnrnA number of years ago Father Svetozar Kraljevic, OFM wrote an open letter expressing his concerns about the organization run by Terry Colafrancesco.rnrn\"Dear brothers and sisters, Here in Medjugorje, in the name of the priests who are working in the parish with pilgrims who are coming from all over the world, I express my deep concern for the organization called CARITAS from Birmingham, Alabama. It appears that the organization does not follow good practice of Church discipline as well as the discipline of its members in regard to their ways in which they are organized within. We are afraid that there might be elements of a lack of respect for family relationships, mutual respect, respect for the church authority, respect for the families where the members come from, respect for property of family members who are there now and those who were there and left the community.\"rnrn And now, yesterday, Medjugorje.com of Birmingham, in a lengthy statement on their web site, announced a fund raising plea for $200,000 + to meet their annual operating needs to run their web site.

Our monthly out of pocket cost to run ministryvalues comes to a whopping total of $14.99 to pay our web hosting bill.
