The man behind the new church is Mel Gibson, according to John Maher, of Greensburg, a member of St. Joseph the Protector Chapel on St. Clair Way in Hempfield Township, another Catholic group that holds weekly Masses in Latin.

For several years, Maher and a small group of like-minded people have been gathering for Mass at St. Joseph. When Hutton Gibson moved to West Virginia from Texas, he began coming to Westmoreland County to attend Mass.

The California-based World Faith Foundation purchased the 26-acre Mt. Pleasant Township property for $315,000 last September from Donald and Janet Wagner and is renovating the interior of the house, where Mass is celebrated.

Mel Gibson secretly came to Greensburg to attend Mass at St. Joseph Chapel last April, Maher said. He said more than 100 people -- some not even Catholic -- turned out for the Mass when they learned Gibson would attend.


This house will be the home to a church called St. Michael the Archangel Chapel

Gibson and his dad can start their own cult out there.

1. Can You Say "CULT"?

Man these people are freaky...

[sarcasmo]

2. This guy is a true BIGOT and what a cult this will be. I can just imagine.

I bet the Kool Aid will be served.

3. I want all the money back I ever spent on Lethal Weapon movies...

Can you believe that he and Danny Glover shared the same screen? Opposite coasts, politically.

4. I'm from that general area, and I still recall the day we were driving

home from Greensburg . . . noticed a WHOLE BUNCH of police cars in front of one house and parked in the driveway, reds and blues going apeshit.

As we found out after we got home, seems some guy was burning the remains of his grandmother and grandfather, whom he later confessed to killing.

My mother later found out that this "confessed murderer" was a true Mama's boy, who took the fall for his drug abusing mother.

In a suicide note found in a hotel a few years after his incarceration, she took responsibility and confessed to the murders, because she wanted her parents' money. Basically absolving her son of the crime. But the son was a true Mama's boy . . . he never once recanted his story.

This, I fear, is the kind of people who will be flocking to this "chapel" . . . and it's in my home back yard . . .
