There’s nothing quite like heading to your local bar to unwind, catch up with friends, or in the case of seven seminarians, toast the ordination of their colleague, Fr. Peter McLaren. Upon entering The City Arms, which happens to be a favorite of Cardiff, Wales, Archbishop George Stack, the religious students were stunned when they were asked to leave.
