    Good news. We need good holy Bishops. I pray for all the new Bishops and all the new Bishops to come that they will cooperate with grace to lead the People of God in this troublesome time for the Church and the World.

    Let us thank the Lord for sending labourers into the harvest. May the new Bishop (to be ordained on the beautiful feast of St. Dominic) be blessed with every blessing and be an instrument of grace for his people.
