We join @ArchbishopGomez in grieving the sudden loss of one of our bishops. Bishop O’Connell was an active member of our Conference and a champion for the poor and marginalized as the former Subcommittee Chairman of @PovertyUSA_CCHD. May he rest in peace.
I am very sad to report that our beloved Auxiliary Bishop David O’Connell has passed away unexpectedly. May Our Lady of Guadalupe wrap him in the mantle of her love. lacatholics.org/statement-fr…

Let's all say a prayer for Pope Benedict today!
Passauer Neue Presse reported Seewald describing Pope Benedict as "extremely frail," and as saying that while he is mentally sharp, his voice is barely audible. cnstopstories.com/2020/08/03…
