To the delight of many, the process of selecting a new Archbishop of Los Angeles has begun. The archdiocese - which has been under the control of the controversial "progressive" (notoriously liberal) Cardinal Mahony for nearly 25 years - has issued a memo containing a prayer asking for divine assistance in the selection of the Cardinal's successor. The prayer reads as follows:
"Lord, God, you are our eternal shepherd and guide. In your mercy, grant to the Archdiocese of Los Angeles a shepherd who will walk in your ways and whose watchful care will bring us your blessing. In your love for us, give us the joy of receiving a shepherd who will be an example of goodness to your people and who will fill our hearts and minds with the truth of the gospel. We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen."
The Archdiocese of Los Angeles - the nation's largest diocese - desperately needs a good, holy, orthodox leader. Please pray hard!
