Beware Liturgical Abusers
Catholic World News : Austrian bishop resigns after liturgical-abuse complaints
This would clearly be missed by the secular media's radar but wouldn't it be interesting if others start resigning early? I have said all along from reading the Pope's writings that liturgy would be his main focus and I think this will bear out.
From a faith perspective I see all of this as the fruition of the Year of the Eucharist declared by Pope John Paul II. I believe the synod of Bishops to be held this year will bear much long lasting good fruit that we all will experience first hand in our parish churches in the near future.
