New Bishop of Pueblo

Stephan Berg was named the next bishop of Pueblo, Colorado.  Look at his resume.  It is filled with pastoral parish work.  Even when he was a mucky muck in his Texas diocese, he was a pastor.  This is the future.  Bureaucrats need not apply for bishop.  Same for seminary professors.  Berg even started out in rural parishes.  Many a diocesan priest thinks he is being punished if he is assigned to rural areas.  The world it is a changing.

  1. Padre Terry, Yes and I guess your Boulder parish has a newly ordained deacon who hangs at the jail and the homeless shelter...seems like the man is cut from the cloth that Pope Francis speaks, Change is refreshing, no?
