Dear Community Members,

Thank you so much for accepting Father Saguto’s interim decision on our present situation. As he said, he must confer with Father Berg and Taylor. Father Berg, in turn, will have to have a pow-wow with his council. Then, as you can probably well imagine, things will have to be discussed and allowed to simmer. Further financial aspects will have to be considered, and the process continues. But, I also think that, instead of things going on and on as often happens in other areas, there’s not going to be an inordinate amount of discussing, simmering and considering with regard to our situation. All things considered, I believe that a decision will be arrived at sooner rather than later.

Once again, you know that our bulletin is prepared on Wednesday, usually, and that, depending on when it hits the website, and then, depending on when you read it, verb tenses might not make very much sense from time to time. So, since this is Wednesday, I’ll say that Father Orlowski is due back tomorrow, Thursday. He’ll get back into the swing of things very quickly, I’m sure, beginning with Mass for the Missionaries of Charity on Friday morning. I will be around all day Friday, but only part of Saturday and really not at all on Sunday. Though I won’t be participating in all events, the annual convention of the Equestrian Order of the Holy Sepulchre of Jerusalem (Southwestern Lieutenancy) is this weekend. I am a Knight so it’s expected that I attend at least some of the events.

One of the events is particularly meaningful for me because one of our own will be inducted as a Knight of the Holy Sepulchre. Mr. Tom Pyron will be invested at Mass in the Statehouse Convention Center at 2:00 PM Sunday. I will also attend the Memorial and “Promotion” Mass on Saturday at 2:00 PM. This Mass is primarily for those knights and ladies who will be “promoted” from one rank to a higher one. The big, Sunday Mass is known as the Investiture Mass where new knights and ladies are invested in their regalia. Of course, from all over the southwest will attend. Following Saturday’s Mass will be a “black tie reception and dinner. Following Sunday’s Mass will be a “white tie” reception and dinner. Though you don’t see such things often these days, priests have their own black/white tie formal attire, and no, it’s not merely a suit. At least on Sunday, I’ll be wearing my Jerusalem Cross medallion with my “ferraiolo,” a long black cape, worn over the shoulders and which extends down to the ankles and is tied in front. Of course, such a cape is only worn with the cassock. I should see a few violet ones and maybe a red one or two. Arch/Bishops wear violet and Cardinals, red.

A propos cardinals, three Americans were named to the Sacred College: Bishop (probably soon to be archbishop) Kevin Farrell of Dallas; Archbishop Blase Cupich of Chicago; and Archbishop Joseph Tobin of Indianapolis. We should keep them in our prayers, my children and my friends.
