  • US Bishops Pass Measures to Investigate And
    U.S. bishops pass measures to investigate and prevent abuse The U.S. bishops’ conference voted to approve proposals intended to respond to recent scandals involving sexual abuse, coercion, and cover-up on the part of bishops, most notably former cardinal Theodore McCarrick and the disgraced Bishop Michael Bransfield. The bishops, gathered in Baltimore for their spring General Assembly, voted overwhelmingly June 13 in favour of three measures aimed at building processes to address episcopal misconduct or neglect, and the ongoing crisis of credibility widely perceived to overshadow ongoing work to eliminate sexual abuse from the Church. Bishop Bransfield, of Wheeling-Charleston, W. Va. is accused of sexual assault. Pope Francis removed McCarrick from the priesthood in February after he was found guilty of abuse. The assembly approved protocol explaining the powers of a diocesan bishop to curtail the public ministry of a retired bishop in his former diocese by a margin of 212-4. They also approved a set of directives applying in the U.S. the new universal norms for investigating allegations against bishops promulgated by Pope Francis in Vos estis lux mundi. After initial discussion earlier this week, they were presented to bishops with an explicit exhortation for metropolitan bishops to appoint “on a stable basis, even by means of an ecclesiastical office, a qualified lay person” to receive allegations against bishops and work with the metropolitan in any subsequent investigation. The directives were approved by 218-1. The bishops also approved a joint statement, Affirming Our Episcopal Commitments, establishing a non-binding moral commitment by bishops to hold themselves to the same standards and measures as are currently applied to their priests and deacons.

  • Texas Bishop Says He Is Saddened That Defending the Gospel Is Considered ‘Bold’
    Texas bishop says he is saddened that defending the Gospel is considered ‘bold’ Bishop Joseph E. Strickland of Tyler, Texas, wouldn’t label himself as “bold.” “Talk to one of my siblings; I’m No. 5 of six kids,” Bishop Strickland recently told Our Sunday Visitor in an interview. “If you talk to my older brother, Paul, and ask, ‘Would you describe your little brother Joe as a bold man?’ he’d probably say, ‘Joe’s a nice guy, but I don’t think bold would be the word.'” But Bishop Strickland’s staunch defense of Church teaching and strong advocacy for transparency in the wake of the recent clergy abuse scandals — more widely pronounced in recent years thanks to social media — really can’t be described as anything but. While he speaks simply and almost understatedly, Bishop Strickland also manages to be both blunt and direct. “Honestly, I guess I’m bold enough to just say what I think,” he said. Even “if it gets me in trouble — sometimes it does — I’m going to be true to what I believe. It really saddens me to be considered bold for simply reading the Catechism out loud.” “When I was ordained a bishop almost seven years ago, I said I’d guard the deposit of Faith entire and incorrupt,” Bishop Strickland said. “That’s what I’m trying to do. It shouldn’t be considered bold to simply uphold my promises. It’s a basic job description.” In a wide-ranging conversation, Bishop Strickland shared many of his thoughts about the Church today, including internal divisions, the challenges and joys of living the Faith, the ongoing clergy sex abuse crisis and the path toward healing.

    For The Bulletin Of ago. One challenge is that some of His September 20, 2020 stories are set deeply in the milieu of His context. The parable is not in fact making statements about modern labor law or the role of unions or day laborers. Instead, landowners in Jesus’ time had incredible power over workers and over their property. Perhaps because there were no labor unions, guest worker programs, or labor laws to protect workers, the landowner was able to act with impunity. This kind of power makes for an apt image of a powerful and unaccountable God. So, Jesus uses the character of the THE 25TH SUNDAY IN landowner in the parable to say that God ORDINARY TIME gives each his or her due at the very least, From Father Robert and He is generous with His resources.
