"The U.S. bishops have called the Church not to look on Hispanics as a people in need, but as a gift to the Church,'' said Father Ruiz, adding that the Church should work with Hispanics with respect for "the Hispanic soul and the beauty of the culture." "One of a human being's greatest needs i.s to feel understood and valued," he said. More than 100 people attended the bilingual Mass cel ebrated by Father }luiz with eight priests. Archbishop J.

Hunthausen of Seattle.

The decision came after heavy conservative criti To Buy. cism that Archbishop Hunthausen was not following Church norms in many pastoral programs. The criti cisms had polarized much of the archdiocese into sup porters or detractors of the archbishop. The Vatican said the decision was taken because he was "lacking the firmness necessary to govern the diocese." But the decision further polarized the archdiocese and was criticized by many U.S. bishops. The result was that earlier this year, the Vatican reversed itself. At the suggestion of a fact-finding com mission of two U.S. cardinals and one archbishop it restored Archbishop Hunthausen's authority. ~ It "wasn't coincidental" that the decision was made prior to the U.S. trip, said Shaw.
