    523 N. Duluth Ave. Catholic Diocese of Sioux Falls Sioux Falls, SD 57104 (605) 988-3798 Office of the Bishop (605) 334-2092 fax Statement from the Most Reverend Paul J. Swain, Bishop of Sioux Falls: His Excellency, George J. Lucas, Archbishop of Omaha, announced yesterday that he has suppressed the Hermit Association of the Intercessors of the Lamb. As a result any association, retreats or other relationship with this group by clergy or laity in the Diocese of Sioux Falls is to be terminated. Archbishop’s Lucas’ statement explains why and serves as a guide for us: “Today, for grave reasons, I suppressed the Hermit Association of the Intercessors of the Lamb. The reasons for this suppression are noted in a separate news release, principally, the refusal of the lay civil board of the Intercessors of the Lamb, Inc., a Nebraska corporation, to acknowledge my authority in making much-needed reforms in the community. The way of life of some fifty vowed members was in peril due to actions of a handful of civil directors. The vows of the former members have ceased (c. 1194), and they are to set aside the habit and refrain from using the titles “Mother,” “Brother,” or “Sister.” They are no longer considered to be in consecrated life or assimilated to it in the Church. I am providing for the care of the former members in the short-term, and remain committed to helping them in any way I can in the future. From this point forward, The Intercessors of the Lamb, Inc., is in no way associated with the Catholic Church.
