Bishop: *It has been a real j o y . . . *

My dear Brothers and Slaters:

As I look back on my four years as Bishop of Pittsburgh one word emerges which expresses the common thread that unites my life with God and His people. That word is Mission — "T o spread the Good News of God’s love.” That Mission of Jesus Christ is never a solitary effort. It is an Invitation to solidarity, a unity that la inclusive of all peoples, o f all ages, and in all walks of life. It has been a real Joy to share In the Mission of Jesus Christ with the people of the Church In Pittsburgh. I express my gratitude to Almighty God for the Joy that has been mine these past four years. To my fellow bishops, Bishop McDowell, Bishop Bosco, now in Greensburg, and especially my esteemed predecessor. Bishop Leonard, I express sincere gratitude for your unwavering support and acceptance. To my brother priests and deacons, to my Religious Sisters and Brothers, and to my seminarians, I extend my prayers of thankfulness and encouragement for your will­ ingness to sacrifice yourselves for total service of God’s people. To married couples and families, who comprise the majority of the People of God in the Diocese, I thank you for the ways In which you strive to be faithful to each other and to your larger parish families.
