As Bishop-elect Felton is ordained for our diocese, we share in a moment that very clearly connects us to our Holy Father, Pope Francis, to the Church throughout the world, and to the apostles, as bishops are the direct successors of the apostles. In the ordination of a bishop, there is the reading and presen- tation of an “apostolic mandate” that must be given, expressing that it is by the 6LQEBKQEB/LOA-BPRP>CQBOEBPMLHBQLQEBJT>PQ>HBKRMFKQLEB>SBK >KAQLLHEFPPB>Q>QQEBOFDEQE>KALC*LA0>OH SACRAMENTS will of the pope that the man to be ordained has been chosen for the particular dio- Baptism: Baptism preparation class cese which he is to lead.

Yes, these are important. But Jesus provides the foundation for everything we do. Pope Francis explains we must “pray to Him, celebrate Him, and imitate Him.” In other words, talk to Him, participate in Mass, and act as He would.

It inspires us to be better and challenges us to do more. The Bible is filled with stories of people who experienced the uncertainty of change and its ultimate joys. In Genesis, Abraham left his family, home and all things familiar to him to live in an unknown foreign country. Because of his willingness to listen to God and to change, he was given many descendants and is known to us as the father to all who have faith. This past year has been a year of change for the Catholic Foundation.
