Congratulations to the new presbyters! May you all take and follow the words of Pope Francis: be rooted in Jesus Christ-don't forget to pray; stay close to the people you serve by smelling like the sheep-you are to serve not lord over them, avoid careerism and clericalism-don't get any sense of clergy entitlement and superiority over the laity, continuously read and study especially the scriptures so that you always deliver quality homilies, be attuned to and apply the reforms and teachings of Vatican II-don’t desire having grandmother laces and guitar shaped vestments. And (not Francis’ words, now my own) in light of the ongoing crisis and scandal: don’t be enticed and get trapped in the quagmire of the gay lavender mafia within the Church which is at the root of and operation of the homosexual predation sex abuse scandal by the clergy and cover up by bishops.
