“Lay people have a particular calling to engage in the political process as a means of promoting the common good,” said the bishop, however adding that this should always be done in a manner consistent with the teachings of the Church.
Remember to keep our good bishops and priests in your prayers. But let us not forget those others who are in need of our prayers as well. We must do all we can to support and encourage our bishops and priests, with prayer, penance and sacrifice. Send a card or letter of thanks when they are courageous in proclaiming the Gospel.
