Praying for a Resolution of the St. Stanislaus Issue by Easter

Editor:

Your presentation of the St. Stanislaus crisis Feb. 11 has been superb in its clarity and logic.

My heart is deeply saddened by so many parishioners who are in open rebellion to the true authority of our wonderful archbishop and now the Holy See. I almost feel like apologizing to Archbishop Burke on the hostile reception he has been given since his arrival in St. Louis.

Those of us that have met him and know him find him tremendously warm, sincere and very caring, a truly holy man. We are blessed with the presence of such a man. I feel that the people in rebellion to the archbishop have been blinded by their own pride and truly do not know what they are doing. My big fear is that they are putting their own immortal soul at risk and this Lent need to carefully examine their motivations and actions. My hope and prayer is for a resolution of this situation by Easter.
