Do you know how many years until Mahony is to retire?
I hope it's within Pope Benedict XVI's time, then he can appoint a more orthodox bishop for the Los Angeles area. God knows they need one there.
I escaped the LA area with my family 10 years ago, and my faith has grown by leaps and bounds going to an orthodox, conservative parish (well, studying apologetics contributed a lot to that too). I'm so happy we got Bishop Olmstead here in Phoenix a year ago, and now Pope Benedict! I'm ecstatic!
He is required by Church law to submit his resignation to the Holy See by February 27, 2011.

I'm very happy about our new Holy Father as well.
May he live long and rule strong!
