Let’s say a quick prayer for the faithful in Spokane, Washington where Bishop Cupich forbade priests to participate, then changed his mind after a “public outcry”, but in the confusing interim, many priests cancelled their parish’s involvement, thinking they were complying with the Bishop, and as of a few days ago the seminarians were still under orders not to pray or demonstrate outside any abortion clinic. The married couple that are the organizers every year (yes, just 2 people) are frantically trying to get all the signals straight between bishop, priests, Catholic laity, etc. Bishop Cupich needs to show some leadership and, in his words, “teaching” instead of vague positions. He’s been bishop there 1 year, the event has gone on 4 years with never a problem until now.
Oh no!!
I’ll certainly add this intention to my evening prayers. Yikes! What a mess
