I'm crossing my fingers that Burke is a bit more visible than Rigali was. One of the things I'm afraid of is that among the Catholic high schools here (at least 25, currently), only 7 are archdiocesan. The rest are run by orders and the administrations are very loyal to the orders, moreso than the archdiocese. That's going to be a problem.

The other thing that will be interesting is "liturgy". The Jesuits got their start here and there's a great pride in that. We'll see. Just the Tabernacles moving to the foot of the Crucifix was an ordeal. I can just imagine what would happen if the OCP books were banned.

Many are hoping that he will be, as you say, "more visible". I hope that he will be more attentive to liturgical issues, catechesis, and vocations.

As far as OCP is concerned, it would certainly be nice to see them dropped completely from the archdiocese. What a load of trash these things are.
