Cardinal Egan was there once before when I went, back when he was Bishop of Bridgeport. I think he has participated often. And Bishop Austen Vaughan has been a regular--one of the few really dedicated to the cause.

This is heartening news, because frankly bishops and priests were very few and far between in the early years. They were worried about offending people. Ugh. Finally they are getting up a little courage.

That's interesting. I was too little to remember the early days, but now that I participate, I see priests, bishops, seminarians, etc., everywhere.
