Plus, our new parochial vicar is a retread - he did his parish training here. This is his first parish assignment. Preached his maiden sermon the Sunday before last (not yesterday but the week before). He did great!
I think the scandal was the fruit of bad seminary formation and lax supervision on the part of none-too-orthodox bishops . . . but it does indeed appear that the Holy Spirit is cleaning house for the new generation of young priests . . . hope so. God willing.
**We have THREE new seminarians doing their parish training at our parish!**
Truly exciting!
