I love Bp. Jenky’s cover page to the priests that accompanied this letter. Usually these “read at mass” things are requested, suggested or advised in almost pleading terms.
“By virtue of your vow of obedience to me as your bishop, I require that this letter be personally read by each celebrating priest at each weekend Mass,” Jenky wrote in a letter circulated to clergy.
Nice to see a bishop actually “Teach, Govern and Sanctify” instead of vacillate, mollycoddle and pacify.
