Archbishop Miller

I don't have time for a full post, but I must note the appointment of Archbishop Michael Miller as Coadjutor of Vancouver. You can find posts on the new Coadjutor Archbishop at Open Book, at Rocco's Whispers and at Dilexit Prior. John Allen also has a post up.

I'm very excited, but we should also take note of the faithful service Archbishop Roussin has performed over the last five years for the Archdiocese. Despite ill health, he has nurtured and strengthened the Church here, while standing forthright for the family in the public square. He, of course, will continue to serve as the ordinary at least for the time being, but I imagine he will hand over the reins within the year, and when that occurs I am sure he will continue his ministry in another form.
