I have for some
time now been making noises that our South African Catholic newspaper should do
more about giving its readers access to the homilies and messages of our
bishops. Not all of us are fortunate
enough to attend Mass with them and to hear their message for ourselves.
The good news is
that I see that Cardinal Napier is now going to be contributing to The Southern
Cross on a monthly basis. I am
absolutely ecstatic about this news. I
hope that Cardinal Napier’s example will lead more of our bishops to reach out
to us through the newspaper and share their message with us. We need their guidance and their encouragement
more than they themselves may sometimes realise.
Thank you
Cardinal Napier and thank you The Southern Cross!
