Bishop Bruskewitz lays it down

[Vianney]

In an address to the Catholic Citizens of Illinios, at their annual meeting Oct 19th, Bishop Fabian Bruskewitz identified the crisis in the Church today.

Excellent, but lenghty read.

One statistic he read, which stood out to me:

In 1965, all the statistical studies showed that at least 85% or perhaps more of the Catholics in the United States attended mass each Sunday. The present statistical studies show that this has gone to 27% of the Catholics in the United States attending mass on Sundays.

I just read that speech… I would recommend everyone read it too if you have time. It’s a great reflection on our current crises.
