New bishop in Oakland, CA



The new bishop of Oakland, Michael Barber, SJ, served as a spiritual director at St. John Seminary here in Boston for the last three years. I regret that I never got a chance to meet him.

My regret is based on the video above which gives us his closing remarks at the Mass this morning in Oakland where he was ordained a bishop to serve that diocese. For an ecclesial shot in the arm, take a look at the video.

(H/T to Rocco for the video!)

  1. I think with his first U.S. pick as bishop Pope Francis has hit it out of the ballpark!
