The Pope of Rome has appointed 2 priests of the (Roman) Catholic Diocese of Dallas to become auxiliary bishops of the same diocese: Rev. Msgr. Mark Seitz and the Very rev. J. Douglas Deshotel. they are to be ordained & installed on April 27.

Msgr. Seitz last year donated a kidney to one of his parishioners, without which she would have died of kidney disease.

I met them while they were both seminarians attending the University of Dallas during the mid 1970s.

Mnohaja litta!

May God grant many years in His service to the bishop-designates.
