The challenges of change

Bishop Murphy addresses the pending changes in the diocese caused by the priest shortage in his weekly Montana Catholic Register “Reflections” column. He asks all the faithful to openly embrace adjustments that will bring to an end to “Masses of convenience and the service of a priest at anytime.” In his view, “At the heart of any change is the willingness to grow and mature. As we strive to profess our faith and to celebrate it in worship, may we be open to the Spirit and develop a stronger sense and experience of Church!”
