Statement
of The Most Reverend John J. Myers, Archbishop of Newark, on the
Appointment of The Most Reverend Sean Patrick O’Malley, OFMCap,
as Archbishop-Elect of Boston
The
people of the Church of Newark rejoice along with the people of
the Church of Boston in the appointment of my friend and colleague,
Bishop Sean O’Malley, as Archbishop-elect. He is an outstanding
bishop, a man of prayer and of the Church. His extensive experience
in leading dioceses and people through difficult times will be particularly
valuable to the Archdiocese of Boston as it seeks healing in the
days and months ahead.
It is
my firm belief that Archbishop-elect O’Malley will be for
the people of the Archdiocese of Boston an instrument of the Lord’s
peace.
