℟ Dominus conservet eum, et vivificet eum, et beatum faciat eum in terra, et non tradat eum in animam inimicorum eius. |
℟ May the Lord preserve him, and give him life, and make him blessed upon the earth, and deliver him not up to the will of his enemies. |
Deus, omnium fidelium pastor et rector, famulum tuum N., quem pastorem Ecclesiae tuae praeesse voluisti, propitius respice: da ei, quaesumus, verbo et exemplo, quibus praeest, proficere: ut ad vitam, una cum grege sibi credito, perveniat sempiternam. Per Christum, Dominum nostrum. Amen. |
O God, Shepherd and Ruler of all Thy faithful people, look mercifully upon Thy servant N, whom Thou hast chosen as shepherd to preside over Thy Church. Grant him, we beseech Thee, that by his word and example, he may edify those over whom he hath charge, so that together with the flock committed to him, may he attain everlasting life. Through Christ our Lord. Amen. |
I got Cardinal Dolan’s book from the library a few months ago. It was excellent! He is a very good leader of the Church.

I just tried to get Hugh’s book on Kindle but it says it isn’t released until the 26th. He was sure talking it up today and made it sound like it was out on Kindle as well. By the way, has anyone read “Bad Religion” by Ross Douthat?
