“Given that Rorate Coeli and Shea are mad at Fr. Z, I think it proves Fr. Z knows what he is doing and he is right.”

"Let me be clear. Fr. Z is a shock jock, mostly. His readership is vast and touchy. They like to be provoked and react with speed and fury."

“For me the saddest thing about Father Z’s blog is how cruel it is.... It’s astonishing to me that a priest could traffic in such cruelty and hatred.”

I’m sorry, Father, for the loss of him for you and your brother-priests’ sake. We have been praying for you all, the diocese, and his soul. At first I was so upset when I heard that he passed away because he did so much good, but then I remembered that he can do more from heaven and that was a comfort to me. Of course, I only met him twice so I imagine the suffering is great for you. Prayers for all of the above in our Christmas rosary and mass. Merry Christmas. God bless you.
Well that made me cry. I wish I had a Shepherd like Bishop Morlino. Eternal Rest Grant unto him oh Lord. I pray and hope that I can meet him one day. God bless all our Holy Priests.
If only Tradition minded, conservative Catholics, would stick together throughout the year. End the nitpicking, end the silly bickering, because there is strength in numbers. We know who is behind the divisions.
Our Lady of Fatima pray for us.

Merry Christmas!
That was lovely, a fitting tribute for a faithful bishop. It is poignant when he looks directly at the person who filmed. How we wish we were blessed with such a shepherd. It must be heartbreaking for those close to him as you were Fr. Z. I’m sorry for your loss. His cares are over, please God, he will enjoy the light of heaven and rest with his Creator. Hopefully a faithful shepherd will replace him.
What a beautiful video. Bishop Morlino is missed terribly… Off to get some tissues.
Dear Father, Thank you for posting this video – and also to the Remnant.
I am having Masses said for Bishop Morlino’s soul and those of Cardinals Caffara and Meisner at my local parish.
I am sorry for your loss. I will add prayers regarding his successor to those I’m praying for D. Wuerl’s successor.
A blessed Christmastide to you!
