For Bishop Finn

Bishop Robert Finn
Bishop of Kansas City - St Joseph, 
Missouri, USA

Let us offer a Hail Mary now
and also
our rosary and prayers
for the successful outcome
of today's criminal trial.
+
Hail Mary, full of grace the LORD is with Thee.
Blessed art Thou amongst women 
and blessed is the fruit of Thy womb, JESUS.

Holy Mary, Mother of God
pray for us sinners now
and at the hour of our death. 
Amen.
+
Ne despicias...
Despise not, O almighty God,
Thy people who cry out in their affliction,
but for the glory of Thy name be appeased
and help those in trouble.
Through Christ Our Lord. 
Amen. 

Mother of Perpetual Succour, 
pray for him.
St. Joseph,
pray for him.

  2. Prayers offered. He was my bishop for awhile and I honour him.

  3. I wonder if the computer repairman who found those disgusting pictures to start with reported his findings to the police.

    If not, why was he not prosecuted as well?

  4. Although it is noble to pray for anyone, I am rather disturbed you should wish an outcome contrary to the evidence in such an awful matter.

    Are you suggesting that you know Bishop Finn is innocent even though he has admitted to grave mistakes, or is there another specific reason why you are praying for him? These are genuine questions from me.

    Wouldn't it also have been appropriate to offer prayers for those who had been abused?
