A big H/T and thank you to Badger Catholic for posting the entire Mass of Installation for Bishop William Callahan as Bishop of La Crosse, WI. Bishop Callahan was a huge blessing to the Archdiocese of Milwaukee as our auxilliary Bishop and he will be greatly missed. The following quote from his installation homily is a fine example of the great devotion of this very holy man.
"As your Bishop, I accept not simply the care of properties, balancing ledgers and the upkeep of temporal services. As your Bishop, I accept something much more significant-the call of Jesus Christ for the care and support of your immortal souls."

I watched the replay of the installation mass. I am so happy to have him as our new Bishop. I am starting to hear a lot of good things about him. He struck me as a kind and very devout man. His smile is contagious. I am sorry that you are losing him, but it is good for us. You got your Arch Bishop from us, so now it is time to pay up. :-) God Bless you and God Bless Bishop Callahan.
