Habemus Episcopum!

Welcome Bishop Joe Vasquez!

Our new Bishop of the Diocese of Austin was installed today!
 
I am filled with pride that he is Mexican-American.  The Hispanic population of Austin is really growing fast and there are great expectations that he will do great things for this diocese.  He appears to be a very reserved person but I'm eager to see what he does.  Archbishop Oscar Romero started off as very reserved.  That's what I love about the Church.  You just never have any idea how the Holy Spirit will work through someone.
