Kathryn Lopez on archbishop Chaput

A few days ago Kathryn Lopez wrote an article praising Archbishop Charles Chaput, the archbishop of Philadelphia.  The occasion for this article was the 75th birthday of the archbishop and his submission of a letter of resignation as is customary now.

She writes:
Archbishop Chaput has been a good spiritual father to many people — maybe especially lay people trying to live Catholic lives in the world faithfully and even courageously. He’s a great gift, a man of humility and clarity and humor and courage.

I have read many articles, speeches, homilies, and books by the archbishop, and second her heartfelt thanks to him, and to God for this fine shepherd of the little flock of Christ.
