Arch. Burke may need to bilocate.. or trilocate..

Yesterday Arch Burke was appointed as a member of the Congregation for the Causes of the Saints. This is very exciting because there are many worthy causes for American Saints from the Great Lakes area, including Ven Solanus Casey and Fr. John Hardon, SJ. Blessed Kateri Tekakwitha is also a cause close to his heart.

"Promoted out" of the US?

Ok - let's count 'em...

• June 2008: Appointed as Prefect of the Apostolic Signatura
• October 19, 2009: Appointed a member of the Congregation for Bishops
• July 6, 2010: Appointed a member of the Congregation for Divine Worship
• Today: July 26, 2010: Appointed a member of the Congregation for the Causes of the Saints

'nuff said - LOL

Te Deum laudamus! 

His Excellency is also President of the Commission for Advocates
