Praise God. I am so excited. I was pretty much out of it on pain pills(that were not working verywell as to the pain but just made my discomfort have a more delirious quality) so I missed the early reports that it was coming down. However Vox Feminae , who reported rumors of this weeks ago has the story as well as a lot of links at Shreveport has a new bishop!!! Welcome Reverend Monsignor Michael Duca (now Bishop) to Louisiana!!!!
I am very excited that he comes from Seminary background. We need that!!!!Vox Feminae links to a very good Whispers in the Loggia post on our new guy. He has another post up at "Perfect Match"
The Vatican Web site has the official Notification here
The Shreveport Diocese has a Press Release and Press Conference and Mass
We shall know a little about his Coat of Arms in the near future I suppose. I shall update this entry with the local news stories when they come out
The Shreveport Times has a small blurb up at Updated: Pope names new bishop for Shreveport; installation tentatively scheduled. I expect a much more bigger story for the paper tommorow
