Prayers for Bishop Saltarelli

Fowarded from a friend:

Bishop Saltarelli has always been a very private man, as you may well know... One of the brothers from my council works at the diocesan offices, and was told this morning that the Bishop's condition is grave. This brother asked that the prayer request be sent out.

I understand that Bishop Saltarelli is being kept as comfortable as possible in the hospice wing of the hospital. I understand that the diocese asks that vists be kept to family members, and that others just offer prayers that the bishop have a peaceful death. The Knights are losing a great brother and true friend, as well as an outstanding shepherd.

Vivat Jesus,
