As he begins to celebrate the one year anniversary of his installation as Archbishop of San Antonio, Archbishop Jose Gomez has released a pastoral letter in which he encourages faithful to seek the truth of Christ, revealed through the 2000 year tradition of the Church, not merely through their own opinions and tastes.
The Archbishop took the opportunity to meditate on one year of shepherding the Catholic people of San Antonio and to look toward the future of the nearly 700,000-member Archdiocese.
He told faithful that using the words “’your archbishop‘—[fills] me with pride and humility: pride at being called to serve this wonderful archdiocese and humility in the knowledge of my limitations.”
Archbishop Gomez began the letter proper by first challenging the faithful to delve more deeply into their faith in Jesus Christ.
