Bishop Patrick Ziemann has died at age 68. Oremus.

Resigned Bishop G. Patrick Ziemann died at a monastery in Arizona yesterday of pancreatic cancer at age 68, the Los Angeles Times reports today (click on this link's title).

Fr. Henri Capdeville, superior of the monastery, said of Bishop Ziemann, "He did some reparations [sic] for the harms he did in the best way he could."

Let us pray for the repose of Bishop Ziemann's soul. Let us also pray for everyone affected because of the scandals. May anyone who left the Church return to the Sacraments.

A good prayer to offer for these and all such intentions is, "Jesus, Mary, I love you, save souls!"

May God have Mercy on his soul, and may the souls of the faithfully departed in the Mercy of God rest in peace

God have mercy on Bishop Ziemann and all the other bishops who enabled their brother. It's time to call the bishops to accountability. One way is to cut off the money.

Boycott CCHD in November!

I have just learned of Bishop Ziemann's Death. As one of his students, and as a fellow priest, he was the largest influence for good in my life. Yes, he sinned but he also did good. May the Good Lord have mercy on his soul.

Dear Mary Ann,

Thank you for the link. As we know, there is no obligation for Catholics to support the Catholic Campaign for Human Development, which funds politically left-wing groups.

Reverend and Dear Father,

Thank you for your testimonial, and thank you so much for being a priest.

Yes, may God have mercy on Bishop Ziemann.

God bless you and everyone whom you serve.

Adjutorium nostrum in nomine Domine. Qui fecit caelum et terram. Amen.

(Our help is in the Name of the Lord. Who made Heaven and Earth. Amen.)
