Less than two weeks!
Thrilled for Archbishop Kurtz. He was Pastor of our church in PA for a few years before he was promoted to Bishop in KY. We were so impressed with him. Pumpkin was a little boy who could not always make it through mass. The Big Guy and him would head toward the back of the church as there was no cry room. On nice weather days, they'd head just out the front doors of the church. Don't worry. They weren't the only ones out there. During this time, the Pastor got to know Big Guy and Pumpkin's names. If he was not celebrating mass, he'd hang around to meet and greet the parishioners. He took a vested interested in the congregation. He was known for memorizing the pictures in the Church Directory in an effort to address you by name. It was impressive. Congrats, Archbishop Kurtz on your election to President of the Conference of Bishops.
