Open Letter in Support of Msgr. John Urell

For nearly 30 years, you have served the faithful with fidelity, love and courage.

You have baptized and given First Communion to our children.

You have lovingly prepared us for Marriage.

You have spoken the Lord's forgiveness to us in Reconciliation.

You have brought us words of comfort and hope as we faced life's final chapter.

You have fed us with the Lord's body and blood in the Eucharist.

For the thousands of lives you have touched, we support you now in your hour of need.

Msgr. John, we pray for your healing and your return to ministry.
