The Holy See will appoint a special delegate and commission to overhaul the Legionaries of Christ

In a notably blunt statement yesterday, the Holy See announced that Pope Benedict XVI will select a special delegate and commission to overhaul the Legionaries of Christ, and that he will name a visitator to Regnum Christi.

To read Vatican Radio's English translation of the announcement, click on this post's title.

The Holy See's statement concludes with this encouraging note:

"...7. Finally, to all Legionaries of Christ, their families, committed lay people in the Regnum Christi movement, the Holy Father renews his encouragement during this difficult time for the Congregation and each one of them. He urges them not to lose sight that their vocation, which originated from Christ’s call and is animated by the ideal to witness his love to the world, is a true gift from God, a treasure for the Church, the indestructible foundation on which to build their personal future and that of the Legion."

May all go well during the overhaul process. Oremus.
