excommunicated Archbishop wrote two letters to the pope and U.S. bishops:
"The Church has always had married priests and in it he called married men selected to become his apostles"
"The Church has always had married priests and in it he called married men selected to become his apostles"
clipped from www.corriere.it The former archbishop of Lusaka, Emmanuel Milingo, who was excommunicated by the Vatican, wrote two letters to Pope Benedict XVI and the Bishops 'Conference of the United States calling for the recall' in full service ministry of the Church of married priests. The documents, signed also by four married bishops ordained without permission from Milingo (who founded a "Personal Prelature") and for this he incurred with excommunication, they say that "Married Priests Now Prelature, as an international movement of married priests in the world, is willing to work with Pope and bishops to create new priests for the new millennium. The Church, "reads the two letters," has always had married priests and in it he called married men selected to become his apostles. A practice which is necessary to go back because many parishes in the world - remember Milingo - do not have enough priests to serve the people of God. "
