What the head of the Legion is saying to members

This Sunday I was invited to attend a Sunday Mass of healing celebrated by Fr. Alvaro Corcuera, the General Director of the Legionaries of Christ (and direct successor to Marcial Maciel) at a local Catholic parish.

I have published my observations here.

I have also published the widely-distributed thoughts of a Regnum Christi member who was in attendance.

Taken together, they provide both an internal and third-party view of what Fr. Alvaro is saying about the Maciel situation.

This information is especially helpful because public, official statements by the Legionaries have - up to this point - been very scant.

Fr. Alvaro often speaks of the Legionary as a family. I publish this with a hope that the promises he has made within the family will also be abided by outside the family.

update: welcome, UK Telegraph readers. Complete information about the Maciel scandal here.
