YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio-The bishop of Mother Angelica's native diocese of Youngstown has suggested the nun offer “a sincere invitation” to Los Angeles Cardinal Roger Mahony to appear on her EWTN program as an avenue to settle their differences. In November during her show “Mother Angelica Live” on the Eternal Word Television Network, Mother Angelica questioned the cardinal's faith and ministry based on a pastoral letter he issued Sept. 4 titled “Gather Faithfully Together: A Guide for Sunday Mass.” Several days later she apologized but continued to question his teaching on the Eucharist as presented in the pastoral. “Perhaps the cardinal would accept a sincere invitation” to appear as a guest on the show, Youngstown Bishop Thomas Tobin wrote in his Without a Doubt column in the Jan. 9 issue of the Catholic Exponent, his diocesan newspaper.
