Phoenix is the fifth-largest city in the U.S. and the diocese serves 1.2 million Catholics.
The interior of St. Bernadette Catholic Church in Scottsdale, Arizona, has been transformed.
'The issue with using ‘We’ is that it is not the community that baptizes a person, rather, it is Christ, and Him alone, who presides at all of the sacraments, and so it is Christ Jesus who baptizes,' Bishop Olmsted explained.
Bishop Olmsted acknowledged that there have been many who have asked their pastors to grant them exemptions, but noted that “it is employers who grant exemptions, not pastors.”
The bishop warned that reluctance to speak out in such cases is a pastoral failure, rather than a charitable politeness.
The seminar will be livestreamed on the diocese’s Youtube and Facebook pages.
