Toronto Archbishop Thomas Collins has been named the liaison with Anglican groups wishing to avail themselves of Anglicanorum coetibus in Canada.
I am delighted Collins will be playing this role. Though I do not know him that well, he has always been accessible to me as a journalist, generous with his time, kind and forthright. He is also a man of deep faith and joy, staunchly pro-life and unafraid to get out and mix it up in the public square, whether on a talk radio station or in a firm, but timely statement...

I'd like to add this favourable comment concerning Archbishop Collins; he was my confessor at St.Peter's Seminary way back in the 80's.
ReplyDeleteWhat a superb and spiritually in-Christ person you have. Even in the old days he was an expert on (now Blessed) Cardinal Newman. This, no doubt, prepares him especially for the work of the Ordinariate.
He is also an (inspired) expert on all things Biblical! I still have a Hebrew grammar and Psalm Book (interlinear) as well as his unpublished thesis on the Apocalypse plus precious notes he provided us in seminary.
He has taken on many obligations, but I asure you this will be a genuine care for you.
