Dear Brother Priest

I am just writing to inform you that Bishop Barry has had a nasty chest cold that has possibly gone to pneumonia. He went into Hospital on Monday morning and they are working on helping him recover. His condition this morning is reported as stable. He is a bit miserable. Please keep him in your prayers

God bless

Reverend Rick Loughnan

Vicar General

Let us pray that the Lord will quickly and completely restore Bishop Barry to health in His service.
