I must admit that I have not really heard much about Bishop Vigneron , but based on this piece I would tend to have hope that good things will follow his synod.  I appreciate the concerns about clericalism but at least this Bishop is using a language that speaks of hope and positive change, or following what both Vatican II and our current Pope as asking of us all.  I do not expect the same experience here in our Diocese however, and that is depressing.
