More on Msgr. Knestout

The Catholic Standard (the official newspaper of the Archdiocese of Washington DC) has more information about Msgr. (soon to be Bishop) Knestout.

Once again, congratulations Msgr. Knestout.

Congratulations to Msgr. Barry Knestout -- Now to be Bishop Knestout!

The parishioners over at St. John the Evangelist (Silver Spring, MD) must be very happy that the former pastor -- Msgr. Barry Knestout -- has been tapped to be the new Auxilary Bishop.

By all accounts (and I have reported this here before), he was well liked by the parishioners and was very dedicated to them and their spiritual well being.

You can read more about it at Whisphers in the Loggia. (H/T to him.)

Congratulations Msgr. Knestout!
