Pope urges western Canadian bishops to be close to their people

Seamus McKelvey of Winnipeg, Manitoba, crashes a group photo with Canadian bishops in front of St. Peter's Basilica March 27. From left are Archbishops Richard Smith of Edmonton, Alberta; Richard Gagnon of Winnipeg, Manitoba; and Bishop Kenneth Nowakowski of the Ukrainian Diocese of New Westminster, British Columbia. The bishops were making their "ad limina" visits to the Vatican to report on the status of their dioceses.

VATICAN CITY – "That's your bishop!" a woman shouted to Seamus McKelvey of Winnipeg, Manitoba, as he leaned in for an impromptu picture with three prelates posing for a professional portrait with St. Peter's Basilica in the background.
