“ Thank you Holy Father Pope Francis” for Cardinal Charles Maung Bo from Myanmar

82-b

 

Our dear Holy Father Francis,

 

I would like extend my heart-felt joy to you for listening my poor voice of request on creating a Cardinal from our 4 Archbishops in Myanmar on 24 November 2014. My name is Joseph Kung Za Hmung @ Win Hlaing Oo and I am a Catholic lay person. I am running a media business so-called “ Gloria News Journal” which is a monthly paper, streamlining of Catholic teachings and news in Myanmar. My webpage is www.glorianewsmm.com

 

There was an occasion for questions and answers arranged by Archbishop Charles Bo from priests, youth, laity and religious. 5 persons were selected to have own questions and raised to Papal Envoy His Eminence Oswald Cardinal Gracias, Archbishop of Bombay for celebration of 500 Jubilee of the Arrival of Catholic Mission to Myanmar  ushered by Sr. Christine May.  I was one of them, chosen to ask a question to the Papal envoy on 24 November 2014.

 

Unluckily I was the last person to ask question to the envoy but I was finally refused by two priests saying that no more time for me (actually there was a time of a priest’s solo after question). Finally I managed well to reach my question and appealing letter to the envoy His Eminence Oswald Cardinal Gracias on 24 November 2014 through Fr. Maurice Nyunt Wai. Luckily the envoy answered my question and request to the public in English saying that he did not know the process of Cardinal selection and creation but he will surely give my letter to the Pope. His answer in English was not translated into Burmese.

 

After a month, of course on 4 th January 2015, our Holy Father announced new 20 Cardinals and one of them is our beloved Archbishop Charles Bo, Yangon, Myanmar. Your announcement is thrilling the hearts of people of Myanmar coinciding our independence day alike. Today, my request is fulfilled and granted by the Holy Spirit.

 

I am deeply indebted that Holy Father gave your paternal attention to the voice of lay people throughout the world. I believe the saying that “ Man proposes and God disposes” is actualized today. I thank you Holy Father for giving us Cardinal Charles Maung Bo for Myanmar Catholic Church. May our Lady guide and protect you in your reforming strategy for Catholic Church.
