Priests Needed

I saw this in the NY Times: "Divine Recruits - Serving US Parishes, Fathers Without Borders"

Clearly, it's not news that the number of Catholic priests is significantly less than the number needed. What I enjoyed about this story, though, is that the US is no longer necessarily THE SOURCE of spiritual authority. Priests can come from India, Africa, South America, and provide spiritual care and guidance. A kind of reversal, and somehow an encouraging one.
