Malcolm Ranjith and the bloggers

It's very nice to see how much support Archbishop Malcolm Ranjith has among the Catholic bloggers. It's really wonderful how a prelate from a tiny island with a small minority of Catholics has managed to capture (perhaps without his knowledge) the attention of bloggers in the US and UK, even after he left his job in Rome.

Here are Fr Z, Fr Tim Finigan and NLM expressing joy at Archbishop Ranjith's elevation to the Cardinalate.

Fr Tim says:
Glory, praise and thanks be to God Archbishop Ranjith is indeed on the list. (Cue: Alleluia chorus.) It is a great blessing for the Church that such a humble, devout, kindly yet courageous prelate should be raised to the purple. If anyone deserves such a position in Holy Mother Church it is him. God bless Cardinal-elect Ranjith and congratulations to the Church in Sri Lanka - though I have to say that we all hope that he will return to Rome either as the head of a dicastery or (whispering quietly) an even higher office. 
 That makes me proud!
