I can assure you, Holy Father, that the Bishops of New Zealand consider themselves to be your loyal collaborators. They are dedicated Bishops who take to heart the strong teaching that you give to the whole Church and call upon their own people to make that teaching their own.

People must be able to see within us and within the Church, not the structures and authority we have, but the presence of Jesus Christ. We must avoid the danger of placing so much emphasis on the "Magisterium" of the Church that we lose the sense of the "Mysterium" of the Church.
