This Morning Briefing is a bit late as I was editing a report from NCR West Coast correspondent Dan Morris-Young out of Albuquerque. Dan is attending the Association of U.S. Catholic Priests' annual assembly there and will have reports all week. Coming later today, a presentation by Franciscan Sr. Katarina Schuth. It is worth reading, so don't miss it!
