Read Preacher Man Page 27


  Dear Cardinal Father Taflick,

  Please find enclosed the ring of your new office. Because of all thy work, churches all over this quadrant are filling. Many lost souls are being reclaimed for the Master. As the number on your own planet reaches a million, this planet needs more than a priest. We are sending hundreds of priests. Your planet needs a Cardinal. I have talked to the Papal Secretary. She has set the Papal seal on Thy documents. The Master has chosen Thee. May He strengthen Thee in the coming days.

  The Holiest Father sends his congratulations, as do I. Do not hesitate to call me regarding any problems with the civil authorities.

  Remember, they have no jurisdiction over Thee or Our Holy Mother Church!

  Zzinn Marsa, sec. to the Holy See.
