Cardinal Grand Master retires due to ill health
Dear Ladies and Knights of the Holy Sepulchre of Jerusalem and friends of the Order, the Cardinal Grand Master of the Equestrian Order of the Holy Sepulchre of Jerusalem, John Patrick Foley has retired due to ill health.
In September 2009, he was diagnosed with leukemia and anemia. “It’s been getting progressively worse, and I get weaker,” Cardinal Foley said. “I didn’t have the energy to perform my duties.”
Please keep our former Cardinal Grand Master in your prayers.
