He is a member of Opus Dei, which is neither to be regarded as “conservative” nor “liberal”. Opus Dei is not concerned with these tendencies. It is concerned with the sanctification of daily realities of the lay-faithful in their professional and social lives.

Archbishop Gomez has given his support for the use of the Extraordinary Form in his Archdiocese of San Antonio, TX.
Let us pray for the transition process, for Archbishop Gomez, as well as Cardinal Mahoney. I think the traditionalists ought to be careful in their comments regarding our legitimate ecclesiastiacal authorities. Part of the reason for our communities being relegated to “middle of nowhere” parishes and inconvenient Mass-times, is because too many of us, or at least the more vocal of us, are quite unpleasant to deal with. Part of it is due to pride, but much of it is due to frustration and anger for having been persecuted as a community for decades. Even so, no matter what the cause, there is no excuse for being uncharitable , especially towards the hierarchy.
Instaurare omnia in Christo.
