Archbishop Blázquez talking to consecrated women in Chile.

Rome, June 16, 2011. The apostolic visitator to the consecrated men and women of Regnum Christi, Archbishop Ricardo Blázquez of the archdiocese of Valladolid, Spain, concluded his apostolic visitation this past June 7.

As announced last fall, the Holy See gave Archbishop Blázquez the task of carrying out an apostolic visitation to the consecrated members of Regnum Christi, in coordination with Cardinal Velasio De Paolis, C.S., the papal delegate for the Legion of Christ and the Regnum Christi Movement.

Archbishop Blázquez is now writing up his report, which he will turn in to the Holy See at the end of the month. This document will contain his observations and recommendations after interviewing the consecrated members and his analysis of the information he received during the visitation. The Holy See will then evaluate the report and will make the appropriate decisions about future guidelines and statements.
