Bishop William F. Murphy, writing in the diocesan newspaper, said the reorganization reflected an assessment of our strengths and weaknesses but stressed that it would not mean a major change in the content of what we offer, which is the teaching of the Church. Bishop Murphy said in his column, however, that the process of re-evaluation that led to the changes involved an almost year-long process that sought input from over 600 persons. Mr. Dolan, the diocesan spokesman, said that Bishop Murphy's changes of the doctrinal teaching administration had been made solely in reaction to his own mission to teach and spread the faith among a flock that is growing on Long Island mainly among Hispanic and Korean immigrants.
