There are many priests in the US for whom English is a second language. Others who minister in Spanish--their second language.
A Mexican-born priest i know can't get through a homily without at least a half-dozen mistakes.
Might this happen during sacramental rites as well? Probably. Neither his intent nor his fault. He came here as a teenager.
