Simpler, less formal celebrations mark new archbishop's welcome
Frank Cognata, archdiocesan chief development officer who is overseeing the reception planning, said the receptions traditionally have served as a way for the new archbishop to meet with family and friends and selected priests, deacons, religious and lay leaders from the archdiocese.
“It’s always a great opportunity for the archbishop not only to celebrate but gather with the leaders of the archdiocese,” said Cognata.
The receptions for Archbishop Carlson, said Cognata, were opened to include the general public.
