How blessed are we to have an Archbishop like Timothy Michael Dolan? The man exudes joy in his faith and in his priesthood. This is a great shot of the Archbishop at today's St. Patrick's Day parade here in the Big Apple (via the NY Daily News).
Also, don't miss reading the Archbishop's St. Patrick's Day pastoral letter issued today. It's about the sacrament of confession and you can find the entire text on his blog, "The Gospel in the Digital Age." It's very inspirational and a reminder of what St. Patrick's life was truly all about; living and spreading the Faith.

Not to be a complete liturgical nazi, but why is Archbishop Dolan wearing a stole? He is in neither choir dress nor is he presiding/celebrating over a liturgy. I'm just curious.
Anonymous,
I was wondering the same thing myself. The only thing I could think of is that, possibly, the archbishop was blessing something outside the cathedral and still had the stole on from that? I did notice in another picture in the NY Daily News that there is a statue of St. Patrick behind him somewhere. It's obscured in this shot. He may have just blessed the statue.
