Dubliner Bishop Kevin Farrell has this evening been installed as one of America's leading prelates with responsibility for the Catholic Diocese of Dallas.

Concelebrating with his brother, Vatican Bishop Brian Farrell, he told the congregation that the Gospel of Jesus, as the Word of God, was not to be accommodated to the culture of the day.
