On Sunday, Archbishop Bernard A. Hebda—who was selected by Pope Francis to temporarily lead the Archdiocese of Saint Paul and Minneapolis—held his first mass in the Twin Cities.
Hebda’s official title is apostolic administrator of the archdiocese; a role he’s held since former Archbishop John Nienstedt resigned last month.
And on Sunday, pews were full and standing room was limited as parishioners gathered at the Cathedral of Saint Paul to see and hear from Hebda.
“Pope Francis has been reminding us that we are not only called, but we are sent,” Hedba said during mass.
