Hundreds of people attended Archbishop Michael Byrnes’ first mass at the cathedral last night, and while it may have been his first, it was the last one for Archbishop Savio Hon Tai Fai, who had been serving as the apostolic administrator of the local archdiocese since June 6.

Father Jeff San Nicolas said, “One individual who has helped us to get to this place of joy this place of thanksgiving we have today this time where we can welcome Archbishop Byrnes, the individual who has needs to be recognized and if you will help me to give him a round of applause, Archbishop Savio Hon Tai Fai.”

Archbishop Hon began his journey back to Rome today to continue serving in his position as the secretary for the Congregation of the Evangelization of Peoples.
