The Holy Father, just minutes ago, announced that two prelates from the United States, Archbishop Edwin F. O’Brien, formerly of Baltimore and Archbishop Timothy Dolan of New York will be given the red hat during the upcoming February 18th consistory.
The appointments of O’Brien and Dolan were expected in many ways, but remain good news for all of us in the United States.
Congratulations, Cardinal-designates O’Brien and Dolan.
