Richard Henning Installed As Boston Archbishop

Richard Henning has been installed as the seventh Roman Catholic Archbishop of Boston. 

 

The installation and mass for the 60-year-old Henning took place yesterday at the Cathedral of the Holy Cross. 

 

The former bishop of Providence succeeds the retiring Cardinal Sean O'Malley, who has led Boston area Catholics for over two decades. 

 

O'Malley stayed on for five years past the normal retirement age of 75 for Catholic bishops at the request of Pope Francis.
