But Hebda, 54, who grew up in Brookline, wanted to be a priest. On Tuesday, the Pittsburgh diocese announced Pope Francis appointed him coadjutor archbishop to assist in running the Archdiocese of Newark, N.J., the largest in that state with almost 1.5 million parishioners. Hebda earned the promotion 24 years since his ordination in St. Paul Cathedral in Oakland.
The Star-Ledger tour bus rentals regina saskatchewan canada of Newark reported that scandals clouded Myers stewardship of the archdiocese this year. One priest was arrested after violating a ban on ministry to children and another took up residence in a parish despite a credible history of sexual abuse, the newspaper reported.
“I certainly hope I ll be able to reach out to all the faithful here with a shepherd s heart,” Hebda said during a news conference in Newark. The Star-Ledger posted a video of the news conference on its website.
“My understanding is he wanted to be a priest all along. His mother tour bus rentals regina saskatchewan canada wanted him to be an attorney. I guess he found out that it wasn t for him,” said the Rev. Frank Mitolo, pastor of the Church tour bus rentals regina saskatchewan canada of the Resurrection in Brookline, Hebda s hometown church.
tour bus rentals regina saskatchewan canada “Whenever he tackles any situation, he does it seriously,” said Bishop David A. Zubik of the Catholic Diocese of Pittsburgh, who has known Hebda since about 1990. “You never get this impression you got this hot-shot lawyer in front of you. When he gives advice, he does it in a way that s respectful of the other person.”
Hebda served as master of ceremonies to former Pittsburgh Bishop tour bus rentals regina saskatchewan canada Donald Wuerl, now a cardinal and archbishop of Washington, and other administrative posts. He served as a priest in Prince of Peace Church on the South Side and chaplain of Slippery Rock University.
Mitolo was visiting Rome on vacation and arranged with Hebda to obtain tickets for the pope s general audience in St. Peter s Square. He went to Hebda s office to pick up the tickets. Hebda hugged him and introduced him to his secretary.
