Farewell Mass for Archbishop Gagnon

“Notice that I said, “our archdiocese”; that was intentional because even though I will soon be leaving you as Archbishop of Winnipeg, as Apostolic Administrator and will become Archbishop Emeritus – I share with you a love for this Local Church, its people, its parish communities and apostolic works, as well as a devotion to St. Joseph, Foster Father to Our Lord and Spouse of the Blessed Virgin Mary.” – From Archbishop Gagnon’s final homily from St. Mary’s Cathedral.
