Archbishop of St. Louis

Born on June 30, 1944 in Minneapolis, Minnesota, Archbishop Robert J. Carlson was the oldest, and the only son of Robert Sr. and Jeanne (nee Dorgan) Carlson. In 1950 he began his elementary education at Christ the King Parish in Minneapolis (1950-1955). The family moved to Mt. Prospect, Ilinois in 1955 where he enrolled in Mt. Prospect-Lincoln School (1955-1956), then returned to Minneapolis where he continued his elementary education at Annunciation Parish in Minneapolis (1956-1958). He attended Cretin High School in Saint Paul, Minnesota for his high school education (1958-1962).

In 1962 he began his seminary education at Saint Paul Seminary in Saint Paul earning a Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy in 1966 and a Masters of Divinity degree in 1976.

Archbishop Carlson was ordained to the priesthood on May 23, 1970 by then Archbishop Leo C. Binz, Archbishop of Saint Paul and Minneapolis. He served as Parochial Vicar at St. Raphael in Crystal (1970-1972) and at St. Margaret Mary in Golden Valley (1972-1974). While there he also served as Adminis-trator (1974-1976) until he was named Vocation Director and Vice-Chancellor (1976-1977). In 1977 he began graduate studies at the Catholic University of America, where he earned a Licentiate in Canon Law (1977-1979).

On his return to the Archdiocese of Saint Paul and Minneapolis, he was appointed Chancellor (1979-1985). It was also during this time that he served as pastor of St. Leonard in Minneapolis (1980-1984).

On November 19, 1983 – just thirteen years after his ordination to the priesthood – he was named Aux-iliary Bishop of St. Paul and Minneapolis by His Holiness, Pope John Paul II, choosing for his episcopal motto: Ante Crucem Nihil Defensionis, (“Before the Cross There is No Defense”). He was ordained on January 11, 1984 with then Archbishop John R. Roach as Consecrator and Bishops John F. Kinney and Paul V. Dudley as Co-consecrators. He was named Coadjutor of the Diocese of Sioux Falls on January 13, 1994 and succeeded Bishop Paul V. Dudley as the 7th Bishop of Sioux Falls on March 21, 1995. Less then ten years later he was named Bishop of Saginaw by His Holiness, Pope John Paul II on December 29, 2004 and was installed as its 5th Bishop on February 24, 2005 by Archbishop Gabriel Montalvo, then Apostolic Nuncio to the United States of America.

His Excellency, the Most Reverend Robert J. Carlson was appointed Archbishop of St. Louis by His Holiness, Pope Benedict XVI, on April 21, 2009. He is the 9th Archbishop and the 10th Bishop of St. Louis since its establishment as a diocese in 1826.

One faith, one hope, one Lord, one Church for which he died, one voice, one song we lift in praise to him who was and is and shall be evermore. There is one body, one spirit, as you were called to one hope. One Lord, baptism and faith, one God and Father of all, who is in you all. Though we be many people, diverse with various gifts, we are given to each other for the unity of faith, that we may grow in the knowledge of the Son of God, in the fullness of Christ. —from Ephesians 4: 4-6, 13

Archdiocesan Choir

Many waters cannot quench Love, neither can the floods drown it. Love is strong as death. Greater Love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.Who his own self bare our sins in his own Body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness.Ye are washed, ye are sanctified, ye are justified, in the Name of the Lord Jesus;Ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, That ye should shew forth the praises of him Who hath called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.I beseech you, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies, a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.

English translation, sung in Latin

O praise the Lord, ye children, praise the name of the Lord.Blessed be the name of the Lord from hence forth now and for ever.From the rising of the sun even unto its setting, the name of the Lord is praiseworthy.The Lord is high above all nations, his glory is above the heavens.Who is like the Lord our God, who dwells on high.and yet he considers the lowly in heaven and on earth?Lifting up the needy from the dust, and raising the poor from the dungheap,so that he may place him with the princes of his people.Who makes the sterile woman to dwell in her house, the joyful mother of children.Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.As it was in the beginning, is now and will be forever. Amen. —from Psalm 113

Rejoice, rejoice, rejoice, give thanks, and sing!

With all the angel choirs, with all the saints of earth,pour out the strains of joy and bliss, true rapture, noblest mirth.Your clear hosannas raise, and alleluias loud;while answering echoes upward float, like wreaths of incense cloud.Yes, on through life’s long path, still chanting as ye go,from youth to age, by night and day, in gladness and in woe.Still lift your standard high, still march in firm array,as warriors through the darkness toil, till dawns the golden day.

Sing loud, you oceans. Sing, you deepest regions.Sing, you on dry land. Sing, you winged flocks high-flying.Clap your hands, O you rivers, Come applaud, O you mountains.Come and seek his face for he draws near, judgement to render.He shall judge all the nations, judge with righteousness, and the peoples with justice.Sing to the Lord a new song.

The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the Gospel to the poor:He hath sent me to heal the broken-hearted, to preach deliverance to the captives and recovering of sight to the blind, to preach the acceptable year of the Lord; To give unto them that mourn a garland for ashes,the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; That they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that he might be glorified.For as the earth bringeth forth her bud, and as the garden causeth the things that are sown in it to spring forth; So the Lord God will cause righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the nations.

The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me, because the LORD has anointed me;He has sent me to bring glad tidings to the lowly, to heal the brokenhearted,To proclaim liberty to the captives and release to the prisoners,To announce a year of favor from the LORD and a day of vindication by our God, to comfort all who mourn;To place on those who mourn in Zion a diadem instead of ashes,To give them oil of gladness in place of mourning, a glorious mantle instead of a listless spirit.You yourselves shall be named priests of the LORD, ministers of our God you shall be called.I will give them their recompense faithfully, a lasting covenant I will make with them.Their descendants shall be renowned among the nations, and their offspring among the peoples;All who see them shall acknowledge them as a race the LORD has blessed.

VersesBless the LORD, O my soul! O LORD, my God, you are great indeed!How manifold are your works, O LORD!In wisdom you have wrought them all–the earth is full of your creatures.

They all look to you to give them food in due time.When you give it to them, they gather it;when you open your hand, they are filled with good things.

When you send forth your spirit, they are created, and you renew the face of the earth.May the glory of the LORD endure forever; may the LORD be glad in his works!

I will sing to the LORD all my life; I will sing praise to my God while I live.Pleasing to him be my theme; I will be glad in the LORD.


seCond reAding CorinthiAnS 12: 4-13

English translation, proclaimed in Spanish

LectorA reading from the First Letter of Saint Paul to the Corinthians

Brothers and sisters:There are different kinds of spiritual gifts but the same Spirit; there are different forms of service but the same Lord; there are different workings but the same God who produces all of them in everyone.To each individual the manifestation of the Spirit is given for some benefit.To one is given through the Spirit the expression of wisdom; another the expression of knowledge according to the same Spirit; another faith by the same Spirit; another gifts of healing by the one Spirit; another mighty deeds; another prophecy; another discernment of spirits; another varieties of tongues; another interpretation of tongues.But one and the same Spirit produces all of these, distributing them individually to each person as he wishes.

As a body is one though it has many parts, and all the parts of the body, though many, are one body, so also Christ.For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one Body, whether Jews or Greeks, slaves or free persons, and we were all given to drink of one Spirit.

The Word of the Lord.

AllThanks be to God.

CoMMunion

Because we hold the reception of the Eucharist as a sign of Divine and Ecclesial unity, only practicing Catholics who are free of serious sin and in full unity with the Catho-lic Church should present themselves for Holy Communion. Members of the Orthodox Churches, the Assyrian Church of the East, and the Polish National Catholic Church, respecting the discipline of their own Churches, may also receive Communion with us under the same conditions above. We pray for the full visible unity among all Christians.

3. O loving Father, Lord of life, you are the holy one Who gives to us the saving cup, Jesus your only Son.

4. As once you fed the multitude when loaves and fish were few, O feed us, Lord, the bread and wine that makes us one in you.

5. O Lord, you know our human plight; you bid us come to you; Your yoke is mild, your burden light; refresh our souls anew.

Thou, O God, art praised in Sion, and unto Thee shall the vow be performed in Jerusalem. Thou that hearest the prayer, unto Thee shall all flesh come. Blessed is the man whom Thou choosest and receivest unto Thee. He shall dwell in Thy courts and shall be satisfied with the pleasures of Thy house, Even of Thy holy temple. Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on Thee. Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace because he trusteth in Thee. Trust ye in the Lord forever, for in the Lord, the Lord Jehovah is everlasting strength. Let the people praise Thee, O God, yea, let all the people praise Thee.

Archbishop robert J. carlson

The great seal of the Archdiocese of St. Louis (viewer’s left side) is an azure, blue, field with a gold crusader’s cross, and a crown representing Saint Louis IX, King of France and patron of both the Archdiocese of St. Louis and City of St. Louis. On the extremes of the cross are found the fleur-de-lis flower that recalls the French foundation of the city. In the upper corner of the shield is a silver cres-cent moon symbolizing Mary, the Blessed Virgin, the state of Missouri, and the navigational direction of west. At the bottom of the shield a silver, or argent, wavy band symbolizes a body of water or in this case the Mississippi River. When all the symbols are read together they suggest the description: West of a body of water, the Mississippi River, there is a diocese/city named for the Crusader King of France.

The personal arms of Archbishop Robert J. Carlson (viewer’s right side) was adopted in 1984 when he became Auxiliary of St. Paul–Minneapolis, and is now joined to the coat of arms of the Archdiocese of St. Louis. The garb of wheat on his personal arms represents his native Minneapolis (the “miller of the Midwest”) and the green field alludes to the plains as well as recalling the liturgical color symbol-izing hope. The crescent represents his devotion to Mary and the Latin cross is a symbol of faith. The upper portion of the shield is taken from the arms associated with the bishop’s family and the waves in base allude to the Sioux River and recall his service as bishop of Sioux Falls.

The episcopal coat of arms is completed by the gold processional metropolitan cross behind the shield, the green ecclesiastical hat or “gallero” with its ten tassels on each side, indicates Archbishop Carlson’s episcopal rank, and the motto which appears on an ornamental scroll, are the distinctive heraldic emblems of an archbishop in the Latin Rite of the Roman Catholic Church. The episcopal motto of Archbishop Carlson is, Ante Crucem Nihil Defensionis, this translates as, “Before the Cross There is No Defense.”


the ArChdioCese of st. louis

A Brief History

The Diocese of St. Louis was erected by Apostolic Brief of Pope Leo XIII on July 14, 1826. This divided the Territory of Louisiana making New Orleans the See City of Lower Louisiana and of the Territory of Mississippi, and St. Louis the See City of the State of Missouri and of the adjacent territo-ries. The exact limits of the new diocese of St. Louis were never defined with much exactitude, espe-cially to the West where it was generally stated that the diocese extended to the Rocky Mountains.

On July 20, 1847 the Diocese of St. Louis was raised to the dignity of an Archdiocese by decree of Pope Pius IX, with Bishop Peter Kenrick becoming its first metropolitan. In 1849 the Fourth Provin-cial Council of Baltimore petitioned that the suffragan Sees of St. Louis be the Dioceses of Dubuque, Nashville, Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul. The Holy See granted this petition.

With the growth of the Church in the West, new dioceses and provinces were formed from the origi-nal St. Louis Diocese. In the States that comprised the Upper Louisiana Territory with the portions of Wisconsin and Illinois, there are now forty-two dioceses. The next limitation of the territory of the Diocese of St. Louis was by brief of the Sacred Consistorial Congregation June 16, 1911, which gave to the Diocese of St. Joseph eleven counties and set the northern boundary of St. Louis as the north-ern lines of the counties Pike, Audrain, Boone and Howard; the western boundary as the western lines of the counties Howard, Boone, Cole, Maries, Pulaski, Texas and Howell; the southern boundary the State of Arkansas and the eastern boundary the Mississippi River.

A Brief of the Sacred Consistorial Congregation, dated July 2, 1956, further limited the territory of the Archdiocese of St. Louis. The Archdiocese now covers 5,968 square miles and comprises that part of the State of Missouri bounded on the north by the northern line of Lincoln County; on the west by the western lines of the counties of Lincoln, Warren, Franklin and Washington; on the south by the southern lines of the counties of Washington, St. Francois and Perry, and on the east by the Missis-sippi River.

The Primary Patron of the Archdiocese is St. Louis IX, King of France. His feast is celebrated August 25. The co-secondary patrons are St. Vincent de Paul and St. Rose Philippine Duchesne. St. Vincent’s feast is celebrated on September 27, and St. Rose Philippine’s feast is celebrated on November 18.

The Bishops of St. Louis

The first bishop to use St. Louis as his see city was Bishop Louis William Valentine DuBourg. As Bishop of Louisiana and the Floridas he made St. Louis his episcopal headquarters from 1817 to 1820. It was Bishop DuBourg who brought the Vincentians, the Jesuits and the Religious of the Sacred Heart to St. Louis.

The first bishop of the Diocese of St. Louis was Bishop Joseph Rosati. He was first adminis-trator of both the St. Louis and New Orleans dioceses, in 1826, and then the following year became first bishop of the Diocese of St. Louis,

remaining for several additional years the administrator of New Orleans. It was during Bishop Rosati’s tenure as ordinary of the see that, in 1831, the Cathedral of St. Louis, now called the Basilica of St. Louis, King of France (Old Cathedral), was built.

Bishop Peter Richard Kenrick became ordinary shortly after the death of Bishop Rosati. In 1847 he became the first archbishop of St. Louis when St. Louis became the third metropolitan see in the country.

Archbishop Kenrick was noted for his administrative abilities, his building and his qualities as a scholar but he came to the attention of the world during the First Vatican Council of 1870. At the council he was especially known for his opposition to the concept of papal infallibility, arguing that infallibility was shared by the pope with the assembled bishops of the Church. When he lost in his effort to have the doctrine so interpreted, he accepted the doctrine of infallibility as proclaimed by the council but never again spoke or wrote on the subject.

Just after Archbishop Kenrick was made an archbishop the Holy See granted the petition of the Fourth Provincial Council of Baltimore asking that the original St. Louis Diocese be broken up to make – besides St. Louis – the

Dioceses of Dubuque, Nashville, Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul. Archbishop Kenrick was the metropolitan of these sees.

Archbishop John Joseph Kain, born in Martinsburg, Virginia, was the first native-born American to become Archbishop of St. Louis. He was ordained a priest in the Baltimore Cathedral July 2, 1866 and appointed Bishop of Wheeling in 1875. At the Third Plenary Council of Baltimore, Bishop Kain was one of the leading spirits, being a member of the Deputation of Bishops on the Catechism. He was appointed Co-Adjutor to Archbishop Kenrick July 6, 1893 and Archbishop of St. Louis May 21, 1895.


Archbishop Kain held the third Diocesan Synod of St. Louis in 1898. This is especially notable because here they implemented much of the legisla-tion from the Third Plenary Council of Baltimore, such as, every pastor was to establish a parochial school near his church within two years, & German, Polish & Bohemian Churches were to enjoy the same rights & privileges as English-speaking parishes. He required an annual report on the spiritual & temporal activities of each parish. He identified the location bound by Lin-dell and Maryland for the Cathedral that his successor Archbishop Glennon would build. Archbishop Kain served for eight years as Archbishop of St. Louis. He was remembered for his avid support of the orphan asylums and for his sermons that were plain, direct and full of Christian spirit.

The next phase of the history of the archdiocese could be called the “Glen-non Years” after Cardinal John J. Glennon, who served as ordinary from 1903 until his death in 1946. Like Bishop Rosati, Cardinal Glennon was known as “the Cathedral Builder” but in his case it was because of his work in the erection of the (New) Cathedral Basilica of St. Louis at the corner of Newstead Ave. and Lindell Blvd.

During the first half of the 20th century charitable institutions such as Father Tim Dempsey’s and Father Dunne’s Home for Newsboys also were begun.

Cardinal Glennon had the idea that immigrants would feel more at home in this country if they lived in communities where others spoke the same language. He inaugurated a program, known as the Colonization Movement, where he invited colonists to come from Italy, Austria, Russia, Poland and Germany to his diocese. He helped by building up rural communities and giving aid in the form of parishes and priests to staff the churches. In Dunklin County, for example, he purchased 12,000 acres of land in 1905 and gave it to homesteading Catholic families. Two other communities in rural Missouri, Knobville in Phelps County and Wilhelmina in Dunklin, were set up through Cardinal Glennon and his Colonization Realty Co.

The Church prospered with many vocations during the service of Cardinal Glennon, who died in his native Ireland on the way home from Rome after being made a cardinal at the age of 83.

By the time Cardinal Joseph Ritter arrived, the problem of the city – with which the Church was inevitably involved – was not development of the suburbs but revitalization of the inner city, immediately west of the arch. The revitalization included renewal of the institutions of the archdiocese. It included such innovations as the Alverne Hotel which al-lowed the elderly to live in the center of activity rather than in the coun-try. It included Regina Cleri for older priests, the new chancery building on Lindell Blvd. and new schools and parishes in the county.

But most of all the revitalization was one of the spirit and it was aimed at the poor of the inner city, particularly African-Americans.


The desegregation decree of 1947, inauguration of the Human Rights Commission, development of the inner-city apostolate – these were the tangible actions that could be seen. There were many oth-ers such as Project Equality, a program aimed at achieving integration and better life for the residents of the ghetto.

Cardinal John Joseph Carberry, the Brooklyn native named by Pope Paul VI as fifth Archbishop of St. Louis on February 21, 1968, established five new county parishes and St. Patrick Parish downtown at the Cervantes Convention Center. Also, the high school and parish expansion programs that had been under way at the start of his reign were completed and the effort to guide the inner city toward restoration continued.

The repercussions of Vatican II, which had ended two years before Car-dinal Carberry’s arrival, were being felt throughout the Church. Cardinal Carberry guided the St. Louis Church through the post-Vatican II period, emphasizing allegiance to the papacy and a strong Marian devotion.

He was chosen by his fellow bishops for several leadership roles, includ-ing vice president of the National Conference of Catholic Bishops and a

delegate to three World Synods of Bishops.

He made the archdiocese a national leader in the pro-life movement immediately following the Su-preme Court’s pro-abortion rulings in 1973.

After Cardinal Carberry resigned on his 75th birthday in 1979 he was succeeded by Archbishop John L. May. Like his predecessor, Archbishop May was known as a national leader, serving terms as vice president and then president of the National Conference of Catholic Bishops. He was recognized for having strengthened ties between the Vatican and the U.S. Church.

During his episcopacy, Archbishop May strongly supported the revival of the Archdiocesan Pastoral Council and the formation of deanery and parish councils. He has been a strong advocate of ecumenical dialogue, desegregation of public schools and improved race relations.

Archbishop May’s tenure continued strong financial management of the archdiocese. Among the changes was the consolidation of the seminary system. He named the first chief financial officer, a layperson, and the first woman superintendent of Catholic schools. He instituted an archdiocesan self-insurance program and an improved retirement program for lay employees.

During the 1980s Archbishop May often led calls seeking more aid for the poor. An expansion of Catholic Charities’ programs to assist those in need continued during his administration as well as pro-life assistance for women with crisis pregnancies.


Cardinal Justin Rigali, a Los Angeles native who became one of the most influential Americans at the Vatican, assumed leadership of the arch-diocese March 16, 1994.

During his time in St. Louis, Archbishop Rigali visited most of the par-ishes of the archdiocese. He instituted measures that would eliminate the archdiocesan deficit and he began a $55 million capital campaign that would primarily establish endowments to help support future needs in the archdiocese.

Archbishop Rigali had actively promoted vocations, evangelization efforts and ministry to young people. In 1995 the archdiocese assumed the ad-ministration of Kenrick-Glennon Seminary.

Archbishop Rigali began implementation of the first strategic pastoral plan for the archdiocese. The aim, Archbishop Rigali said, is to be not

only a more efficient Church, but also a holier, more vital Church. The goals are to: foster conversion through prayer and the sacraments; proclaim Jesus Christ in word and in action; renew the commit-ment to Catholic education; serve those in need; and be responsible stewards.

In 2003 Archbishop Rigali was elevated to Cardinal and now serves as the Archbishop of Philadelphia.

Archbishop Raymond Leo Burke, one of the world’s foremost authorities on Roman Catholic canon law, was installed as the ninth Bishop and eighth Archbishop of St. Louis in January of 2004. He guided the Archdiocese of St. Louis in the teachings of the Catholic faith. He led with an unwavering passion for the integrity of Catholic doctrine embodied in the words of Jesus Christ.

Born on June 30, 1948 in Richland Center, WI, Archbishop Burke’s path to the priesthood took him to Rome, where he was ordained by Pope Paul VI on June 29, 1975. One of his first assignments was teach-ing religion at Aquinas High School in LaCrosse, WI. He was ordained a bishop at St Peter’s Basilica, Vatican City, on January 6, 1995. He was installed as the 8th bishop of LaCrosse, Wisconsin before becoming the Archbishop of St. Louis in 2004.

His call to serve God has been expressed through a scholarly devotion to faith. He studied canon law at the Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome and later became the first American to hold the position of Defender of the Bond of the Supreme Tribunal of the Apostolic Signatura, the church’s highest court. He now serves the Holy See as Prefect of the Supreme Tribunal of the Apostolic Signatura.

Symbols

Bishops wear distinctive symbols or insignias, also called regalia, which communicate to the faith-ful and others their special place within the Church. The Order of the Bishop, which grants to those ordained to this rank the fullness of the Sacrament of Holy Orders, is symbolized primarily by three items. These are the ring, miter, and the crosier (or pastoral staff).

The RingThe first insignia to be received by the bishop during the Rites of Ordination is the ring. Upon hand-ing over the ring to the newly ordained bishop, the principal ordaining bishop says, “Receive this ring, the seal of fidelity, adorned with undefiled faith, preserve unblemished the bride of God, the Church.”

The ring symbolizes primarily two things. First, it is a sign of discretion since rings were used to seal private documents. Second, the ring is a sign of the conjugal nature of the relationship between the bishop and the Church. The ring represents the symbolic marriage between the bishop and the Church.

The Miter (the bishop’s hat)The next insignia, which is given to the newly ordained bishop during the Rites of Ordination, is the miter. The principal ordaining bishop places a miter on the head of the new bishop while saying: “Re-ceive the miter, and may the splendor of holiness shine forth in you, so that when the chief shepherd appears, you may deserve to receive from him an unfading crown of glory.”

The miter is a headdress, which points upward toward heaven and can be compared to the laurel wreathes given to victorious athletes. It has become a symbol of how the bishop will be received in heaven with his whole flock and rewarded for his fidelity. 2 Timothy 4:7-8 says, “I have competed well; I have finished the race; I have kept the faith. From now on the crown of righteousness awaits me, which the Lord, the just judge, will award to me on that day, and not only to me, but to all who have longed for his appearance.”

The Crosier (also called the pastoral staff)The last symbol received by the newly ordained bishop is the crosier. The principal ordaining bishop says: “Receive the crosier, the sign of your pastoral office, and keep watch over the whole flock in which the Holy Spirit has placed you as bishop to govern the Church of God.”

Each bishop is a symbol of Christ the Good Shepherd. It is Christ who the bishop is trying to model himself after and it is Christ who each bishop strives to imitate and model for the flock. The crosier also symbolizes the responsibility that the bishop has in leading all to Christ. Sometimes the crosier will be used to scare off the wolves that want to hurt the flock, and other times it can be used to pull the sheep back if they begin to wander off. The crosier tells us that the bishop is a leader after Christ’s own heart.


The Pectoral CrossWhile not part of the Rites of Ordination another symbol of the bishop, and a relatively new addition to the symbols of the bishop, is the pectoral cross. It is called pectoral because it is worn over the pec-tus or breast of the bishop, close to his heart, and its use began between the 17th and 18th century.

Traditionally, the bishop will take the cross, kiss the cross and while placing it over his neck say the following short prayer, “Munire me digneris.” This is a prayer, which is asking the Lord for three things,

For protection against all who wish him harm•To be able to always remember the Passion of Christ•Keep in mind the success of those who have professed their faith in Christ•

The Bishop’s ChairThe bishop’s chair or throne in his primary church is called a cathedra, and this is why this primary church is called a cathedral. From this chair the bishop presides at Mass and other solemn celebra-tions. The bishop is always the leader of prayer in his diocese. Because of this, when the Rites of Ordination of a Bishop take place in the bishop’s cathedral church, and he is to become the Ordinary Bishop of that Diocese, he is led to this chair after having received the symbols of his office as bishop. This symbolizes that the bishop has taken his place as the ordinary of the diocese.

Originally, this chair was the place from which the bishop would authoritatively preach and teach to those present in the church. Because of this, the bishop’s chair, or cathedra, is a sign of his authority to proclaim the Good News of Jesus Christ and to teach the great truths of our faith to the Body of Christ, the Church. The bishop is the primary preacher, teacher and catechist of the diocese. Finally, the bishop’s chair also represents the unity of faithful around that which is taught by the community’s good shepherd, the bishop.

Coat of ArmsA bishop’s coat of arms is distinguished by a sign of his rank, an ecclesial hat. That hat, placed over the shield, was worn in processions, as late as 1870. The hat is low-crowned, flat, and wide brimmed. The hat is green and hanging from it are twelve green tassels, six on each side. There’s also a proces-sional cross above the shield. The cross on a bishop’s coat of arms has one bar; an archbishop’s cross has two. The design of the shield itself differs from bishop to bishop.
