More photographs of Bishop Byrne's Episcopal Ordination


My friend Irim posted some links to other photographs of last week's episcopal consecration of Bishop Byrne in the comments section of my post about the day. In case other readers have not seen that the links are, firstly, to the cathedral website which has 216 photographs of the ceremonial, and can be viewed here

In addition she found some photographs of the reception at Oscott on the website of the Washington DC Oratorians which can be viewed here. She says she was particularly taken with one of the new Bishop checking his watch, which can be seen here, and one with his family - as was pointed out during the service in the cathedral it is quite unusual for a new bishop to have both his parents present at his consecration - and which can be seen here.
