Fr. Patrick’s Installation as Pastor

June 15, 2019
On Saturday, June 15, Fr. Patrick Burns was formally installed as the pastor of St. Francis Borgia Parish. The ceremony was held during the 4:30 p.m. Mass at the North Church, with Archbishop Jerome Listecki presiding. On this special occasion, the Knights of Columbus served as an honor guard during the entrance procession. Fr. Patrick concelebrated the Mass along with former pastor Fr. Tom Eichenberger and several other priests. During the installation, the archbishop spoke about the importance and role of the pastor in the life of the parish. Then he "introduced" Fr. Patrick to his parish staff, the members of the finance and pastoral councils, and the trustees, as if they were meeting for the first time. Upon their introduction, each one proceeded to the altar and shook Fr. Patrick's hand. After Mass, parishioners congratulated Fr. Patrick in the gathering space and in the church hall where a reception was held in his honor.

On Sunday, June 15, at 9 a.m., Fr. Justin Lopina presided at his first Mass at St. Francis Borgia as our new associate pastor. Fr. Justin came to St. Francis Borgia in 2010 as a pastoral intern from St. Francis de Sales Seminary. In April 2013 he was ordained a deacon and continued serving our parish. Fr. Justin was ordained a priest on May 17, 2014. We are thrilled that his first assignment is as associate pastor right here at St. Francis Borgia.
