Criterion Q&A with Archbishop Joseph W. Tobin
The Archdiocese of Indianapolis has a new shepherd. On Oct. 18, Archbishop Joseph W. Tobin was appointed archbishop of Indianapolis by Pope Benedict XVI. He succeeds Archbishop Emeritus Daniel M. Buechlein, who served as the archdiocese’s spiritual leader for 19 years but was granted early retirement by the Holy Father because of health reasons last year.
The day before the Oct. 18 public announcement of his appointment, Archbishop Tobin talked with The Criterion about how his life and ministry have prepared him to lead the archdiocese. (Page 1)

Priests, religious and laity welcome new archbishop
Willing to adapt his schedule for the opportunity to witness “a historic event,” Jim Kenney made the early morning drive from southern Indiana to Indianapolis on Oct. 18—the day that Archbishop Joseph W. Tobin was introduced as the new archbishop of the archdiocese. A member of St. Anthony of Padua Parish in Clarksville, Kenney was already planning to come to Indianapolis for a meeting later that day when he learned the night before about the press conference at SS. Peter and Paul Cathedral. (Page 8)

Father Barron reflects on the Holy Land and role of beauty in evangelization
Catholics across central and southern Indiana became familiar during the past year with Father Robert Barron, a priest of the Archdiocese of Chicago, through viewing and studying his 10-part documentary series titled “Catholicism.” He sat down for an interview with The Criterion on Sept. 30 and spoke about his documentary series, the Holy Land and the importance of beauty in the life of faith. Our story is the second part of an edited version of that interview. (Page 20)
