Archbishop Thompson calls faithful during installation to be ‘bridges of unity’
July 28 was a day of joy for Catholics across central and southern Indiana as Archbishop Charles C. Thompson was installed as the seventh archbishop of Indianapolis during a festive Mass celebrated in SS. Peter and Paul Cathedral in Indianapolis. And participating in it were scores of clergy and other faithful from the Archdiocese of Louisville, Ky., and the Diocese of Evansville, Ind., two local Churches that Archbishop Thompson has called home. These included many of Archbishop Thompson’s family and friends. (Page 1)

Archbishop calls all to ‘keep the end in mind’ during prayer service
The sound could be heard even at the front of SS. Peter and Paul Cathedral in Indianapolis—three solid knocks by Archbishop Charles C. Thompson on a door in the narthex, seeking entrance to the cathedral he would officially “possess” the next day. The knocks came at the beginning of the Solemn Evening Prayer service on July 27, the evening before the 56-year-old bishop would be installed as the seventh shepherd of the Archdiocese of Indianapolis.

Youths lead the chorus of support for new archbishop
At 15, Logan Struewing had a wonderfully-youthful reaction to being the youngest person chosen to welcome Archbishop Charles C. Thompson during his installation Mass at SS. Peter and Paul Cathedral in Indianapolis on July 28. “It’s especially cool to have this honor,” said Logan, a member of Holy Spirit Parish in Indianapolis. His enthusiasm was even higher after he had a short conversation with the new archbishop. The experience of the teenager reflected the positive reactions that people shared about Archbishop Thompson on the day he became the seventh archbishop of Indianapolis. (Page 9)
