EVENT: POLICE ATHLETIC LEAGUE’S 46TH ANNUAL SUPERSTAR DINNER HONORING TIMOTHY MICHAEL CARDINAL DOLAN
The Police Athletic League (PAL) honors Timothy Michael Cardinal Dolan with the PAL Superstar Award. Ordained a priest of the Archdiocese of St. Louis in 1976, he served as parish priest for eight years, as secretary to the Apostolic Nuncio in DC, as a professor at Kenrick Seminary and St. Louis University, and as rector of the North American College in Rome. In 2001, he was appointed auxiliary bishop of his home diocese by Pope St. John Paul II, who, a year later, made him archbishop of Milwaukee. Pope Benedict XVI transferred him to the Archdiocese of New York in 2009, and named him a Cardinal in 2012. He has served as President of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, Catholic Relief Services, and the co-chair of the National Jewish-Catholic Dialogue. It was his honor as well to enter the conclave which elected Pope Francis in 2013.
