Changes at the DAC

Msgr. Eric Barr retired on June 30 as vicar general, ready to give all his time and efforts to pastoring Holy Family Parish. June 30 was Becky Ackerman’s last day as well. Ackerman served at the Diocesan Tribunal from July 2001 until January 2008 when she joined the Department of Educational Services, first with the youth ministry office and then as administrative assistant to the education office. Bishop David Malloy was the main celebrant at a special Mass held at the Diocesan Administration Center that day. A luncheon followed.

For information on this event and on other changes at the DAC this year, see the July 10 issue of The Observer.
