Decision brings a myriad of feelings

This is the first “In Joy and Hope” column Archbishop Murphy wrote for the Catholic Northwest Progress – the official newspaper of the Archdiocese of Seattle. Archbishop Murphy penned this column to share his thoughts on Archbishop Hunthausen’s decision to retire as the spiritual leader of the Church of Western Washington. His central message was one of gratitude for sharing a rich and vibrant ministry with Archbishop Hunthausen during the last four years.
