October 2012 Ordination Dom Claudio Dalla Zuanna
Fr. Claudio Dalla Zuanna, SCJ, former vicar general of the congregation, was ordained archbishop of Beira, Mozambique, on October 7, 2012. Thousands filled a stadium in Beira for the event which lasted over four hours. Crowds followed the new archbishop literally from the moment his plane touched down. “A crowd of at least 500 were at the airport, welcoming him with drums and dance,” said one of the SCJs there for the ordination. Well-wishers joined the archbishop in a procession through the city to the archbishop’s residence.
An interview with the archbishop, as well as a story about the ceremony, is available in English and Italian at the General Administration's website: http://www.dehon.it
