The celebrations continue for New York City's top Roman Catholic leader, a week after he was promoted to Cardinal.
Dignitaries including Gov. Mario Cuomo and New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg were attending a morning prayer service at St. Patrick's Cathedral on Saturday led by Cardinal Timothy Dolan.
Dolan was elevated to cardinal by Pope Benedict one week ago Saturday. He was back in New York to lead a service on Ash Wednesday, but still continues to receive accolades.
The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey lit the unfinished 1 World Trade Center red on Friday in Dolan's honor.
The cardinal was also to lead a mass at St. Patrick's at 4 p.m.
