Cardinal Dolan gives homily in Canada parish after flight to Ireland ground during high winds

Cardinal Timothy Dolan, archbishop of New York, presided over Mass in an unlikely place on Sunday after his flight was grounded in Canada for days due to high winds.

Dolan, 75, was on United Flight 23 from Newark Liberty Airport on Thursday when it was diverted about 3 hours into the 6.5-hour flight to Dublin, Ireland after a passenger suffered a medical emergency, the airline told CBS News.

The plane was diverted to St. John's, Newfoundland, at about 2:30 a.m. on Friday, according to Flightradar24, so paramedics could assist the ill passenger.
