The Bay Area Catholic community gathered in San Francisco Saturday to support Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone. Family picnics were held at Sue Bierman Park, with many people enjoying games and live entertainment, as they wrote messages of appreciation to Cordileone.

Cordileone has been a controversial figure these past months for his views on sexual abstinence and homosexuality. But that hasn't stopped some folks from standing by his side.

"I think his stance has been misunderstood, misinterpreted by a lot of people, and I hope that will change," Fr. Patrick Lee said. "That as time goes on, what he's doing would be understood and appreciated."

Attendees also wore blue to Saturday's event to show their solidarity and support for the archbishop.
