Harrington chose as his episcopal motto: "Have life more abundantly" (John 10:10).

As auxiliary bishop, Harrington served as vicar of the Office of Pastoral Services for Parishes in the archdiocesan curia, episcopal liaison for the Pope John Paul II Cultural Center in Washington, D.C., and regional bishop for Macomb County, Michigan and St. Clair County, Michigan.

2009

Harrington stated that Notre Dame:"...is choosing to defy the bishops of the United States and turn its back on the Catholic community in its continual defense of the right-to-life. The university’s stance is similar to that of Catholic politicians who say that they are pro-life and then support legislation and vote for programs that foster abortion."

On May 7, 2009, Pope Benedict XVI accepted Harrington's resignation.
