More Hierarchy news

It is official, Bishop Michael Warfel was named this morning as the new bishop of Great Falls/Billings, Montana. Since 1996 His Excellency, Bishop Warfel, has been serving as the bishop of Juneau, Alaska.

In the bigger scheme of things, there are still nine vacant dioceses in the United States, with the appointment of a new bishop the Diocese of Great Falls/Billings comes off the list and the Diocese of Juneau gets added to the list.

N.B.
Barring any big news, like a Utah victory over BYU, posting will be light for the remaining ten days of this month, consisting only of a Thanksgiving Day post, our Friday traditio, and my homily.
