Congratulations to Archbishop Timothy Dolan of New York in being elected the president of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops today. He was elected over Bishop Gerald Kicanas of Tucson, who had been the vice-president the last few years.
Archbishop Dolan was the rector of the North American College in Rome for a number of years before being appointed Archbishop of Milwaukee. More recently, he was appointed to the Archdiocese of New York. He is known for his humor and his preaching ability.
May God assist him in his new responsibilities.
