A New Bishop for the Diocese

       Bishop Nicholas Hudson was Installed as Bishop of Plymouth on Saturday 29th November at Plymouth Cathedral. 

Senior Catholic clergy, including His Excellency Archbishop Miguel Maury Buendía, Apostolic Nuncio to Great Britain, Cardinal Vincent Nichols, the Most Reverend John Wilson, Metropolitan Archbishop of Southwark and archbishops and bishops from England and Wales attended the Installation Mass.

The Bull of Appointment from Pope Leo XIV highlighted the Church's confidence in Bishop Nicholas's appointment:

"We thought of you, having carefully considered your pastoral achievements in the duties you have undertaken in the Archdiocese of Westminster, together with your spiritual and human gifts and your expertise in administration, which make you suitable for advancement to this greater office."

Please keep Bishop Nicholas in your prayers as he assumes this new role in the Diocese.
