Rorate Caeli

A Thomist Bishop in Suisse Romande


Father Charles Morerod, O.P., Secretary of the International Theological Commission and rector of the Pontifical University of Saint Thomas Aquinas (the Angelicum) - one of the men responsible for the reform of ecclesiastical studies of philosophy and also chosen as one of the Vatican representatives in the doctrinal dialogues with the Society of Saint Pius X - will have his name announced tomorrow by the Holy See as the new Bishop of the very important Swiss Diocese of Lausanne, Geneva, and Fribourg. The See of Fribourg will have as its bishop a respected Thomist scholar (he is considered orthodox by many) in a strategic location in Central-Western Europe. [Kipa/Apic - tip: FC]

Our best wishes to the future bishop: Félicitations, Révérend Père!
