Pope Francis appoints Tucson Bishop Weisenburger as new Archbishop of Detroit

To All Members of NACPA and NACPA Friends and Supporters,

In an early morning announcement Feb. 11, Pope Francis appointed Bishop Edward J. Weisenburger, 64, the current bishop of Tucson, Arizona, to be Detroit's sixth archbishop and 10th ordinary, succeeding Detroit Archbishop Allen H. Vigneron, 76, whose resignation — submitted upon his 75th birthday as required by canon law — has been accepted by the pope. Archbishop-elect Weisenburger will be installed during a solemn Mass on March 18 at the Cathedral of the Most Blessed Sacrament in Detroit. (Caption, DetroitCatholic.com.
