Welcome Bishop Robert Barron
Pope Francis has appointed Bishop Robert Barron the next bishop of the Diocese of Winona-Rochester. Read his statement HERE.
He is widely known for the organization he founded called Word on Fire. Bishop Barron is also one of the most followed Catholics on social media, especially on YouTube. On top of that he is a holy man and, we hope, will be a great shepherd for our diocese.
