With heartfelt joy and deep gratitude, we warmly welcome the appointment of the Reverend Manuel de Jesús Rodríguez as the new Bishop-Elect of Palm Beach. This morning, we had the privilege of welcoming him during our press conference, marking the beginning of this new chapter for our diocese. Bishop Rodríguez follows in the footsteps of Bishop Gerald M. Barbarito, who has faithfully served our community as chief shepherd for 22 years. We look forward to the future with hope and enthusiasm, and we pray for God’s abundant blessings upon Bishop-Elect Rodríguez as he begins his ministry among us.
