The Vatican said in its daily
bulletin on Thursday that Pope Leo XIV has made his first
appointment since being elected the leader of the Catholic
Church a week ago.
It said the American-Peruvian pontiff has appointed Father
Miguel Ángel Contreras Llajaruna, S.M., episcopal vicar for
Consecrated Life of the diocese of Callao and superior of the
América del Sur district of the Marist Fathers, as auxiliary
bishop of the diocese of Callao, Peru, assigning him the titular
see of Babra.
