Pope Francis names Bishop Frank Leo to lead Archdiocese of Toronto in Canada appeared on www.catholicnewsagency.com by Hannah Brockhaus.
The Metropolitan Archdiocese of Toronto covers the territory of the Greater Toronto Area, capital of the province of Ontario. It has 225 parishes, almost 400 priests, and close to 2 million Catholics.
“I thank Pope Francis for the confidence he has placed in me. This was a most unexpected appointment, yet I have learned throughout my priesthood and service to the Church that God’s special plans for us unfold in unexpected moments that lead to tremendous blessings,” Leo said.
Cardinal Collins said he offers his prayers, best wishes, and support to Leo in his new role.
“His knowledge of the Church, both in Canada and around the world, as well as his unfailing service over many years, demonstrates his commitment to serve joyfully and faithfully,” he said.
Leo is the son of two Italian immigrants. He was born in Montréal in 1971 and entered the city’s seminary in 1990.
He was ordained a priest for the Archdiocese of Montréal on Dec. 14, 1996.
