Bishop
Serratelli to be seventh head of Paterson Diocese
By Greg Tobin
 |
Bishop
Serratelli |
For
the 377,000 Catholics of the Diocese of Paterson, their new chief
shepherd and teacher is no stranger, but a familiar face and voice
from the neighboring diocese. The
Holy See announced June 1 that the resignation of Most Rev. Frank
J. Rodimer, D.D., had been accepted and that Most Rev. Arthur J.
Serratelli, S.T.D., S.S.L., D.D., Auxiliary Bishop, Vicar General
and Moderator of the Curia of the Archdiocese of Newark, will become
the seventh Bishop of Paterson, succeeding Bishop Rodimer who had
been ordinary of the three-county northern New Jersey diocese since
1978.
