The Holy Father, Benedict XVI, has today nominated to one of the most senior positions in the Diocese of Rome, Italy, His Excellency Bishop Filippo Iannone, O.Carm. (Brun), who up until now has been Bishop of the Diocese of Sora-Aquino-Pontecorvo since the 19th June 2009. Together with this office, the Pope has conferred on him the title of Archbishop.
Rome is the Pope’s Diocese to which he nominates the Cardinal Vicar and the “Vicegerente”. Together with the assistant bishops they are responsible for the normal pastoral running of the Diocese.
To Monsignor Filippo Iannone we offer most cordial good wishes from the whole Carmelite Family.
