Bp. Galeone knows how to do it. Maybe we can trade Bishops...

Bp. Galeone is wonderful. I live in his diocese (in fact, in the Cathedral parish) and we want to keep him! Forever!

Actually, he is probably fairly close to retirement by now. He has only been a bishop for about 5 years and this is is first see; he was appointed virtually against his will. He's from Baltimore, I believe, originally, but spent many years in Peru as a missionary.

He has done wonderful things for this diocese in just a short time, particularly in the area of catechizing and "re-Catholicizing" the faithful.
