VATICAN CITY, JUN 25, 2002 (VIS) - The Holy Father:

- Appointed Bishop Timothy Michael Dolan, auxiliary of the archdiocese of St. Louis, U.S.A., as metropolitan archbishop of Milwaukee (area 12,323, population 2,222,364, Catholics 685,004, priests 713, permanent deacons 164, religious 3,226), U.S.A

I understand he is a good Bishop. Former rector of Kenrick Seminary in St. Louis. Seems rather unusual that one is moved from Auxiliary Bishop to Archbishop in one step.

I am not Catholic, but have heard from some Catholic friends that in St. Louis he is known as a "conservative." If so, the people in Milwaukee won't know what hit them...
