CACINA LEADERSHIP CHANGES FOR 2022

Announcing the Retirement of Bishop Ron Stephens

Bishop Ron Stephens has announced his retirement effective immediately.

Bishop Ron has led the Diocese of Holy Trinity for the past several years.  He also served as Presiding Bishop of CACINA several years ago.

We thank God for Bishop Ron's service and leadership in the church, and we will continue to count on Bishop Ron's calm, pastoral presence and wisdom as a retired bishop in CACINA.

We also continue our prayers for Bishop Ron as he continues to struggle with some major heart problems that continue to threaten his life.

God bless you, and thank you Bishop Ron for giving so much of yourself for the greater good of Christ's Church

Combining of San Damiano Diocese with Holy Trinity Diocese

 

With the retirement of Bishops Santore and Stephens, the College of Bishops has directed that the Diocese of San Damiano be combined with the Diocese of Holy Trinity.  Bishop Michael Theogene will serve as Diocesan Bishop and Bishop Monica Kennedy will continue to serve as Auxiliary Bishop of Diocese of Holy Trinity and all parishes and missions of Diocese of San Damiano will become parishes and missions of Diocese of Holy Trinity.Our national church web site will be updated to reflect these changes in the near future.
Thank you for your patience and support as the newly elected take on their positions and the logistics of realignment are put in place.
