Bishop Foley Resigns & Msgr. Madden Appointed as Auxiliary in Baltimore

VATICAN CITY, MAY 10, 2005 (VIS) - The Holy Father:

- Accepted the resignation from the pastoral care of the diocese of Birmingham, U.S.A., presented by Bishop David E. Foley, upon having reached the age limit.

Whatever happened to Bishop Gumbleton's resignation? Lost in the mail?

- Appointed Msgr. Denis James Madden, adjunct secretary general of the Catholic Near East Welfare Association of New York, as auxiliary bishop of the archdiocese of Baltimore (area 12,430, population 3,006,607, Catholics 506,587, priests 574, permanent deacons 183, religious 1,426), U.S.A. The bishop-elect was born in Carbondale, U.S.A., in 1940 and ordained a priest in 1967.

I take it he was born in Carbondale, Illinois...
