Fr Anton Teuma has been named bishop by His Holiness Pope Francis and will succeed Mgr Mario Grech as the ninth bishop of the Diocese of Gozo. The Apostolic Nuncio H.E. Alessandro D’Errico made the announcement at the Ta’ Pinu Sanctuary today at noon. Afterwards, the bishop-elect visited our Seminary.
During his priesthood, Fr Teuma has been quite close to the Seminary. Apart from having served as rector for ten years, between 1997 and 2007, he is also a member of the Seminary board and lecturer.
