Pope names new archbishop of Westminster as part of generational shift in English-speaking hierarchy
Pope Leo XIV has made another high-profile appointment that signals a generational shift in the English-speaking Catholic hierarchy. Leo tapped Bishop Richard Moth to replace the retiring Cardinal Vincent Nichols as archbishop of Westminster in London. The appointment came a day after Leo named 58-year-old Bishop Ronald Hicks to succeed the retiring Cardinal Timothy Dolan as archbishop of New York which is one of the biggest and most important archdioceses in the U.S.
