Bishop Coyne appointed to head Vermont diocese
Pope Francis has named Auxiliary Bishop Christopher J. Coyne of Indianapolis to head the Diocese of Burlington, Vt. Bishop Coyne, 56, succeeds Bishop Salvatore R. Matano, who was installed last January as the ninth bishop of Rochester, N.Y. The appointment was announced on Dec. 22 in Washington by Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigano, apostolic nuncio to the United States. Bishop Coyne, 56, has been an auxiliary bishop in Indianapolis since 2011 and was vicar general. (Page 1)
