SHARE ON: The new Bishop of the Diocese of Sault Ste. Marie, Bishop Thomas Dowd with Pope Francis in 2018. Photo supplied
Grade 7 and 8 students at École Saint-Joseph in Blind River recently had the opportunity to meet virtually the new Bishop of the Diocese of Sault Ste. Marie.
Bishop Thomas Dowd shared some interesting, often comical, stories of his life as a priest and then now as a bishop in the Catholic Church.
Usually when a new bishop is appointed, they will visit all the schools and communities, but with COVID-19, that is not an option at this time so virtual meetings are the preferred option.
