In union with my brothers and sisters in Christ throughout the Diocese of Arlington, I congratulate Archbishop Gabriele Giordano Caccia on his appointment as Apostolic Nuncio to the United States of America by Pope Leo XIV.

Archbishop Caccia has served the Church admirably throughout his priesthood, particularly in the diplomatic corps of the Holy See including his role as Apostolic Nuncio to Lebanon and the Philippines. Most recently, Archbishop Caccia has served as Permanent Observer of the Holy See to the United Nations.

I also express my gratitude to Cardinal Christophe Pierre, who has served the Church in the United States as Apostolic Nuncio for ten years in many fruitful and sacrificial ways. Cardinal Pierre has been a tremendous gift to the Church and advisor to our Holy Father, and his tenure has been marked by a zeal for bringing Christ to the peripheries of society and culture.

Together with Archbishop Paul Coakley, President of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, and all my brother bishops, I assure Archbishop Caccia of my prayerful support and that of the faithful of the diocese, and I pray that God blesses him as he assumes his responsibilities as Apostolic Nuncio, serving Our Lord, the Church, and the Holy Father with continued devotion to the Gospel.
