New Roman Catholic Bishop of Charleston welcomed

It was one of his first excursions into the diocese since becoming bishop March 25. It was his first Palm Sunday procession with the Lowcountry’s Latino parishioners.

It was his first exposure as celebrant of the Mass to a vibrant and mixed community of worshippers at St. Thomas the Apostle Catholic Church in North Charleston.

This was the active expression of the faithful in the Catholic Diocese of Charleston ”” prayer, song, re-enactment, togetherness, worship ”” and the Most Rev. Robert E. Guglielmone, a New Yorker if there ever was one, was there to share the moment.

Members of St. Thomas welcomed the new bishop, saying they were grateful for his visit and excited about his appointment to the diocese after an 18-month wait.
