LATIN PATRIARCH
APPOINTMENT 25 October 2020 Times of Israel "Italian Archbishop Pizzaballa appointed new Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem" Archbishop Pierbattista Pizzaballa, the most senior Roman Catholic official in the Middle East, has been appointed by Pope Francis as the new Latin patriarch of Jerusalem.
