Pope Francis has appointed Bishop Petrus Canisius Mandagi of Amboina as archbishop of Merauke in Papua.
The appointment was announced by the archdiocese’s secretary-general, Fr Hendrikus Kari-wop, on Nov. 11 during a Mass at St Francis Xavier Cathedral Church that was broadcast online. Abp. designate Mandagi of the Congregation for Missionaries of the Sacred Heart has been the archdiocese’s apostolic administrator since August last year following the death of its previous administrator, Bishop John Philip Saklil of Timika. “Because I believe it is God’s will. I must not reject God’s will,” he said on Nov. 12.
