As Bishop John Smith nears the mandatory age of retirement, Pope Benedict XVI has named the Very Rev. David O'Connell, C.M. as the coadjutor bishop of the Diocese of Trenton.
Fr. O'Connell, 55, served as president of the Catholic University of America in Washington, DC for 12 years. Father may be familiar to many due to his appearances on CBS, ABC, and PBS, for discussions on the Faith.
Fr. O'Connell is scheduled to be ordained to the episcopacy on July 30 at the Cathedral of St. Mary of the Assumption in Trenton, NJ.
