Roman Catholic Bishop of Lindisfarne

Last updated

The Catholic Diocese of Lindisfarne is a titular see of the Catholic Church. The diocese existed from the seventh century until Bishop Aldhun moved it to Durham in 995.

In 1970, the Pope Paul VI revived the see of Lindisfarne (Latin: Lindisfarna) as the name of a titular see. The first three bishops to hold the title served as auxiliary bishops in the Archdiocese of Westminster. The fourth is an apostolic nuncio and holds the title with the personal title of archbishop.

Bishops in the Catholic Church Ordained ministers of the Catholic Church

In the Catholic Church, a bishop is an ordained minister who holds the fullness of the sacrament of holy orders and is responsible for teaching doctrine, governing Catholics in his jurisdiction, sanctifying the world and representing the Church. Catholics trace the origins of the office of bishop to the apostles, who it is believed were endowed with a special charism by the Holy Spirit at Pentecost. Catholics believe this special charism has been transmitted through an unbroken succession of bishops by the laying on of hands in the sacrament of holy orders.
