We Welcome Bishop Brendan J. Cahill
On September 17, 2026, Pope Leo XIV appointed Most Reverend Brendan J. Cahill, until now Bishop of Victoria in Texas, as the seventh Bishop of the Diocese of Joliet. The appointment was announced in Washington, D.C. by Archbishop Gabriele Caccia, apostolic nuncio to the United States.
A press conference was held the same day at the Cathedral of St. Raymond Nonnatus in Joliet and streamed on the diocesan YouTube channel.
We welcome you and will pray for you, Bishop Cahill.
