This morning it was made public that the Holy Father, Pope Francis appointed Msgr.\u00a0Andrzej Jerzy Zglejszewski, [pronounced \u201cAnjay Skley-chev-ski\u201d] 52, to be an auxiliary bishop of the Diocese of Rockville Centre. \u00a0He was also assigned by the Holy Father to be the Titular Bishop of Nicives.<\/p>\n

Until now, Msgr. Andrzej was the director of the Office of Worship and Co-Chancellor of the Diocese. Andrzej, as he is known to all is a true gift to the Church. \u00a0He is a loyal son of the Church and a good friend to all. \u00a0He is among the most well liked priests I know. \u00a0He has always been kind and friendly to me for the many years that I\u2019ve known him. \u00a0I know he will be a true gift to the Diocese of Rockville Centre. \u00a0His ordination as bishop has been set for March 25th, the Solemnity of the Annunciation.<\/p>\n

Msgr. Andrzej, who speaks some seven (!) languages released this statement:<\/p>\n

\u201cI think everyone is very surprised by the news coming from Rome, and I hope everyone will understand why my heart and mind turns into both wonder and joy,\u201d said Bishop-Elect Zglejszewski. \u201cI am humbled by the Holy Father\u2019s appointment and even though I always wanted to serve God and the Church in the best way I can, I am overwhelmed with the sense of my unworthiness. For that reason, I turn all my emotions and wonders into a song of gratitude. Humbled and in fear of my own unworthiness, I ask for support and prayers. I turn to Mary and Joseph and ask them for their assistance and help. I want, like Joseph, \u2018Not to be afraid\u2019 and respond to the whispers of the Holy Spirit in the same way Mary did, \u2018Fiat Voluntas Tua,\u2019 \u2013 May everything be done everywhere according to God\u2019s will.\u201d<\/p>\n
