The Vatican Press Office reported this Tuesday, October 17, that Pope Francis has appointed Bishop Emmanuel Tois as the new Auxiliary Bishop of Paris (France).

The elected Auxiliary Bishop was until now Vicar General of the Parisian Archdiocese, led by Bishop Laurent Bernard Ulrich, who assumed the main French see in May 2022, following the resignation of the now Archbishop Emeritus, Bishop Michel Aupetit.

With the appointment of Bishop Tois, whose episcopal consecration will be on November 17 in the church of Saint Sulpice, the Archdiocese of Paris will have two auxiliary bishops. The other is Bishop Philippe Marsset.
