Delay In Roman Catholic Diocese

The Roman Catholic Diocese of Biloxi will have to wait a little longer for its new bishop.
Diocese officials announce Monsignor Louis Kihneman needs to have surgery and must delay his planned February 17 ordination.
Kihneman, now a priest of the Diocese of Corpus Christi in Texas, was announced as Biloxi’s fourth bishop in December.
He would take over as leader of 58,000 Catholics in South Mississippi from Bishop Roger Morin, who reached the mandatory retirement age of 75 nearly a year ago.
Dixon says a new ordination date will be announced once Kihneman recovers from his colon condition.
