The world’s youngest Catholic bishop was consecrated in Ukraine Sunday.
Bishop Stepan Sus, 38, was consecrated a bishop in Kyiv's Cathedral of the Resurrection of Christ on January 12.
The Synod of Bishops of the Ukrainian Greek-Catholic Church canonically elected Sus to be a Curial Bishop of the Major Archeparchy of Kyiv-Halyč. Pope Francis confirmed his selection on November 15, 2019.
The bishop said he found out about his appointment two days after running a 10k in the Marines Marathon in Washington D.C. with wounded Ukrainian veterans.
