The Secretary becomes Prefect

This morning the Holy Father Pope Benedict XVI appointed his long-time Personal Secretary, Monsignor Georg Ganswein Prefect of the Pontifical Household, raising him to the dignity of Archbishop entrusted with Titula See of Urbisaglia (it's in central Italy).  Archbishop-elect Ganswein replaces Cardinal Harvey, who was recently appointed Archpriest of the Basilica of Saint Paul Outside the Walls.

Congratulations, Archbishop-elect Ganswein!
