The Board of Trustees, the Board of Regents, the Administration, Faculty, Staff and Students of Bethlehem University congratulates His Beatitude Patriarch Pierbattista Pizzaballa, on his appointment as the Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem, after serving as the Apostolic Administrator for the past four years.
His Beatitude is a good friend of Bethlehem University from the time he was serving as the Custos of the Holy Land.
We pray that God will give His Beatitude the wisdom and courage he will need as he serves the people in the Patriarchate.
