Bishop Richard Malone is in Rome Tuesday through Friday with the bishops of New York State. The bishops are meeting with the Pope as part of their “Visit to the Treshold of the Apostles,” also known as “ad limina.”

The Pope holds the ad limina every five to seven years with the bishops of each geographic region to receive detailed reports about what has been happening in local dioceses, express concerns and share advice.

In a statement from the Buffalo Catholic Diocese, Malone said he is “carrying with him the prayers and intentions of all the people” of the diocese, as well as his “prayer for the healing of the diocese.”
