Archbishop of Glasgow to govern Archdiocese of St Andrews and Edinburgh

The Catholic Archbishop of Glasgow has been chosen to govern the Archdiocese of St Andrews and Edinburgh following the resignation of Cardinal Keith O'Brien.

The Pope made the announcement today and the Most Revd Philip Tartaglia will be in the post until a new Archbishop is appointed.  

Archbishop Tartaglia said: "These are painful and distressing times for the Archdiocese, I also feel pained and distressed. With the grace of God, I will do my very best to oversee and govern the Archdiocese until the appointment of a new Archbishop. I ask for your prayers."

Cardinal O'Brien is facing allegations of inappropriate behaviour dating back to the 1980s, which he strongly denies.

A Monthly Gift Of $11 Makes A World Of Difference

In a world of fake news there’s never been a greater need for quality Christian journalism. Premier’s mission is to provide the Church with the most up to date and relevant news, told from a Christian perspective. But we can’t do it without you.

Unlike many websites we haven't put up a paywall — we want to keep our journalism free at the point of need and as open as we can. Premier’s news output takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. No one in the USA is sharing news like we are across radio, magazines and online so please help us to continue that today.

For a monthly gift of $11 or more we’d also be able to send you a free copy of the brand new Premier Bible, a wonderful Anglicised version of the NLT packed with exclusive bonus content, reading plan and resources to help you get the most out of scripture.

Your monthly support will make a world of difference. Thank you.
