SPECIAL
ENVOY FOR 475TH ANNIVERSARY OF FIRST DIOCESE IN SOUTH AMERICA
Vatican
City, 18 October 2012 (VIS) - Made public today was a letter, written
in Latin and dated 3 October, in which the Holy Father appoints

Ecuador, as his special papal envoy to celebrations marking the 475th
anniversary of the first diocese of South America, now the
archdiocese of Cuzco, Peru, due to take place from 24 to 28 October.
In his

because she herself has a profound relationship with it".
