A call from a Washington, D.C., number can be easy to ignore. For these bishops, it was the Apostolic Nuncio calling on behalf of the Holy Father.

In this episode of 5 Minutes With a Bishop, bishops share their memories of receiving the call from His Eminence Cardinal Christophe Pierre, Apostolic Nuncio to the United States, informing them that the Holy Father had named them to the episcopacy, and how they received that request in prayer and obedience. We are grateful for their "yes" to the will of the Father.

Featuring Archbishop Richard Henning, Bishop Louis Tylka, Bishop Coffey, Bishop Lewandowski, Bishop Pipta, Bishop Walsh of Gaylord, Bishop Collaccico, Bishop Fleming, Bishop Schlesinger of Atlanta, Bishop Izen, Bishop Konzen, Bishop Battersby, Bishop Michael Martin, OFM Conv., and Bishop Stephen Parkes.
