According to the Archdiocese of Newark, Cardinal Joseph W. Tobin, Archbishop of Newark, will ordain Bishops-Elect Elias R. Lorenzo, Michael A. Saporito and Gregory J. Studerus at 2 p.m. on June 30 in the Cathedral Basilica of the Sacred Heart in Newark.
An evening prayer service will be celebrated in preparation for the ordination on June 29, at 7 p.m.
Each of the new bishops will support Cardinal Tobin in the pastoral care of the archdiocese and will have responsibility for the life and mission of the Church in one of the four counties that comprise the Archdiocese (Bergen, Hudson, Essex, and Union).
Due to the ongoing pandemic and regulations and safety concerns regarding gatherings in buildings, attendance for both services is restricted to pre-ticket only.
To allow all communities to view and participate in service, the Ordination will be live-streamed on the archdiocesan [**YouTube channel**](https://www.youtube.com/user/NwkArchdiocese).
