Belize awaits new bishop after puzzling resignation (Pillar)

Pope Francis recently accepted the resignation of Bishop Christopher Glancy, 63, as auxiliary bishop of Belize’s sole diocese. The diocesan bishop died in January—leaving the Central American nation without a bishop.

Bishop Glancy, a Viatorian priest and native of Illinois, was appointed auxiliary bishop of Belize City-Belmopan in 2012.

The Pillar reports that Bishop Glancy left Belize for the United States in 2017 or 2018 and that he “is currently listed as a case manager at a Viatorian-linked home in Illinois for young men seeking asylum in the US.”
