Catholicism Thrives in Las Vegas
Some call it 'Sin City', but the Catholic faith is alive and well in the Las Vegas Diocese. Mark Irons reports.
Las Vegas' new Catholic Bishop: Plans to listen, learn
Bishop George Leo Thomas has barely caught his breath.
“If you asked me what my number one priority is, it’s, number one, finding my light switches, and number two, dealing with all those boxes,” he told me in his office at the Chancery of the Las Vegas Diocese. “My house is ten times worse than what you see here.”
The bookshelves were empty and the walls were bare, and yes, there were boxes piled next to the desk where he will sit. It’s been a busy 24 hours.
Tuesday, 2,000 local Catholics stuffed the Shrine of the Most Holy Redeemer to watch Thomas be installed as the 3rd Bishop in the young Las Vegas Diocese’s 23-year history. Thomas replaces the retiring Joseph Pepe, who led the local Catholic church for 17 years.
