Bishops Appointed By Pope Boniface IX
A bishop is an ordained clergy member who is entrusted with a position of authority and oversight in a religious institution. In Christianity, bishops are normally responsible for the governance of dioceses. The role or office of bishop is called episcopacy. Organizationally, several Christian denominations utilize ecclesiastical structures that call for the position of bishops, while other denominations have dispensed with this office, seeing it as a symbol of power. Bishops have also exercised political authority. Traditionally, bishops claim apostolic succession, a direct historical lineage dating back to the original Twelve Apostles or Saint Paul. The bishops are by doctrine understood as those who possess the full priesthood given by Jesus Christ, and therefore may ordain other clergy, including other bishops. A person ordained as a deacon, priest (i.e. presbyter), and then bishop is understood to hold the fullness of the ministerial priesthood, given responsibility b ...

Early life and family The eldest son of the famous admiral and procurator Pietro Loredan and of Campagnola Lando di Vitale, he was born in Venice in the first half of 1396 and, like his father, married in time, contrary to the practice then in use among fellow citizens: in 1419 he married Beatrice Marcello di Francesco, with whom he had several children, including Antonio Loredan. Career In his youth he devoted himself to trading (on 2 March 1430 he was appointed patron of the galleys of Flanders and in 1443 his son Luca was in Damascus) but without too much success. Soon, therefore, he joined, or perhaps even replaced, private activity with public, and on 2 February 1432 he was given command of a galley in the army led by his father against the Genoese in the Tyrrh ...

Urban V
Pope Urban V ( la, Urbanus V; 1310 – 19 December 1370), born Guillaume de Grimoard, was the head of the Catholic Church from 28 September 1362 until his death in December 1370 and was also a member of the Order of Saint Benedict. He was the only Avignon pope to be beatified. Even after his election as pontiff, he continued to follow the Benedictine Rule, living simply and modestly. His habits did not always gain him supporters who were used to lives of affluence. Urban V pressed for reform throughout his pontificate and also oversaw the restoration and construction of churches and monasteries. One of the goals he set himself upon his election to the Papacy was the reunion of the Eastern and Western Churches. He came as close as some of his predecessors and successors, but did not succeed. Early life Guillaume de Grimoard was born in 1310 in the Castle of Grizac in the French region of Languedoc (today part of the commune of Le Pont-de-Montvert, department of Lozère), the ...
