Vatican, 19 July, 2023 / 8:28 pm (ACI Africa).
Archbishop Jorge García Cuerva of Buenos Aires, Argentina, on July 17 announced that Pope Francis has appointed a priest from the Buenos Aires Archdiocese, Father Daniel Pellizzon, 40, to act as his personal secretary. Pellizzon will replace Father Gonzalo Aemilius in the position.
García said Pellizzon will travel to Rome at the beginning of August to begin his new role.
The archbishop offered his prayer for the priest as he begins “this new mission entrusted to the service of the Church.”
Pellizzon was born Jan. 24, 1983, in Buenos Aires.
In 2011 and 2012 he collaborated with Cardinal Jorge Bergoglio — the archbishop at that time — in organizing his personal archives.
