The other US episcopal appointment announced by the Vatican today was that of Bishop-elect Glen John Provost to head the Lake Charles, Louisiana, diocese. That see had been vacant since March 2005 when Bishop Edward Braxton was sent to Belleville, Illinois.
Provost is originally of the clergy of the diocese of Lafayette, LA, and was ordained in 1975. He is 57 years old.
