Jesuit Archbishop Has New Duties Protecting The Faith

Archbishop Ladaria Ferrer was named secretary of the Congregation of the Doctrine of the Faith earlier this month, succeeding Archbishop Angelo Amato, who was named to lead the Congregation for Saints' Causes.
Luis Ladaria Ferrer was born in Mallorca, Spain in 1944 and joined the Society of Jesus in 1966. He was ordained a priest in 1973.
Two years later, he became a professor of dogmatic theology in Spain, and in 1984, took that same role at the Gregorian University, where he also served as vice rector. Father Ladaria Ferrer was named a consultant for the Congregation of the Doctrine of the Faith in 1995, and since 2004 has been the secretary of the International Theological Commission.
