BEND, Ore. (KTVZ) -- The Roman Catholic Diocese of Baker is about to announce a new bishop who will succeed the current bishop, the Most Reverend Liam Cary.

KTVZ News has been invited to a Thursday morning news conference, set to take place at the diocese office in Redmond.

Reporters will be able to speak with the new bishop-elect and with Bishop Cary, who was ordained and took the position in May 2012, overseeing a diocese with roots dating back to 1903.

KTVZ News spoke with Cary in May after Pope Leo XIV was chosen. He expressed surprise at how quickly the new pope was chosen by the conclave of bishops.

We will have a full report on the newly chosen bishop on Thursday on KTVZ.COM and KTVZ News.
