For more than 15 years, Monsignor Thomas Fucinaro has served as chaplain on the University of Dallas’ Eugene Constantin Campus (affectionately known as Due Santi) just outside of Rome, Italy. However, in May, Pope Francis reassigned him to his home diocese of Lincoln, Nebraska, beginning on Feb. 2, 2022, as pastor of the Cathedral of the Risen Christ.
“There is an eloquence and a providential symmetry to my departure at this moment in time, for just as I began my service to the Holy See and initial assistance to UD in my 33rd year, I now leave Rome and UD in my 33rd year of priesthood,” said Fucinaro. “Ad majorem Dei gloriam!”
