Our Bishops
England and Spain
Bishop Mario
Degree in History and Heritage at the University of Burgos, and Theology at the Pontifical Faculty of Theology in San Esteban de Salamanca.
Ordained a priest in a Franciscan community.
Received the Mandate as Bishop of England and Spain and consecrated at St. Ethelburga Centre for Reconciliation and Peace in London on 6 April 2024 by Archbishop Ronald Saunders.
I supervise priests and deacons in my area, and teach, govern and sanctify the faithful and other pastoral tasks. I provide a spiritual place for those who have been abandoned, where they can thrive and be nourished by the sacramental grace that Christ offers to all humanity, regardless of colour, language, sexual/gender identity, and social status.
I pray the Divine Office every day in my chapel of Saint Francis of Assisi, and use social media to share prayers.
I founded a new Franciscan community named Franciscan Community of the Spirit of Assisi. Please see my social links below.
Sundays broadcast live Holy Mass for those who cannot attend in person or contact for spiritual advise.

Moscow
Archbishop Adrian-Tadeusz-Maria Ilyaguev
The motto of my ministry is the words of Psalm 64: Praise waiteth for thee, O God, in Sion: and until thee shall the vow be performed. I am a bishop and I perform my ministry in Russia. Rarely when I come "ready-made", I usually do what I do to help in the creation of autocephalous churches, this is my spirit, I am by nature a "builder together with God". I am engaged in tutoring in the Polish language, teaching hermeneutics of the New Testament and canon law. . My doors are open to everyone, because I clearly follow the words of Christ - "He who comes to Me I will not drive out."
