Rumney Marsh Diocese
Episcopal Consecration (2000)

David’s Consecration

On Christmas Day 1999, Patriarch Andre II Letellier signed the mandate for the consecration of David Francis-Damien Dismas as Titular Bishop of Rumney Marsh and Auxiliary Bishop for the Archdiocese of Fairhaven, L'Eglise Catholique Charismatique du Canada [Catholic Charismatic Church of Canada].
 
In obedience thereto, a large number of parishioners and guests from the three New England dioceses of the Catholic Charismatic Church of Canada gathered in the Marsh Chapel at Boston University on 24 June 2000 to participate in David's ordination as the first Bishop of Rumney Marsh.

Archbishop Roland L. Salvador of Fairhaven served as principal consecrator, with Bishop Joseph Johnson of Philadelphia, Bishop Raymond Contois of Belchertown (MA), and Bishop Dennis Dumais of Ossippee (NH) serving as co-consecrators.

Those interested in such things may wish to note that the lines of Bishops Dumais and Contois are all but identical to those of Archbishop Salvador (Dumais having been consecrated by Barbeau and Contois having been consecrated by Letellier who had been consecrated by Barbeau).
