Pope Leo XIV has appointed Rev. Fr. Susai Jesu, OMI, a member of the Missionary Oblates of Mary Immaculate, as the new Metropolitan Archbishop of Keewatin-Le Pas, Canada. The appointment was announced on November 17, 2025.
November 10th marks the 38th anniversary of the assassination of Father Michael Rodrigo, a Sri Lankan Catholic priest and member of the Oblates of Mary Immaculate (OMI), widely remembered for his radical commitment to social justice, ecological awareness, and inter-religious dialogue in rural Sri Lanka.
"50 years of missionary and evangelizing presence and services is our gratitude, confession, and pilgrims of hope in communion," says Father Ajit Victor Costa, OMI Delegation Superior in Bangladesh.
