CWN Editor's Note: Ten years after the refounding of the Apostleship of Prayer as the Pope’s Worldwide Prayer Network, and four months after the publication of new statutes, the network has announced new leadership.
Reflecting the network’s long association with the Society of Jesus, the network’s new president is Father Cristóbal Fones, a 49-year-old Chilean Jesuit, following a decade of leadership by Father Frédéric Fornos, SJ.
The two new deputy presidents are Father Miguel Pedro Melo, SJ, 38, from Portugal, and Bettina Raed, a 55-year-old Argentine laywoman. Raed has also been named the coordinator of international formation for the network.
