The new offices the Medina administration built for the Roman Catholic bishop in San Pedro de Macorís were inaugurated on Thursday, 1 February in San Pedro de Macoris. President Danilo Medina traveled to San Pedro to cut the inaugural ribbon.
The former bishop of San Pedro, Monsignor Francisco Ozoria Acosta, was promoted in 2016 by Pope Francis to Archbishop of Santo Domingo, and is the head of the Dominican Catholic Church.
The new offices are located in a four story building with 26 offices, chapel, library and meeting room.
The bishop offices had previously operated out of the third floor of the San Pedro Apostal Cathedral in San Pedro. The church had requested the construction of the new offices in 2016.
