He described the move as 'mission-driven renewal' and 'strategic adaptation' to pastoral challenges like priest shortages, quoting Jeremiah's hopeful words and earning warm support from fellow bishops. This union joins recent restructurings in Ireland's west, fostering shared governance for about 92,000 Catholics.
