creating Monsignor
“Monsignor” is a title bestowed on a priest who has distinguished himself by exceptional service to the church. It is a title granted by the [[Roman_Catholic_Church | Roman Catholic]] pope — typically, upon the recommendation of the priest’s diocesan bishop. It is a purely honorary title and has no effect on the priest’s duties or ministerial assignment. In 2014, Pope Francis had instructed the bishops of the world that diocesan priests would no longer be awarded the title before reaching the age of 65. <ref>https://catholicphilly.com/2017/04/catholic-spirituality/whats-the-difference-between-a-priest-and-a-monsignor/</ref>
