Muench told New Roads native Bishop Shelton J. Fabre, who had just been appointed Bishop of the Diocese of Houma-Thibodaux. Bishop Fabre, in turn, smiled as he shared his new experience dealing with the press and the Vatican. “One thing you learn is nothing is ever final until it is in writing,” he said with a laugh. The two bishops, who in spite of their contrasting styles share a common bond, met briefly at the Catholic Life Center on Sept. 27. Earlier in the week, Pope Francis appointed 49-year-old Bish- op Fabre, who had been auxiliary bishop in the Archdiocese of New Orleans for the past six years, as the fourth bishop of the Houma-Thibodaux diocese. On a visit to Baton Rouge, Bishop Fabre said the message of Pope Francis resonates with him “personally and with my min- istry as bishop. “The pope is not changing any church teaching. What he is say- ing is we have to speak the truth, but we have to speak the truth in love.
