Robert Joseph McManus Biography

Robert Joseph McManus is one of the most popular and richest Catholic Priest who was born on July 5, 1951 in Providence, Rhode Island, United States. Robert Joseph McManus, born July 5, 1951, is an American prelate in the Roman Catholic Church. He serves as the fifth Bishop for the Diocese Worcester, Massachusetts.

Bishop McManus criticised the College of the Holy Cross, Worcester, for renting “sacred space” to the Massachusetts Alliance on Teen Pregnancy. McManus stated that classes were teaching things which were contrary to the Catholic Church’s teachings. He issued a statement on October 10, 2007 in which he criticised the conference.

In June 2012, on instructions from McManus, diocesan officials declined to sell a property owned by the diocese, an historic mansion in Northbridge, to a married gay couple. The property had been used as a Church-affiliated nonprofit retreat center. In September the couple filed suit against the bishop and other parties to the negotiations, citing an email in which church officials pulled out of the sale “because of the potentiality of gay marriages there.” A lawyer for the diocese said that the Massachusetts anti- discrimination statute provides an exemption for religious institutions. He said: “If a religious entity did not have to permit property to be used for gay weddings, which we all agree, why must religious property be sold to an organization if it is going to be used for a gay wedding?” Massachusetts Attorney General Martha Coakley filed a brief supporting the plaintiffs that said “we believe that this family was unfairly discriminated against by the diocese when it refused to sell them property based on their sexual orientation…. And no reasonable person would think that a wedding that took place on a property no longer owned by a church was endorsed by that church.” Oral arguments in the case are scheduled in Worcester Superior Court on April 22, 2014.

After the retirement of Bishop Daniel P. Reilly, Bishop McManus was installed in Worcester on May 14. On May 14, 2004, he was installed in Worcester.
