You're invited! Archbishop Shelton Fabre, apostolic administrator for the Diocese of Knoxville, is scheduled to visit each of the four deaneries and celebrate Mass.

Archbishop Shelton J. Fabre, apostolic administrator of the Diocese of Knoxville, has announced a series of appointments to various consultative bodies which will assist him in the governance of the diocese until a new bishop is installed.

After a tragic arson fire displaced many offices of the agency in November 2021, Catholic Charities of East Tennessee has been moving back to its renovated and renewed Dameron Avenue headquarters in North Knoxville as spring changed to summer this year.

While the diocese awaits a new bishop to be named, the Holy See has appointed Archbishop Shelton J. Fabre of Louisville, Ky., to be the apostolic administrator of the diocese. Archbishop Fabre celebrated a Mass invoking the Holy Spirit for the Diocese of Knoxville on June 28 at the Cathedral of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus in Knoxville.
