Timeline

1801

Because the appointment of Strasbourg's archbishop is governed by the Concordat of 1801, Ravel's removal required the assent of the French president, which Ravel had hoped would not be forthcoming.

1957

Luc Marie Daniel Ravel, C.R.S.V. (born 21 May 1957) is a French prelate of the Catholic Church, who was the Archbishop of Strasbourg from 2017 to 2023, when he resigned at the age of 66.

Ravel was born in Paris on 21 May 1957 to a family with origins in Martinique and Réunion on his father's side, and in the Var department of France on his mother's side.

He was born the fourth child in a family of three girls and four boys.

He graduated from the École Polytechnique and studied to become an engineer at the IFP School.

He studied philosophy and theology at the Abbey Saint-Pierre in the commune of Champagne, in the Ardèche department in southern France, and at the University of Poitiers.

1985

He made his solemn profession as a Canon Regular of St. Victor on 7 December 1985 and was ordained a priest on 25 June 1988.

He was then prior at the Church of Saint-Charles at Porrentruy, in Jura, Switzerland, at Montbron, and at the Tardoire and Bandiat deanery in Charente.

1996

He returned to the Abbey of Saint-Pierre where he was master of novices from 1996 to 2007 and subprior from 2003 to 2009.

He founded Notre-Dame de l'Écoute, a movement for single and celibate people.

2009

He was bishop of the Diocese of the French Armed Forces from 2009 to 2017.

He was appointed bishop of the Diocese of the French Armed Forces by Pope Benedict XVI on 7 October 2009.

He received his episcopal consecration in Notre Dame Cathedral on 29 November 2009 from Cardinal André Vingt-Trois.

2011

He was elected a member of the Doctrinal Commission of the Bishops' Conference of France in 2011.

2015

Ravel called abortion a "weapon of mass destruction" and called for the return of the abortion debate in French society in the Armed Forces monthly magazine in February 2015.

In response, the French Defence Minister asked the Diocese's magazine to stop displaying the Army's logo on the cover so as to distance the Army from its content.

2017

Ravel was appointed Archbishop of Strasbourg on 18 February 2017.

His tenure in Strasbourg proved turbulent, as he was criticized for an authoritarian management style and neglect of his duties.

He was the only French bishop to support French President Emmanuel Macron in the 2022 election and skipped the annual chrism Mass to attend a Macron rally.

He supported the work of the Missionaries of Divine Mercy to evangelize Muslims, a controversial approach in contrast to interfaith dialog.

His dismissal of several senior diocesan officials provoked concern, as did his removal of women and laymen from archdiocesan councils.

In response to complaints the Vatican conducted an apostolic visitation of the Strasbourg archdiocese in the summer of 2022.

Ravel then resisted when his resignation was demanded.

In late March 2023, he removed his vicar general, who was thought a likely candidate to manage the archdiocese if Ravel resigned.

Ravel submitted his resignation on 20 April 2023.

Pope Francis accepted his resignation on 27 May 2023 and named Archbishop-Bishop Philippe Ballot of Metz to administer the archdiocese.

Macron's consent, given on 24 May, was published the same day.
