Timeline

1946

Christophe Louis Yves Georges Pierre (born 30 January 1946) is a French prelate of the Catholic Church.

Christophe Pierre was born in Rennes, France, on 30 January 1946 to a family with roots for many generations in Brittany.

He first attended school at Antsirabe in Madagascar and pursued his secondary studies at the College of Saint-Malo.

He also spent one year in Morocco at Lycée Français of Marrakesh.

1963

He entered the Catholic seminary of Saint-Yves in Rennes in 1963, but interrupted his studies for two years of military service in France in 1965 and 1966.

1970

Pierre was ordained a priest of the Archdiocese of Rennes at the Cathedral of Saint-Malo in Saint-Malo, France, on 5 April 1970.

He served as vicar of the parish of Saint-Pierre-Saint-Paul de Colombes in the Diocese of Nanterre from 1970 to 1973.

1973

Pierre obtained his Master of Theology degree at the Institut Catholique de Paris and his Doctor of Canon Law degree from the Pontifical Lateran University in Rome (1973-1977).

Pierre then earned a diploma at the Pontifical Ecclesiastical Academy in Rome, the Vatican school for diplomacy.

1977

He entered the Vatican diplomatic service in 1977, serving first in Wellington, New Zealand.

Pierre then held posts in Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Cuba, Brazil, and as the Permanent Observer of the Holy See to the United Nations in Geneva.

1995

On 12 July 1995, Pope John Paul II named Pierre as apostolic nuncio to Haiti and titular archbishop of Gunela.

He was consecrated archbishop by Cardinal Secretary of State Angelo Sodano on 24 September in the Cathedral of Saint-Malo.

In Haiti, which had experienced years of church-state conflict, Pierre was described as non-political.

He arranged for Haitian President Jean-Bertrand Aristide to be released from his vows as a Catholic priest.

1999

On 10 May 1999, Pierre was transferred as apostolic nuncio to Kampala, Uganda.

2000

In 2000, he campaigned against the Ugandan government's promotion of condom use to prevent the spread of HIV/AIDS.

Vice President Speciosa Kazibwe, herself a doctor, promoted condom use during a national tour and complained that religious leaders were hampering the government's public health efforts.

Pierre replied that condoms promoted "outright promiscuity" that would increase the incidence of HIV/AIDS.

Years later, Pierre linked Uganda's success in fighting HIV/AIDS to the church's abstinence education strategy.

During his time in Uganda, Pierre worked with Italian missionary Father John Scalabrini in supporting many disadvantaged Ugandans with school and health care.

2007

On 22 March 2007, Pope Benedict XVI named Pierre as apostolic nuncio to Mexico.

2016

He is a cardinal who has been serving as the apostolic nuncio (ambassador) to the United States since 2016.

Pierre previously served as apostolic nuncio to Mexico, Uganda and Haiti.

Pope Francis made him a cardinal on 30 September 2023.

After Pope Francis sharply criticized the Mexican bishops during his visit to Mexico in February 2016, an editorial in the newspaper of the Archdiocese of Mexico City objected to the Pope's criticism and asked: "Does the Pope have some reason for scolding Mexican bishops? ... [Do] the improvised words of the Holy Father respond to bad advice from someone close to him? Who gave the Pope bad advice?"

Pierre was generally recognized as the target of the editorial and the source of the "bad advice".

Jorge E. Traslosheros wrote in Crux that, while in Mexico, Pierre managed "to weave with an artist's skills unity among Catholics, thereby overcoming the political divisions and culture wars that have caused so much damage".

Traslosheros credited Pierre with bridging Mexico's secular establishment and the Catholic populace.

Pope Francis named Pierre apostolic nuncio to the United States on 12 April 2016, succeeding Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò.

Advocating for immigrants, he joined demonstrations and meetings with Texas-Mexico border bishops in October 2016 in Nogales, Arizona, and in February 2016 in San Juan, Puerto Rico.

2017

Pierre celebrated Mass at the National Scout Jamboree in July 2017 and discussed his five years in Scouting in a sermon that tied Scouting's ideals to Christian service.

The National Catholic Reporter described him as "a staunch defender of Francis in the U.S.".

On 9 July 2023, Pope Francis announced he plans to make him a cardinal at a consistory scheduled for 30 September.

At that consistory he was made Cardinal-Deacon of San Benedetto fuori Porta San Paolo.
