"Bishops are the successors of the Apostles. When one reads Sacred Scripture, one finds our Blessed Lord giving them many powers.

It is only for jurisdictional reason that a Bishop has a diocese, but his primary responsibility is the world itself, therefore the missions of the Church are not foundlings on the doorsteps of a chancelry office. All peoples of the world weigh upon his heart.
Every Bishop, every diocese as in every parish has communion with itself only in as much as it has communion with the Entire Mystical Body of Christ."

(Bishop Fulton J. Sheen)
