The Archdiocese of Boston has reportedly found its successor to Cardinal Sean O'Malley.
Providence Bishop Richard Henning is expected to replace O'Malley as the head of the Catholic Church in greater Boston.
The 80-year-old O'Malley became Boston's archbishop in 2003 and was elevated to cardinal by Pope Benedict three years later.
Henning has only been bishop in Providence for around a year, and previously led the diocese covering most of Long Island, New York.
Cardinal O'Malley has not spoken. Neither has Bishop Hennig. His spokesman says the Bishop was in Block Island last night.
Today he is in Montreal.
