History

The diocese was erected on 2 January 2017 by Pope Francis, on Honduran territory split off from that of its Metropolitan mother see, the Archdiocese of Tegucigalpa. It was immediately subject to the Roman Congregation for Bishops, without a (semi-)missionary stage.[1]

Episcopal ordinaries

Its first and present Suffragan Bishop is José Antonio Canales Motiño, bishop-elect since 2 January 2017, a secular cleric, born on 19 March 1962 in Honduras, ordained Priest on 12 October 1996.[2]
