Biography

[edit]

Mirdita was ordained a priest on 2 July 1965, aged 25, and served in ethnic Albanian parishes inBronx andWestchester counties of New York.

On 25 December 1992, aged 53, he was appointed the archbishop ofTiranë-Durrës and consecrated on 25 April 1993 byPope John Paul II and cardinalsCamillo Ruini andJozef Tomko, along with three other bishops (Zef Simoni,Frano Illia [sq] andRobert Ashta) during the Pope's pastoral visit to Albania. Mirdita was the President of theEpiscopal Conference of Albania, as well as the President ofCaritas Albania from 1994 to 2000.^[2]

On his initiativeSt. Paul's Cathedral was built in Tirana. Its triangular architecture, according to the Archbishop's idea, symbolizes the cohabitation ofIslam,Eastern Orthodoxy andCatholicism in Albania. The firstHoly Mass in the new cathedral was celebrated by CardinalAngelo Sodano,Vatican's Secretary of State, and Archbishop Mirdita on 27 January 2002. The Archbishop's house was built next to the Eastern Orthodox cathedral and on Christmas 1999, Mirdita and the Eastern Orthodox ArchbishopAnastasios (Anastas) greeted parishioners together.^{[citation needed]} Rrok Mirdita was an Honorary Citizen ofTirana, Albania.

He died atMother Teresa Hospital in Tirana on 7 December 2015.^[1]
