Apostolic Vicariate of Méndez

The Apostolic Vicariate (or Vicariate Apostolic) of Méndez (Latin: Apostolicus Vicariatus Mendezensis) is a missionary circonscription of the Roman Catholic Church.

It is exempt, i.e. directly subject to the Holy See, not part of any ecclesiastical province.

Pope Pius XII shortened its name to the Vicariate Apostolic of Méndez on 12 April 1951.

[1][2] So far, all its apostolic vicars were members of the missionary Salesians order (S.D.B.)
