Robert Joseph Fisher

Robert Joseph Fisher (born September 24, 1959) is an American prelate of the Roman Catholic Church who has been serving as an auxiliary bishop for the Archdiocese of Detroit in Michigan since 2016.

By 1986, he had decided to enter the priesthood and began his studies at Sacred Heart Major Seminary in Detroit, eventually earning a Master of Divinity degree.

[2] After his ordination, the archdiocese assigned Fisher as associate pastor at Our Lady Star of the Sea Parish in Grosse Pointe Woods, Michigan.

In 2014, Archbishop Allen Vigneron named Fisher as rector of the National Shrine of the Little Flower Basilica in Royal Oak, Michigan, a position he still holds.

Fisher chose as his episcopal motto Per Caritatem Servite Invicem, meaning "Out of love, place yourselves at one another’s service", from Galatians 5:13 in the New Testament.
