The Most Reverend Richard G. Henning, STD is a native of Long Island, New York, where he was ordained to the priesthood for the Diocese of Rockville Centre in 1992. After pastoral work in English and Spanish at St. Peter of Alcantara Parish, he began graduate studies in biblical theology, earning a Licentiate at the Catholic University of America and a Doctorate at the University of St. Thomas Aquinas in Rome.
Bishop Henning served for ten years as a Professor at the Seminary of the Immaculate Conception. During those years, Bishop Henning partnered with Dr. Sebastian Mahfood to establish and oversee the Parresia Project. This multi-year project provided conferences for clergy personnel and formation leaders and promoted the incorporation of distance learning methodologies into the process of providing orientation to arriving international priests and the communities they serve.
In 2012, Bishop Henning was appointed Director of the Sacred Heart Institute for the Ongoing Formation of the Clergy. While serving as an adjunct Professor at St. Joseph’s Seminary in Yonkers, he was also entrusted with the direction of a major retreat house on Long Island at the Seminary of the Immaculate Conception.
In 2018, Pope Francis appointed Bishop Henning as an auxiliary bishop. In the Diocese of Rockville Centre, Bishop Henning is a regional Vicar as well as Vicar for Pastoral Planning and Parish Evangelization. He is a trustee of St. Joseph’s Seminary in Yonkers, NY. In the USCCB, he serves on the Doctrine Committee, the Subcommittee on Translation of Scripture Text, and the Subcommittee of National Collections for the Church in Latin America. He was named Bishop of Providence, RI, in 2023.
