Auxiliary Bishop Roy Campbell emphasized at a February 21 Mass that “God is DEI,” according to a report in the archdiocesan newspaper.
“DEI means God is diversity, He is equity, and He is inclusion,” Bishop Campbell preached at a Mass at St. Joseph Church in Largo, Maryland.
In September, the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) published “DEI means God,” a reflection by Bishop Campbell that was critical of the Trump administration. The USCCB subsequently removed the reflection from its website.
