History

The diocese was canonically erected on December 16, 1939, taking its territory from the Archdiocese of Santa Fe, of which Gallup is a suffragan.[2][3]

Bishops of the Diocese of Gallup

The diocese was sede vacante between 2008-2009. Its former bishop, Donald Edmond Pelotte, was granted a one year leave of absence on January 3, 2008, to recover from a fall he suffered on July 23, 2007. Thomas J. Olmsted, Bishop of Phoenix, was appointed apostolic administrator sede plena by Pope Benedict XVI for the duration of Bishop Pelotte's absence. On April 30, 2008 the Pope Benedict XVI accepted the resignation from the pastoral government of the Diocese of Gallup, presented by Bishop Pelotte, in accordance with canon 401 § 2 of the Code of Canon Law.[4]
