Biography

Thomas Luke Msusa, SMM (born 2 February 1962) is the current bishop of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Blantyre in Malawi. He is a convert to Roman Catholicism from Islam.

Biography

Thomas Msusa is a son of an Muslim iman and at the age of seven left his village to study. He was baptized at the age of twelve and after this entered in the seminary, facing opposition of his family due to his conversion. Upon his return, he was rejected by his family except his uncle, himself a convert to Roman Catholicism.

On 3 August 1996 Msusa was ordained to the SMM's priesthood. His appointment as Roman Catholic bishop was on 19 December 2003 by Pope John Paul II and on 17 April 2004 was ordained bishop to the Roman Catholic Diocese of Zomba by Orlando Antonini, and his co-consecrators were Tarcisius Gervazio Ziyaye, Archbishop of Blantyre, and Allan Chamgwera, bishop emeritus of Zomba.

After his ordination to the episcopate, his father asked him to enter himself also within the Catholic Church and Monsignor Msusa then baptized him in 2006 after he attended a catechetical instruction.

On 21 November 2013 he was appointed to the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Blantrye and on 8 February 2014 was installed on the archbishopric.

In 2015, he was appointed vice president of the association of eight members of the Episcopal Conferences of Eastern Africa and participated in the Fourteenth Ordinary General Assembly of the Synod of Bishops.
