MIGUEL JERÓNIMO DE MOLINA

Bishop Molina was born in Fortanete, Aragón, on 7 October 1638. On 5 March 1662, he was ordained priest of the Knights Hospitallers. Pope Innocent XI appointed him as Bishop of Malta on 18 April 1678 and he was consecrated seven days later on 24 April by Cardinal Carlo Pio di Savoia.

As Bishop of Malta, he gave a detailed review of the status of the diocese during a visit to Pope Innocent XI. Bishop Molina also called for a synod to reform the diocese. He created two new parishes in Gozo, Xewkija and Għarb. On 25 May 1682, Molina was appointed Bishop of Lleida in the Principality of Catalonia, Spain. He died on 31 August 1698 at the age of 59.
