The 5th Bishop of Tyler | Bishop Greg Kelly | Episode #201

Published March 3

The 5th Bishop of the Diocese of Tyler and longtime friend of The BeatiDudes, Bishop Greg Kelly, joined the BeatiDudes just weeks before his installation to share his gratitude, joy, and excitement. His focus included a message of timeless wisdom to always find Christ and keep our eyes on Him.

Bishop Greg Kelly is a native of Iowa and grew up in Colorado Springs, Colorado. In 1976, he arrived in Dallas. He studied for the priesthood in Holy Trinity Seminary at the University of Dallas in Irving and was ordained to the priesthood in 1982. He served as parochial vicar at All Saints in Dallas, Chaplain at the University of Dallas in Irving, and pastor at St. Gabriel the Archangel Parish in McKinney. He was ordained as auxiliary bishop of Dallas on February 11, 2016, and resided at Holy Trinity Seminary in Irving.

In December 2024, Bishop Greg Kelly received word that Pope Francis wanted him to be the Bishop of the Diocese of Tyler, only 100 miles East of Dallas. When he received this news, he responded, “If the Holy Father wants me to do this, then that’s what I’ll do.” Bishop Kelly was installed as the 5th Bishop of the Diocese of Tyler on February 24th, 2025, the 30th anniversary of the diocese's inauguration.

There is no better guest to serve as the start of BeatiDudes Season 5 than the 5th Bishop of Tyler. Join Paul Kolker, Nick Bezner, and Jeff Schiefelbein in celebrating this exciting time for the Church and praying for Bishop Kelly’s new flock.
