Biography

Giovanni Gaspari was born on 6 June 1963, in Pescara. He was ordained a priest of the Archdiocese of Pescara–Penne on 4 July 1987 by Archbishop Antonio Iannucci.[1][2] His assignments in that diocese included stints as the archbishop's secretary, head of the vocations center, spiritual director of the minor seminary, and chancellor of the archdiocese.[1]

To prepare for a diplomatic career he entered the Pontifical Ecclesiastical Academy in 1998.[3] He has earned a degree in canon law and a licentiate in moral theology. He joined the diplomatic service of the Holy See on 1 July 2001, and served in diplomatic missions in the pontifical representations to Iran, Albania, Mexico, and Lithuania, as well as in the Vatican Secretariat of State.[2]

On 21 September 2020, Pope Francis named him Apostolic Nuncio to Angola and to São Tomé and Príncipe. He made him titular archbishop of Alba Maritima at the same time.[2]
