Early life and education
Ramos was born on May 4, 1940,[1] and is a native of Yauco, Puerto Rico. He is one of three siblings to join the priesthood and one of two to become bishops.[citation needed]
Ordained ministry
He was consecrated on October 14, 2000[2] as the 960th bishop in order of consecration of the Episcopal Church of the United States and served as suffragan bishop in the Diocese of Connecticut. He was installed as Provisional Bishop in Ecuador[3] on September 13, 2006.[4]
On January 25, 2014, Ramos was appointed the provisional bishop of the Diocese of Puerto Rico.[5] He will continue as such until the successor of Bishop David Álvarez, who retired on October 31, 2013, as Diocesan Bishop, is selected and installed. The Episcopal Church's Presiding Bishop Katharine Jefferts-Schori presided[citation needed] at a special ceremony on March 28, 2014, in San Juan commemorating Bishop Ramos' new designation,[6] with the attendance of eight other bishops. One of them, his brother José Antonio Ramos-Orench, delivered the homily.[citation needed] On January 25, 2014, his appointment as provisional bishop of Puerto Rico was ratified by a large majority of the Diocesan Assembly.
