History
The Territorial Prelature of Ozamiz was erected on 27 January 1951 from the territory of the then-diocese of Cagayan de Oro.[2] This prelature covered the provinces of Lanao (which were split in 1952 into Lanao del Norte and Lanao del Sur) and Misamis Occidental, and the chartered cities of Iligan, Marawi, Oroquieta (established 1969), Ozamiz and Tangub (established 1967).[1]
On 17 February 1971 Pope Paul VI elevated the Prelature of Ozamiz into a diocese, covering only parishes within Misamis Occidental, with Jesus Varela appointed as its bishop.[1] The new diocese became a suffragan of the Archdiocese of Zamboanga.[2]
On 24 January 1983, Ozamiz was elevated to an archdiocese, with the dioceses of Dipolog (established 1967), Iligan (established 1971) and Pagadian (established 1971), and the Prelature of Marawi (established 1976) as its suffragan dioceses.[1]Jesus Dosado was officially installed as its first archbishop on 10 April 1983.[2]
