His Grace Archbishop Jesús Armamento Dosado C.M., D.D. (1 September 1939 – 22 June 2020) was a Vincentian Filipino prelate of the Catholic Church in the Philippines. He served as the Bishop and later Archbishop of Ozamiz from 1981 until his retirement in 2016.[1]
Early life and education
Dosado was born in Sogod, Cebu on 1 September 1939. After studying at Sogod Central School (1945–1951) and Cebu Northern High School (1951–1952), he entered the Seminario Mayor de San Carlos in Cebu City (1952–1956),[2] which was then managed by the Vincentians.[3]
Afterwards, he decided to join the Vincentians and after a year of studying in their St. Vincent's Seminary, Polo, Bulacan,[2] he was admitted to the said congregation on June 15, 1957, alongside future Adamson University President Fr. Rolando de la Goza, CM.[3] After his two-year novitiate in the same seminary, he was sent to the United States, where he took his Philosophical Studies at St. Mary's Seminary, Missouri (1959–1962), and his Theological Studies at DeAndreis Institute of Theology, Illinois (1962–1966). He would later be sent to the University of Comillas in Spain for his Licentiate Degree (1969–1971).[2]
Pastoral ministry
Dosado was ordained priest for the Vincentian Fathers on 28 May 1966.[1] After his ordination, he was assigned to his alma mater, the Seminario Mayor de San Carlos, serving as Professor (1966–1969), Spiritual Director (1971–1972), and eventually its first Filipino Rector (1972–1978).[2] As seminary formator, he was responsible for the education and training of the diocesan seminarians of the Archdiocese of Cebu and the nearby dioceses. During his tenure as Rector, he brought clear and distinct policies for the seminarians, and attempted to do improvements in the administration of the seminary.[3] From 1973 to 1978, he was elected to the Vincentian Provincial Council, and was the Assistant Provincial from 1976 to 1978.[2]
Episcopate
On 31 October 1977, at the age of 38, he was appointed by Pope Paul VI as Auxiliary Bishop of Cebu and titular bishop of Nabala. He was consecrated bishop at Manila Cathedral on January 25, 1978 by Cebu Archbishop Julio Cardinal Rosales, with Davao Archbishop Antonio Mabutas and Legazpi Bishop Teotimo Pacis, CM as co-consecrators. A year later, he was appointed by Pope John Paul II as Auxiliary Bishop of Cagayan de Oro.[1] As auxiliary bishop, he assisted Cardinal Rosales and Cagayan de Oro Archbishop Patrick Cronin in the governance of their respective sees.
On 29 July 1981, Pope John Paul II appointed Dosado as the new Bishop of Ozamiz, replacing Bishop Jesus Varela, who was transferred to the Diocese of Sorsogon. Upon the elevation of the Diocese of Ozamiz as an archdiocese in 1983, Dosado was likewise elevated to the archiepiscopate, making him the first Archbishop of Ozamiz.[1]
