Slate of 4 bishops announced for 28th presiding bishop of The Episcopal Church

Nominees are bishops Barker, Gutiérrez, Rowe and Wright

April 02, 2024

Episcopal News Service
Four bishops

The Episcopal Church’s next presiding bishop will be chosen this June from a slate of four nominees, whose names were released April 2: Nebraska Bishop J. Scott Barker, Pennsylvania Bishop Daniel G.P. Gutiérrez, Northwestern Pennsylvania Bishop Sean Rowe and Atlanta Bishop Robert Wright.

Those four bishops – and any additional candidates nominated by petition – will be presented for election at the 81st General Convention, which convenes June 23-28 in Louisville, Kentucky. The nominees’ names will be formally submitted June 25 during a joint session of the House of Bishops and House of Deputies. On June 26, the bishops will elect, and deputies will be asked to confirm, the church’s 28th presiding bishop, who will succeed Presiding Bishop Michael Curry beginning Nov. 1.

“We appreciate the many Episcopalians who prayerfully set us on our way to discerning this slate of nominees,” Alaska Bishop Mark Lattime said in a news release announcing the slate. Lattime and Steve Nishibayashi, a lay leader in the Diocese of Los Angeles, are co-chairs of the Joint Nominating Committee for the Election of the Presiding Bishop. The committee began its work in the fall of 2021.

Let us work for peace in a disrupted world - The Secretary General's Easter Message

March 30, 2024

Anglican Communion News Service

Bishop Anthony Poggo, the Secretary General of the Anglican Communion has shared an Easter message.

“They have taken my Lord away, and I don’t know where they have put him.”

When we read John's gospel account of the woman discovering the empty tomb in the resurrection garden, we sense her surprise and shock.

Things are not as she expected them to be.

The stone has been rolled away and the tomb is empty.

She runs and calls two of Jesus’ disciples. They too start running. At the tomb, all they find are the strips of linen that were wrapped around the crucified Jesus.

It is a scene of disorder and disruption.
