Bishop Suffragan Search
The Nominating Committee for Bishop Suffragan has prepared several educational materials to support this process. These materials serve to spiritually prepare our diocese for the election, to provide an opportunity for parishes to learn about the important role bishops play in the life of the Church and to educate those voting in the election on the role of the bishop.
What is the Process for Electing our Bishop Suffragan? What is a Bishop? What is a Bishop Suffragan? Why are Bishops Important? How are Bishops Ordained in the Episcopal Church? What is the Role of Bishops Today? What Kind of Person Should We be Looking for in our Next Bishop Suffragan? Visit the Suffragan Search Site for more materials, including a PowerPoint presentation suitable for an adult forum. |
