The election of a new Bishop is on Saturday, May 18, all day at the Cathedral. Go to the Diocesan website (click link below), and under the heading of News and Updates, one can find the live feeds from the various meet and greets to get to know the candidates better. The selection must be ratified by all the dioceses in the Episcopal Church and the House of Bishops before we can go forward. That is expected to take up to 120 days, so the Consecration of our new Bishop is scheduled for September 14, 2024. Please pray for the candidates and those who will be voting at the Convention on May 18.
