The Appointment of a new Bishop

On behalf of the Diocesan members of the Crown Nominations Commission for the Vacancy in the See of Carlisle

We have now completed our work, and have been very grateful for the prayers of the diocese. A public announcement about the appointment of a new Bishop may reasonably be expected in two to three months time. In the meantime please respect the fact that we are bound by a strict code of confidentiality.

George Howe

 

Please continue to pray for the whole process of discernment that, through it, God will call a true shepherd and minister of Christ to serve with us in this diocese.

Dear God and Father,
call to serve among us as our Bishop
a true shepherd,
a man of God,
a minister of Christ.
Equip us to be, with him,
a church that is joyful in worship
united in witness,
caring and loving
to the glory of your name;
we ask this through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen
