The Episcopal Church gets a new Presiding
Bishop
 In rites on November 4–5
at Washington
National Cathedral, the Episcopal Church will welcome the Most Rev.
Katharine Jefferts Schori as its 26th Presiding Bishop. The investiture
will occur in the context of a Eucharistic celebration at 11 am on
Saturday, November 4. The cathedral's 11 am All Saints' Sunday liturgy on
November 5 will include the formal seating of Bishop Jefferts Schori in the
seat symbolic of her office. Presiding Bishop Jefferts Schori will preside
and preach at this service and will be webcast by the cathedral.
Bishop
Jefferts Schori, an airplane pilot and former oceanographer, is
the first woman in Anglicanism's nearly 520-year history to lead a church
province as its chief bishop. She was elected June 18 by her colleagues in
the House of Bishops from among seven nominees. The House of Deputies
confirmed her election the same day.
The
national church has prepared an insert for worshipers this weekend to know
more about the installation of the Presiding Bishop and some of her
plans. To view it, please click
