For each of the five nominees, the diocese provides a video, brief bio, letter to the diocese, answers to three questions, and a résumé. These are the three questions: Describe your Christian journey; why do you follow Jesus? Describe how you led a group in creating a new vision and the success and difficulties you encountered instituting a significant change. What is the role of a bishop in providing leadership, guidance and oversight to clergy, laity and widespread congregations? An electing convention is scheduled for Feb. 9 at Faith Episcopal Church, Cameron Park. Share this:Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window)Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)
