Episcopal Transition

Dear Sisters and Brothers:

The Profile and Search Committee for the election of the Tenth Bishop of Albany is now releasing our Diocesan Profile (PDF)   and call for recommendations for nominees (FORM). Please enjoy reading and learning about our diocese and if you are so led, send a recommendation for someone you believe would be qualified to serve as our next bishop.

Thank you for your support and prayers over the past year and going forward to the election of the one God is calling.

In the service of our Lord and Savior,
Sue Ellen Ruetsch, Chair, Profile and Search Committee

 

Search Process Resources

During this time of episcopal transition the Standing Committee assumes ecclesiastical authority of the diocese. Periodic updates will be posted here. We encourage you and your parish to keep the diocese in your prayers during this time of transition.
