This past Saturday, January 27, two new bishops were consecrated for the Anglican Catholic Church of Canada, to serve as suffragan (assistant) bishops for parishes in Central and Atlantic Canada. The bishops-elect were Fr. Carl Reid of Ottawa (rector of my home parish), and Fr. Craig Botterill, of our Halifax parish. I had the distinct pleasure of singing the Litany, with the two candidates prostrate right in front of me (not that they were prostrate toward me, of course!) From left to right, the bishops standing in front of Fr. Carl and Fr. Craig are Bishop Peter Wilkinson, OSG (our Diocesan bishop), Archbishop John Hepworth (Primate of the Traditional Anglican Communion), and Bishop Robert Mercer, CR (former Diocesan in Canada, now retired to England). Kneeling in the sanctuary are Bishops George Langberg and David Moyer of the United States. MC Fr. Keith Kirkwood of BC is holding the missal for the Archbishop. (Photo: Deborah Gyapong).
