Archbishop's Greeting to Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori on her Installation as Presiding Bishop of the Episcopal Church
Saturday 04 November 2006
The Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams, sent the following message of greeting to the new Presiding Bishop of the United States Episcopal Church on 4th November 2006.
'I am happy to send my prayers and best wishes to Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori on the historic occasion of her inauguration as Presiding Bishop.
She will take on this responsibility in the most challenging of times, but she will be supported by the good will and prayers of very many in the USA and around the world as she strives to lead faithfully, honestly and collaboratively.
I pray that she will daily know the love and mercy of God in Jesus Christ as the foundation of all she does, so that this reality will radiate from her ministry and her witness.'
