The Rev. Prince Singh Consecrated Bishop of Rochester

[Episcopal News Service] An array of color, movement and sound encompassed the more than 1,200 people who gathered to celebrate Prince G. Singh's ordination and consecration as the 8th bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Rochester.

"We are here to bless a bridge builder," Presiding Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori said in her sermon. Reflecting on a recent visit to the famed Brooklyn Bridge, which is held together by tension, she noted that all parts of the bridge are necessary to make it work.

The Rev. Steve Lane Consecrated Bishop Co-adjutor of the Diocese of Maine, May 3, 2008

The Rev. Steve Lane, well known throughout Province II for his numerous contributions to the province, was consecrated Bishop Co-Adjutor in Portland, Maine on May 3rd. The Right Rev. Jack McKelvey, retiring Bishop of Rochester, and former President of Province II, offered a splendid sermon to jump-start Steve's new ministry. Steve was present at Prince Singh's consecration and was introduced as the "Maine bishop".
