Diocesan Convention 2001

Episcopal authority shifts with passing of crosier

In a simple, relatively short transaction, the gilded crosier signifying episcopal authority passed from Bishop Frederick H. Borsch to Bishop J. Jon Bruno, as witnessed by more than 1,000 people attending the final day of the 106th Annual Meeting of the Convention of the Church in the Diocese of Los Angeles.

Correction of election results:

In the current issue of The Episcopal News, the incorrect sequence was reported for the election results for clergy and lay alternate deputies for General Convention in 2003. The elections were held in conjunction with the recent Annual Meeting of Diocesan Convention, Nov. 30-Dec. 1 in Riverside.

The correct order for clergy is: William McCord Thigpen, first alternate; Ed Bacon, second; Joanna Satorius, third; and Lisa Golden.

The order of lay alternates is: Jan Jones, first alternate; Lewis Bonney, second; Lynn Moyer, third; and Mary Mizer.

The News regrets the error.
