The Bishop Search Committee has received and acknowledged the charge presented to it by the Standing Committee of the Diocese of Western New York.

It is the Search Committee's hope, prayer and belief that with the help of God's Grace, our eyes will be opened and God will guide our work so that we will present to the Diocese the best available candidates.

Our work is guided in the spirit of Canon III.1 of the Constitution and Canons of the Episcopal Church.
