Public urged to give their views on appointment of new bishop

Meetings with Archbishop of Canterbury’s appointments secretary on Monday

Two public meetings will be held tomorrow (24 July) as part of efforts to find a new bishop.

The Diocese of Sodor and Man wants the public’s help in securing the right person to succeed Bishop Peter Eagles when he retires this autumn.

The Archbishop of Canterbury’s appointments secretary is visiting the Island to hear from residents at the meetings in Kirk Michael and Ballasalla.

The meeting at Kirk Michael Church will take place at 3.15pm. 

The meeting at the Abbey Church Hall in Ballasalla will start at 6pm.
