From Erie-
The dean of Erie's Episcopal cathedral is in the running to become the next bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Kentucky
The Rev. John Downey, of the Cathedral of St. Paul in the Episcopal Diocese of Northwestern Pennsylvania, is one of four nominees for the top job in the Louisville, Ky.-based diocese.
"He is a wonderful preacher, a wonderful liturgist," said Alex Campbell, chairman of the search nominating committee.
Campbell said Downey was one of 78 applicants from 27 states and the District of Columbia considered to replace the retiring Bishop Ted Gulick. The list was narrowed to 10, all of whom visited Kentucky and whose home dioceses were visited by committee members. Four nominees were announced Saturday.
