Search for new Anglican Bishop enters another stage

From Barbados-

The quest for a new cleric to lead the island’s largest congregation officially entered its next stage this evening when the House of Bishops of the Anglican Church of the Province of the West Indies met with members of the laity, another of its three decision-making chambers.

The meeting, held at the Ivan Harewood Centre at the Christ Church Parish Church, paves the way for a meeting with the House of Clergy this week, with a decision by the bishops expected by weekend on the next steps to end the protracted battle between two priests to lead the Diocese of Barbados.

“At this meeting, we listened to the views of the House of Laity, and on Thursday we will get together with the House of Clergy at Codrington College,” said Senior Bishop Errol Brooks, just after the meeting he chaired had concluded.
