William White
Today the Episcopal church celebrates William White. Bishop White was the first Bishop of Pennsylvania and one of the first Bishops in the Episcopal Church. He is responsible for the system of church organization that the Episcopal Church has - he was ademant that the laity have a role in church decisions.
As laity you have been given a great responsibilty. Take it.
On this day I ask your prayers for all Bishops in the church. Pray that they firmly fix their hearts on our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and that they direct their dioceses for the spread of his Gospel to all people through word and deed. Pray for all bishops every where.
