While only delegates to the annual convention can nominate officially, any church member with a suggestion is welcome to approach the clergy and lay leaders of their church, diocese leaders say.
“The most important thing is to call on folks around the diocese and around the country to pray that we listen to God’s will and not our own,” Canon Mark Stevenson said. “This is supposed to be a prayerful process.”
Stevenson serves on the 11-person Episcopate Committee charged with guiding the nomination process.
