The Right Rev. Robert Bennett was elected on the second ballot to be the 12th bishop of the Anglican Diocese of Huron Saturday.
Bennett was chosen from a slate of six candidates, including the Venerable Richard Salt, Rector of Trinity church in Sarnia and Archdeacon of Lambton/Kent.
He becomes the representatives of Anglican parishes from Windsor to Kitchener to Tobermory at a time when the church faces several critical decisions.
