New Bishop — Extract from the Media Release

Archbishops Winston Halapua and Philip Richardson have announced the election of the Rev Dr Steven Benford as the next Bishop of Dunedin.

Bishop-elect Steven, who is 56, currently serves as vicar of St Joseph the Worker, Northolt, in the Diocese of London, where he is also a Bishops’ Advisor for Ministry, a new incumbents’ ministry mentor and spiritual director.

The archbishops today confirmed Steven Benford’s election, which has been ratified by General Synod, after he was nominated by the Diocese of Dunedin’s Electoral College held from May 26-27.

It is an appointment which signals a return to New Zealand for the qualified doctor who worked in Otago in the early 1990s. His wife Lorraine was born in Dunedin. Rev Dr Steven Benford’s ordination as Bishop of Dunedin will take place in St Paul's Cathedral Church, Dunedin in September 2017.

The full version is on the Noticeboard in the Narthex

From Alec Clark—Let us continue to pray for the Diocese and the person God has called south to be our Bishop. Loving Lord God you call all of us, women and men, lay and ordained to the ministry of being your love in many and various ways. We pray for the Diocese of Dunedin and for Steven Benford whom you have called to be Bishop. May we together work for the extension of your kingdom and the growth of love in our world. Amen.
