Friends – it was announced this morning that Bishop Hector Burgos, the first Latino/Hispanic bishop elected in the Northeastern Jurisdiction, has been assigned to serve as bishop of UNY effective January 1st. Bishop Burgos and I served together in various ways when he was Greater New Jersey’s DCM (2015-2019). He’s a gifted leader and a genuinely kind and warmhearted person. We’ve been blessed in this decision.
We’ll have more to share in the days ahead. Shannon Hudson was on site for the conference and has been doing an incredible job sharing work that unfolded there. Pray she gets some rest when she files her last story!
Thanks!
+Bill
