Anglican Coalition in Canada

The Council of Bishops recently announced that Bishop Sandy Greene will assume oversight of congregations in the Anglican Coalition in Canada (ACiC) effective immediately. Bishop Thomas Johnston has provided episcopal oversight for ACiC since January 2006 but has been asked by Bishop Chuck Murphy, Chairman of the Anglican Mission as well as its Council of Bishops, to oversee, encourage and resource the leadership of our Mission Networks. This transition in leadership allows Bishop Johnston to more effectively fulfill his ongoing pastoral responsibilities at St. Peter’s, Mt. Pleasant, as well as his new ministry with Mission Networks. Bishop Greene will work closely with each ACiC congregation as well as the Rev. Barclay Mayo, ACiC Network Leader.
“It has been a joy to provide oversight for ACiC, and I have built strong relationships with our clergy and lay leadership in that network,” said Bishop Johnston. “I am thankful that I will continue to work closely with Barclay through the Mission Networks, and I will look forward to seeing how the ACiC expands and grows in this new season.”
ACIC leaders have expressed great enthusiasm for working with Bishop Greene.
“Just as we have been richly blessed by Bishop Johnston’s oversight, I know we will enjoy a powerful partnership with Bishop Greene,” said Mayo. “We are confident that the Lord will lead us into exciting new works as we seek to expand the Kingdom of God.
