It was announced this morning on the Downing Street website that the Queen has agreed to the appointment of Fr Jonathan Baker SSC, Principal of Pusey House, as the next Bishop of Ebbsfleet, and Fr Norman Banks SSC, Vicar of Walsingham, as the next Bishop of Richborough. Deo gratias. The Archbishop of Canterbury will be holding a press conference at Lambeth Palace with the Bishops-elect at 11:00am this morning.
Both will be consecrated at Southwark Cathedral on Thursday 16th June. I think the time is usually 11:00am. At some time later that day the Bishop will preside at Benediction and a reception will be held – further details will be announced as soon as possible.
