A Letter To ECCT From Bishop Laura J. Ahrens On The Announcement That She Is A Candidate For Election As The 11th Bishop Of The Episcopal Diocese Of Delaware


May 6, 2017 - Today the Diocese of Delaware announced their slate of candidates for their 11th Diocesan Bishop. I am humbled and honored that my name appears on that list. The election will be July 15, 2017. Click here to read more about the Election.

Christ Church Cathedral was reaffirmed as the Cathedral of the Episcopal Church in Connecticut... +Continue Reading

Participating in God's Mission!

We in the Episcopal Church in Connecticut are increasingly embracing, as the vocation of this Cathedral is that it be a resource for our apostolic call to go in God’s mission, following Jesus, into the neighborhood, traveling lightly.

I am very aware of some of the differences that may be among us with regard to the best ways to follow the call of Jesus through our public advocacy. And we must always be respectful of and loving toward one another on this.
