First Woman Bishop in BC Oct 18,2009

The Anglican Church in BC becomes a leader with the Consecration and Installation of Barbara Andrews as Bishop of the Anglican Parishes of the Central Interior. She is the 6th woman Bishop in Canada but a first for British Columbia. On Sunday Oct 18th at 4pm, St.Paul's Cathedral in Kamloops was filled with family,friends,clergy,bishops and Archbishops to celebrate this historical event. I covered the events leading up and throughout for Bishop Barbara.What an honour this has been for me..an advocate of women as priests since I was 16!! Bishop Barbara will be in our city in November!
