Bishop Ogé Beauvoir is leaving his appointment as suffragan bishop of Haiti to work for Food for the Poor, an interdenominational relief and development agency working primarily in Latin America and the Caribbean. In a news release on 3/26/15 posted on the Food for the Poor website,
"The Board of Directors for Food For The Poor-Haiti has named Bishop
Ogé Beauvoir as Executive Director/FFP Haiti Office. He will be
responsible for the charity’s operations within the country and provide
a vital link to the organization in the United States. The appointment
is effective on May 1.
...
He is currently Bishop-in-charge of the Northern Region of the
Episcopal diocese of Haiti, a role he will relinquish when he begins
work with Food For The Poor."
Bishop Beauvoir was ordained bishop in Haiti May 22, 2012.
The Episcopal Church of Haiti, which currently consists of a single diocese, has grown so large that it may soon request to become two dioceses.

OK... Comments, gripes, etc welcomed, but with some cautions and one rule:
Cautions: Calling people fools, idiots, etc, will be reason to bounce your comment. Keeping in mind that in the struggles it is difficult enough to try to respect opponents, we should at least try.
Rule: PLEASE DO NOT SIGN OFF AS ANONYMOUS: BEGIN OR END THE MESSAGE WITH A NAME - ANY NAME. ANONYMOUS commentary will be cut.

AAACK! Well, FFP must be overjoyed, but DioHaiti sure needs him.
ReplyDeleteQuestion for you: Living Church has a comment from you about canonical issues/voting on this in the HoB. I'm not finding this. Could you point me to that since I don't have that information anywhere else? Many thanks.
