St. Peter’s Episcopal to greet new bishop
Sunday September 9, 2007 at 10:00am
Peter’s Episcopal Church
510 Jefferson Street
Red Bluff, California 96080 Get Directions
The Episcopal Church congregations of the north valley will be greeting their new bishop, the Rt. Rev. Barry Beisner, and the Rev. Olga Barrera, deacon of the Diocese of Honduras.
They will gather for the Holy Eucharist in which Bishop Beisner will preside and preach. After the service, they will share a meal together.
Bishop Beisner was consecrated in October 2006. He has been a priest of the Diocese of Northern California for more than 20 years, and for the last five years he has been the Canon to the Ordinary or assistant to the bishop. The past bishop, Jerry Lamb, retired at the beginning of this year, and Beisner became the diocesan bishop.

The Rev. Olga Barrera is a transitional deacon from the Diocese of Honduras and, after two years, she will be ordained to the priesthood. Only three other women have been ordained to the priesthood in her diocese. She is bilingual, able to greet people in English and Spanish. She will work with the church for six months while they discern what God wants for their ministry with Latinos.
