Bishop of Beverley

Source: Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

The Bishop of Beverley is a Church of England suffragan bishop. The title takes its name after the town of Beverley in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England.[1]

The suffragan bishop was originally to assist the

Provincial Episcopal Visitor for the Province of York. The bishop has responsibility for those parishes in 9 dioceses of the province who do not accept the sacramental ministry of bishops who have participated in the ordination of women. As of 2014, three of the twelve dioceses in the northern province provide a different suffragan bishop to such parishes in their diocese: in the Diocese of Leeds this is the Bishop of Wakefield, and in Blackburn and Carlisle the Bishop of Burnley.[3]

The bishop's office is in Micklegate, York.[4]

The See was vacant since Bishop

Stephen Peter Race would be the next Bishop of Beverley: his consecration took place on 30 November 2022 at York Minster.[6][7]
