Bishop Baxter chose Trinity Episcopal Church in Williamsport, Pennsylvania to be his Minster Church. A Minster Church is the symbol and center of the Bishop's pastoral, liturgical, and teaching ministry in the northern part of his diocese. The welcoming took place on November 5, 2006 at Trinity. The ceremony was attended by about 235 people and consisted of ministers of various denominations, city officials and parishioners from northern Episcopal churches. Following his welcoming to the north, Bishop Baxter delivered a Homily. The remainder of the evening included a parishioner giving Bishop Baxter a handcrafted wooden cross as a welcoming to his Minster Church, an Evensong sung by a choir made up from several Episcopal Churches, and a supper. |
