The Rev. Dr. Sally French

New Bishop for N.J. Diocese

A diocesan convention Jan. 28 elected the Rev. Canon Dr. Sally French to serve as 13th bishop of the Diocese of New Jersey. She will be consecrated and installed June 24, succeeding Bishop William H. “Chip” Stokes, who is retiring.

Dr. French is now Canon for Regional Ministry and Collaborative Innovation for the Diocese of North Carolina. Prior to joining diocesan staff, she spent 20 years in parish ministry.
