[Episcopal Diocese of Litoral Ecuador] The Episcopal Diocese of Litoral Ecuador has started a process of systematic search and nomination for a new bishop.

We have undertaken the task assigned to us with faith, prayer, partnership and teamwork as well as the grave responsibility of a transparent process. It gives us the confidence to present a profile of a bishop for the Litoral Diocese to our brothers and sisters all over the world where we the Episcopalians profess the faith in our Lord Jesus Christ in the fellowship of the Anglican Communion.

This text presents our first steps in the pastoral life, the spiritual development of a community that always expresses its unity, solidarity, generosity and readiness for service of our brothers and sisters, laypeople, bishops, priests and deacons, towards the people of God, to whom we love in the Lord.

Thus, we cordially welcome to those who receive this profile for the search of a new diocesan bishop, always remembering the Apostle Paul’s words to the Corinthians: “For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus’ sake.” (2 Corinthians 4:5).

May God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, bless and save us. Amen.
