Kentucky diocese elects Terry Allen White as bishop

>By Pat McCaughan

[Episcopal News Service] The Very Rev. Terry Allen White was elected
June 5 as the eighth bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Kentucky,
pending the required consents from a majority of bishops with
jurisdiction and standing committees of the Episcopal Church.

White, 50, dean of Grace and Holy Trinity Cathedral in Kansas City in
the Episcopal Diocese of West Missouri since 2004, was elected on the
second ballot out of a field of four nominees.

He received 40 of 76 votes cast in the lay order and 35 of 56 votes
cast in the clergy order at a special electing convention at Christ
Church Episcopal Cathedral in Louisville.

Pending a successful consent process, White would succeed the Rt. Rev.
Edwin F. "Ted" Gulick, 61, who became bishop in 1994. In October 2008,
Gulick announced his intention to retire. The consecration is expected
to take place on Sept. 25 at the Galt House in Louisville.
