There’s a short announcement on the Forward in Faith website that announces that Bishop Ackerman will remain as president of Forward in Faith following his retirement.
From the site:
“Further to the announcement yesterday of his retirement as Bishop of Quincy, The Right Reverend Keith Ackerman SSC wishes to make it clear that he will be remaining in office as President of Forward in Faith North America. Indeed, it is his intention during his retirement to devote himself more fully than has been possible hitherto to this ministry.”
Bishop Ackerman announced his unexpected retirement effective tomorrow, earlier this week. Bishop Jefferts Schori released a statement offering prayers that Bishop Ackerman’s health would recover quickly.
