The Right Rev Kevin Pearson has announced today that he will retire as Bishop of Glasgow and Galloway on 31 August 2024.
Bishop Kevin became the 15th Bishop of Glasgow and Galloway in July 2020 upon his translation from the Diocese of Argyll and The Isles.
Announcing his retirement to the Glasgow and Galloway Diocesan Synod today, Bishop Kevin said:
“It has been a joy and a privilege to serve God through the Scottish Episcopal Church. I believe that our S.E.C. has something very special to offer Scotland. Our motto is more relevant today than ever – Evangelical Truth, the search for God through scripture and thought – and Apostolic Order – the experience of God through liturgy and worship, making God’s presence real.
“All of which leads to our congregations being able to say together – here we have an experience of the living God. This is our message of hope and promise.”
