New bishop of Cuba

The Metropolitan Council of Cuba has appointed the Rev. Griselda Delgado del Carpio as Co-adjutor Bishop of the Episcopal Church of Cuba.

Delgado was appointed after electoral synods failed to elect a successor to Bishop Miguel Tamayo Zaldivar, who is retiring.

In 1986, Delgado became one of the first two female Anglican priests to be ordained in the Cuban church. She is currently the rector of Santa Maria Virgen Church in Itabo, Matanzas province. –Marites N. Sison
