EXPLANATION
A bishop is someone who is a pastoral leader and administrator in church communities which have a strong structural element (such as Anglican, Catholic and Orthodox). A bishop is in charge of a definite area called a diocese. All members of the church in a diocese and all its institutions (e.g., schools and hospitals) are under the bishop’s authority in most church-related matters.
The background to the sign on the left is an outdated practice in the past, when people used to kiss the ring worn by the bishop as a symbol of his role as a leader.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1590761828379{margin-top: 0px !important;padding-top: 20px !important;padding-right: 20px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;padding-left: 20px !important;background-color: #f7f7f7 !important;}” el_class=”template-3-layout-2″][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]DISTRIBUTION
