You can read my analysis of
Bishop elections in the Episcopal Church are long, grinding affairs for all involved. Please pray for the candidates and their families. Pray for their current congregations, for whom this becomes a time of uncertainty. Pray for the Diocese of South Dakota. Pray for the Church.
Gracious Father, we pray for thy holy Catholic Church. Fill it with all truth, in all truth with all peace. Where it is corrupt, purify it; where it is in error, direct it; where in any thing it is amiss, reform it. Where it is right, strengthen it; where it is in want, provide for it; where it is divided, reunite it; for the sake of Jesus Christ thy Son our Savior. Amen.

"Pray for their current congregations, for whom this becomes a time of uncertainty." AHA!!! Thanks for saying this.
I pray for your discernment process. Of the four candidates it sounds like John Tarrant may be the best choice, while Douglas Dunn would be an absolute nightmare. I'm afraid we in South Carolina got the last conservative Bishop in TEC, hopefully yours will turn out well.
