On January 31st, 2026, an online conversation was held with leadership from The Episcopal Church, facilitated by the Rt. Rev. Mark Edington, to discuss issues facing the Episcopal Church today and how those realities intersect with the life and ministry of Episcopal communities in Europe.
The Rev. Johnathan Denson is the Convocation’s inaugural Ministry Fellow, a two-year fellowship position for a priest who is new to ministry in the Episcopal Church. The newly established position provides an opportunity for ta priest to be further formed for ordained ministry in the unique setting of the Convocation churches across Europe.
“It’s a great honor to take on this role, particularly to follow in the footsteps of Walter Baer, who has done the role with such distinction,” said the Venerable Michael Rusk, who received the mandate to be the new archdeacon of the Convocation of Episcopal Churches in Europe from Bishop Mark Edington in late January.
