The following four bishops have been nominated by the Order of Bishops for the office of Primate of The Anglican Church of Canada:

• The Most Reverend Christopher Harper
• The Most Reverend Greg Kerr-Wilson
• The Right Reverend David Lehmann
• The Right Reverend Riscylla Walsh-Shaw

Biographical information and photos of the nominees will be released on April 11, 2025. The election will be conducted on June 26, 2025, during the meeting of the General Synod.

The election of a new Primate is a profound moment of spiritual discernment in the life of our beloved Church. I invite your prayers for the Orders of Bishops, Clergy and Laity as they prepare for and engage in this discernment process. Please pray for those who will be nominated, their families and dioceses, and for the person who will be elected—whom God has already chosen to be our next Primate. And please do pray for Archbishop Anne Germond, our Acting Primate, as she steers us through the next few months.

The Ven. Alan Perry
General Secretary
