Two Sudans' Episcopal archbishop to step down in November

YEI (6 Feb.) Radio Tamazuj

The long-serving Primate in the Anglican Communion, Archbishop of the
Episcopal Church of Sudan and South Sudan Dr. Daniel Deng Bul, said he
will step down from his position in November this year.

Daniel Deng is the fourth Archbishop and Primate of the Episcopal
Church of Sudan and South Sudan since his enthronement on 20 April
2008.

Deng told a congregation at Emmanuel Diocese in Yei town on Sunday
that his tenure as archbishop will expire in November, saying the
church will elect a new archbishop to lead the Anglical Church in
South Sudan.

The religious leader further said he has done enough whether good or
bad things during his leadership.“I became an archbishop in 2008, and
its time for me to retire and leave the site for a new young
archbishop and primate for the Anglican Church," said Deng.

" I will retire and God’s willing, we will elect the new archbishop in
November this year. However, it is important to let you know as
Christians to pray for the next new archbishop,” he added.

Deng thanked members of the Episcopal Church for electing him as
archbishop for ten years."I feel it is important to notify you about
that we need to see that the Anglican Church is well governed, and we
have to see into it that it is governed by the right people,” said
Deng.
