Bishops arrive at historic Christ Church in Philadelphia, where the Episcopal Church's first presiding bishop was chosen in
1789, to elect a new presiding bishop. The bishops, transported by bus to the church where they were sequestered, needed only
three ballots to elect Frank Griswold of Chicago. (Episcopal News Service photo by Dick Snyder)
