Three Bishops, No Waiting?: Even with three bishops, when you have 85 confir-
mands and two receptions, the proceedings take up quite a bit of time.
No one minded, however, because this service of Confirmation was only
one highlight of a three-day Niobrara Convocation that drew 2,100 people
and also saw two baptisms, one marriage, 77 lay ministry commissionings
and one presbyteral ordination. Leading the laying-on-of-hands at
Confirmation are, from left, Bishop Harold Jones, first Native American
consecrated to the Episcopal Church episcopate; South Dakota Diocesan
Bishop Craig B. Anderson and Presiding Bishop Edmond L. Browning.
