On June 13, 2014, then
Father General of the Missionary Society of St. John, Bishop Frederick Fick,
announced his retirement (see blog post of June 13 below).
As per the Canons and Rule, Father
General Fick named Fr. Robert Lemmon (Pastor of Christ the King Anglican Church
– Liberty, KY) as Father General Coadjutor. Fr. Bob has since served in that
capacity awaiting his confirmation as the new Father General at the October MSJ
assembly.
Since being named Father General
Coadjutor, Fr. Bob has visited all MSJ Chapters, shared his vision and prayerfully
sought the consul of all MSJ members and spiritual advisors.
On October 16, gathered together, under the guidance of the Holy
Spirit, Fr. Bob was confirmed by the MSJ body.
It seemed good to the Holy Spirit and to
us (Acts 15:28).
