[Christianity Today UK] 2 Sep 2008--The man in charge of one of the country’s best loved landmarks and the cradle of Christianity in Wales was today elected as the new Bishop of St Davids.

The Dean of St Davids Cathedral, the Very Reverend John Wyn Evans, was elected as the 128th bishop of the diocese by the Electoral College of the Church in Wales, at a “lock in" meeting at the cathedral on Monday.

The election took place following the resignation of the former bishop, Rt Rev Carl Cooper in May amid speculation of an improper relationship with his chaplain.
