[VirtueOnline] 15 Dec 2008--The skeletal remains of four Episcopal dioceses are vigorously working to reconstitute themselves and to rebuild the infrastructure of their former dioceses following the departure of the majority of the parishes to the Province of the Southern Cone.
The Presiding Bishop, Katharine Jefferts Schori, has appointed the Venerable Richard Cluett as pastoral assistant to reorganize the dioceses.
A vastly downsized Episcopal Diocese of Pittsburgh launched its reorganization this week calling a retired bishop from North Carolina to serve as its interim leader, according to newspaper reports.
The Rt. Rev. Robert Hodges Johnson, the retired Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Western North Carolina, has accepted the diocese's call to serve as Assisting Bishop of the Diocese of Pittsburgh. This is the second time since his retirement in 2004 that Johnson has stepped in to lead another diocese.
