Plymouth: Statement from Bishop-elect Philip Moger about his installation


Source: Diocese of Plymouth

Southwark Auxiliary Bishop Philip Moger was due to be installed as Bishop of Plymouth on Saturday, 9 November, but has had to delay the event at short notice. Bishop-elect Philip Moger issued the following statement

"In the very last few days, concerns have been raised of a personal nature to which I must attend immediately. This will take a little time.

"I have therefore agreed with all directly concerned to delay my installation as the new Bishop of Plymouth until these processes have been completed.

"I sincerely regret this delay and offer my apologies to all who are disappointed and inconvenienced. However it is important that everything is properly in place and due process observed.

"While this process takes place no further comment will be made."
