We give thanks for the installation of Bishop Jerome R. Cayangyang as the second Bishop of the Special Jurisdiction for the Armed Forces and Chaplaincy of the Anglican Church in North America (ACNA). Elected by the College of Bishops, he now provides episcopal oversight and pastoral care for more than 150 military and civilian chaplains serving across the Province.
With over 35 years of active and reserve military service, including combat deployments, Bishop Jay has faithfully ministered to service members and their families in seasons of deployment and crisis. His leadership reflects a deep commitment to preaching Christ and standing firm in the historic faith.
The Rt Revd Julian Dobbs, Dean of the Province of ACNA and an interim member of the Gafcon Primates’ Council, rejoiced at this new chapter. We pray that this vital missionary ministry will flourish under courageous and godly oversight, to the glory of God.
