Title
The Faithful Accompany Their New Bishop Home
Description
Members of the congregation, clergy, and supporters follow behind the bishops as the procession makes its way from Metropolitan-Duane United Methodist Church to the Church of the Beloved Disciple after Bishop Clement's consecration. Led by processional crosses, flowers, and banners, the gathering transformed the streets of Greenwich Village into an extension of the liturgy, expressing the Church of the Beloved Disciple's conviction that sacramental life belonged not only within church walls but also in the public witness of a community claiming its place in both the Church and the city.
