Bishop LaBelle

As we in the Diocese of Olympia prepare to welcome The Rev. Dr. Philip N. LaBelle, Bishop-Elect, the Transition Committee invites all from across the diocese to offer gifts in support of his ministry. We are also aware that Bishop-Elect Phil’s ministry has touched many over the years and some have expressed interest in making a gift in relation to his upcoming ordination and consecration as the ninth Bishop of the Diocese of Olympia. It is the Episcopal Church’s tradition
