DIOCESE OF KANSAS

The Diocese of  Kansas web pages: http://www.episcopal-ks.org

The Bishop of Kansas: The Rt. Rev. Dean E. Wolfe, dwolfe@episcopal-ks.org.

The Diocese of Kansas representative to GEMN:

        Dr. Michael Doudoroff

Companion Diocese:  Venezuela

Each North American diocese has hosted visitors from Venezuela. A Venezuelan youth participation in camp and youth mission projects was anticipated but because of political uncertainties, our visitors were unable to obtain visas.  One young adult did make a visit after the camp and conference had been completed. 

Missionaries from the Diocese of   Kansas:

The Kansas volunteer in the Young Adult Service Corp who served in Venezuela has now returned and is a student at Seabury Western Episcopal Seminary .  His presence while in Venezuela and his correspondence improved communications and assisted the Diocese of Kansas to participate more effectively.

Missionaries to the Diocese of   Kansas:

Bishop Guerrero visited the Diocese twice in 2003/2004.  Venezuelan Youth participated in camp and youth mission projects.

The new Archbishop of Uganda invited a priest from Kansas to join his staff as coordinator of Anglican relations. His request stemmed from a long-term relationship between the Archbishop's former diocese and the congregation where the priest had served on the staff.  With the formation of a new mission society, she was able to raise the necessary funds and support.  Her replacement on staff is the former executive director of SAMS/USA.
