Tribute to Bishop Manasseh

Bishop Manasseh Binyi Dawidi steps down as Bishop of the Diocese of Kajo Keji in southern Sudan at a time when his diocese has formed significant bonds within the Anglican Communion, finally able to establish itself in its homeland. Like Moses, Manasseh has led his people through the wilderness.

"They tell me that the war has driven the lions out of your tall grass to safety in other countries," Bishop Paul Marshall said during the sermon he preached during a January 2005 mission trip when invited to ordain 34 deacons and three priests, "But I tell you that there is still one lion in Kajo Keji. He is your bishop."
