English Bishops

English bishops are senior members of the Church of England, responsible for overseeing specific geographic areas called dioceses. They provide spiritual leadership, confirm church members, ordain priests, and support religious practices. Bishops also play a role in national church governance and represent the church in public matters. Their authority is rooted in historical traditions, and they work to ensure the church's teachings and activities align with both religious doctrine and community needs. Ultimately, they serve as leaders guiding their congregations and maintaining the church’s spiritual and organizational integrity.
