The Diocese of Edinburgh has announced the appointment of a new post of Bishop’s Enabler of Mission. The Rev Annie Naish will take up the post in late September and the diocese plans to commission her formally at its autumn Synod on 3 November. Annie has been Missioner to the Lee Abbey Movement since 2011. She was ordained in Norwich Diocese and following her curacy there she served as Ecumenical Mission Enabler in Bath & Wells.
The Rt Rev Dr John Armes, Bishop of Edinburgh says “The appointment of a Mission Enabler is a key part of our mission strategy for the diocese and a vital support to me as a leader in mission. Annie brings both relevant experience and personal gifts to this exciting task. She will work with congregations and equip others to do so as we respond to the call to share God’s mission in the places we serve. I am very much looking forward to welcoming Annie back to the city of her birth and working with her in the service of Christ.”
