“While the Rev. Lloyd Winter served on the staff of the Bishop, it was I who was lead deeper into the meaning of servanthood because of his ministry," said Bishop Daniel. "Over the past three years, I witnessed a heart centered in Jesus Christ. Father Lloyd had a ready smile, a keen intellect, detailed administrative gifts and an infectious love of Jesus. He cared deeply about the Episcopal Church, retired clergy and his peers in this diocese. The entire Diocese of Pennsylvania was uplifted and encouraged by his ministry. We will miss him, and we rejoice as he continues to serve seated at the feet of our Lord. Well done, faithful servant, well done.” More details.
