Presiding Bishop visits Charlotte Episcopal Church on Its Big Anniversary
[Jefferts] Schori presides over Episcopalians in 16 countries. She made her first visit to North Carolina, in part, to help St. Martin's celebrate its 125th anniversary, a century of it spent in the small building tucked between Seventh Street and Independence Park.
As Schori noted often in her sermon, St. Martin's has a long tradition of community involvement. It was home to the city's first Boys and Girls Scout troops. Today, its 750 members are active participants in a host of community affairs, from AIDS and HIV awareness to homelessness and affordable housing.

Now the PB “presides over Episcopalians in 16 countries”? And pray tell how many of her Episcopalians are found in “16 countries”? And the average Sunday attendance?
A new TEC PR offensive is unveiled.
