Bishop’s Cross Award In 2008, Bishop Howard announced the creation of an award to be presented annually at our diocesan convention honoring those in the Episcopal Diocese of Florida who have given most generously of their God-given time, talent, or treasure toward the support, upbuilding, and strengthening of the life of the Diocese. The Bishop’s Cross Award is modeled on the pectoral cross worn by Bishop Howard. The Bishop’s Cross Award Committee is now receiving nominations for the 2023 recipients. Please state in 250 words or less the reasons you believe this individual should be a recipient of The Bishop’s Cross Award. The awards will be presented at the 2023 Diocesan Convention, both to lay and to clergy honorees. All written, typed or email nominations must be received by Aug. 15, 2023.
