In the Bishop's Address to the 42nd Annual Convention of the Episcopal Diocese of Central Florida, Jan. 29, the Rt. Rev. John W. Howe announced his plan to retire in April 2012.

"I want to come directly to the point," Bishop Howe told the group gathered at St. George Church and La Hacienda Recreation Center, The Villages, Florida. "The final episode of Star Trek, Next Generation was entitled 'All Good Things...' with the unmistakably hidden clause, '...must come to an end.' I have come to the conclusion that we are nearing such a moment."

Bishop Howe called for the election of his successor, the Fourth Bishop of Central Florida, in a Special Convention to be held Nov. 19 at the Cathedral Church of St. Luke, Orlando.
