Frank Lyons
Francis R. Lyons (born 1954) is an American-born Anglican bishop who has been a missionary in South America. From 2001 to 2012, he was bishop of Bolivia. In 2012, he was appointed assistant bishop in the Anglican Diocese of Pittsburgh. ==Early life, education, and career==
Lyons was born in Maryland raised in an Episcopal parish near Potomac, Maryland. At 17, he discerned a calling to serve as a bishop, based on 1 Timothy 3:1.〔〔"()f a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work." 1 Tim. 3:1, KJV〕 Lyons attended Wheaton College for both bachelor and master degrees. It was there that he met his future wife, Shawnee. He attended seminary at Nashotah House, and after graduation unsuccessfully sought ordination in the Episcopal Diocese of Washington. Why Lyons' pursuit of ordination there was refused is a matter of controversy.〔 Lyons was ordained in 1980 in the Episcopal Church's extraprovincial jurisdiction in Ecuador, where he and his wife served as missionaries. They later served at churches in California, and then from 1993 to 2001 in Honduras. The Lyonses were supported by the Society of Anglican Missionaries and Senders.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://samsusa.org/users/frank-and-shawnee-lyons )〕
