His election as Bishop of Bath and Wells was confirmed on 4 March 2014〔(Diocese of Bath and Wells – Bishop's Synod address (24 March 2014) ) & (Welcome to Christ Church Winchester, 9 March 2014 ) (both accessed 4 April 2014)〕 and he was enthroned at Wells Cathedral on 7 June 2014.〔(Diocese of Bath and Wells – Bishops ) (Accessed 7 March 2014)〕 In his first interview after being installed as bishop, he spoke against same-sex marriage. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Peter Hancock」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
