Chief Consecrator was Archbishop Darel Chase and co-consecrators were Bishop Lumanog and Bishop Corey Jenkins.

Bishop Lumanog was consecrated on 27 April 2019 according to the ordination rite from The Book of Common Prayer 1928 by the laying on of hands from bishops in the historic apostolic succession.

What Is Apostolic Succession?

Apostolic Succession means that bishops are the successors to the apostles and that their authority is derived from the apostles by an unbroken succession in the ministry. This authority is specifically derived through the laying on of hands for the ordination of bishops in lineal sequence from the apostles, through their performing the ministry of the apostles, and through their succession in episcopal sees traced back to the time of the first apostles of Jesus Christ.

The apostolic succession is continued in the bishops of the Anglican Church, who seek to “carry on the apostolic work of leading, supervising, and uniting the Church” (The Book of Common Prayer 1979, p. 510).
