SKOWHEGAN – The newly consecrated Episcopal Bishop Stephen T. Lane will attend a joint service of Somerset County’s two parishes at 10 a.m. Sunday at the All Saints Episcopal Church, 169 Malbon’s Mill Road.

The service will include worshippers from St. Martin’s Episcopal Church in Palmyra and the Skowhegan parish. The Rev. Levering Sherman serves as rector for both congregations.

A luncheon will be served after the service.

Lane, 58, was ordained and consecrated as the bishop coadjutor of the Episcopal Diocese of Maine earlier this month in Portland. He was overwhelmingly elected in October at the diocesan convention in Bangor to succeed the Right Rev. Chilton Knudsen in September when she retires.

Work began earlier this month to rebuild St. Martin’s church, a Route 2 landmark for many years, that was destroyed by fire two years ago. Since then, parishioners have been holding services in the parish hall.

The two congregations also will hold a joint service at 10 a.m. Sunday, June 29, at St. Martin’s, 900 Main St., Palmyra in the parish hall.
